I emailed them as it will be in my neighborhood come September...this is what I received:

Hello ,

All restaurants LE SOLEIL are in opération. I just gave the opportunity to one of my friends, a very good old Chef who was coming back to Paris,to take care of my SOLEIL at 153 rue de Grenelle. We thought it wise to change the name to “153” and adapt the décor to his own cooking and way of seeing things.

I trust he is in position to make you very happy if you visit us there. Otherwise, the other SOLEIL is still

shining at the flea market . I will also be happy to welcome you there.
