I had one at Portillo's and I wasn't very impressed.

Portillo's. And it's Italian beef, not Chicago beef. Get it wet with peppers.

My only experience...I was happy. I'd still rather a roast beef po-boy from R&O's.

Tried portillo's for lunch. It was just ok. A little dissapointed. Will try Al's on my next trip. Thanks for the advice

Portillo's Italian combo dipped with peppers.
