Dinner Reservation for Next Week in Paris

[magellica]

I finally got my husband to agree to a babysitter last night and therefore can spend one evening in Paris sans children. However, I'm reserving late, so I need your help.

What is the nicest place I'm likely to get reservations at this late for a Wednesday night? Price is pretty much no object, but if the suggestion is under 100 E per person, my husband would be happier. More than that would require more convincing (so links to food p*rn or reviews would be appreciated.

We're staying on the border of the 6th and 7th, and I'd like a place that would take less than 15 minutes to get to from there.

I searched, but could only find similar posts for Monday night (not as many restaurants open) or for social people (not romantic foodie dinners), so I apologize if this question has been asked before.

Chez L'Ami Jean is a great suggestion, but I was thinking of getting a to go order from there with the kids, and picnic somewhere. Since that would allow me to have 2 very good meals. So an alternative suggestion would be welcomed.

Additionally, I think I'd like somewhere quieter, if at all possible.

Splurge and go to l'Arpege, or try Josephine Chez Dumonet.

I didn't realize CAJ did take out. Is this really possible?

Not certain how a lot of the food will travel though - it isn't common and I have not heard many reports of people doing it (urban myth?). To me the attraction of the place is the full package, the food, the ambiance etc etc.

im going to be staying in the 7th arr in june

bear in mind i have not been to any of these places but they were suggestions from the board - and i did a fair amount of research

Violon d'Ingres maybe can get reservations there
Chez Jean 'Ami - not sure if romantic enough
Le Florimond

Those were all places that i looked at i went with chez jean ami, however not sure if you can reso in that time frame - i think all are under 100 per person not counting drinks

im sure others can help more than me :)

My 1st reply disappeared, only to reappear later, after I rewrote and resent a simlar post.
So I asked the hardworking mods to delete one of them. They worked so hard they deleted both.

Try Chez l'ami Jean.
