Not too expensive restaurants in Paris:

It all depends upon one's definition of expensive...

I would recommend:
Ferme St. Simon (Left Bank)
Cote Seine (Small bistro on Left Bank)

In London try the Ark in Palace Gardens Terrace, about two blocks from the Notting Hill Gate tube station.

In Paris try Le Relais De L'Isle at 37 rue St. Louis en L'Isle.  It's on the Isle St. Louis.  Closest metro is Pont-Marie. James K. Barrentine Information Partners 2697 Euclid Heights Blvd.  Suite 3 Cleveland, OH  44106 Voice: 216-371-2415  Fax: 216-932-4980 email: [email removed]

If you're not trying to do the haute cuisine thing and aren't trying to have the "ultimate gastronomic experience", whatever that is, a friend of mine from Paris who worked his way through school as a taxi driver took me to Au Pied de Cochon the last time we were there together, and I've gone back since.  Popular but not a tourist trap.  Not cheap but not too expensive.  The fresh seafood platters are spectacular but can range to the fairly expensive.  The pied de cochon -- pork hocks or "trotters" are a specialty.  And the profiteroles are the real thing.
