Waterleaf Restaurant - Glen Ellyn (IL)

5 /5 Pete_J: An amazing experience all around. Joined the Waterleaf for dinner during the Regional American Cuisine - Spring 2025 semester. The restaurant is cozy but very comfortable. The service is limited so you dont feel shoehorned into the dining room. Instead, it lends itself to a relaxed enjoyable evening. The service was friendly and informative. If we had any questions about the menu our server was right there to answer them. The food was exceptional! I started with the Chicken Chile Colorado followed by the Arizona Chopped Salad and I selected the Pork Carne Adovoda. The food was AMAZING! Little sidebar about the online reservation system. It is set up to handle tables of 2 or 4. So, if you try to make a reservation for anything other than that it tends to respond that they are all booked up! If youre having trouble call the restaurant directly! Go enjoy and remember not only are you having a great night but you are also helping students take the next step in their career!

5 /5 J_: Wow! This was an amazing lunch. The salmon was absolutely perfect! The service was great from the moment we arrived until we left. I can’t wait to return! Also The restaurant is super clean.

5 /5 Justin Wagner: Fantastic Southwestern menu in April 2025. This is a College of DuPage student run fine dining establishment. Food menu changes every one to weeks. Consult the website for latest menu.

5 /5 J Pendowski: We attended a student end of term buffet (by invitation event for student families). The skill and creativity of the food and desserts was outstanding. Each item was described and presented in a professional manner. The dishes were delicious as well as being artfully displayed. Kudos to the Culinary program for an excellent event.

5 /5 Marian S: We enjoyed a a very nice dinner at Waterleaf restaurant on a Wednesday - international night which featured a menu of food from the Philippines. Everything was delicious and 3 of the courses featured a wine pairing. Great job COD students and staff!
