Since 1950, Whataburger has proudly served a bigger, better burger. It all started when a young entrepreneur named Harmon Dobson had a bold idea: to serve a burger so big that it took two hands to hold, and so good that after a single bite customers couldn't help but exclaim, “What a burger!” He named his humble burger stand in Corpus Christi, Texas, “Whataburger.” Over six decades later, we're still family owned and operated. Each and every Whataburger® is still made to order. We still use 100% pure beef and serve it on a big, toasted five-inch bun. And now, as we proudly serve burgers, chicken, salads and breakfast at more than 800 Whataburger locations across the country, that first burger stand is still close to our hearts.

    Food wasnt anything to boast about. The "wings" were grotesque pieces of nugget that tasted like cheap cheap garbage tbh. Their beef is meh, middling. Just doesn't have a flavor that pops. The food is boring. Its not McDonald's terrible, but thats honestly not saying much. I would say it's basically on par with your average Wendy's. Not impressed with Whataburger. Won't be revisiting the brand anymore. I'll stick to Red Robbin, In-N-Out, Chili's, and BJs for burgers. Overall rank: 5/10

    Drive thru service was very slow. My order wasn’t right as I asked to hold the onions, but I didn’t dare go back. I was already running late to an appt due to the wait in the drive thru.
