STOP WHAT YOU'RE DOING AND READ THIS--Portillo's at 7200 W Ray Rd in Chandler Has Just Redefined…read more"Heaven on a Plate" with the BIG BEEF DIPPED and That CHEESE SAUCE... OMG! I've had Italian Beef before. I've loved Italian Beef before. But nothing--NOTHING--prepared me for the transcendent, jaw-dropping, flavor-explosion experience that is ordering the Big Beef DIPPED at this Chandler location. If you haven't done it yet, you haven't lived. And if you've had it elsewhere but haven't had it here with their cheese sauce... well, buckle up, because you're about to discover your new favorite thing on the entire planet. From the second you walk into Portillo's on Ray Road, you can smell the magic--crisp sport peppers, rich au jus, and that unmistakable aroma of slow-roasted beef that makes your stomach growl instantly. But the real moment of truth comes when you look that server in the eye and say: "I'll take the Big Beef, DIPPED, LOADED with cheese sauce. And I mean loaded." Watch their face light up--they know. They understand. This is not just a sandwich; it's a ritual, and this location performs it with reverence. Then it arrives. Oh. My. Goodness. The bread is drenched--and I mean perfectly, gloriously drenched--in that deep, savory au jus, so every inch is saturated with rich, beefy flavor. It's not soggy; it's luscious. It's a sponge for joy. And then... the cheese sauce. Sweet, spicy, velvety, liquid gold--it's like someone took pepper jack, dreams, and a touch of heaven and whipped it into a creamy, molten ribbon that cascades over every millimeter of that dipped bread and tender, shreddy beef. The first bite is not just a meal--it's a religious experience. The crunch of the giardiniera, the pop of a sport pepper, the warm, juicy beef, the cheese sauce pulling in golden strands... it's an OMG moment so intense you might actually forget your own name for a second. You'll hear yourself making sounds you didn't know you could make. You might cry a little (happy tears). You might order a second one before you've even finished the first. And here's the thing--the Chandler location executes this with flawless, almost artistic precision. The line moves fast, the staff is smiling, and they don't skimp. They don't hold back on the beef, they don't drizzle the cheese sauce like it's an afterthought--they PILE IT ON with pride. You can tell this team lives for these moments. They're not just serving food; they're delivering pure, unadulterated happiness. Even the atmosphere feels electric--like everyone in the room knows they're about to have their day made. You'll see strangers nodding at each other in mutual respect over their sandwiches. You'll hear "OMG!" echoed across the dining room (seriously). And when you finish that Big Beef Dipped--cheese sauce glistening on every corner, not a drop of au jus left--you'll sit back with a food coma smile so wide it hurts, already plotting your next visit. Bottom line: If you are within 50 miles of 7200 W Ray Rd, you have no excuse. Go. Right now. Order the Big Beef DIPPED with EXTRA cheese sauce. Thank me later. And maybe bring a napkin--because that cheese sauce is so good, you're going to want to lick every last drop off your fingers. Five stars? Try FIVE OUT OF FIVE STARS PLUS A STANDING OVATION! This is the best sandwich I've ever had in my life, and I'm pretty sure it's illegal to be this good.

I had been waiting a burger from here. I normally don't go for lunch since it takes me too long. I…read moredon't take a lunch so I only go places close & quick, & take it back to eat at my desk. I always get the double double spread & cheese only. I get a fry, but never expect much from them. I would doubt anyone gies there for the fries. My burger was as good as always. The fries were even better good this time. I just wish it was closer to my work so I could go there more often.

We had both steak and chicken, with wiz and onions, and it was legit. Fries were not bad at all and the service was really good. There is plenty of seating inside with a Philly-vibe. I also love that they have peppers and condiments ready to go in small cups as needed. I will absolutely go back and probably found my new cheesesteak spot after a long 10 years in Arizona without a solid option.

In high school I worked for 4 years at a deli making and serving Philly cheese steaks. I have tried every cheesesteak place in the Phoenix metropolitan area and Forefathers is an authentic Philly Cheesesteak. Soft roll, meat beaten on the grill like a baby seal, Provolone the "original cheesesteak cheese", not cheese wiz... Although they do offer cheese wiz for tourists... Great staff on every visit. They're fast, efficient and friendly every time. I am a loyal customer.

I've eaten at about five different Gus's locations across the country, and this one absolutely delivers every single time. Now that they've added catfish to the menu, they've become one of the top spots in the state for true Southern comfort food. The chicken is fried perfectly crispy, seasoned, juicy, and cooked just right. The catfish? Equally impressive. Golden, flavorful, and fried to perfection. What really makes the experience stand out is the service. The staff was welcoming, attentive, and made us feel appreciated from the moment we walked in. Great food and phenomenal service are hard to beat, and Gus's consistently gives both. Highly recommended.

We came in with a…read morelarge party and our waiter went above and beyond to accommodate us, moving tables for us to sit without us even having to ask! He also took the time to share the origin story of the restaurant, which was a nice personal touch and made the visit more memorable. I ordered the three-piece plate and everything was solid. My favorite was definitely the coleslaw, which was very sweet and paired well with the chicken. It also comes with beans and bread. The bone-in chicken had a moderate level of spice (around a 5/10) while the tenders were noticeably less spicy. Overall, chicken was delicious and very much on par with classic soul/Southern-style fried chicken. One fun bonus is that if you order a drink, it comes in a plastic souvenir cup that you can keep! Great soul food place to visit.

I love Portillos! This is a new location and closer to my house, which I am excited about!…read more The first thing I noticed was how much smaller this location is compared to the Tempe location. Plus it didn't have that nostalgia vibe Tempe's location has. But, I was there for the food. I ordered my norm, which is a Chicago style hot dog along with some cheese fries. When my order was called, I picked it up and sat at a window side table. I tried French fry first and it was Luke warm and limp. I had to take it back and asked for crispier fries. They automatically upgraded my fries to large. The fries were just a little crispier and a little warmer, not hot. Weird! But the fries were tasty! Now my hot dog. It wasn't much warmer than my first batch of fries. Plus it didn't taste as good as the Tempe location. It was still good, but I think if the hot dog was hot it would have been better. My wife suggested maybe it's because their grill is new and isn't seasoned yet! Hmmmm! Maybe! But it was still good. I paid another visit and ordered another Chicago dog and a Fish sandwich. The hot dog was the same as my last visit. But the fish sandwich was a different story. It was actually a very good fish sandwich. I rank it higher than the other fast food restaurants; such as, McDonalds, Arby's, Burger King, and Culver's! I do want to try their charbroiled burgers! Although I had the Italian beef at their other locations; I haven't tried it here. So I'll have to give it a try also!

These new locations have been renovated. New staff. Clean environment, attentive service. Exceptional customer service. Attention to detail, New marketing material, and Mobile & delivery pick up OPEN! I have been here twice since they have opened and let me tell you every time I come back, I get blown away ! While inflation continues to affect well-known establishments like Chipotle ; QDOBA has been able to deliver quality food, reasonable pricing, all while staying conscious of the consumer! We need more conscious businesses! I want to personally think Qdoba for having GREAT prices, GENEROUS portion sizes, and offering free, guacamole and queso ! I am now team QDOBA ! I can tell you from working at CHIPOTLE . QDOBA is definitely making a strong comeback. And I'm afraid Chipotle won't be able to keep up. I am very proud to be eating here ! Thank you to everybody working at QDOBA for making this place a restaurant where I want to come spend my time and enjoy my food!

Highlights: I came for a work lunch and even though the place was packed and my party had almost 10 people, I was really surprised with how fast our food had come out.
