Was passing through on my way home from a destination that wasn't on my path. So my steering wheel became possessed and turned into the drive thru to order a cheeseburger. Normally I would have ordered a beef but the burger was my choice. Delicious as usual .

Believe me when I say “Your kids will love this place!” My niece and nephew are super picky, but each said they would rate Portillo’s 5 out of 5. Me personally, I’d give it a 2, but will settle at 3 since the kids were happy. This is “late night” or “let me grab a quick bite to hold me over during the day” food. I would return for the kids, but will be very specific about what I order. Here’s a summary of what we ate: Chili Cheese Dog – delicious per the kids Char-Grilled Hot Dog – average, would probably eat again Flounder Sandwich – awful Beef and Cheddar – very poor execution, there was hardly any cheese and it was dry Char-Grilled Maxwell Street Polish – sausage had good flavor, onions were bland, and needed way more mustard
I love this place, that's why I am sad to report that the quality of the food that I have gotten is not as good as it has been in the past. 3 different times I have ordered a chopped salad each time the lettuce was limp and seemed to be old. The last time I ordered a salad I ended throwing it away. Yesterday I ordered an Italian beef and a drink well worth the 11 or so I thought. When I got home I was surprised to find that the sandwich had a lot less Italian beef than it use to have. It was delicious but about 1/3 less beef than normal. Maybe this is the result of economic pressure experience by restaurants during the covid-19 period. Just wanted you to know that I have been a regular customer for decades and have really enjoyed your delicious food...but I don't like the quality of the food now. Sad, I will miss it. Your staff is great, very polite and service is super fast.
Every time I come home to Chicago to visit, Portillo's is one of my first stops. I always get a beef sandwich, wet, with hot and sweet peppers, and it never disappoints. Best beef around!
