Tournesol

French restaurant · Long Island City

@infatuation

"Tournesol has been open for a couple of decades, but it would take us a couple more to tire of coming here. This dark bistro serves dishes like duck liver terrine and moules frites at relatively affordable prices—compared to much of the other fancy French food around town. You’ll get your white tablecloths and fine wine, but it’s totally unstuffy, with a lively crowd of regulars spilling out onto the outdoor tables. We especially like the croquettes and escargots, both of which are under $15. " - neha talreja, bryan kim, hannah albertine, sonal shah, molly fitzpatrick
