Grabbed an Italian beef sandwich at Portillo’s today in Fort Wayne. Iconic beef sandwich with hot peppers. Love their crinkle fries careful not to over salt them.
We also got a salad, which getting a salad at a Italian beef place is almost blasphemous. Nothing good nor bad to say about the salad. Nice surprise with THE strawberry shortcake bowl. The right amount of whipped cream. It was nice getting a little bit of Chicago in Fort Wayne today.

Food quality & portions have gone down since it was sold. But it's the only place for a beef. Had to use the kiosk since no one was at order counter. Food was up fast, but no line inside. Bag tossed on counter as person called # & walked away. Had to wait till another order was filled to ask for additional gravy since not an option on kiosk. Lots of memorabilia on the walls as decor. Plenty of sitting in different areas so it didn't feel like you were sitting on top of someone.
