Soces is a seafood restaurant in Belleville, not far from the wonderful Parc des Buttes-Chaumont. Chef Marius de Ponfilly (ex-Clamato) is preparing gorgeous small plates with modest prices, alongside a few whole fish or and a handful of meaty options. There’s a strong selection of cheese, too. The room is beautiful. We really loved our first visit.
Soces has been included among our 50 favorite restaurants in Paris and our favorite spots for seafood.

OUR PHOTOS OF SOCES
We visited SOCES twice during our visit, once for lunch and once for dinner. It was fine but not great. I understand that the chef came from Clamato where we ended up eating four or five times…we much preferred it to SOCES.
We ate at Soces tonight. The meal was wonderful even with a new chef this weekend. The only negative was that after spending over 250E on dinner, we were asked if we would like to put additional money for tip on the card.. I have never been asked if I wanted to leave a tip EVER in Paris- esp after spending a fair amount of money…
