Can totally agree!!!!! I'm from Chicago but, now live in GA, the first thing we do when we go home is go to Portillo's. She should have tried the Italian beef combo already dipped...ONG 🤌🏽🤌🏽🤌🏽🤌🏽💜
When you spoke into the sandwich instead of the mic I about died 😂😂😂 you are sooooo hilarious and entertaining! Don’t have Portillo’s where I live but it looks delicious!
Hi Ashley, I know many places server beef sandwiches with the beef au jus on the side and its referred to as a French dip but in Chicago we ordered it either dry, wet or dipped. Dry - The beef is pulled from the juice with tongs, most of the juice is allowed to drip off, and it is put into a roll. No juice is added, and the sandwich is about as dry as it can get. Wet - The beef is pulled from the juice and immediately put into a roll, leaving the beef “wet”. Then they add another spoonful of beef juice over the top after this step. Dipped - The beef is pulled from the juice, stuffed into a roll, and then the entire roll is dipped into the beef juice, making a soggy, delicious sandwich.
Yep they dip it full in the gravy without it being on the side. We in Chicago baptize the whole thing! We love it that way I love Portillos cheese fries so good. My Chicago heart loves that youre visiting my city. Yes they have a whole sit down restaurant it's always busy
I’m born and raised in Chicago, you have to get your Italian beef extra dipped with the cheese sauce on it, the Maxwell polishes is amazing. No state can top Chicago food ❤
I’ve been actively looking forward to your videos while rewatching all your old ones. I don’t know but watching you eat gives me so much joy and serotonin ❤
I've been waiting years for anyone to shout out Portillos!!! I've grown up eating it and now my best friend and I have a tradition where we have it every Friday after work. 😍
Oh yeah. The onion rings look & sound great. I love polish sausages. You really made out well with the entire meal. This video was brought to us at no extra charge for Ashley's famous smile & sense of humor 🤣 🥰
I've lived in IL my whole life & it is called running a dog through the garden. The beef is best dipped. The bread is soggy but amazing. Their ribs and burgers are also amazing, and never forget either a slice of chocolate cake or a chocolate cake shake. You can never go wrong with Portillo's.
Chicago native here 🤚🏾 I’ve been eating Portillo’s since I was 12 (I’m 41 now) and I’ve worked at two locations (the first one was across from the Rock N Roll McDonald’s where R.Kelly picked up his happy meals) and the other was on Canal and Taylor! That cheese sauce is called “liquid gold” 😩🙏🏾
Central Illinois here, burgers and sandwiches are called "run it through the garden" when you want all the toppings! Welcome to Illinois hope you have a great and safe trip!!
Omg, I haven’t been in the Chicago area since 2015 and I’m so jealous right now. Im salivating so bad , I think I miss having Portillos even more than seeing my relatives that live there lol.
I love Portillo's. We have them in Tampa so it's crazy to hear you don't have them in Toledo. Their Shakes and deserts are phenomenal too. I think it's called fast casual dining because you order at the counter.
As a Chicagoan …. Yes it is the best thing EVER !!! 😩😩. I live in Texas now and they are building a Portillos right near me. My heart is so happy !! I get to eat something from home !! I’m glad you enjoyed Ash !! ☺️
My polydactyl cats love tortilla French fries. Walter holds them in his little kitty paws with his little kitty thumbs and throws them up in the air lol
That food looked absolutely delicious! Especially the Italian beef and the onion rings. Unfortunately, we in the Northeast and there's none in our neck of the woods.
I'm happy to hear you enjoy Chicago's food and people while visiting. I get that it's hot, no car, etc. But Portillos is the last place I'd go for Chicago staples. Hot dogs are best at Gene & Judes or Superdawg. A Polish at Jim's Original hot dog. And an Italian beef at Johnnie's.
I’ve been watching you for a while and just realized you’re a fellow T-Towner. I love finding content creators from my hometown. Keep up the great content.
I’m a dipped Italian Beef girl. I have the restaurant dip it. At Portillo’s, it’s dipped with hot peppers and a side of cheese sauce. I dip it in the cheese sauce.
I can't eat italian beefs from anywhere but Portillo's...always dipped. ❤The location in my neighborhood is always crazy busy no matter what day it is. I hate the wait time so we don't eat there often. It's definitely a treat when we do go though.
Love Portillos, it’s sad to live where the don’t have one. Driving to Illinois this week and hoping to stuff my face ! Glad you enjoyed ! Try the choc cake shake .
Dipped cut in half with the Hot peppers....then dip it in that cheese sauce!!! Love it!! You have me going to Portillo's today!!! Hoping to spy you in this Chi town streets!!
Awwww! I’m from suburban Chicagoland (born, bred, and buttered, lol). When my grandma was still alive, my sons and I would take her Portillo’s beef sandwiches on Fridays for dinner. She loved them! 💕
Hi Ashley, if you want to get bread just like that to take home you can find it at many of of our Chicagoland grocery stores, especially at Jewel/Osco as well as Walmart, they might even sell it at Walmart in Toledo. The brand is S. ROSEN'S FRENCH ROLLS (Italian beef rolls). they come pre sliced in either a 6 count pk or 12 count pk of mini rolls and either are around $6 a package. And they are almost always sold on the shelfs in front of the deli counter.
the onion rings, i'm drooling, also the running the dog through the garden, i've heard that before, i think it was on guys diners, drive ins, and dives when he went to portillos
In Chicago, most of us get our Italian beefs dipped. Meaning the whole sandwich is dipped in the au jus so the bread gets a little bit juicy. Add cheese and its even better
I was born and raised in Chicago and I’ve never heard that saying about the hotdog 🤣🤣 but I LOVE Portillos!!! It’s on my list every time I visit back home. I always get the cheeseburger, fries, cheese sauce, and sometimes the chocolate cake shake. SOOOOO GOOD!!! 😋
Honestly I never thought of ordering their onion rings. But seeing that they’re super crunchy! Definitely getting the CHI dawg and rings next time I go
You should try the Beef & Cheddar Cuasaunt!!! With a side of gravy?!! OMG!!! The gravy is really for the Italian Beef. Portillo’s is sit down &take out. They have a drive thru that takes your order in person.
BRUH… Portillos always hits! But you shoulda tried their fries with the cheese- idk what is they’re just crinkle fries but they’re always perfectly salted and I think they fry them in the beef grease or something but they are so fuggin good and aromatic. And the Italian beef is even better as a combo sandwich- they add a grilled Italian sausage in there and add their sweet peppers those are so flavorful cuz they’re cooked in the spices like oregano and other stuff. It’s for fatties but it’s the best. Their chocolate cake is also delish.
🤣😭☠️ I screaminggg inside I was going to try them tonight and i have trying been waiting to try it! But dont have a car righr now and i already walked in a 100 degrees earlier after saying im not going to walk today 😭🤣☠️ so this made my night! Love the content🙅🏾♀️🙏🏾💛🙏🏾 Good vibes!
So happy you made it to Portillo’s! It never disappoints. Now I will be going to Portillo’s tomorrow! Enjoy Chicago! We really are friendly city and it’s beautiful. ❤
I live in Cincinnati and want to start a YT, so I watch my favs to learn, Blove is in Cincy as well, you should reach out to do maybe a collab, I know for sure yall would have fun together and create more great content!
GIRL! You gotta get that italian beef sandwich XTRA WET! The bread needs to be a soggy, soggy mess for maximum deliciousness! Can't wait to see you eat thru my city! Enjoy! xx
Ashley, if you love any type of HOT DOG, pls travel to NYC and try the dogs from these 2 FAMOUS joints---> (1) KATZ'S & (2) NATHAN'S. These are damned DELISH❗️😋😋👏💯
We are the "Smash it on downers" or the "Watch yer facers" 😂😂😅🎉
Watch your face - shaker crew.... ???
Guilty of buying an entire chocolate cake from Portillos…. It’s THAT good.
Yess, we buy one every year for my mom’s birthday 😂
It's what I ask for, for my birthday every year since the 1980s!! I can confirm.
The summertime lemon cake is that good, too! 💛
@@karenwhite4461 I forgot they have the lemon cake!!!

I was drooling over the onion rings. Now, that hotdog is something else.
Love me some Portillos. Welcome to Illinois.💕
With 87 Location in USA, Too.
"Trained eating professional" had me crying. Lol. My friends get so mad-ish when we go to dinner. I can eat. I will eat. I love food.❤
I lost track of your channel and couldn't remember the name of it. I typed in watch your face salad and you popped right up 😂

I miss your salads. 😔. It was so refreshing and made me actually wanna eat a salad

Portillos has an amazing chopped salad I thought for sure she'd try it!

All I could think of was the Carol Baskin version 😅
Portillo’s has to be my FAVORITE fast food. They’re so gooddd
I've been waiting years for anyone to shout out Portillos!!! I've grown up eating it and now my best friend and I have a tradition where we have it every Friday after work. 😍
I’m from Chicago but living in the middle of nowhere southern California and this made me want to cry. I miss Portillos so much 😭😭😭
I live in ga now. I hope they bring Portillo down here.
If you're anywhere near moreno valley in riverside county, they have a portillos there
"Last bite, Condi Crew!" 😁
Sorry that’s giving condom
Oh yeah. The onion rings look & sound great. I love polish sausages. You really made out well with the entire meal. This video was brought to us at no extra charge for Ashley's famous smile & sense of humor 🤣 🥰
That polish looks legit and the bun. I love that it looks thin
Welcome to our city !! U got allll the best stuff so happy u like it cuz we ALL do ❤
The onion rings look amazing.
lol the way you caught and corrected yourself saying “ol” to oil 🤣 I love when peoples’ accents come out

great review ❤
Yessss so happy you got to visit Chicago 💜 I hope you had a wonderful time. Love your videos and your vibes 😊 a beautiful soul
Baaaabbbyyy! Mouth watering! I miss Chicago food so much 😊😊❤
I love Portillo's. We have them in Tampa so it's crazy to hear you don't have them in Toledo. Their Shakes and deserts are phenomenal too. I think it's called fast casual dining because you order at the counter.
I didn't know they were in Florida. I just checked, and there's one about 30-45 mins away from me, lol. Thanks for mentioning it.
@@kalishajnz you're very welcome.
As a Chicagoan …. Yes it is the best thing EVER !!! 😩😩. I live in Texas now and they are building a Portillos right near me. My heart is so happy !! I get to eat something from home !! I’m glad you enjoyed Ash !! ☺️
I just went to one in the dfw and it was so good 🥰 I hope you have a good experience when you go!
Yum. My hubby and I eat there every time we are in Chicago.
Portillos has a chocolate cake SHAKEEE and it’s literally delicious!!!
Ash... I was waiting for the chocolate cake shake!!! 😢
Oh how I miss Chicago food! It's been 25 years since I lived there, and I can still remember how good the food was.
My polydactyl cats love tortilla French fries. Walter holds them in his little kitty paws with his little kitty thumbs and throws them up in the air lol
that food looks amazinggggggg
❤ love your energy
Chicago born and bred - I’ve never heard of “running the dog through the garden”. That’s some new transplant language…Happy you enjoyed Portillo’s!
That food looked absolutely delicious! Especially the Italian beef and the onion rings. Unfortunately, we in the Northeast and there's none in our neck of the woods.
I live here in Chicago and I love portillos she's right those onion rings are good. They got the best lemon cake.
I missed Portillos so much I had them ship beefs with sweet peppers and giardiniera. It came with enough for 6 ! Worth every cent. ❤🎉
We are your condiments! Cuz you love us! And we love ya right back Ash! It’s simple but I feel like it makes sense! Sending good vibes ✨✨✨

Love your videos. I watch from half way across the world. We don't have most of what you eat.
Girl! Where is the chocolate cake milkshake?❤😂
Never heard of this place, but if you still get that crunch with delivered they must be beyond good!
The anxiety when balancing the dips on that Pringles tub was off the scale. 😂

Their burgers are delicious too! The Caesar salad with grilled chicken is great as well
I love their chicken sandwich and cake shake! Ooohhh and the beef sandwiches! We are fortunate enough to have one in Davenport IA!
I'm not saying I'm moving to Chicago because of Portillos but it's definitely one of the reasons why I'm excited to move.
“Last bite, Lovebirds.” Because Ashley LOVES Condiments.
Im from Chicago area - you can gdt it shipped, all ingredients, make how how you choose. Its been a godsend in MN for me when I cant get back home
You should try the Beef & Cheddar Cuasaunt!!! With a side of gravy?!! OMG!!! The gravy is really for the Italian Beef. Portillo’s is sit down &take out. They have a drive thru that takes your order in person.
