Lol nice. Yeah the portillos on ontario is nice. Good luck parking around there thigh. Probably be best to just buy a parking garage spot for ~40 bucks good for the day. They bumped up street parking recently around there to about 8 bucks for 1-2 hours.
You're about a 20 min walk or a train ride away from the lou malnatis if you're going to the one on state and division

Just drove by the Lou's on state Street, making our way North, haha. I figured parking would be a bitch so hopefully we get something decent.

Their shakes are the tits.
This is gonna sound kinda fruity, but their salads are really fucking good.

It exists. It's Vince Vaughn's favorite hot dog stand. I think on Clark street. Their chocolate shakes have a dry unique flair to them.SportsAndLady;1475650 wrote:Not sure if this place exists or you just made a sexual insult towards me...
Hot dogs are money also. Portillos hot dogs are better though.

Wiener Circle isn't a "great" place to eat, it's more of an "experience". Decent late-night drunk food.SportsAndLady;1476275 wrote:Nope, never been.
