The classic Italian was fantastic. I've been coming to the area for years now and it was the first time here.
Glad I came. Fantastic sandwich and fries.

After recommendation I had the chance to try it myself, of course the food was good but just was not worth the hype and definitely good to try once.

I like going by this one...I think it's drive thru only, but they are always pretty quick and so far everyone I've had take my order at this one has been nice and chatty. I'm a chatty person and I hate when the people who take your order are sterile and cold, by that is not the case here. And the chattiness does not effect the service at all. The food is your typical awesome fare.

Portillo’s was absolutely packed tonight — two local high schools had just finished their games and the place was crazy full of teenagers. Even with all the chaos, one employee named Win went above and beyond! He was constantly cleaning tables, keeping the place spotless, and doing it all with a smile. It was so nice to see someone stay so positive and kind while managing such a busy crowd. Big shoutout to Win for making a hectic night a great experience!
