My spouse and I will be in Paris on our anniversary, October 10. I'm looking for restaurant recommendations in the medium price range. Ideas?
And what would medium be exactly? This is Paris where you can spend 100 Euros just for an entree or have a entire meal for 30.
Hi! Is it possible to give us an arrondissement that you are staying in? If it does not matter let us know.
Les Ombres---Les Ombres is in the 7th arrondissement. In your budget, too. You can take a taxi or the Metro to get there. Right next to Museum Quai Branly.
It's very popular and has a nice view of the Eiffel Tower, to boot.
Plus, the food is very good value for the money:

If you do not speak French, you can reserve on TripAdvisor or TheFork.
Medium= $100-300.
We are staying near the Cluny Museum. I can't tell if it is 5th or 6th Arrondissement.
We were just here Friday night, thanks to janettravels'recommendation, and we too recommend it highly. It's small, chef owned and you may still be able to make reservation: l'Initial at 9, rue de Bievre in the 5th.
Thanks Janet!
We went to La Tour d'Argent for lunch for an anniversary and loved it:

We have also done Les Ombres for another celebratory meal also for lunch but I don't think there dinner is that much more.
We recently went to L'Initial in the 5th near the river where we had a magnificent meal for 48 Euro for 7 courses (and in addition were nibbles when we arrived and mignardises at the end. It was a really fine meal; a pleasant but not fancy room. both Les Ombres and Tour d'Argent have amazing views.
Our favorite for special occasions: http://pottoka.fr/pottoka-paris/
le chalet on rue de la pompe is traditional, in a posh district, and delish
there's also café de la gare which was formerly a metro station and has a really nice garden!
also café guitry in theatre edouard vii is a great place to eat and see a show with english subtitles after!
Le Coupe Chou
It won't get much more romantic than this. I actually just reserved a table for later in October.
If someone went to Le Tour d'Argent and did not love it, that would be a problem. Tres etoiles en Guide Michelin.
Years ago, we went to Le Piet au Cochon at 3 AM, where we ate with Russian sailors. It is in Les Halles.
Cafe Panis - across the river from Notre Dame, is just a cafe.
It isn't extraordinary at all, except if you are lucky enough to get a window seat.
Mostly serving quiches and salads and inexpensive plats du jour.
