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.

The thing of it is the place like Disney World now the website doesn't work. Sue can't ever get your free fries that they offer all the time. I haven't been able to get a free slice of cake for my birthday for the past few years you know why cause Dick Portillo sold the place and now you got the Mickey Mouse Club running it and so they're trying to be cheap and then you got the workers giving less to the people were actually paying for the food or actually intern like taxpayers paying for those workers to work. They give us less so they can take home free food. You see all those people there if you had a few good employees you would need so many people honestly it's like missing world now overpriced the beef did taste good though

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

Five stars. Not just for the chicken -- though it's great -- but because the Raising Cane's in…read moreDeKalb, Illinois is home to a miracle of modern engineering: the loudest restroom stall door on Earth. This isn't hyperbole. This door doesn't simply close -- it announces itself with the fury of creation. It's a blast so thunderous it could part clouds. When I tried to shut it, the resulting sound wave nearly knocked the sauce cups off the counter. My grandpa, who's lived through enough history to be unshakable, heard it and went pale -- said it sounded like "the sky itself falling." The entire restaurant froze. Fry cooks paused. Toasts trembled. For a full five seconds, everyone in that Cane's shared a single, reverent silence. And that's when it hit me: this door is not just loud -- it's holy. It deserves pilgrims. People travel the world to see the Grand Canyon, to visit the pyramids, to circle the Kaaba in Mecca. But one day, I believe they'll come to DeKalb -- not for the chicken tenders (though they are solid) -- but to experience The Door. To stand before it in awe. To hear its unearthly thunder and whisper, "I was here." You don't visit this Raising Cane's. You make a pilgrimage to it. You bring your friends, your family, your earplugs. You witness something primal and transcendent -- a door that humbles all who hear it. Five stars. A divine experience in fast-food form. Come for the chicken, stay for the revelation.

There's a bunch of indoor seating which was nice for a hot summer day. The inside isn't authentic. More like a counter- order hot dog place. But don't let that fool you.

I am disappointed that I've not been here before today. The Village is most certainly going to be…read morean frequent and easy go-to for me in the future. The place is clean, bright and cozy without being cramped. The service is friendly and helpful. The menu is not too big nor too small....just right. We ordered the spinach pie - flakey crust, delicious spinach & feta filling with herbs. Most definitely homemade fresh, not a frozen food service product. Gyro dinner with spinach rice and Greek potatoes - gyro meat was tender and not overly spiced/flavored like, once again, a nasty food service product. Potatoes were cooked perfectly. Soft and seasoned spot-on, obviously made fresh and not left dying under a heat lamp. The spinach rice was tasty but a bit salty. I can assume that since everything is fresh made this might just be a one-off. I am more than willing to try this dish again to test out this hypothesis. I definitely recommend. Please support this venue to assure that this option for an alternative to bar food in downtown Sycamore lasts for a long time to come

I would suggest adding more to the salad for the price of 16.50. I will try something different next time but I think my husband will stick with the Gyro dinner and we will just ask for more sauce and pita bread.

Listen carefully when you make your order - they ask you if you want a pickle. The pickles are good. My wife went with their Choose 2 option, and got a half a sandwich and a cup of soup. I got the regular sandwich with a bag of Ms. Vickers Salt and Vinegar chips. While they don't have the fountain where you can get it, the staff makes regular tours and offers free refills for soft drinks, and also asks you if your food is okay. My wife enjoyed her New Yorker, and I enjoyed the Horseradish Roast Beef and Cheddar. It had enough Horseradish to taste good, and the drinks tasted great.
