Romantic but Casual Restaurant in the 8th

My husband and I will be in Paris for our anniversary later this month. I would appreciate recommendations for a restaurant in the 8th, something romantic, small, cozy, and informal. I have searched the forum--a lot of members recommended 1728, but from the pictures on their website, it looks a little too formal. We will not be packing ties or dress jackets. We would like to keep the dinner under 100e. Thanks for your help.

This price range is a tough one for that district but you might want to try l%26#39;Angle du Faubourg on rue du Faubourg St. Honore. It%26#39;s owned by the same shef/owner as Taillevent but less expensive and less formal. It is modern but also intimate.

Hello;

You may want to look at Fermette Marbeuf.

Here is their website (English Version)

Metro Franklin Roosevelt.

Casual smart dress will do it...intimate.

Thank you all for the translation. Is it customary to tip more? I have read that tipping more is considered arrogant.

|||

Thank you so much for all of your suggestions! I appeciate them immensely.

Craigmore:

Fermette Marbeuf. looks very interesting. How would you define %26quot;smart casual%26quot;? Wouldn%26#39;t want to show up dressed incorrectly.

Any info appreciated.

Merci.
