I think it is time for Portillos to build a location in Lake Zurich.


The corner of RT 22 & Rand Rd (US-12) is such a high traffic area, and I read in the Newspaper that Giordano's is moving to a new location which will open up this great corner for a Portillos Hot dogs.


Why is it great for Portillo's?

Portillo's would get lots of potential eaters in the Ela area from Lake Zurich, Kildeer, Deer Park, Long Grove, Hawthorn Woods and North Barrington. In addition, There are lots of Drivers on their way to Fox Lake and Lake Geneva, that there would be lots of potential additional traffic. Portillo's would generate revenue from catering and other daily lunch traffic that they would not otherwise get due to the geographic distance of the nearest Portillos (Palatine, Crystal Lake, or Vernon Hills)

Why is it great for the Ela Area Residents?

For the Ela Area, we'd get a popular restaurant that would bring in traffic to the local business area, generate more tax revenue, and provide great tasting food.


So, Sign this petition to let the Lake Zurich elected officials and the Portillo's Management group that Portillos should build a restaurant in the Lake Zurich area.

The momentum behind this request for a local Portillo's location has grown considerably. It is clear that many residents recognize the potential for the vacant corner at Route 22 and Rand Road to serve our community better.

I've been missing Portillo's since we moved to LZ, and that corner needs serious help. I could bring lots of revenue and encourage other businesses to move into the other vacancies.

We are long-time residents of Lake Zurich and have wanted a Portillo's here for YEARS now! The nearest Portillo's is at least a 30-45 minute drive away and I know so many area residents who would love to hear Portillo's is moving in!

Yes!! Lets do this. Portillo's would be a great addition to our community and we don't need yet another vacant building at that intersection.
