As a Chicago area native, now living in SoCal, I whole heartedly agree with this!! If we go down the night before or leave the parks early, we will usually stop at Portillos.

Los Sanchez in Anaheim. Katella Deli and Super Mex, both in Cypress, about 10-15 minutes away, all side streets. If you wants to venture further, we love Taco Surf in Los Al or Seal Beach. Walt's Wharf in Seal Beach. Open Sesame or Nicks both on 2nd St in Belmont Shore (Long Beach). Mrs Knott's fried chicken. To die for!
We enjoyed the Pizza Press last time too. Great little place right on Harbor across the street from the parks. Great service and my kids liked the pizza.
We are going to try a Mexican place on Orangewood right off Harbor this next time called Mi Casa. Maybe someone else will chime in and say it's a dive, but it gets good reviews on google and tripadvisor.
Yes! One of 2(?) west of the Mississippi! It's on La Palma Ave just down the street from Knotts. It's soooo nice to have something distinctly Chicago in the area. Many of the restaurants that claim to be, just aren't. If you're a deep dish person, the only place we've found for that is Masa of Echo Park- in Echo Park!
I second this. I love their pizza. One of the best I have had. The pizza tasted the same to me as Via Napoli in DW (not that I am a food expert). Not sure if they are run by the same company. But it's often mentioned as one of the favorite places to eat in Epcot by many. It's a must do in Downtown Disney whenever I go.
