A trip to Whataburger is a must-do when visiting the state of Texas so after an exciting (but bat-less) evening watching for the Congress Avenue Bridge bat colony, we ventured to our first Whataburger experience.

What Did We Order?
We opted for the classic Whataburger, their signature offering. This burger features a tender beef patty, layered with tangy mustard, crisp lettuce, fresh tomatoes, dill pickles, and diced onions, all nestled in a toasted bun.

The Verdict: A Solid Burger, But Not a Revelation
The Whataburger was good. The beef was cooked to a nice tenderness, and the toppings were fresh and flavorful. However, it didn't quite reach the level of deliciousness I was expecting and hoping.

So, Should You Try Whataburger?
Absolutely! While my personal experience didn't result in burger nirvana, Whataburger offers a solid fast-food experience with fresh ingredients and a classic flavor profile. Here's why it might be worth a try for you:
- Fresh, High-Quality Ingredients: The use of fresh vegetables and a soft beef patty elevates Whataburger above other fast food options.
- Customization Galore: Whataburger boasts an impressive array of toppings and add-ons, allowing you to tailor your burger to your exact preferences. (Think honey butter chicken biscuit or a bacon & jalapeno cheeseburger!)
- Texas-Sized Portions: Portions are on the generous side, ensuring you leave satisfied.
- A Local Favorite: Whataburger is a Texas staple, and experiencing it allows you to connect with the local food scene.
