I picked my first meal in Paris in Rick Steve's Europe book http://www.ricksteves.com: cheap but good was the comment. It was cheap and disgestible, let's say. And the water was as expensive as the meal! (But then I learnt to buy my bottle in a corner store, AFTER the meal.)
To rate what I mean by digestible, let's say that's what I think about most American fast food restaurants.
The place was Comptoir du 7e, on rue de la Motte Picquet, in the 7th district.
A much better bet, when you are in the area is rue Cler itself! Tarte Julie is amazing, though their prices double when you sit in (and it's not much of a service, when you can just sit in a pack outside, with your slice of quiche and your slice of pie!)... Yes, so they specialize in quiches and pies, and the ones I randomly tried were amazing.
There is also a multitude of small sandwich and crepe shops on the street. No need to sit in an annoying below expectations restaurant.
Pros:
Cons:
Details: Close to subway station, Invalides station, I think. don't have it
