If you were planning on having dinner at Soco in Brooklyn, make other plans. The New York City eatery owned by Marc Daly, the ex-husband of Real Housewives of Atlanta star Kenya Moore, has closed its doors for good.
Marc quietly shut down the business at the end of 2024, rebranding the restaurant’s Instagram profile to a new entity called “Pulse Media.” Find out the full details on what we know about Marc’s next move.

Although Marc confirmed his restaurant’s closure last year on Instagram, The Sun just went the extra mile to report on the news by publishing photos of the shuttered restaurant. The former location of the business has bright orange “For Lease” signs plastered on every single window.
The closure of Soco appears to be related to Marc’s dire financial situation. Last year, we learned he was facing eviction from his Brooklyn apartment and owed nearly $10,000 in unpaid rent on various properties. According to his Instagram page, he’s now leaving Brooklyn altogether.
Marc wrote, “Goodbye, Brooklyn. You will always be my hometown!”
“It is with a full heart that I announce the closure of Soco,” he continued. “After 15 years of serving our wonderful community, it’s time for me to explore a new adventure in media, so I move onward and upward.”
In Marc’s farewell post to Brooklyn and the restaurant he operated for 15 years, he said he was looking forward to his “new venture in the South.” In another post, he hinted at an upcoming coffee business he’s bringing to Atlanta.
With Marc seemingly in Atlanta, co-parenting with Kenya is about to get a little easier. He has to pay her $2,000 in child support every month, so he might as well be a little closer to her, too.
