    The Classic Italian Beef Sandwich

    The sandwich was outstanding. The beef was tender and all was very tasty to include the buns.

    Out of state Family wanted Portillos

    My brother lives in Kansas and loves Portillos; so for his birthday I sent him an order. He was estatic over his gift! I heard about this on the Eric & Kathy Show 101.9 FM--I never knew this was an option! I ended up sending this to my older brother in California as well...they love Portillos, but who doesn't really?

    Our delivery

    My Yuletide order of the Portillo's Italian beef kit arrived in a timely manner, however it seemed that the bag with the dry ice had popped and small pieces of the ice were all through the box. The top of one of the gravy containers was broken, but as it was still frozen nothing had come out. I think that maybe the kit needs a little more padding or something as this happened last year or the year before as well. Still, really looking forward to enjoying it on Christmas Eve. It has become a tradition.

    Excellant!!

    My husband and I LOVE Italian beef. Unfortunately we live in Florida. When we come home we pig out on the food and it's fantastic to know that I can still get the product shipped to me. Helps keep me from getting to home sick.

    Excellent gift for new parents

    Sent to help celebrate a new addition to the family. A much appreciated gift by mom and dad as they embark on their new roles. Portillo's not available in Michigan and the kids enjoyed having a special treat.
