Waterleaf Restaurant, located in College of DuPage's Culinary and Hospitality Center, is a dining experience that offers real-life training to Culinary Arts, Baking and Pastry Arts and Restaurant Management students.
Patrons can experience culinary and pastry students' creativity while enjoying a multi-course meal, utilizing fresh regional and seasonal ingredients. Attentive service is provided by service and sales students. Waterleaf hours vary.
Menus are released one at a time approximately two weeks before the meal dates. Reservations will be accepted through OpenTable only. For parties of 6 or more, please call Waterleaf directly at (630) 942-2284 and allow 24 hours for a callback. If you have any dietary restrictions, please note it on your reservation at time of booking. All menus will be posted at the start of the semester. Please note: we will no longer be e-mailing our diners the date and time when each of the reservations are opened.
