I went to Portillos last night and really enjoyed the food. It is fast food, but that is okay, I am always in a hurry and I like that. I also liked that you can order in the kiosks. Very efficient.
I ordered a hot dog with everything, a beef sandwich, and a spicy chopped salad in order to sample the menu (but did not eat is all by any means). The hot dog was great with jalapenos, tomatoes and a big pickle on it. One hot dog was all I really needed for dinner. The salad was also very good it had a definite kick, with some peppers in it. Lots of stuff besides lettuce, that I couldn't really identify but it was good. I had it for lunch today. My daughter ate the beef sandwich. It comes with au jus for dipping. My order said "med wet" on it, so I think you can order the beef "wet" or "dry". She liked it.
I know nothing of Chicago cuisine, but if this is the fast food version of it, I like it.
