One of the best burger places I’ve ever been to. I literally cannot drive past What-a-burger and not stop and grab me some of the southern amazingness

Good food but geez it has gotten so expensive. $7.88 for 2 hot dogs with ketchup only. No drink or side. Absolutely ridiculous. It’s a shame because I like coming here but I’m not going to continue paying their new outrageous pricing.

Stopped by for a quick lunch. Parking is good. Interior is dated,but not like good vibes 1950s dated, just dated. Ordered a WHATABURGEE with cheese and bacon. The bun was really good, tad sweet taste. Burger was good. Not a fresh hand pattied burger, so it was cooked well. I like my burgers med-rare. Toppings were fresh. Fries were small portion. I think I spent $17, not a great value, but not too bad.
