In 1963, Portillo's was born, thanks to the efforts of founder Dick Portillo. Interestingly, he established this suburban gem in Villa Park, Illinois. Drawing from his personal savings, with a generous investment boost from his brother Frank, Dick bought a 12-foot trailer which they affectionately named "The Dog House". The name transitioned from "The Dog House" to "Portillo's" in 1967. This shift corresponded with an upgrade from their 12-foot trailer to a larger setup. I find this particularly remarkable. To think a small trailer operation snowballed into their first drive-thru in 1983. The tale behind Portillo's, of course, doesn't stop here. To fill in the gaps and explore their journey further, I recommend checking out their website [here](https://www.portillos.com/) or their 'Our Story page' [here](https://www.portillos.com/our-story/).

The Beef-n-Cheddar Croissant was a delightful surprise and a must-try! The lineup carries on with traditional hamburgers and cheeseburgers, chicken sandwiches, and even deep-fried whitefish sandwich.
