ORLANDO, Fla. - Portillo's will officially open its Orlando location on June 15 at 10:30 a.m. following a ribbon-cutting ceremony at The Village at O-Town West at 7715 Palm Parkway.
The Chicago-based chain has had its Orlando location in "soft-opening" for a couple of weeks now, meaning it is not officially open but people are being served food from their menu already.

The new location will reportedly be 7,800-square-feet and will include double drive-thru lanes and two large covered outdoor patios. The interior features a diner theme, with an ode to rock ‘n roll with an electric guitar ceiling installation.
The chain is known for signature items like Chicago-style hot dogs, famous Italian beef sandwiches, char-grilled burgers, and Portillo’s famous chocolate cake.
