Restaurant recommendations in Paris
Bouillon Chartier
This restaurant opened in 1896, and is one of the rare to have stayed as it was back in the days. Although it is now a very touristic restaurant, I would recommend going. The prices are very cheap, for good french food. It is a kind of busy cantine with a live athmospher, not a restaurant for a romanic night.
This restaurant is also very busy, I will recommend going for an early luch (11.30AM) or early Dinner (6.30PM) if not you might wait more than an hour.

This restaurant is also very busy, I will recommend going for an early luch (11.30AM) or early Dinner (6.30PM) if not you might wait more than an hour.

Pink Mamma
This is a good Italian restaurant on 4 floors, very trendy and modern in an incredible location. The restaurant itself is a pretty place to visit, the prices are good for the quality. It is also very busy, I would recommend going for the opening or booking online.

Bofinger
This restaurant opened in 1864, close to the Place des Vosges and the Place de la Bastille, the Brasserie Bofinger is considered the "most beautiful brewery in Paris". In the heart of Paris 4, in a Belle Epoque decor, come and discover the finesse and quality of a typical Alsatian meal. The prices are a bit more expensive than the previous suggestions. I would recommend making a reservation by phone.

La Fresque
La Fresque is a typical French restaurant that offers excellent value for money ia a friendly and relaxed environment near the forum des halles in the center of Paris. You will find a good selection of french food, I would recommend if for luch, not diner, but it ofter crowded.

Cristal Room
If you are looking for a chic, romantic and calm place to celebrate something important, the Crystal Room is the place to be.
This restaurant, located in the 16th District, was completely renewed in 2017 and has reopened its doors thus offering you high-quality dishes in a modern and elegant atmosphere.
The key of their success. The concept of sophisticated dishes at reasonable prices. You will feel like having diner in the Versailles Palace.. I have been called there to shoot wedding proposals. You need to book in advance.
