I was driving through town and wanted a burger. Now expecting much I pulled into this wataburger. I was very pleasantly surprised. Not to suggest that the employees at all Wataburgers aren’t always pleasant and nice, but I thought these guys and gals were even a step up beyond that norm. Very helpful and friendly. And the place is immaculate.

Stopped in for a takeout and a quick rest from a long trip. The staff was professional, welcoming and kind. The food was exactly what I wanted. Just wanted to say good job for your good work, and good spirits!

We pulled thru for breakfast. It was really busy. Our taquitos were really dry (over cooked). The fries were fresh. The people were very friendly.

Martin made our drive thru ordering experience so pleasant! He answered everything with “Absolutely” and was very helpful and patient with us. We’re coming from Austin and you don’t get much of the same treatment in the big city. His service was just SO refreshing!

The nicest waterburger I've ever been too! Staff very nice, they all seemed to really love working together. They were singing ( only a couple lines to the radio), and I said that's nice. She smiled and said they have had a hard couple of days, so I'm glad to hear them so happy.!! Food was good. Place was clean. 5 stars.

Another great experience. Stop by here pretty regularly on road trips, and again just finished a visit. Restrooms were very clean, staff was very friendly and efficient, and dang, my burger was fresh and assembled really well. Whataburger for the wind, and specifically the lampasas Whataburger!
