This place has good food. We love getting the burgers and piling on all the veggies we want; pickles, lettuce, tomatoes, onions. Also have relish and salsa. Cheese sauce for fries or whatever. Great onion rings and fries. Their lunch special is a good deal. Burger, fries and soda $7.00.

Outback Steakhouse

Reviewed By LarsDane

Last time I was in an Outback restaurant must have been like 10 years ago when attending a conference in Bethesda, Maryland. So When I found out that there was an Outback near our hotel, I told my colleague that we should try this - and especially the Bloomin' Onion for starters. Going here on the Sunday evening we arrived from Europe, we managed quite well to stay awake - a large, cold IPA from tap did help.We both decided to go for the Bloomin' Onion for startes and chicken breast with cheese, vegetables, and fries for main course.Service was quick and attentive, and managed to steer the arrival of the main course perfectly with us finishing the onion.My colleague and I was very satisfied with the Bloomin' onion as well with the chicken, which was succulent and very tender.Checkout with the tablet was smart and fast.All in all a great start arriving in the US.Strangely enough, the Outback website will not show in Denmark (error 451) and maybe in other countries as well - so if you want to know what's on the menu you have to be in the states - or in an Outback Steakhouse. I must admit it's the first time ever that a menu has been blocked for me of "legal reasons".Nevertheless - the food is still great.

My wife belongs to the Landry's Dinner Club thing, so she had a birthday award. Since the Rainforest Cafe in Disneyland went South, we drifted up the road to Knott's Berry Farm and right across the street was the Claim Jumper. I had the produce bar and my wife the fish and chips. Both were really outstanding; the service was outstanding and the atmosphere great. We had a CJ in Albuquerque, but Landry's decided to leave Albuquerque, so we are now Claim Jumperless. It was good in Albuquerque and it is good here. I would definitely recommend this place.

Such a fantastic place to spend some time with your family and friends. Atmosphere is perfect, but can be a bit noisy and worth ear plugs at times. The most amazing thing is they have a dog menu for my service dog. They serve his food in a dog bowl. He sits on the seat next to me.

Portillo's Hot Dogs

Home to America's favorite Chicago-style hot dogs, Italian beef, burgers, salads, and chocolate cake.

Reviewed By moviegal226

I've been to Portillo's in Chicago and figured this West Coast outpost would be pretty similar since it's difficult to mess up a hot dog. I was disappointed.We shared a sausage, hot dog, cheese fries, and a salad. The Polish sausage was fantastic, almost as good as the the original. The hot dog was okay, but their chili is loaded with beans. So gross. Nobody wants beans on their hot dogs! The fries were crispy, but the cheese was just a side of fake velveeta plastic cheese sauce for dipping, not melty, real cheese on top. The salad was awful, even though it was made fresh right in front of me. First, the description on the menu was wrong. I had gross lettuce and not romaine as described, and the walnuts on top were candied. That meant loads of added sugar that I didn't want or need. Nothing on the menu said they were candied. That could spell disaster if a diabetic ordered it!This location also doesn't have proper mustard for their wieners. They only have regular yellow table mustard, and no specialty mustards. That is a huge fail for a hot dog joint, if you ask me.
