We went late night and still had to wait 15 minutes to get our food. The staff was goofing around in the kitchen area while the orders were stacking up. The food is way over prices for what you get. Got a chili dog, fries, a piece of spice cake (which wasn't very good), and some sweet peppers which totaled up to $25.00!!! Crazy! Will not be returning anytime soon.

Portillos is a must when youre near Chicago. Chicago style hot dogs are amazing, burgers are great too and if i don't bring home one of their famous cakes there will be a riot in my house.

I stopped by Portillo's in Shorewood, IL, for lunch, and it was a fantastic experience! Their classic Italian beef sandwich is hands-down one of the best I’ve ever had. The beef was tender, flavorful, and perfectly seasoned, and the bread was soft yet sturdy enough to hold up to the savory juices. I opted for it dipped with hot peppers, and the combination was incredible.

The staff was friendly, the service was quick, and the restaurant had a clean, welcoming...
