  Have to always check (when ordering through drive-thru). Most of the time something is missing but I get how they operate. The person being food to the car is usually not throne loading the Bach.

  Terrible attitude of girl in drive thru taking orders. Your order is incorrect 95% of the time at this location. Pricey for what you get. If you want Portillo’s you’re better off going to a different one in the area.

  Stopped by Portillo's in Algonquin before the dinner rush and it was nice and quiet -- basically empty inside. We ordered at the kiosk (super easy and quick to use). Got a hot dog, Italian beef, and a chopped salad. Didn't have to wait long at all, and everything came out hot and fresh. The restaurant was clean and the whole experience was smooth and easy. Exactly what you want when you're grabbing a quick meal! They also have a grab and go corner by the register. Loaded with their yummy chocolate cake! Their merch section is really cute too! Almost wanted to buy the Portillo's dog plush!

  I have been to Portillo's many, many times over the years and everything has always been delicious. This time I went to pick up a slice of their chocolate cake for my birthday. The best cake EVER, to me! If you haven't tried it, you are missing out on a truly awesome taste experience. Also let me add that Portillo's drive thru is expertly handled if you don't want to go inside. It is always very busy, but handled with precision and courtesy. The atmosphere in all of them is warm and really makes you want to stay and enjoy.

  ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Portillo’s is hands-down one of the best hot dog places you can find. From the moment you walk in, the atmosphere is fun, clean, and fast-paced, and the staff keeps things moving even when it’s busy. The Chicago-style hot dog is absolutely perfect — fresh poppy seed bun, snappy all-beef dog, and the classic toppings done right. Everything tastes fresh and high quality, and the portions are generous. Their Italian beef is also incredible, juicy, and packed with flavor, and the cheese fries are dangerously addictive. What really stands out is the consistency. Whether you’re stopping in for a quick lunch or bringing friends from out of town, Portillo’s always delivers great food and great value. It’s a must-visit for anyone who loves comfort food done right.
