We read suggestions about having an overnight layover at CDG, ( we're arriving from Dubrovnik at 4:30 p.m.) and made reservations at the Sheridan IN the airport. We would like to take transport into Paris for dinner and would appreciate suggestions for locations/restaurants that would be easy to get to (after 3 weeks of travel, we'll be spent). Maybe near Notre Dame (just to walk around it), or other suggestions. Even though we'll be at the end of a long trip, we've got to take advantage of spending an evening and meal in Paris!

When are your travel plans? I only ask because Notre Dame is still wrapped in plywood fencing and scaffolding and doesn't open until Dec 8. So it may not hold as much interest for walking around it, as you might like with such a short amount of time in Paris.
Also, as you are on a time limitation, I would suggest downloading the G7 taxi app. That way you can immediately summons an official taxi to/from the hotel to dinner from wherever you are.

Thanks. We're traveling in mid October. We knew it wouldn't be open yet, but sounds like given the short time it might not be the best option.

Les Ombres atop the Musee Quai Branley (but not part of the museum) has a wonderful view of the ET through its roof. You could take a cab directly there, to return walk across the Pont d'Alma to the RER C station and take that to St. Michel and get the B back to the airport.
That is if you want a nice restaurant with a spectacular view. https://www.lesombres-restaurant.com
A more modest restaurant near Notre Dame is the https://rotisseriedargent.com/en/. Not cheap but a lot less formal and expensive than the Tour d'Argent.
