I was in Paris working for a week about a month ago. I really liked:
L'Assiette Lyonnaise 21, Rue Marbeuf 75008 Paris Tel. : +(33) 1 47 20 94 80
Decent, traditional French food at a very reasonable price, especially when you consider it is just off the Champs Elysees. Also, the service was friendly and the house wine was fairly decent. There was lots of choice on the set menu.
OK, it's not the poshest restaurant in the world, but it just didn't feel like a tourist trap and the food was good.
My other advice would be to just wander around as much as you can - take a map with you but get yourself lost in Paris, you'll find lots of wonderful little places you'd have never seen otherwise, then use the map to find your way back home.
Also, remember that you can often take an RER train, rather than a Metro train, and it will be much faster (provided it stops at your stop!).
Le Grand Arche at La Defense is worth a look - stunning building, stunning views down to the Arc de Triomphe.
Have fun!
