Mrs. Christensen
We are from Idaho, and there is nothing like this place that I’ve come across yet, so it was a fun and delightful environment. The food was delicious. I ordered the Italian beef sub with mozzarella cheese and hot peppers. The peppers are really spicy, so I wish I would have done the sweet peppers. I also ordered small fries. We then ordered to go a slice of lemon cake and a slice of chocolate cake. They each cost $3.89. Everything g was reasonably priced! I loved jazz music, it wasn’t too loud, and such a nice change from the typical alternative rock music in almost every restaurant nowadays. I’m so glad we tried this place!

Great food, but I really wish they wouldn’t keep their employees working outside in unbelievable heat. I’m certain we can all wait until we get to the order area. Food has always been consistently good and accurate.

We LOVE Portillos!! We always get the same thing, so I don’t know what else is good, but I’m going to guess it’s all amazing

Dean Hervat
A popular place and rightly so. Its got a fun unique sort of vibe. You pass through a line and order your food and pay. In a few minutes your order is ready and you pick it up and find a table in the large dining room. The food is above average and you have plenty of choices … it just takes a bit of ‘work’ to get it. Just me (not!) … getting a bit annoyed with the tip ask at the beginning of the order/pay point of a visit.

This place has such a great vibe and super tasty food. We picked it based on the dog friendly patio seating and will come back based on the excellence!! We had a beef & cheddar on a croissant and standard cheeseburger with fries and cheese sauce… and have seen and smelled several of the other options and will need to come back some other time to try more!

This location could teach lessons on efficiency. Our food is almost always right, but fast and friendly service every time. No complaints for as busy as they are.

Portillo’s is one of those “must go” places. It’s always busy but your food is ready surprisingly quick, the workers are always friendly, and the food is always top notch. In my opinion, they have the best Italian beef around.
