Go to naples and take the cruise tour on the naples princess and you will see the guy who started portillos massive yacht called "top dog" behind his massive house!!!
That's such a cool fact! Thanks for sharing 😃. Definitely pinning this comment. With a chain as good as this I'm sure the yacht and house were massive 😆.
We've gone back multiple times since this video and can attest to the quality not slipping over time too. I actually had the chance to speak to the GM who told me they relocate and train all managers at another location before opening a new one, then staff is trained for weeks before opening. It really is incredible how quality and efficient everything is here.
I lived in Chicago for 7 years, and was so happy to see this opening 10 minutes from where I live now! We went there three nights in a row when it opened 😂
This place looks so fun! Love all of the theming. I’ve never heard of it before but this looks fun and nice and close to the parks. That salad looks good! Definitely a good portion. The hot Italian beef looks good! I loooove pickles so sign me up for that pickle hot dog haha. Mayonnaise in the cake/shake?! Hahaha! Never heard of that before lol but if it makes it good LOL! Awesome that it really does take like chocolate cake and not just a chocolate milk shake. Looks like an awesome spot! Thanks for sharing you guys! 😊💜 another great video!
Thank you 😃, Portillo's is more so a Chicago staple. Honestly, I(Jay) wasn't really aware of it before moving. It was so good. We've actually been back twice since this video and after a few tries are considering here our favorite local spot for a quick bite. This particular location is really convenient to hit up since it's really close to Disney. Great portion sizes too!
We love Portillos! We live in Michigan and they opened one here about 2 years ago. It's always busy. I'm glad you guys get to enjoy it now. I know they opened a Jollibees near you, have you tried that yet?
We’ve already gone back since our first visit! We’ve been wanting to try Jollibee for awhile, they were opening one in NJ when we’re still in NY but it got delayed and we didn’t get to go. Excited to check it out in Fl 😎
I just came here to say yes to all of it. I want all of it. 🙈 We finally got to try this place in September and OMG the hype was real for me. We need to try the hotdogs next time but the hot Italian I had was so flavorful! That chopped salad looks legit! And I'm so glad they opened one up by property. That means we could prob door dash it to the hotels 😂 I used to make my brownies with Mayo and it does indeed make them super moist and soft. And the little Frank dog mascot is super cute. ❤️
I am a believer in mayo induced desserts now. That cake shake was next level. We were seeing Door Dashers there so it definitely sounds logistically possible to get that sent to a Disney hotel! Margaritaville is literally within walking distance. The hype was real to us too 😆. Everything was so good. We recommend getting the Hot Dog next time. That was my favorite. Frank as the mascot was the cherry on top. They earned our business 🐕.
Born and raised in the suburbs of Chicago. Salad is usually go to to. But the onion rings, mostaccioli, bacon burger, chocolate cake & chocolate cake shake is amazing.
My uneducated non-foodie self thought that Portillo’s was a Chicago ONLY chain until this video! 😂 We tried it when we were in Chi-town for a wedding and thought it was terrific, but we had to eat it in the car because the dining rooms were still closed during peak COVID. If this new location is anything to go by, I feel like the interior decor is half the experience! 🤩 I’m intrigued by any salad that clears a 7. Crinkle cuts are the second best fry after curly fries, imo, but to each their own lol Mayonnaise in cake and milkshakes? 😱 Jay’s reaction was on point! Great video, guys. Can’t wait to try a Mayo shake sometime! 😂
I have a fued with crinkle cut fries man ☠️. The best crinkle cut anyone has ever had was when they were between the ages of 7 and 10 with dinosaur shaped chicken nuggets. They're pre-frozen nostalgia and have been coasting off their legend. Steak, curly, shoe-string, wedges, fresh cut; all are superior. But I'm happy you enjoy them and accept that we all have different flavors. Portillo's does in fact live up to the hype. To be honest, I didn't know they existed outside Chicago until this one was built 😆. Although I may have seen Adam the Woo's Orlando vlog. The decor here was definitely a trip. Worth a stop if you guys are ever in town. Mayonnaise desserts are apparently great. Thank you!
Portillo's beef should always be dipped! A couple sides of gravy is a must!! They also have great onion rings! 😊 The mayo is in the cake... Mayonnaise is made from eggs and oil, also in cakes.. 😅
We've been back to Portillo's so many times since our first trip and we're definitely dippers now! Yes mayo makes cakes very moist, I used to be a baker :)
Thank you 😃, we definitely recommend everything 😆. We've been back twice since this video. Really convenient too since it's right outside Margaritaville and Disney World.
If you want really good chicago style hot dogs, you have to goto "Navy Pier" in Chicago, you won't regret it. Now, while at Portillo, make sure, your guys try the "Maxwell street Polish Street hot dogs", it's really good. I use to live in Illinois. :)
I had the Polish Dog off camera! So good! If we're ever in Chicago we'll make sure "Navy Pier" is on our list of places to try 🙂. Thank you for the suggestion!
BTW, there's a secret trick for getting free drinks if you guys decide to go inside Disney World. Don't tell anyone. If you bring empt bottles inside the theme park, you guys can get "free ice water" at any of their restaurants instead of paying $5 or $6 bucks for soda at their rip off prices. :)@@ThemeParkFoodies
Portillo’s for life! Living in Chicago suburbs, I go multiple times a month as there all over here. Best Chicago dog and Maxwell St. polish, chopped salad is amazing, onion rings and cheese fries are the bomb and you haven’t lived until you had their chocolate cake washed down with a vanilla malt. Nothing here is bad! Theming at all locations by me is all 1930’s Chicago speakeasy Al Capone mob stuff with model T inside
I just had their Maxwell Polish Dog, it was 🔥. We've been twice since this video. I think we're becoming regulars 😆. I need to try the onion rings and that cake with vanilla shake combo. Happy they built one down here!
I grew up in Queens, NYC. I wonder if that Pizza place is still there on 71st under the subway with all the graffii, etc. I remembered there was a fried chicken place next to it back then. :)
My Mom grew up in Queens! We miss New York Pizza dearly. Those little shops are the best 🙂. Just had pizza in Texas last night and was understandabley let down 😆
Don’t worry I’ll make those jokes for you Sam. One that’s not the only hot Italian beef Sam’s looking at. Two Sam loves her hot Italian beef. And three hot Italian beef eating hot Italian beef. My brother who now lives in Chicago loves a good Chicago style hotdog. got to bring frank there.
This is Craig Dennis how are you both doing today i am doing fine today i watch your both new videos all the time i in joy all of your both videos how is the weather been this moth you have a nice safe day today and you both take care
Thanks Craig 😃. The weather has been a little colder than usual but beautiful still. Happy to hear you are well and we're grateful for all your support. Hope you have a nice and safe day too.
Honestly I did ask for peppers on this one but I think they made a mistake. Usually I don't eat peppers because my stomach can't handle them but I make exceptions for the vlog. When it came without I figured it was best for me anyway. Although I have had it with peppers since and I agree it's 🔥.
try Al's beef if you ever get a chance in Chi.. Funny thing is I thought Chicago food was everywhere and then my gaming friends are telling me they don't know a lot of foods we eat here.. Then I go to other cities and man some of them I feel like don't know what spices do to your taste buds to help bring out more flavor out of other foods.... I would also get gravy on the side and added to each bite.... sorry just thought of that... Take care bud@@ThemeParkFoodies

@@ThemeParkFoodies when you have a place that gets great reviews like yours you can buy a real big boat!!
Portillo's is just about the only chain I've ever seen that keeps the quality absolutely top-tier no matter where they are located

1:35 was wondering if about that "snap", too😂
The snap is important! 😆
Thank you
Of course 😃
@@ThemeParkFoodies I'm from New Jersey and I love my snappy hot dogs 🌭
The snap is what I was looking for and Portillo's delivered.

Love them dogs! Order without hot peppers or they'll take over the sandwich.
Beef sandwiches; Juicy., sweet peppers.
the best!!!
Love this spot. Great video!
We were real impressed 😃. Thank you!
Don’t worry I’ll make those jokes for you Sam. One that’s not the only hot Italian beef Sam’s looking at. Two Sam loves her hot Italian beef. And three hot Italian beef eating hot Italian beef. My brother who now lives in Chicago loves a good Chicago style hotdog. got to bring frank there.
Nailed it
fantastic looking hot dog and that shake yum!🥰
The Shake really impressed me! Tasted just like cake in a shake. The hot dog was just like a classic Boardwalk Nathon's.
2023 Portillo's is in TEXAS... North Dallas and Coming Soon to Houston. I was Made in Chicago, IL. (southside)
Awesome!!!!
@@ThemeParkFoodies Touche' (smile)

Bud, you said you had a hot Beef, but you had zero peppers on it.. You have to try it with the giardiniera

Portillos is known for their beef sandwich... With hot peppers...
Thats all i eat over there. 💯☑️☑️☑️
We’ve been back many times since filming, everything is so good!!!
Next time, get a cake shake to go & put it in the freezer for a few hours. 👍
Great idea 😃, definitely trying that next time!
Nice! Was the drive thru packed?
Not during this visit, it was a weekday around 5ish. But we have seen it packed out before.
Is it true they don't serve you ketchup not even for your fries? I detest cheese sauce with fries.
We’ve definitely gotten ketchup there before 😊
It’s not a beef if you didn’t get any kind of peppers on top to cut the fattiness.
gotcha
First
😃
Portillo's is not Spanish the LL is not pronounced as a Y.
👍🏽
Portillos not porteeyos. And where are your peppers on beef? Doing it all wrong. And baptize that sandwich.
Can't have peppers due to dietary restrictions, still highly enjoyed it.
