One fabulous restaurant we found last trip (by virtue of the fact that our flat was directly across the rue), was the very incredible Art Kitchen Studio. A rather tiny restaurant tucked away in the lovely Rue Du Tresor in the 4th, it's a gem, and well worth seeking out. Chef Virginie Guitard was a semi-finalist of Season 1 of French Masterchef.
The light wasn't great (outside at night), but you get the idea.

Louise, I'm putting this on my list. Less than 40 days until I go! So thrilled.
Since we'll only be in Paris for a few days, a hotel was cheaper. And since we included it with our airfare, it was actually less than simply buying plane tickets separately. That was like getting our hotel free!
Even in Aix en Provence, the price of the hotel was cheaper than renting an apartment. Plus, in Aix, most places chareged a 60 Euro cleaning fee at the end. At a hotel, I get the daily maid service without the cleaning charge at the end. Six nights for around 470 Euros.
If I went for a month or so, I'm sure the apartment would be less expensive. Thanks for the tip.
Just check it's still open Paulita. The website is still active, but there weren't any new reviews on trip advisor. I certainly hope it is. It was amazing, and incredible value.
I'm adding it to my Wishlist too as I plan my next trip to Paris in September.
You're making me hungry! That certainly is a bargain, which isn't always the case in France nowadays.
