The menu offers a variety of dishes, including a beef sandwich, hot dog, and fries, which are cooked and seasoned well. The eclair cake is a notable treat. While the prices are reasonable, not every dish is a hit - some may find the bread soggy or the cheese sauce overpowering. Overall, Portillo's is a decent option worth visiting at least once.”

Man Vs Fries 213 N Central Expy, Allen Mexican

“Very very good. We had the NorCal burrito and it was delicious. They make it so you get some of everything in each bite, not just whatever layer you happen to be able to fit in your mouth. That being said, you DO NOT need to attempt one of these solo. Plenty for two people. They are 2000+ calories so probably not the best idea to unhinge your jaw and down one of these by yourself.”
