CHICAGO (WBBM NEWSRADIO) -- Get ready Chicagoans, a third Portillo's location opens Monday.
Portillo’s is opening Monday its newest location in the Chicago’s Avondale neighborhood, the third location in the city.
To prioritize the safety and well-being of Portillo’s team members and guests, as well as abide by local regulations related to COVID-19, the new restaurant is currently open for drive-thru, curbside, and delivery business only.

The restaurant will open inside for dine-in guests once the ban on indoor dining is lifted.
The newest location's interior features a themed look at Chicago’s history through the Roaring Twenties to the Great Depression and the New Deal. Fun décor includes Prohibition-inspired stills, brewery items, posters of various gangsters, and souvenir representation of the World’s Fair, as well as a suspended 1929 Chevy Canopy Express on display.
Portillo’s has called Chicagoland its home since it first opened in 1963, so this opening is filled with several ties to the city.
To help launch the new restaurant, Portillo’s partnered with Reppin’, a local pin company, to create limited-edition pins designed for this location that will be handed out to the first 100 guests in the drive-thru on Monday. Local artist and designer Ryan Duggan designed the location’s t-shirt, which will also be given to guests in the drive-thru, while supplies last.
Located at the intersection of Addison and Kimball, the restaurant on Chicago’s Northwest side is Portillo’s third location in the city of Chicago, joining restaurants in the River North and South Loop neighborhoods.
The new location is located at 3343 W. Addison St. It opens Monday at 10:30 a.m.
