$$$, Bistro, Louvre/Tuileries
Fodor's Review:
If you were to ask Parisian bankers, aristocrats, or antiques dealers to name their favorite bistro for a three-hour weekday lunch, many would choose Georges. The traditional fare, described in authentically indecipherable handwriting, is good -- chicken-liver terrine, curly endive salad with bacon and a poached egg, steak with béarnaise -- and the atmosphere is better, compensating for the rather steep prices. In the dining room, a white-clothed stretch of tables lines the mirrored walls; attentive waiters sweep efficiently up and down. Order one of the wines indicated in colored ink on the menu and you can drink as much or as little of it as you want (and be charged accordingly); there's also a separate wine list that has grander bottles.
