Whenever venturing around our vast country, I like to frequent businesses that are not found where…read moreI live; naturally, I saw Portillo's (a native business from Chicago) and knew I had to try 'em out! First off, the outside as well as inside of the establishment is beautiful! When you walk in, the restaurant is beautifully decorated; it's a cross between a fast-food establishment and a restaurant dining-style. I believe another Yelper also mentioned that fact as well. One can order in two options: using the self-kiosk, or going to the counter where there is someone there to take your order. Having both options available is rather convenient. For my food, I got the Famous Meal #1: Italian Beef Sandwich. However, I came prepared: it was going to be personalized to be the perfect meal. FIRST: make it big ($2), then add sweet and hot peppers ($1.98), mozz cheese ($.89), and ordered slightly wet. For my sides, I opted for the large onion rings ($4.99), and in addition --- this is A LOT -- I got the famous Chocolate Cake Shake (additional $6.19). If you were going to get a normal meal, it would probably cost you about $14.57. Mine -- with all the add-ons? $26.88. Take that into consideration. How was the food? Portillo's is definitely the experience many Chicagoans have heaped about. The "dipped" Italian Beef Sandwich was generously portioned, and if I had anything to comment-on --- it would be adding more sweet + hot peppers to the sandwich. Besides that, everything else was spot-on. On to that famous milk-shake: if you're a first-timer DO IT. How does it taste? It honestly tastes like a "real" version of a frosty from Wendy's --- taste wise. At least we know what's in this milkshake: Ice Cream, Milk, and a slice of chocolate cake. It was thick, creamy, and hit the spot. All-in-all, I totally recommend Portillo's if there is a location near you! It's definitely an American institution and is worthy of the hype.

We approached the counter and placed our order then waited for our number to be called. The establishment is fairly large with brightly colored decor and table/booth seating options. It was clean and the customer service was exceptional. There was a lady calling out orders over the intercom. She used quirky call outs for each order number which was a nice added touch to the experience! I ordered the Italian beef with melted cheese and it was delicious! The bread was nicely toasted, meat was juicy and flavorful and the cheese brought it all together! Highly recommend!

Our group seemed to get a lot of looks from other customers, and at times it felt like we didn't really fit the typical crowd there. At one point a table nearby started loudly saying political phrases and making hand gestures, which made the environment feel uncomfortable. Another table even pointed toward our group and showed something on their phone to each other, which added to the awkward feeling. The restaurant itself was also very crowded with limited space between tables. At one point a child from another table kept bumping into me due to how tight everything was. Unfortunately the food didn't make up for the experience either. I ordered a burger that ended up being extremely greasy and lacking flavor to the point that I couldn't finish it. Overall it just wasn't a pleasant dining experience, and I personally wouldn't return.

On both occasions, the waitress was slow and not very attentive, which made the experience frustrating.

None of the three of us enjoyed our meals -- the food just didn't meet expectations at all. I really wanted to like this place, but based on my experiences so far, I don't think I'll be coming back

I was directed towards the half pounder jalapeño burger and the mushroom chicken sandwich. Both sandwiches were extremely too soggy. The buns were not toasted or even fresh just a lot of moisture the moment you opened them up they were wet. The flavor on the jalapeño burger was just that, no unique taste at all, and the chicken sandwich was ehhhh just a lot of sloppy lettuce and an overcooked piece of bird. I can say I tried it but wouldn't try this place again. Also for 2 sandwiches and 1 fry $32 was a bit much in my opinion. Happy Yelping

Checked the menu and decided on the 3 piece tender combo with coleslaw and a sausage,egg,and cheese biscuit. I paid about 15 bucks for everything. The tiktok hype was completely over rated. The tenders were mid at best. The coleslaw was ok it was cold which is a plus. The breakfast biscuit had a sausage patties that looked like a hokey puck‍. The only thing that saved this meal was the 2 biscuits the were fluffy and delicious id eat liek 10 of those biscuits if they put them in my path.

I reached for my phone, pulled up the DoorDash app, and started scrolling through a sea of local options for fluffy flapjacks. As my eyes perused the photos, my stomach started rumbling and my priority became clear: the faster, the better. Whataburger became the clear winner, promising I'd have my pancakes in 20 minutes, so I ordered. My order arrived right on time, and my food was still hot. The butter had been conveniently warmed by the piping hot food on the way, and it melted easily into the steaming stack of pancakes as I spread it. I chose to use my own maple syrup (since theirs was not "maple") and I have to tell you, these pancakes truly hit the spot. They were fluffy and delicious! These "fast food" pancakes easily rivaled the high-dollar stacks at fancier places, no question. The 4 stars instead of five is for the subpar bacon. I like good bacon. There's was not good bacon. Not even close. But I can't say enough about the pancakes, and the fact that I was able to enjoy them in my bed without lifting a finger outside of a few thumb taps on DoorDash is everything. What a wonderful world.
