Experience contemporary and exquisite dining on the Kendall College campus in a restaurant with extraordinary views of the city skyline. Culinary arts and hospitality management students prepare and serve dinner in this living classroom.
The Dining Room at Kendall College at National Louis University is committed to sustainability. The restaurant’s menu is seasonal and takes advantage of our very own herb and vegetable garden as well as fresh ingredients from the nearby Green City Market.
The Dining Room is open for dinner service. Restaurant reservations are strongly recommended as hours in The Dining Room may vary by school term and student/staff availability. The Dining Room’s reservation system is now with TOCK. We’ll no longer be taking reservations through OpenTable. In addition to online reservations, you can also call 312-261-3518.
Gratuities from The Dining Room go towards scholarships to Kendall College at NLU students in financial need. Contributions are tax-deductible as provided by law.
