40 Best American Restaurants in Naperville

“Went last night reserved a party of 6 but another friend showed up and Anthony the owner accommodated us. We ordered half the menu including the star of the show being the tomahawk steak. We shared all items buffet style sampling all dishes. Everything was excellent and everyone in the party was thoroughly impressed!“

“The In home Brew on selection is awesome! The food is absolutely amazing. The energy and vibe is extremely chill. Pet friendly, dogs are welcome.. And a very friendly environment. I would most definitely recommend this location to others.“

“My sister and I each live about 40 mins from a Cracker Barrell and meet there about every three months to catch up. Love the food! Recently had the Wednesday special Chicken and broccoli which was fabulous! Waitresses always nice and patient as we catch up. And when we’re done eating there are always purchases to be made in the store, so much to look at!! It’s always a good afternoon. Thanks Cracker Barrel!“

“Just a shout out to the BEST waitress at the Naperville location, AUTUMN! Every time we come in, we hope we get seated in her section. Autumn’s energy is awesome! She never rushes us during our friend catch up time. She is so attentive without hovering and just a great person all around! Naper location is lucky 🍀 to have her on their team! Thanks for taking good care of us everyone we come in, Autumn! 🫶💯“

“A really great place! Our server Sam was very personable. We were there during lunch and there weren’t very many people there. The Rueben Sandwich was exceptional. My wife had the Cheeseburger which was also great.“

“Very great all around! We will be back again!“

“I would give this place 100 stars if able! I had to plan a rehearsal luncheon for my son's wedding in Joliet in mid May with only 2 months notice. Since we live in North Carolina, I had to do all the research online. Thank heaven I came across SixtyFour Reserve Room in a Google search. The manager, Andrew, contacted me right away and was so helpful in making suggestions for our event. Cheryl, the events manager, took over in finalizing all the arrangements. There are so many different options for appetizers, meal combinations, wine, cocktails and beer! Our guests were able to choose their favorites ahead of time. When we arrived on the day of the event, we were so delighted by the venue! Everything I had requested was in place, and Cheryl and our amazing server/bartender, Alex, immediately greeted us and made everyone feel welcome. The appetizers and meals were served efficiently and right on the timeline I had planned. The food was incredibly delicious with a pleasing presentation. Our guests had so much fun with the Wine Stations, and the whiskey lovers appreciated the variety of choices. Everyone raved about how much they enjoyed the food, drink and ambiance. Best of all, I was able to relax and enjoy our guests since all the work was done by Andrew, Cheryl, Alex and the kitchen staff. The cost was very reasonable, especially so close to Chicago. Highly recommended!“

“For everything ,nice people“

“Good place still even though I’m seeing changes …. They’re getting stingy with their French fries portions.“

“Amazing bar with wonderful daily specials! Great drink selection. Good prices too. Packed bar but also not overly crowded as it is a large location with ample seeting.“

“1 wheelchair spot at the Middle Table on the Patio for Outdoor Dining. CALL AHEAD TO RESERVE.“

“Great service by the our waitress and manager. We were highly impressed with the manager's attention to detail in changing a white napkin to a black one to avoid getting lent on my black pants. The Spicy Margarita was delicious as was the Spinach Appetizer. One minor hiccup was a dirty glass and silverware, which the staff exchanged out. For the inconvenience we received a credit for our appetizer. Definitely will be back.“

“Best food i have ever had, the 8 Oz sirloin steak melted in your mouth, the roasted bone marrow was perfectly exquisite, and then came out the sticky toffe pudding 👌 5 stars, only bad thing, finding parking if you have a reservation go with plenty of time to find parking.“

“Rosies moved to their new location and changed menu items. I use to go for the sausage gravy, but would you know they changed the sausage gravy and biscuits!!! It's not as good as before at all. The sausage were cut into tiny pieces instead of crumbled sausage. The biscuits were to big for the little gravy given. It was good while it lasted!!!!“

“Excelente lugar para disfrutar una buena comida, excelente atención al cliente y buen precio !!“

“Tried Tapville in Naperville and overall had a really good experience. The burger was juicy and flavorful without being overly greasy, and the chicken sandwich had a nice crispy texture with solid seasoning. The street tacos were probably my favorite — fresh, packed with flavor, and paired really well with the elote, which had the perfect balance of creamy, cheesy, and smoky.

Drink-wise, the margarita flight was a fun option if you like trying different flavors, and the sangria was refreshing and not overly sweet. The atmosphere was upbeat and modern, making it a great spot to hang out, watch a game, or grab dinner with friends.

Definitely worth checking out if you’re in the Naperville area and want good food with a social vibe.“

“We ate here twice on our trip! It is a delightful place, great food, chef visits and brings food to the table, the wait staff are so lovely. It’s a perfect restaurant! Thank you (We are visiting from California)“

“Best food I ever try !!! I love this place everything taste fresh. The homemade coffee cake is incredible.“

“We had our company Christmas party here last week and I can't say enough good things about them! Everything ran so smoothly and ALL of the food was delicious! I still have people raving about it!! Special thanks goes out to Sandra & Eva for all of their help throughout the event! You handled the group well and kept everyone happy! From the crew at Reliable Home Improvement we appreciate you and can't wait to come back!“

“The filet mignon 12 oz was great and the old fashion flight,our server Patrick was top notch really enjoyed everything.“

“Atención excelente y la música 🎶 de piano 🎹 muy bonita.“

“Great dessert place! Love the concept!“

“Great place for a party or to just get together with friends!! Definitely going back!“

“Great atmosphere, staff and dessert“

“This place has become my home away from home! When I walked in tonight James and Seana (The Owners) both said “Hey, Karrie! Welcome back! How was your day? ” I just love that! If you are ever in the area, check them out! I know I’ll be back in 2 weeks when I’m here again! Amazing customer service! ❤️❤️“

“The decor is STUNNING and there are 2 tables large enough for big groups. I really loved the ambiance and decor. The menu had a lot of reasonably priced options for food as well. 4 stars because one of our old fashioneds was served with a vibrant red cherry that had a pit in it. So it wasn’t the usual luxardo cherry that I am used to having.
I also love that there is an overwalk that connects you to Santo Cielo.“

“great service & great food!“

“My water broke in the arcade and our server Patrick immediately rushed to my side and started breathing exercises with me. He held my hand as the labor pains racked through me, and afterwards he mopped my brow with a damp paper towel and offered me tequila shots.

Evan Patrick Carlson was born January 3rd, 2026 and it's all thanks to Patrick's stellar skills as server, midwife, and bartender.

Also the Asian ginger quesadilla is pretty darn good“

“french toast or waffle the best I have ever had“

“Good Burgers and great homemade onion rings“

“Once a week! Love it! Great food, Great drinks. Great staff!“

“La comida muy rica la atención muy rápida el personal muy amable“

“This little Browns Chicken has the Best people running it. Great customer service is what makes it Special. We drive across town just because of the way we are treated thru the drive through. The Chicken is crispy and fresh and golden brown. There ranch taste homemade. The lady at the window or man are always so nice it's our go to Chicken hut.“

“I hosted a St. Patrick's Day pub crawl this past weekend, and Hizemans was our second stop.... They absolutely delivered!
Even with the busy traffic they were already handling, Hizemans had no trouble accommodating our group of 50. Their bar service was the fastest I've ever seen, and impressively, it was all thanks to just one person behind the bar — huge shoutout to bartender Max, you were amazing! A special thank you to GM Tony, who was incredibly kind to our entire group, communicated thoroughly with me at the event, and made sure we were well taken care of from start to finish. And the food? The wings were a massive hit. People kept going back for more! Thank you to the entire staff at Hizemans — you guys absolutely rock! If you're looking for lightning-fast service, delicious food, and a genuinely kind team, make sure you check out Hizemans!“

“We were in town for a basketball tournament, with a group of 22, and their staff accommodated our entire group! From the hostess, to our waitress, to whom I believe was the manager (tall gentleman), they were fantastic! The food, was delicious!!! Serving sizes were generous and their drinks were great as well. If we are ever back in town, we will return!“

“My family and I went to see the Mario movie Saturday afternoon. Absolute lovely experience and service, and the food was great. Showing my kids the Mario I used to play was a bonus! Love that they have additional activities in the lobby all the time!“

“Simply excellent. I cannot emphaize enough how good this place is.

The food we got was excellent, all of the staff were so friendly and it is just enjoyable.

Is it expensive? Yes. But it is more than worth the price.“

“Your favorite hometown place, even if this isn’t your home. If you’re local to Naperville, you already know about The Lantern. You’ve been there and will be there again.
Great food, better people, incredible atmosphere. You feel it as soon as you walk in the door.“
