Not really sure if this is a thing?! But if, it is = poor quality
When placing my order I asked for no salt on anything- my burger, hotdog and fries. While waiting for my food I watched the young man place salted fries in my bag, I explained to him no salt he responded " no problem". Took the cooked fries from under the heated lamp and put them BACK in the deep fryer " I'm making you fresh fries" FRESH?? really? Is this a thing? Portillo's ??? By the way I watched the manager just walk by in oblivion!
Quality has really gone down at this location- period

Ive heard people rave about portillos Italian beef sandwich so I figured I'd give it a try. It wasn't that great and the French fries tasted stale. Maybe it was just this location.
