Portillo's Hot Dogs

I will say I don't care for anything to do with the hype about this place or their food. However, I came with my Step Dad, as always he was wearing his Veterans hat, the server who took our order thanked him repeatedly and gave him an unexpected military discount. As we were enjoying our food another server approached our table handing him a slice of chocolate cake, stating that she came from a military family and dessert was on her. It really made his day. And in turn made me understand why people like this place so much. The service was remarkable. Thank you for all that you do to make someone's visit special.

Always great food! I've had the Italian beef, Chicago dog, cheese burger, onions rings, fries, cheese fries and a chocolate cake shake. Everything is so good! Worth a shot if you've never been here.

I really enjoy Portillo's burgers and fries. It has a very "old school" feel about the presentation. The burgers are a good size. The items are sold separately and there aren't any meals or combos. You can pick and choose individually what you want. The service is fairly quick and it's a pretty popular place for many locals.

I don't think you could ever say anything bad about Portillo's except wait times if you happen to drop in at a busy time. Believe me, the wait is well worth it!! They have so many good things on the menu, but I absolutely can't bring myself to get anything other than Italian Beef or Vienna Sausage. They do it the best!! If you order online, you can even have it at home and they give you instructions on how to properly prepare the beef. I always get the combo sandwich. It is Beef and Sausage on a bun. Oh man!! Now I want to go get one. Please don't be intimidated by line length. It does move pretty quickly but remember everything is made to order so it may take some time to receive. Well worth the wait no matter which location you visit.
