STOP WHAT YOU'RE DOING AND READ THIS--Portillo's at 7200 W Ray Rd in Chandler Has Just Redefined…read more"Heaven on a Plate" with the BIG BEEF DIPPED and That CHEESE SAUCE... OMG! I've had Italian Beef before. I've loved Italian Beef before. But nothing--NOTHING--prepared me for the transcendent, jaw-dropping, flavor-explosion experience that is ordering the Big Beef DIPPED at this Chandler location. If you haven't done it yet, you haven't lived. And if you've had it elsewhere but haven't had it here with their cheese sauce... well, buckle up, because you're about to discover your new favorite thing on the entire planet. From the second you walk into Portillo's on Ray Road, you can smell the magic--crisp sport peppers, rich au jus, and that unmistakable aroma of slow-roasted beef that makes your stomach growl instantly. But the real moment of truth comes when you look that server in the eye and say: "I'll take the Big Beef, DIPPED, LOADED with cheese sauce. And I mean loaded." Watch their face light up--they know. They understand. This is not just a sandwich; it's a ritual, and this location performs it with reverence. Then it arrives. Oh. My. Goodness. The bread is drenched--and I mean perfectly, gloriously drenched--in that deep, savory au jus, so every inch is saturated with rich, beefy flavor. It's not soggy; it's luscious. It's a sponge for joy. And then... the cheese sauce. Sweet, spicy, velvety, liquid gold--it's like someone took pepper jack, dreams, and a touch of heaven and whipped it into a creamy, molten ribbon that cascades over every millimeter of that dipped bread and tender, shreddy beef. The first bite is not just a meal--it's a religious experience. The crunch of the giardiniera, the pop of a sport pepper, the warm, juicy beef, the cheese sauce pulling in golden strands... it's an OMG moment so intense you might actually forget your own name for a second. You'll hear yourself making sounds you didn't know you could make. You might cry a little (happy tears). You might order a second one before you've even finished the first. And here's the thing--the Chandler location executes this with flawless, almost artistic precision. The line moves fast, the staff is smiling, and they don't skimp. They don't hold back on the beef, they don't drizzle the cheese sauce like it's an afterthought--they PILE IT ON with pride. You can tell this team lives for these moments. They're not just serving food; they're delivering pure, unadulterated happiness. Even the atmosphere feels electric--like everyone in the room knows they're about to have their day made. You'll see strangers nodding at each other in mutual respect over their sandwiches. You'll hear "OMG!" echoed across the dining room (seriously). And when you finish that Big Beef Dipped--cheese sauce glistening on every corner, not a drop of au jus left--you'll sit back with a food coma smile so wide it hurts, already plotting your next visit. Bottom line: If you are within 50 miles of 7200 W Ray Rd, you have no excuse. Go. Right now. Order the Big Beef DIPPED with EXTRA cheese sauce. Thank me later. And maybe bring a napkin--because that cheese sauce is so good, you're going to want to lick every last drop off your fingers. Five stars? Try FIVE OUT OF FIVE STARS PLUS A STANDING OVATION! This is the best sandwich I've ever had in my life, and I'm pretty sure it's illegal to be this good.

I checked out Mr. Pickle's Sandwich Shop in Chandler, AZ with a friend and it was my first time…read morethere. I am someone who always gets the French tip when it's on the menu, so that's what I got. The French Dip was next-level good and packed with tender roast beef, melty Swiss, creamy horseradish mayo, garlic sauce, and the au jus for dipping made every bite even better. Their bread deserves its own menu and love too because it was perfectly soft with that fresh, bakery-style texture that makes a sandwich unforgettable. They have a huge lineup of hot and cold sandwiches, wraps, salads, and minis, but the French Dip absolutely stole the show for me. And the FREE chocolate chip cookie with your purchase? Soft, sweet, warm, and honestly the perfect ending to the meal. I also love sweets so this was a nice surprise. I'm would definitely come back for more.

I was killing time in Chandler when lunch time approached and getting a sandwich was on my brain…read more Thanks to the Yelp app, I was able to find Retro's Subs & Brews and it seemed like the perfect spot to cure my itch. I was super stoked to check a place with "retro" in the name out, and I gotta be honest here, I left with pretty mixed emotions about a lot of things. The restaurant itself is pretty boring inside, mostly just being black with a few small pictures hanging up. I was kind of expecting big retro movie posters or something hanging around, but I definitely didn't get much of a retro vibe from this place minus a small neon "bar" sign and a claw machine in the corner. The menus were very cool, right by the front door its a record shelf and the records were the menus, so thumbs up for that idea. I thought i was mistaken, but I don't remember seeing sandwich prices on the actual menu, but as I look at other photos on yelp it does appear that the sandwiches don't have prices attached to them, which explains why I was thrown off by the end price. I settled on ordering the "take on me" which was black forest ham, roasted turkey, hickory smoked bacon, cheddar cheese, lettuce, and mayo on a Hawaiian style roll. I also ordered a sprite and a chocolate chip cookie as a side. The chocolate chip cookie was okay, pretty standard cookie though definitely not worth $3.75. The sprite was $2.99, and the sandwich came to $15.58. I was also charged $0.96 for something called the advantage program which I have no idea what that is. I gotta say, spending over $25 on a sandwich, a small cookie, and a drink is not something I would care to do at a place like this. The sandwich itself was very good, I won't deny that. The meat tasted fresh, and when it was all together it was definitely a good sandwich, but when there's not combo option and a basic sandwich, cookie, and drink ends up being $25 it's gonna be a no from me on returning in the future. Overall, I really wanted to love this place for the name, but the lack of much decorations and prices left something to be desired. The food itself was good, but not worth what was spent.

The second I walked in, it felt like I was meeting up with friends, not just grabbing a bite. Honestly, if they handed me an apron, I probably would've clocked in. Now let's talk about the cheesesteak... hands down the best Philly I've ever had. No crumbs, no complaints--literally and emotionally. The roll? Perfect. Crunchy on the outside, soft as a pillow on the inside. The steak was cooked to perfection--juicy, packed with flavor, and sliced so thin I'm convinced there's some kind of wizardry happening in that kitchen. I told him to make it his way, and it came out with onions, white cheese, and yellow cheese--basically a flavor party in every bite. Each bite hit a little different, and all of them were unreal. I almost slowed down to enjoy it more... almost. Do yourself a favor and get the 12". Half to eat there, half to go--trust me, you'll thank yourself later. They'll even keep it warm while you eat, which feels like a level of care I didn't know I needed in my life. I don't know what they're doing over there, but they're doing it right. If you think you've had a great cheesesteak before... you probably haven't. Not until you've had Eddie's. 10/10

"You ever try shawarma? I saw a shawarma joint about two blocks from here.

My gym shares the same parking lot and more than once I have found myself walking out from a good workout session to the smell of shawarma rotating on a spit. I have battled the urge for years but I am only humanly. I finally popped in one evening after a fitness class. Beef Shawarma Wrap ($9.99 - served with sliced marinated beef on a flat bread with tomatoes, onions, and pickles with tahini sauce): The meat was a little dry but the tahini sauce does the heavy lifting along with the juicy tomatoes, onions, and pickles. It was just enough to fill me up. Great flavor, super fresh, and it's good eats. It's a freshly-renovated space and you can watch the shawarma on the vertical rotisserie. There was the cutest husky in the restaurant the night we went so you know I was definitely happy about that. I need to pop back in the try their lamb chops. Yum!
