Portillo's officials announced Thursday it will open a Davenport restaurant in 2019.  The fast-casual restaurant chain, known for Chicago-style hot dogs and Italian beef, unveiled more plans for a restaurant, complete with a design rendering with a "Welcome to Davenportillo's" sign. It'll be the company's first Iowa location, located across from Costco Wholesale, between the intersections of 53rd Street and Elmore Avenue, and 53rd and Lorton Avenue. 

While rezoning has been approved and plans have been moving through City Hall, Portillo's had yet to officially commit to the location until the Thursday announcement. The restaurant will be a part of the new Hanlin's Creek development, which could also include other restaurants and retail stores.
