The Bistro At La Tourelle - Ithaca

Great food but the restaurant needs a little sprucing up. I loved eating there. Price per person: $20–30 Food: 5 Service: 5 Atmosphere: 3

I recently was on a bus trip and we stopped for lunch. As a group we had placed our food orders ahead of time. A few days before the trip I had to restrict my diet which ruled out just about everything there was to eat! However Jessica Wiggins could not have been more understanding and accommodating, she made every effort to make sure all my dietary needs were met, she didn’t make it awkward for me and I loved my lunch. Thank you Jessica!! Service: Dine in Meal type: Lunch Food: 5 Service: 5 Atmosphere: 5

Absolutely fantastic service at the Bistro! Our waitress was attentive, kind, and gave us great recommendations. Breakfast was a delicious classic style. I had the avocado toast with a bottomless cup of coffee. My partner did the classic breakfast combo with a Bellini. Everything was tasty and as expected. The building itself is full of charm and character. I would gladly go back. Service: Dine in Meal type: Breakfast Price per person: $20–30 Food: 5 Service: 5 Atmosphere: 5

We are puzzled as to how this restaurant has earned a reputation as one of the best in the area! During our visit, we found that at least three items on the limited menu were no longer available, even though the restaurant was nearly empty. The food quality was disappointing: the meats were overcooked, and some menu items were missing from our dishes. We recommend steering clear of this place!

The food is outstanding, and the atmosphere is delightful. The high-quality dishes are served in a charming French countryside setting. The service is excellent as well.
