Reviews for Portillo's Hot Dogs in Chicago, IL
Traveled 2 hours from Michigan was one place we had to check out. The Good The chocolate cake shake is the best shake I ever... had! The burger was excellent taste like a better version of burger king with the Char-Broil classic taste. My favorite! TheBad , the fries and chicken noodle was terrible 1/5 stars that chicken noodle tasted worse then caned soup didn't think that waspossible I felt a little disrespected on how bad it was to be honest selling it for 5 dollars for a small bowl the fries wasvery underwhelming soggy, Luke warm CHEAP crinkle fries huge disappointment. Chicken tenders was underwhelming but decent Irealized there may be a little over hype on this place but the chocolate shake and burger alone make it worth it they need a fryupgrade and take that chicken noodle off the menu but it is worth it if you HAPPEN to be near by.

They were skimpy with the beef. Hot Dogs were good. Fries were fresh the onion rings tasted like they were cooked then maybe put... in again to warm them. The chocolate cake was delicious very moist perfect amount of frosting to cake. Dining area was cleanhowever the bathrooms were not. There is an outdoor patio which is nice. The decor is awesome. Alot of history on the walls.They offer catering and shipping options. Read more
In my opinion the Italian beef really isn't that good, it doesn't have much going on in the flavor apartment. The only way I see... it being decent would be if dipped but that would make the bread soggy and gross which I did try the 1st time. Their fries aredecent. Cake shake is a godsend for any sweet tooth but in my case it is way too sweet. I say the pricing is fair for what itis. Read more
Glad we got to visit here and dine in! The inside is interesting and very eye catching. The food is good and the staff is very... friendly! My first time trying a Chicago style hot dog, I was not disappointed! Read more
My chili dog was pretty good. The hot dog itself was juicy and I really liked the beans in the chili. The fries were hot and... crispy. Nice and clean atmosphere. Read more
Busy and popular if you're into this kind of food. A bit weird how your order comes out piecemeal but I guess that's their... system. They messed up our hotdog order initially but rectified it straight away when I went back to the counter. Plenty ofspace inside at 8PM to dine in. Food was fresh and tasty. Must try at least once.

Great food and great atmosphere. I got the beef with no bread because I am on a Keto diet- even without the bread this beef is... worth the visit. 4 out of 5 because I got no peppers, it made me a little upset to be honest but life goes on. Would comeback. Read more
Let me start by saying, I love Portillo?s and have always been satisfied customer, even before I flipped vegan. When I heard... that they would be adding the vegan Garden Dog to the menu I headed straight there to give it a try. For some reason thislocation left a bad taste in my mouth, ugh. I?ll start with the staff because that?s where the problem started. I asked thecashier TWICE if I could get a tray because I would be dining in. She said ok twice as so I?m sure she heard me. Not going tocomplain about the long wait because it?s expected, reason being, the food is great. After my number was called I noticed myfood was in a to-go bag, so I politely asked if I could get a tray because I would be dining in. The first tray she give me wassoaked and idk if she seen it when she give it to me so I asked if I could have a dry tray. She stomps away huffing and puffingbecause I wanted a dry tray. Well when she returned she slams the tray down on the counter and you would not believe it wasSTILL wet!! I asked if she could please dry it off because I would like to place my food on it, after she stood the for about 20seconds, she walks away to get a towel mumbling under her breath and was just giving me all types of bad vibes!! The Chicagostyle vegan dog way a little over cooked but other then that it was fine. Will definitely think twice before I return to thislocation! Read more
