We love watching your videos and all the places you go. You have 2 very cute and sweet kids. Praying for Safe travels
Thank you so much, Teresa - you are always so kind. We appreciate your comment about our boys. They have so much fun making the videos. We hope that you and your family have a Happy New Year and thanks so much for watching.
I love this place!
They have some amazing food! One of the best Chicago dogs that Brent has ever had.
Always enjoy your reviews. I think that is Jim Belushi, John's brother, in that picture. There is a definite resemblance. Cheers!
I grew up on Portillos when I lived in Chicagoland. It's changed a lot since Dick Portillo sold it to Warren Buffet's company. I haven't tried the chocolate cake shake but it sure looked thick. My family and I ate on one this past Tuesday. The Italian beef is delicious.
not Warren Buffett's Berkshire Hathaway, another Berkshire
That is so cool. We don’t have any Portillo’s down here yet. Hopefully they’ll continue to expand so we won’t have to travel to Florida or Indianapolis to visit one. We can only imagine how amazing they used to be if they were once better than the food they serve now.
@@EveryDayIsSaturdayTV I bet you guys will get one within the next couple of years. They are growing fast. They are still pretty darn good
It's still great . Portillos
Portillos is a staple here in Chicago. You should have tried the actual chocolate cake. Amazingly good for a fast food place. Their salads are really good as well. Thanks for the honest review.
After our visit, we were told about their chopped salads and definitely want to give them a try. Thanks for the recommendation on the actual chocolate cake. We bet it’s amazing. Have a Happy New Year and thanks for watching.
That was soooo fun 😄 l enjoy the boys tremendously 😊
Thank you so much, JoAnn! We appreciate you.
Just discovered their channel, immediately subscribed. The boys are so well spoken, and mom and dad gave an honest review.
Thank you so much for subscribing, Paula! Thank you for your kind comment and we hope that you have a Happy New Year!
FYI that is Jim Belushi not John Belushi in the photo. Being a native of Chicagoland, Portillo's is a must have whenever I go back to visit. Although the Florida locations don't have tamales on the menu.
We hope that they continue to expand to other locations. The food is great!
@@EveryDayIsSaturdayTV Why did you NOT address his FYI comment ? You just side stepped your way right pass that!!!
@@MotoxKJ38 *”PAST” that is actually the correct grammar. It appears that you're human and make mistakes as well!!! 😉
@@MotoxKJ38you are now side steppin’ their response back to you lmao.
Just wanted to say thank you again for all the great family videos
Happy new year may it be blessed from our family to yours
Hi there, @dadof3579! We really appreciate all of your kind comments and your support of our channel! Thank you so much, and we hope that you and your family have a happy and blessed new year too!
Food looked great!
I’m so sorry you had to encounter such rude & ignorant people
Typical of this world we live in 😢
Your children are being raised so well, God Bless all of you
Hope you had a wonderful Christmas & praying for a blessed , happy & healthy 2024 🥂
Thank you so much, Judy! We really appreciate your comment and hope that you and your family have a blessed and Happy New Year!
The food look great
Thank you, Michael! We had a great experience here. We hope that you have a Happy New Year and thanks for commenting & watching.
@@EveryDayIsSaturdayTV Have Happy New Year and safe one
Great idea. Warmer weather 😊
We wish that we were back in FL today. We’re up in Kentucky right now and headed through Illinois and Missouri this evening 🥶. We hope that y’all have a great weekend.
As a Chicago girl, I always ask for a side or two of gravy 😋 Portillo's employees are supposed to be friendly, always!!! Shame on them!!!
The gravy sounds like it would've been a nice addition for dipping! We'll definitely have to try that out next time. We hope that you have a Happy New Year, Joan!
Sadly, now that Dick is gone from the daily operation, most employees are not invested in the company. It’s just a job to them. I too have experienced poor service at my recent visit in Texas. A sign of the modern day I suppose
Portillos hot dogs are awesome
Love the honesty here! Your boys really are lucky to get to explore and travel so much. The experience for them cannot be beat!
Just a thought……I volunteer with the Maury Co. Animal Shelter. Have you ever thought about doing videos for non profits? I know the exposure for them would mean so much.
Thank you, Aymer Faymer! We always appreciate your kind comments. We would love to film a video at the Maury County Animal Shelter sometime.
The food looks Good God bless
im jealous of this family. good boys good food. good wife. obviously good god
Thanks for your kind comment, @iamgeminijoker We hope that you're having a great start to your 2024.
I've never heard of that place & we have been to Kissimmee a lot of times. I gotta have ketchup on my hot dogs lol. It's the only way I'll eat them. Very nice video 😊
Love your videos thanks from Bob and Barbara Bicknell ❤
Hi there, Bob and Barbara! We are so glad to hear that y’all are enjoying our content, and we really appreciate your support! Thanks so much for watching! We hope that you’re having a wonderful week!
I was literally there about a month ago 😂 . Kinda cool see you there too
That is so cool. It would've been neat to awesome if we ran into you there. We hope that you have a Happy New Year, Michael!
I’ve never heard of them. Thanks for the review. We’re heading to Florida in January. Have a great trip!
It's a great option if you're looking for something quick, but also hearty. We hope that you have a great trip to FL next month. Hopefully you'll have great weather on your trip. Have a Happy New Year and thanks for watching, Sandra!
The food did look delicious but the service could hold people from coming back regardless of the taste.
No excuses for rude behavior. It is a simple smile to make someone’s day.
I get a kick out of your boys.
You can see Gentry getting ready to say the name of the establishments & same preparation for the review. His stance makes me chuckle.
Henry is a cool little dude!
Happy New Year’s and looking forward to seeing more adventures! ❤❤❤❤
We agree - customer service can be just as important as the quality and taste of the food. Thank you - Gentry asked if he could start introducing the places shortly after we started our channel and has always maintained that same excitement about introducing where we're visiting. Thanks for your comment about Henry - he keeps us on our toes lol. We hope that you have an amazing New Year and thank you so much for commenting and watching, Cindy!
We LOVE Portillo’s, and if you’ve never tried the Maxwell Street Polish Sausage definitely put it on the list! Also, in the summer time they have Lemon Cake along with the Chocolate, and it’s game changer! And even though it’s “illegal” to put ketchup on a Portillo’s dog, I say lock me up, they can’t stop me! 😂
The lemon cake is SOOOO good.
We will put the Maxwell Street Polish Sausage on our list of things to try on our next visit. We look forwarded to returning to a Portillo's again sometime. We're with you - we prefer a good mix of ketchup and mustard on our hot dogs ourselves. We hope that y'all have a Happy New Year!
If you think it’s good today, you would be blown away by the food, service and atmosphere from the original days. The days before Dick sold the company. It’s just not the same but better than going without.
Seems you did it right by ordering an Italian Beef, the cake shake and a dog. Next time, get the sandwich dipped. Then eat it with a fork.
It’s also okay to put ketchup on your dog. Many Chicagoans do.
@@wiggydebates3944 We will have to try that out next time. It sounds delicious.
@@RobZelinka We were told after we went here that we should've tried the sandwich dipped. We can only imagine how good that must be and will be a must on our next visit. It's also good to know that it's not really frowned upon by Chicagoans to use ketchup. We put ketchup on top of our ketchup here in the south. Have a Happy New Year, Rob.
The sub looks great and cheese sauce but 1 thinh I cannot tolerate is people being rude. I'm soft hearted and that would just ruin my day. Thank you for sharing this with us. I found it funny that Chicago has that law in place.
The rudeness is a Kissimmee Florida thing, not Portillos or a Chicago thing. Yes, it's sacrilegious in Chicago to add ketchup to a Chicago style hot dog, most true Chicago style hot dog local spots have signs stating not to even bother asking for ketchup or they don't carry ketchup at all. It's because the Chicago style hot dog is perfect as is and the ketchup ruins it. It's a Chicago staple and taken seriously in Chicago. As far as fries, when done right the fries are steamed in the wrapper with the hot dog and they have their own distinct flavor that you don't miss the ketchup. Now Portillos doesn't do the hot dog/fry steam wrapped so you do need ketchup or cheese sauce (or both) for Portillos fries.
Food looks good 😊
Brent, first thank the boys for me for brightening my day and putting a smile on my face! Second, everyone's food looked so good! Y'all would've made me hungry but, I already had some cheeseburger calzone for breakfast this morning. I wish I could try a Chicago dog because, those really look good! As always loved the boys reviews! Love y'all and God Bless You!❤️ Wishing you all a very Happy and Blessed New Years!🎉 Really enjoyed your video ! 9:39
Sorry to hear about the rude people. That's too bad. Portillo's is something we drive HOURS to get, as the closest one to Western KY is in Champaign, IL. We LIVE for the beef sandwiches, but we like them completely dunked so that you have to eat them with a knife and fork.
Not sure where we have been, but we have not heard of Portillo's! All the food looked so yummy! David and I are debating what we would get. lol The cheese sauce did look really good. Thanks for the heads-up about the rudeness. Definitely unnecessary! Great video as always. Happy New Year!
Jim Belushi not John! I live in the suburbs if Chicago! I have 2 Portillos within 5 miles in 2 different directions. Glad you liked it!
Good catch! We would love to live that close to a Portillo's. So many great options on the menu. What's your favorite thing to order there?
Had portillos once when i visited chicago. i rly enjoyed the chicago dog, even had to order sport peppers for hot dogs at home .. thanks for sharing your experience.
I think all of the menu items are really good. If you get a chance to go back, try my favorite sandwich, the italian beef and sausage sandwich (locals call it a "combination") with sweet peppers. Absolutely fantastic! I think they have the best fries of any chain.
Your family is such a treasure boss! Thanks for sharing your experience,I’m from Denver,Colo (sorry hehe)
New subscriber i love yourte vidéo 👍👍
Thanks for subscribing! We appreciate it.
Happy New Year's 🎉
Thank you, Julia! Happy New Year to you too.
The look Jennifer eyes tell you that it a fantastic food and michelle and ed want 2 try they need to come to ohio love all your reviews happy 2024 new year everyone XOXO enjoy yourselves in Florida 😊😊 see you guys videos next year and in person i really hope so stay safe out there
I love Portillo's Big Beef sandwich with peppers and gravy and it is LARGE and a very filling meal ! The Fries are good if hot & fresh and have not tried the "cheese sauce" yet but will do so on the next trip. I also want to try the Italian sausage sandwich. Great review and description of your visit ! Sorry for your encounter with the rude employees, but as you probably noticed the caliber of fast food employees today is .............
LOVED THE VIDEO…SHOW’S ME HOW MUCH I MISS PORTILLOS. BTW, THAT WAS JIM BELUSHI, NOT JOHN. JOHN WAS THE KING. WE HAVE ONE 90 MINUTES FROM ME NEAR KNOTTS BERRY FARM IN CALIFORNIA. ANYTIME I GET CLOSE, WE STOP IN AND DINE IN STYLE. I REMEMBER WHEN IT OPENED, NEAR KNOTTS. IT HAD THE MANAGER FROM THE BIG ONE IN DOWNTOWN CHICAGO NEXT TO THE HUGE MCDONALDS. I RECOGNIZED HIM RIGHT AWAY. HE WAS SENT DOWN TO OPEN IT UP BACK IN 2007? I ALWAYS GET MY DOGS CHARRED ON THE GRILL. ALL FOOD IS THE BEST AND THE CHOCOLATE CAKE IS MY FAVORITE FOR DESERTS.
I haven’t eaten at Portillos in a looong time, but about five years ago, I was a DoorDash driver in Chicago. I would pickup at both the River North and South Loop location. While I never experienced rudeness, I did experience subpar customer service. But the restaurant continues to be a big hit in the burbs, with extremely long lines in the drive thru.
That cheese sauce looked drinkable lol here in Winnipeg, the only places you can get cheese sauce in a cup are taco places and 7-11. Sadly I can’t eat that way anymore 😢 great video as always 😊
Hi, I haven't seen ya'll in while,where have you been? Good to see you back. Hope you had a Merry Christmas.
Hi Pam, we’ve haven’t been posting as much since we’ve been staying busy with some holiday events. We hope to be back to posting twice a week again beginning next weekend. We hope that you have a Happy New Year!
Finally 2024 Houston, TX is Getting Two Locations on Northside Willowbrook Mall & Southwestside Sugarland / Richmond. YEA! I was Made in Chicago, IL. (southside)
Man I wish they had one in Miami
We bet that they'll be in Miami soon enough. They seem to be expanding everywhere. Thanks for watching, James, and Happy 2024.
@@EveryDayIsSaturdayTV Thanks a bunch Have a Great year too!
Hj, if you are using a camera what kind is it? Great quality along with an entertaining video!😊
Wow 👌 thank you!
Thank you, David! We typically use a Go Pro and an iPhone for 99% of our videos. We also have a drone camera and a Canon - but haven't used the Canon in about 2 years.
You're welcome! Have a great New Year!
@@EveryDayIsSaturdayTV You and your beautiful family too!
May you have a blessed 2024. ❤❤❤❤
I live in a suburb of Chicago, never been to Portillos. 😊
It you enjoy Chicago dogs and hot beef sandwiches, they serve up some of the best. You should give them a try sometime. We hope that you have a Happy New Year, Holly!
I ate at the Portillo's in Indiana outside of South Bend this past September. I had the chocolate cake shake and it was so good that is it was the last thing I ever did it would have been worth it.
That was Jim Belushi, but close enough!
Great catch, @aljames5072! Thanks for watching!
✨✨✨🙏
Thanks for watching, @anamariabarbosa3995! We hope that you’re having a wonderful week!
There are 3 TEXAS Locations in DFW Area. Can't Wait When They Come Down to Houston Metro Area. I was Made in Chicago, IL. (southside)
At the rate that they seem to be expanding, we're sur that it won't be long at all before they'll be Portillo's down in Houston. Thanks for watching and we hope that you're having a great start to the New Year!
@@EveryDayIsSaturdayTV Touche' (smile)
Actually that picture is jim not John blushing his brother
Good catch!
If you’re going to correct someone, spell the last name right.
Try the Lemon cake you will love it
Restaurant supervisor/manager reality check: the hit or miss customer service in the QSR/fast food biz is a major problem. Often it's caused by poor training, lack of consistent supervision, lack of follow up on customer complaints- especially bad online reviews and most importantly- bad treatment of front line staff by management. If staff are treated badly by management it will cause bad seevice to customers- guaranteed! Sure there's high staff turnover in the restaurant business, but that's no excuse to not train/supervise staff in customer service positions. A rude/hostile staff member at a restaurant can destroy the customer's experience. Good video, thank you for sharing your family's experience.
Portillo’s has the best burgers bar none! The only burger that I would take over Five Guys.
The burgers aren't really any different from Hardee's
Wow - if it's better than Five Guys, we may have to give it a try. We had no idea. Have a Happy New Year @biggdre
Jim Belushi ;)
That was in Villa Park IL
Chicago guy.At first I did not like Portillo because,to me ,it’s I don’t like “ cute “ places.Recently,the food has gotten to me.I am a big fan of the Polish with grilled onions on a hot dog bun.Though there are many places for a combo sandwich,Portillo’s is in my top ten. The no ketchup deal is like telling a kid about the boogeyman
Thanks for watching!
That look like Jim Belushi
That's Jim Belushi
Good catch!
What was the cost for 4? I know it's near Disney and tourists central but there wasn't many patrons there. We had a "Chicago Dog" open in Altamonte Springs a year ago and lines out the door for about 2, maybe 3 weeks and they closed within a year. We've been to "Medieval Knights" in the mid 90's and paid $50.00/adult and saw a great show but got soup w/ a spoon, chicken leg quarter which they bought for less than $.50/ea, a potato and a veggie w/ no utensils. If you can't make it on 192 in Kissmee or International Drive you're doomed. Party of 4 = $500.00 if not more not including drinks.
I go to the Portillo's here in North Lake IL
While there’s a ton of great restaurants in the Pigeon Forge / Gatlinburg area this place would make bank big time in those areas.
Hello and happy new year 🎈💐
I believe the guy in the photo on the wall was Jim Belushi not his brother john
Great catch, David and Jewls! Thanks so much for watching! We hope that y’all are having a wonderful week!
@@EveryDayIsSaturdayTV thanks same to you as well it's going great
:50 Jim*
Jim Belushi.
That picture is not John Belushi that is his brother Jim Belushi
Good catch, David! We hpoe that you have a Happy New Year!
Good morning from CRAZY Gatlinburg' guys!!🏞️😂
I want 1 of those trays, do they sell them?
We didn't see them for sale at this location, but I bet if you were to ask, they may offer to sell you one. All restaurants should start using these trays.
@@EveryDayIsSaturdayTV Thank you for responding! After your vid, I spent over an hour trying everything to find them to no avail. Closest thing was small ones for cars. I need one for my overbed table for my home hospital bed I'm confined to. It would help me SO much trying to not drop items. Tomorow I'm going to contact their corporate office to see if they'll sell me one, even a used one, or tell me who their supplier is. I recognized IMMEDIATLY how much one would help me! (By the way, I subbed you because I like your family, your "all American", like mine.)
Don't see any prices on the menu????
They should fire the rude people. Thats not helping the company or customers.
We agree! Customer service is just as important as the quality of the food. We hope that you have a Happy New Year, @truth4004
(edit) 5:35 - 4 da *fwiez* 7:00 needz 2 b a *vienna*
Thanks for watching!
Jim Belushi
Good catch!
In this video I have never heard of Portillos in Chicago but I have been there 2 times and it is very cold that's why they call it the windy city and I have been to FLORIDA several times as it reminds me of home which is HONOLULU HAWAII and I am talking about the weather very warm but my question is how much was this food?because I know that food in Florida is not expensive rather very reasonable not like NYC where it can get very expensive depending where you go but I know where to shop and I look for deals and if it's not on sale I just walk away and wait for it to come on sale as HONOLULU HAWAII can get very expensive no matter where you go no deals maybe the flea market at ALOHA STADIUM only on the weekends Saturday and Sunday and there are a lot of vendor's out there as I look for garage sales and they do advertise maybe in the VILLAGE VOICE but I won't travel very far or I can go to Craigslist under item's for sale as I have done that before but year's ago and people love to hagle as I am very much aware of but it's got to be in good condition like anything else like a used car and I will have the BLUE BOOK sold by BARNES AND NOBLE and in NYC there are many different locations and they also have indoor flea markets like going to 14th street to the farmer's market and you can find things that they sell in the supermarket and a lot cheaper same product but half the price and I don't look for junk working and in good condition and you can barder and they know it but it's extra money for them as they don't want it.And it doesn't bother me at all
My daughter and I ate there at the Portillos on Palm Parkway back right after Thanksgiving. We did a quick trip to Epcot right after Thanksgiving. We were very hungry after the long drive so we went where it wasn't too crowded. We were gonna go to the Raisin Cane right next door, but the line was way too long. So we both go the Italian Beef sandwich. We really wasn't impressed with them. As best as I can remember, there was no melted cheese and no steak sauce to put on them. Unless I didn't see it. I was expecting a typical Philly cheesesteak sandwich and not just beef with some hunks of bell peppers on them. They weren't what we typically expected them to be. Now would I eat there again? Yes, absolutely. I would try the burgers and hot dogs though. So just because we weren't too impressed with the beef sub, we will go back and try other items.
Did they have malts ? Those are easier to drink from a straw.
We didn't see any on the menu, but agree that those would be a lot easier to sip. We hope that you have a great weekend, Eldon! Happy New Year!
It was JIM BELUSHI....NOT JOHN!!!
👍
jim not john
Check out Hotdog Heaven in Orlando amazing
We will definitely have to check it out on our next trip and have added it to our list. We appreciate the recommendation. We jus looked it up on Google and it looks great! Have a Happy New Year, Randall!
Get the Italian sausage with hot peppers it's FIRE 🔥 I eat there all the time..
I'm Sorry To Encounter Ignorant and crazy people, We Hope And Pray You Have A Safe Week
We agree! Thank yo uso much, Tyler. We pray that you have a great week as well and a Happy New Year! Thanks so much for watching and commenting. We appreciate you!
Idiotic that anybody would consider it odd or wrong to put ketchup on a hot dog.
Ketchup and mustard go well together on burgers and hot dogs.
We enjoy ketchup on our hot dogs too.
The subs look great...but noooooo to that hotdog. I do mustard, chili, onion and slaw...or any combo of those. I took one bite of a hotdog years ago that was dressed like these. I'm not a really picky eater, but that had to come out of my mouth..lol. Has Gentry gotten into a growth spurt? He's almost as tall as Jennifer now! Hope ya'll are having a great day and God bless!
Ever since it was sold quality has gone down. There’s definitely better options now in Chicago
u accidentally said 😅
Ignore the first response I love this family the food looked amazing Brett I think you accidentally said John Belushi instead of Jim but there both great we live in Georgia I asked my husband where Kissimmee was and he told me and asked why and I told him and he laughed I hope your family has a safe and Happy New Year ❤
The food was really good! That’s hilarious about mixing up the Belushi’s. We didn’t notice that until now.
Leave it to me to notice something like that have a great weekend and a Happy New Year ❤️
There’s NO place for rudeness in pubic service in the food industry. Everyone has a bad day. But as I heard a Boss said to a coworker ( check your attitude at the door .) But I too acknowledge some customers can be annoying. Treat others as you would like to be treated. Food looked delicious. But would I dine there probably not
Portillios on Palm Parkway has screwed up our orders on countless times and never apologized or gave a refund. We always get cold fries and since they opened in May of 2022, they raised their prices several times. They no longer serve ribs or tamales or garlic bread. It’s not the same since Dick sold it. Their beef is bland and greasy. We are not going to Portillios in 2024
Not as good once they franchised…
That's a bummer to hear. We were still be fans of the food, so we can only imagine how good it was before they started franchising. Happy 2024, Rachelle!
I don't why you people don't ACTUALLY EAT ANYTHING WHAT U CLAIM IS GOOD! THE ADULTS THAT IS!:(((((((((((
Hi Mahmoud, it sounds like our channel may not be for you. Thanks for watching!
ugh florida doesnt deserve this.
Overpriced and ok food
Thanks for watching!
