I can second this one. Very tasty.
For a good Eiffel Tower view, look at 6 New York.
Also, one of our best experiences was a walking food tour through Paris by Mouth. Different types of tours in several areas are available. It could be a wine, bread, cheese, and charcuterie tour...a wine tasting tour...or a chocolate. Next time we go back we'll do a couple of these.
General Paris recommendations:
1. Plan your day around staying in a particular area. You don't want to have to cross town several times in one day. We would have breakfast, go visit a certain area, and maybe come back to the room before dinner.
2. Do dinner reservations later in the evening. For sure after 7 PM, preferably a little later.
3. Do guided tours for museums if they are your thing. The Louvre is massive and overwhelming for first timers.
4. Arrange ahead of time to be picked up by a chaffeur from the airport. This will only cost ~25 euros over a cab, and is worth every penny.
5. Uber and Lyft don't work as well in Paris as in the US. Have G7 Taxi on your phone.
6. If traveling outside of Paris and using trains, its a beast getting luggage on and off. Pack light.
7. To repeat number 6...especially if traveling outside of Paris pack light.
