Why Portillo’s?
At Portillo’s, we’re obsessed with greatness. That means we’re an iconic brand unlike any other – our food is unrivaled and our people know how to have fun. Our team members often start as fans, then join our family. They’ve turned their obsession into a profession.
People are the Heart of Portillo’s
Our restaurants come to life with the values our diverse and inclusive teams practice every day: Family, Greatness, Energy, and Fun. We take care of our Portillo’s family.

Serve Your Community
We’re not just in a community, we strive to be a part of it. We give back through fundraisers, new restaurant initiatives, food donations, national charity partnerships and our own Heart of Portillo’s Fund, which supports Portillo’s team members in need. Through fundraisers and new restaurant opening events, we’ve donated $1.3M to charitable organizations and raised over $400,000 for our team members since we established the Heart of Portillo’s 501(c)3 Fund in 2020.
