    Only restaurant Ive encountered in town out of 40+ places I've eaten that doesn't take discover network debit cards. What year is this? On top of that several times now we've came in to pickup food only to find it stolen off the pickup shelf, forcing us to wait around for it to be remade. If it's such a problem, it needs to be out of the reach of customers until they verify their order.

    Sure would be nice if you include ALL our food in our order from DoorDash! How hard is it to read a damn order sheet and check the damn thing? This is the last time I order from this store. Had enough of your inability to perform a SIMPLE job accurately!

    First time eating Portillos. I got a cheeseburger and my husband got a spicy chicken sandwich. The spicy chicken had a very good flavor but burnt his mouth which means it was too hot. . My cheeseburger was awful. I couldn't even eat it. It was cold and absolutely tasteless except for the burnt corners. The fries that were hot was good but I bit into several that were still half frozen in the middle. The servers were polite and friendly . The place was clean. Not sure we will ever go back.
