Chicago-born chain for hot dogs, Italian beef & chocolate cake
"Set to become the chain’s fourth city location near Wrigley Field, this outpost is reportedly planned for 3519 N. Clark Street, a former 7-Eleven, with details like an opening timeline still scarce. Expect the brand’s iconic local staples such as the Italian beef sandwich and Chicago-style hot dogs, plus recently introduced secret menu items." - Jeffy Mai
"The shops are mostly in Chicago’s suburbs. The kids in those small towns grew up and moved to the big city. Those newish residents caused much hoopla when Portillo’s recently opened city locations in Avondale and South Loop. The drive-thru in River North is an operation to behold. The chain’s Italian beef and hot dogs present Chicago street foods in a comfortable chain restaurant setting. The chocolate cake, made with sour cream, even inspired the luscious version that appeared on FX’s The Bear." - Ashok Selvam
"I expect Portillo's to open with a 1920s-themed speakeasy in Wrigleyville." - Ashok Selvam
"A much-hyped new location for Portillo’s, the famed Chicago fast food chain beloved for its Italian Beef sandwiches and gargantuan slices of chocolate cake, opened earlier this month to a line of super fans, according to the Tribune. Though its dining room is currently closed, all usual goods are available via drive-thru, curbside pickup, or delivery. An outdoor patio is also open." - Naomi Waxman
"Portillo’s still plans to build a Northwest Side restaurant on the border of Avondale and Irving Park at Addison and Kimball with a Roaring ’20s theme, outdoor patio, parking lot, and double drive-thru; company reps said they expect to break ground in the next two months and open later this year." - Naomi Waxman
