Combo big beef and sausage dog. Spicy giardinara. No fries (they're just ok), chocolate cake shake.

Nice username, rook. Too bad you won't be around for long.

I read it and was like, "is that an attempted swipe at Gabe of Texags or?"

But now I see.

Wish you were right. Been here over 20 years.

Can't wait for the new one coming to Katy. Best hotdog joint from Chicago.

Polish dog with mustard and grilled onions is best on menu. Simple and absolutely delicious. If you really want to lolfat it up, have them toss the grilled onions in the deep fryer for a short bit before putting them on the dog. That order always gets a double take but man is it good.

Username checks out

When is one in Katy expected to open, and where exactly?

Opening Tuesday, 22 October.

Portillos is not good.

The burger patties taste the same as the burger patties from the school cafeteria.

The cheese sauce is highschool stadium concession stand quality.

Fries are burger King quality.

The food costs 2.5 times what I would pay.

The restaurant is for Northern transplants to Texas. Gross.

The quality isn't the same as it used to be but it's better than any other place I can find. Obviously an Italian beef with hot peppers is the standard answer to this question but don't sleep on the Maxwell Street Polish. Never had a bad one there.

Italian beef, hot peppers, mozzarella cheese, extra gravy.


The Maxwell street polish is a chargrilled polish sausage with mustard and grilled onions. Also a solid option and my second favorite thing there.
