| - Delicious and meets all your expectations of Portillo's in Chicago!
Having grown up and currently living in Chicago, I have frequented many Portillo's across the city and the Chicagoland area. It is pretty surprising to me how consistent they are across all their locations. Champaign was no different. While I unfortunately did not get to go inside because of the packed parking lot, I was able to order my regular go-to items through drive-thru in a fairly timely manner. On my trip here, I got the classic Chicago hot dog with everything, the Maxwell street polish, Italian beef sandwich with peppers, and, an absolute must, the cheese fries. I don't know what they add to their cheese sauce but it is crazy good. Overall, from placing the order to getting our food, it took about 20 minutes, which is not terrible, especially for a Saturday afternoon.
Pro tip: Know what you're getting before you pull into the drive-thru lane as they can take your order well before you get to the menu board.
