that company went public a few years ago, so I have seen them in texas. they got one near my daughter crib down there.

that said, portillos is wildly overrated these days. very high prices while food is shrinking. I can't tell u the last time I went. furthermore, there really isn't one near my crib. the closest is either going downtown or out to the burbs, and I'm not willing to do any of those things for food I can get within 5 minutes of my crib.
Damn it went down??

Gotta try and see if it still hits then.

I've found a couple of deep dish pizza joints tho here in Atlanta at least.

My boss said the line was retarded since they opened two days ago. Might try on Friday when I pickup kid from college nearby to go home.

u will like it, but the main two things I like there are italian beef and the cheeseburger. but I'm not going all the way over there for either and waiting in the long ass chic-fil-a like drive thru lines.

plus I can get an italian beef over here that taste just as good, but is twice the size and comes with fries and a drink to boot for the same amount.

They said the line right now makes Chic-Fil-A look like Hardee's outside of breakfast hours :francis:

They really are more expensive than ever, but the food hits and I can't really find as many places here in AZ that can make that kind of food well.

In Chicago you can throw a rock and find a rundown spot making bomb polishes, pork chop sandwiches, beef, gyros, etc. So Portillos comes in clutch when you live out of state and got that craving for italian beef or a Maxwell polish.
