I can't say that I can really distinguish the peppers and cheese in it, but it did have good flavor and was excellent this way. I'm very interested in trying it with different toppings. I believe it would make a really good chili cheese dog. For me the onion rings para well with everything I get from Portillo's. In addition, I also got a slice of their lemon cake which is apparently a summer only item. I love their chocolate cake, but this was a nice change with a really good lemon flavor. I've had it in shakes before, but I don't think I've ever had the cake on its own. I always get good food from Portillo's but I do have a couple of tips on certain items you might order from the menu. First, if you order a gravy bread and you like it, wet throughout than order, it extra dipped with a side of gravy. This way, if they don't open your bread to dip it, you have plenty of gravy to enjoy. Second, I got some advice on their burgers to hopefully make them less greasy. Apparently they are supposed to flip them several times to remove excess grease but you can ask that they flip them 15 to 20 times which may make a difference. I haven't tried this one yet, but I will give it a shot. I still feel that both of these are training issues that need to be worked on internally.

It took a while but I finally decided to try a Firehouse Salad. I know... what took me so long?…read more Well... yes it's a mainly a sub place, so when you're hungry and want a sub, Firehouse may come to mind. I went with the Firehouse Salad with Turkey and it didn't disappoint. It was a carryout order so when I got home and opened it up, I was surprised at how full and generous the bowl of salad was. There's no skimping on the ingredients. I ate half for lunch and saved the other half for dinner. Since I'm trying to eat a little healthier, I plan on trying the other salad choices as well. The price was comparable to other places serving large salads and since it was two meals for me, the price was worth it. Another thing I like about Firehouse is the fact that it's always clean and well kept inside. Cleanliness does matter to me and it's one of the first things I notice when I enter a food establishment. If you're trying to eat healthier or if a salad sounds good for a change, give Firehouse Salads a try.

My BIL brought a cake for his daughter's impromptu birthday and the owner was so nice, he got us plates and forks and helped us light the candles.

There is a large assortment of dessert items and croissants, but we just came for the drinks and food. Highly recommend!

Review #527 Tuesday,…read more12/16/2025 This is My Updated Review for this Bagel and Coffee Business. My previous review was back on 3/11/2022 giving it 5 stars. The Last time I was here plus with another check-in was for a Yelp Elite Event on 1/21/2022. Unfortunately, I regret that I need to write a honest revised review with 2 stars now based on My visual observations while visiting today for a coffee and lunch sandwich hour. I met up with Yelp friend Laurie for lunch to enjoy a bagel sandwich and flavored coffee or Latte on a cold Tuesday. First off walking inside at 11:30 AM showed a poor "Ambiance" due to unclean tables, chairs, windows, carpeting and counter areas plus the tile floor. There was Only one cheerful female employee working by herself. I didn't see her name tag since not wearing one to acknowledge her here in my review for trying her best with efficiency ! This Bagel, Coffee and Tea shop was cold on the inside so it was uncomfortable to relax , eat and catch up with our friendship chatting without heat. Coffee Menu was not working on the Board Screen so when I asked about flavors of Latte's she replied the machine was broken. :-( I opted for a plain coffee with a liquid flavoring of caramel which she was Happy to mix and it tasted fine. I ordered the Motor City Bagel Sandwich for my lunch choice. She commented that she would make the sandwich first and the coffee afterwards since she was alone. The sandwich was alright but I should of asked if she could microwave it but I didn't, in case the machine was out of order ? The bagel sandwich needed a melt to blend. Pricing for My 2 item lunch was $11.00 which was Alright? Although I won't be back here so it doesn't matter at this point. I felt bad that this girl had to multitask with other customers walking in and waiting for their orders under such a poor disorganized environment. I showed her My punch business card for coffee purchases to use and she had No Clue about it and couldn't punch it for my purchase. Photo attached... So either I'm 3 years behind when it was issued or it is NOT honored or used anymore! :-( I remember back in January 2022 when walking inside how welcoming, clean and organized to relax with a beverage and bagel or sandwich from the Yelp Event and (My Free Yelp Shot Glass) yet today's experience was unsatisfactory and not very comfortable at all. I saw a fly on the entrance door inside which was upsetting! I'm sorry to lower My rating of 5 stars down to 2 but view the photos before and today. My comments are honest and true plus this review explains it all. I should of asked if the Manager was in the back to discuss today's dirty conditions but then has the Manager seen or care about? Maybe this Elaine's location needs their CEO Manager to visit in surprise plus walk-in with a look around evaluation?! Or the Macomb County Health Department. Sincerely, Karen N.

I met a friend here for coffee and a bagel sandwich. First impressions are lasting impressions so…read moreI'll begin with my observations. When we walked in, we looked for the coffee menu because we didn't see anything. The young lady said that the third menu screen above the counter wasn't working. So, I just ordered a regular coffee. The lunch menu was on a small display board on the counter. I chose a turkey sandwich on an egg bagel. While waiting for the sandwich and coffee to be made, I noticed that the cleanliness of this place was lacking. We sat down at a table, and in the corner of a window was a good sized cobweb. So we had to move our table because I didn't care to sit next to a cobweb while I was eating. The vents on the ceiling looked like they needed cleaning. They were pretty dirty. Then I looked at the display cases and they needed a good wipe down. In between the cases on the floor I noticed it was messy with what I think were maybe napkins or debris of some sort. The whole place needed cleaning from top to sides to bottom. When I went over to the condiment area for some cream and sugar and a stirrer, it looked like it needed some TLC. The sandwich was pretty good. I wasn't too happy with the piece of lettuce sticking out of the sandwich because it had black edges on it so I just pulled that out so it would look more appealing before I took my first bite. The young lady that took our order was very friendly and she did a fine job of taking care of us. To me, it wasn't a relaxing place to enjoy coffee. The chairs weren't the most comfortable. There's a coffee place a half mile to the south and that will be the next place I'll try. There's also another ice cream place a mile to the east which I'd choose. This unfortunately was a one and done.
