Why You'll Love It

Just as its namesake is an interplay of shadow and light, La Silhouette comfortably blends the best of New American and French tradition. Executive Chef Matthew Tropeano updates the haute cuisine space with creative compositions, top-grade ingredients, and a certain je ne sais quoi.

Fresh-baked breads and crunchy bagel crisps welcome you to your table; well-composed desserts make you wish you didn’t have to leave. But it’s the entrées that have made La Silhouette such a welcome addition to the neighborhood.

Duck breast joins wine-poached figs, red quinoa, spiced honey, and Persian duck jus. Sea bass and lobster with a “risotto” of butternut squash and hazelnut takes decadence to delicious new places. We think you’ll agree: La Silhouette proves there are still plenty of discoveries to be made in the world of haute cuisine.
