The menu has so many great choices... it took a while to decide what to order. I love Gyros so that was what I ordered... everything about it was delicious My husband ordered the Cheeseburger and said it was delicious and he would definitely order it again. It was juicy and delicious! For an extra fee you can add on a side and a drink so my husband added a homemade soup which was cream of Chicken and it was delicious! We also ordered cheese curds (there were 20 of them) and mozzarella sticks 5. They were both delicious but we both loved the cheese curds the best they had a better tasting crust and a more crunchy texture. The dining room is dated but very clean! The booths are very comfortable. They have two and four seater booths... lots of tables too! The people working here are very nice and

If you've been to any Portillo's before, you already know they have great good. The service is fast…read moreand the orders are prepared accurately. I like this Portillo's in particular because they have nice outdoor seating. The direction the seating is facing (I think it's west) always seems to give you a nice, gentle breeze. I think it's only about 5 or 6 tables, but it's very pleasant. I got a beef, fries and a soft drink and everything went as planned. I didn't take a pic, because it would look like any other one that a yelp reviewer posted. I wish I had taken a picture of the seating area though. I go there to meet friends once every three months. It's about an hour from my home, but it's equidistant from the other 3 people that I meet with. The people at the register are friendly and quick. I always use my perks card, so this time I got free fries. I always love going to Portillo's.

I stated I didn't want my money back or any financial compensation, just knowledge that other people wouldn't get sick.

I really wanted to see this place succeed, don't think that will happen…read more We ordered for curbside. We had ordered rolls which were $.75 a piece and specially requested butter. The rolls were about the size of a donut hole and no butter. We ordered the corn on the cob. 4 pieces about 3/4 inch long. (See photo).

Pachamama is a gem! It's small, but cozy. We went there with 16 people last night at 2 tables, so…read morewe had a chance to see or taste what others had. All 16 LOVED the food. With so many people, the dinner was a bit slow to come out all at once, but well worth the short wait. It was hot and perfectly cooked. And there was lots of it. You won't leave hungry. Only one young gentleman to bus, serve, and accommodate us. He kept the orders straight, was attentive and provided excellent service. The owner (I presume) came out a few times to chat and say goodbye. A very cordial atmosphere! The menu is extensive, mostly chicken, beef, and sea food. No pork that I saw. We left happy and satisfied!!! A wonderful place that we'll put on our go-to places! Jim Thomas / DeKalb

What a great gem of the authentic Peruvian cuisine we acquired in Sycamore. Lovely atmosphere,…read moreattentive service and most importantly very tasty cuisine. My ceviche de pescado made of chopped white fish marinated in fresh lime citrus juices, garlic, ginger and rocoto chili and served with sweet potatoes and Peruvian corn was absolutely delicious with its very balanced flavor. My friends tasted 2 different types of chicken dishes ( Pollada Peruana and Milanese de pollo ) and loved both of them. I noticed that the chicken was not heavily breaded which is a considerable plus. I like that the restaurant varies its special offerings on the weekends that they publish on Facebook. I will be back soon to try the new dishes at this cozy restaurant!

The fish fry was good. I would skip the catfish, but the walleye and cod were very good. The bread roll they gave you with the dinner was also very good. 8 breaded shrimp special was also good. Fries were way overcooked and they probably need to clean The fryer. The fries are a very dark color. Service was decent for the bar being packed.

Were they having an off day? They were out of pulled pork and beans at 5:30pm on a Saturday…read more I was shocked to see them open a steam box and pull out slices of brisket for my sandwich. The staff weren't very knowledgeable and obviously not qualified to slice brisket to order. I've never been in a BBQ restaurant that doesn't slice their brisket to order. I get the vibe that the majority of their business is their food trucks and catering. Kind of seems like the restaurant gets the overflow and they try to sell out of the leftovers. Their top selling mac and cheese, just didn't do it for me. A 4 oz dried out brisket sandwich for $7.50 was a shocker. I gather the store has been here for 2 years and there was only 2 others customers that came in while we were eating. Perhaps they do big numbers for lunch?

How much do I love a butcher shop with a bbq restaurant all in one? Is not a trick question, I love…read morethem! This one tucked away in a slow road and filled with fresh meats and Americana. The butcher and pit master, showed me the fresh cuts, including organic Amish chicken, seasoned with his distinctive spices, I can tell you it was a hit with the family. I also got the meat and sausage roll and the two meat combo with pork chop and bbq ribs, yummy. The hot food comes rapped with aluminum foil with each hot item getting its own pocket of foil. Like I said, this is Americana, with that hint of nostalgia come a lot of food for a very reasonable price, including home made salads, like traditional loaded potatoes salad, creamy coleslaw to more adventurous, Shrimp Macaroni Salad, and Bowtie Crab Salad. I will definitely have to get some steaks and home made sausages for the grill monster, and might even try some of their fresh habanero cornbread. Man my mouth is watering just thinking about it! The service is nice and welcoming, and the ambiance is roadside bbq shack meets clean and orderly butcher shop, in what looks like a country store with plenty of benches outside to nosh on.
