Located about 2 blocks west of the Dupont subway station, Bistro Tournesol offers French Bistro classics with some modern twists. They're also just around the corner from the Tarragon Theatre, so you might want to stop in, relax in the padded Italian ladder-back dining chairs and enjoy a glass from their carefully-chosen wine menu before catching a show.more...See more text
Well this is my area and I ate there once and from what I remember,it was good. I came back with a friend and I think we came in at 9:45 or something, and it was busy. We wanted to order and the waiter tells us "oh the kitchen is closed" This is after sitting us down by the way. We said what?? Its hardly late... then a fellow patron eating dinner there said to the waiter, "Your actually going to turn them away.."
So never again, did I step foot in there. That was about 5 years ago. It may have changed since but I guess after being shunned like that and unreasonable, I mean here we were business ,ka ching! it just put me off. And its a shame because another nearby restaurant of our neighborhood gets our business regularly. We believe in supporting neighborhood restaurants but that was just ridiculous..
