Breizh Cafe
One of my favorite restaurants to take visitors in Paris is Breizh Cafe. It captures all the best and quintessential French qualities in one place.

They’re open on the weekend (but closed Monday and Tuesday) and the service is quite friendly (both rare finds in Paris!).
Tartes Kluger
Tartes Kluger has been on my restaurant list for quite some time. I first read about it in Le Fooding, a French publication about restaurants and food. The food’s concept: simple and organic, and the restaurant’s atmosphere: casual with communal tables and take away, struck me more as New York Sunday brunch than Paris, that I was intrigued. This place indeed oozes more American with its minimal wooden decor and cluster of food magazines, but the Parisian staff and ingredients along with a view of the tiny rue du Forez keeps this place grounded in France.
