  Right when you walk in you notice the woman calling out the numbers. Unfortunately I didn't get her name, but man I'd love to have her on my team. She takes so much pride in her job. She's happy, excited to be there and super welcoming. Makes you want to be there, I hope the management there takes very good care of her. Employees like her are rare to come by. The restaurant overall is clean, organized and the service was real quick for it being lunch on Sunday. Typically when I get my garden dogs it takes a bit at other Portillos, but here it was quick. I loved it!! Thank you for the great meal and experience.

  I absolutely loved my experience at this location. The weather was terrible, but Ajla did not let that get her down. She took my order with a smile, and convinced me to make my regular fry a large. What great marketing skills! I definitely will be going back! :)

  When I say everyone knows the food is never cold or old its quality never misses. However Ajla is a drive thru worker and when I say great service with a smile. It doesn’t matter if it’s pouring down raining or icy cold she still greats you like the sun is shining. Her accuracy to remember every detail even upon seeing you again is amazing. Such a warm smile and she breaks down all your options to ensure you get the best meal customized just how you like it. Amazing keep the good spirts

  Skokie Portillo's is great. Nice place, good seating, wide menu, app, tablets, drive thru, etc. Thanks for the vegan hotdogs guys! Delicious :). And thanks for supporting lettuce wrap instead of buns (no egg/dairy). Please allow double vegan dogs too thanks :). And please add vegan beef Italians to your menu :). So we can load up, go more often, bring more people :). A vegan char dog dropped into a vegan beef Italian fully loaded/sweet/hot/oil would be a game changer :). Please add vegan cheese to your menu too, if you want to keep up with Buona :). And add an Impossible Burger to complete the set :). And run one fry vat with vegetable oil. So that vegan/low fat/no tallow people can get fries too :). Thanks Portillo's!!

  No matter what location you're at whether it's lunchtime or dinner, Portillo's always delivers the goods. Possibly the most popular Chicago grill experience in history. Always a clean & kickin' atmosphere with delicious grub at still fair prices and friendly service. Can't say I've had anything here that I didn't like and the food always comes out hot n' fresh in a timely manner no matter how busy they are. This location is at an ideal spot located just a few seconds south of Old Orchard Mall. As always, I certainly hope for decades to come of boomin' business for the owner(s) of this bustling venue.
