Matt Conroy

A Michelin-starred chef trained first in classical French and then Mexican cuisine, Matt’s passion is creating simple, modern dishes full of flavor using seasonal, high-quality local ingredients.

He moved from New York with his wife Isabel Coss (who just happens to be our pastry chef) to introduce DC to the neo-bistro movement taking over Paris, providing modern takes on French classics, rounded out by a carefully curated list of natural wines.

At Lutèce, you’ll see glimpses of his diverse culinary background, from the Oaxaca-inspired Duck Carnitas paired with Buckwheat Galettes à la Brittany to the perfectly prepared Parisian Gnocchi.
