Food quality is good! I wished it was a little bit more cleaner inside and I wished the staff were a little bit nicer! Sometimes I go and they are nice and attentive other times they are not. Maybe just depends on the time of day. I love my beef and cheddar croissant and cheese fries! read more

Fast, efficient, friendly service. Food is good. I don't eat fast food very often, but when I get the urge for something fast AND good, Portillo's in Willowbrook is at the top of my go-to's. read more

Wow what happened to Portillos? Waited 25 min for 2 sands 1fry 2 drinks. Then the beef and cheddar croissant was an Italian beef! Then the burger was ice cold! Maybe they aren't taking care of the fine in customer any more! Guy next to us just had to get his remade too read more

We went through the drive through today and ordered a Cesar salad and gravy bread. We were given house dressing instead of Cesar and didn't get the extra I asked for, plus no croutons. The gravy bread had very little gravy on it - most of the bread was dry. The drive through wasn't busy so I don't understand what the problem was. Last time using this one. read more

Was picking up uber orders. One man of the name Jmoney was helping a bit under stress seemed over worked but he was doing great with assisting me while he seemed very stressed out. While another lady was walking around barely doing anything but drinking juice and looking very under the influence, I Feel like that was very inconsiderate of her seeming how everyone else was working hard. read more

This Portillo's is definitely hit or miss. I've received food that has been yummy and hot and received cold fries. Yesterday takes the cake though. The cheese was packed sideways and my food boxes were covered in cheese. I'm lucky it stayed into the package. Definitely annoying and frustrating, I will be taking a break from going to this Portillo's read more

Food good. Service was good. Ambiance was sit down eat a beef. Don't like that we couldn't pay cash at drive thru so we all drove away

The service here is horrible! Went there tonight for convenience but I ordered a hotdog with 3 toppings and only got 2, waited 20 mins because I can only assume it was a hostage situation with the delivery guy walking orders to cars! I don't go to this one because their service is terrible! Next time I'll drive to DG for a hot dog. Do better Portillo's! read more

Ordered family dinner Saturday night (10/26/24). My son and I both ordered a burger. I am posting a picture of my burger. The bun is no where near an acceptable size. Towards the end, my son and I were holding a piece of meat with no bun or condiments. What exactly is Portillo's doing?? Are they trying to go out of business? I'm not sure how any manager can look at the bun/burger ratio and think this is acceptable. It's clearly to cut cost at the expense of patrons no longer returning. You have a competitor (with great burgers), literally a minute away across the street. Years ago, I would sit 30 minutes waiting for my food in the drive thru because of how busy they were. Saturday night, there was no one in the drive thru when I got there. PEOPLE ARE NOTICING THESE TERRIBLE CHANGES. Do you care, Portillo's? read more

Portillo's & Barnelli's Willowbrook - Cheeseburger. Where is the rest of the bun?! - Burgers Near Me - Willowbrook, Illinois

Walk on bye-bye. Ck#430148 Order: penne pasta w/ vodka sauce & 2 meat balls. Ugg. Pasta chew was like chomping on old bubble gum. Vodka Sauce: a bland tomato/pink milk flavor pour over. Meat balls: bread mixed w/meat slime. F, super supper Bad. The only improvement would be not to go back. Recommend others take this advise! read more

I ordered my beloved Cheddar beef croissant which I only allow myself to order about once a year. The croissant was so mushy you wouldn't recognize it as a bun. After I peeled it off there was no evidence of cheese being on the sandwich, which was why it was so easy to peel the croissant off. $.99 for peppers on an $8.99 sandwich. I guess I am believing what I read in the business section of the paper. The new investors no longer care about quality and just want the profit margins to grow. The restaurant was almost empty and the drive thru wasn't long. 6:00 pm. Very sad. read more

We all know how cheap pasta is to make. Decided to treat my wife to their pasta after a hard days work. They charge for a piece of garlic bread when you order pasta. C'mon. Stop with the surcharges. The beginning of the end. read more

After an unfortunate experience at Dell Rhea's on Tuesday night we landed at the Portillo's on Route 83 in Willowbrook. The person that took our order was very friendly and attentive explaining what each type of cake was. While I almost always order Italian Beef when I go to Park Ridge, Rosemont or Summit, they had a "big burger bundle" special that was very good. The best part was the shift leader (didn't get her name) who worked the counter where we picked up our food. She very much treated us like longtime friends more than making up for our previous restaurant stop! The food was good and amazingly fast compared to other Portillo's we regularly visit. There Portillo's Perks program is awesome!!! read more

Food was good, we would definitely go back if we were ever back in Chicago. Having never been there before it is confusing and they do not tell you that not all of your order is coming out at the same place. If you order pasta and hot dogs the pasta is picked up at a different window... it's also not a good experience to get a refill, you have to butt in front of others waiting for their food to ask for a refill. The workers were nice, except for the cashier. She wasn't very helpful and was just trying to get you through the line...(even though there was no one behind us). The inside was pretty cool though because it has old antique car parts and other antique stuff in the middle section. All in all it was a pretty good place. The kids loved it! read more

The ambiance inside Portillos is very cool, but busy. There are a lot of good options to choose from. My personal favorite are the fries with cheese sauce. Takeout orders need to be double checked more often, as they're not always accurate. read more

this used to be one great place for beef & such. since going under corporate ownership, the bean counters have taken over. first it was the incredible shrinking beef sandwich that used to burst with beef and peppers, now it's just ok. so their newest ruined item is the italian sausage sandwich. I got it yesterday and was stunned by the decline in quality. to begin the sausage was lost in the italian bread roll. the sausage was the size of a hot dog and it was 2 " short of the bun. the ends were pucker closed sewed shut like a hot dog and narrow sized. it was cooked so dry with no juice and filled with fennel seed for fake flavor. I tell you, little by little this company is destroying their once delicious eats. so sad! read more

Great food as always, good fast service. Nice casual atmosphere. I love their hamburger, my wife got the Italian Beef and she loved it.

Whenever I return to visit family, a visit to Portillo's is a MUST! Their hot dogs are my favorite in the whole world! I also love the cheese fries. I don't understand how anyone can give Portillo's a bad rating. When you move away you don't know how much you would miss it. I've traveled all over the country and I've never had a hot dog as good as Portillo's! read more

The food here is the standout - everything here is so good. A classic Chicago staple. I love the Chicago style hot dogs and the Italian beef dipped with hot peppers and grilled onions. I have never gotten anything bad here. The service is also very friendly. The only thing that I will say is that it can take quite a long time to get your food even if you order online just because they are always busy. So keep that in mind. Bonus points for having a drive thru as well. The ambiance is great - classic Chicago artifacts and memories throughout. read more

Always a great spot. The ambiance is casual, the service is good for the most part. The food is always fresh and delicious. Today I had the small beef dipped and purchased a jar of peppers because it's cheaper than paying for not enough peppers or oil. Today they weren't as chirpy as usual, no funny calling of orders. This location is my favorite and my first stop when in the Chicago area. read more

Nothing is the same since Dick Portillo sold. I remember him stopping into the Lombard location to check on catering on Christmas Eve in his eight ball jacket. Glorious. I love this place, it's Ours. From the old Pizza Hut location on Lake St. Arizona and Cali can have one but, this is ours. Previously; meticulous, precise, and efficient. Now, mistakes are made; broilers break down. It ain't the same. That being said my child is getting Portillo's pj's and there's a chopped chicken salad is in the fridge. But, always remember; this was one man's lifetime of work and a Chicago original. read more

Portillo's best fast food on the planet hands down. I am a chili dog lover and Portillo's has the best one around. Hot dogs are something else!! Love this place. read more

I ordered a chicken pecan salad. But they forgot to put the chicken in the salad. Called them the first time so they can resolve the problem. They put me on hold for 30 minutes so I decided to hang up. Called them again the second time and they said they were going to put me on hold again. They hanged up on me again. Called the 3rd time and I asked them if I can speak to the manger, she said just call back tomorrow morning because the manager is not available. The way they handled this situation was not right. read more

They usually make errors on drive-through orders. Check your order carefully as they do not refund money spent for items not received.

My God! I could eat lunch here on the daily! First time to Willowbrook area and Portillo's and will be returning soon! I had the Italian sandwich with the more spicy peppers and mozzarella cheese, don't recall the name of them Italian peppers, but the food was delicious, especially with the side of Au jus. Also had the cheese fries which topped everything off perfectly. I was drooling after eating the first meal, I ordered a second one to satisfy the craving! read more

This was an absolutely horrible experience at the Willowbrook Illinois location. I have messaged guest services 5 days ago and recieved a case number with no further response. I arrived at exactly 5:00pm and walked up to the pickup counter inside. I noticed that all the employees were either working or engaged in conversation, so I patiently waited for a staff member to come over and help me. After approximately 3 or 4 minutes a young woman who I later found out was a (shift manager named Emily) who (started off very pleasant) came up and asked if I had a pickup order. I gave her my name and she began to search for my order. Within a split second another female employee (I was not given her name, she worked the pickup counter supposedly, was in her early 20's, had long black hair, and was very thin) who had been talking by the french fry counter with her back turned to the pickup counter, then turned around and glared at me. She proceeded to walk over to another employee within feet of me, on the left hand side of the counter and start making derogatory remarks about "what type of person am I to not ask for help" and degrading my personality without ever speaking to me. I spoke up and told her, "it is extremely unprofessional to walk up to a coworker and begin talking about me or any other customer, all because I didn't want to interrupt her, when I had no idea that her job was pickups when she wasn't around. " She got hostile walked towards me in an aggressive manor and proceed to say, "what did you say to me? I'll talk about you and say anything I want to you." I told her, "you should respect the customers, you're acting very ignorant, you should take your job more seriously." At that point i began to ignore her because she was continuing to rant about she will say anything she wants. I told the other girl (Emily) that it was unacceptable and she needed to handle the situation if she is in charge. Emily looked at me and said, "i got it" (while smirking). I was beginning to walk away and turned back around to notice what appeared to be them smiling or laughing. I immediately walked back up asking for the name of the girl whom this whole situation started because of, so that I could contact corporate or the branch manager. Emily told me that she will not give me her name and that she didn't have to. At this point I became aware that neither of them had any respect for the customers they were serving. Finally Emily gave me her name when I asked and said she was a shift manager, not sure if that is true. I have never been this disrespected at a business that I am giving my hard earned money, all because I choose to wait patiently for service. My family and coworkers of a local business frequent this location but since this interaction we have all including the business decided to no long patronize this establishment. Other customers in the store looked disgusted by how the staff was behaving and for the staff to call someone's character into question in front of other employees and customers because they were not doing their job and embarrassed themselves is unacceptable. This young woman needs to be reprimanded as well as her shift manager Emily who allowed her employee to speak that way to a customer. I truly hope their establishments cameras caught this interaction, and management can take appropriate action. read more

Since we're in lent, I had to go and get a pepper and egg sandwich! They're so good with a side of cheesy fries, always hits the spot! While we're there, we always get the pasta as well. This time I got the rigatoni and vodka sauce, this was good! Service was good pretty quick was early in the day so I wasn't too busy. We had gotten there right before the dinner crowd so it worked out. They have quite a bit of room so it wasn't too busy like I said so we were seated right away. read more

A favorite anytime we come to Chicagoland area! These restaurants are always clean and the staff is always friendly...just don't order ketchup on your hot dog....the chocolate cake shake is evil!!! It was my cheat day....and did I ever cheat!!! Authentic Chicago dogs rock, and the Italian roast beef was fantastic...soaked in au jus the way they are supposed to be!! Please please please open a store in Tulsa!!!! read more

Not sure what's going on with portillos. Seems the food quality has been going downhill at several locations. The food here was average. But I remember not so long ago it was the absolute best. read more

Food 7/10 Service 0/10 Speed 0/10 I know I said I wouldn't be back here again. Despite my protests, my family really wanted to order food from here and I found myself waiting here yet again. We put in an online order and showed up an hour later to pick it up. We were kept waiting over 1.5 hours. A total of over 2.5 hours. And part of the order was wrong. I'm disappointed by the terrible customer service and lack of masking/ability to social distance for those not dining in. Won't be willfully coming here again. I hope this feedback would be helpful to consider for improvement. read more

You can always count on a decent hotdog or Italian beef in any Portillo's in Chicagoland. They are also in Southern California and Tempe, Arizona. I like the "combo with sweet and hot, dipped" so much, I have been to those out of state ones too. read more
