Only in Paris for a few days and looking for a nice restaurant with a view of the Eiffel Tower. Would like to keep the price range under $300 for two. Any suggestions would be appreciated.

$300 seriously? For that kind of money why don't you dine in the restaurant IN the Eiffel Tower?

Might be naive, but told that a nice restaurant is really expensive and we just wanted one special night!

The two I've heard mentioned are Les Ombres in the Quai Branly museum and Cafe de l'Homme, but I understand the latter is closed at the moment. Someonealso mentioned the bar at the Concorde Lafayette.

Diane, another vote for Les Ombres. I found the cafe almost by accident one day and had very nice lunch on the patio. Food was good and the location is fabulous, right at the base of the Eiffel Tower. I did not eat in the restaurant but I bet it would be a very nice, romantic spot. Check out their website for photos.

We had dinner at the Jules Verne Restaurant in the Eiffel Tower in 2010. It was spectacular, we were very glad we did it. I recommend you look at their website for the menu and pricing. www.lejulesverne-paris.com/
