    I tried Whataburger for the first time the other night - it was decent overall. Back in Chicago, we don't really have any Whataburgers so it was cool to try a different fast food restaurant. I tried the Jalepano whataburger meal and it was good, I really liked the fries from here. I also saw that they had a breakfast menu but I didn't try that. The employees were friendly and the restaurant was clean inside. Overall I'd recommend if you want a late night fast food meal.

    OK, I am updating my review for this location of Whataburger. Apparently they must have new management in place. Unlike the last two times I visited this location, the place was very clean, and the food was much better! I still had to deal with a young lady at the cash register who was in training and needed help, but that's OK. We all have to learn and start somewhere. My order was correct, which is also new. And my burger and fries were both very hot and fresh. The fries were so hot I had to be careful, picking them up to dip them in the spicy ketchup. That is most certainly a first. I am very pleased that perhaps the quality of Whataburger in Kansas City is getting better. Every location I've been to has a lot of troubles and is nowhere near the quality of Whataburger in Texas or Oklahoma. But this one, on this particular night, gives me hope. It was damn good!

    We have been to this location 3 times when we visit family, wanted to give it a few visits for a fair review. The only negative experience was the first visit after they had opened as people were still super new and food took awhile, but patience goes a long way. Highlights are portions are good, food has tasted great each time, and the associates when we dine in are super kind and attentive. Kent, he specifically is phenomenal.

    My Favorite Fast Food Burger! It has been a long wait since I had my first Whataburger in 1983 by the Gulf of Mexico in Corpus Christi, Texas (home of their first outlet in 1950), until one finally opened in Lee's Summit, MO. So I guess you can call me a big fan. The Hype: Their opening came as a shock to our midwestern neighbors, as former Texans and followers of the two handed burgers converged on a new fast food burger joint. The lines for their drive through ran through their neighbor's parking lot, down the next street, and back down Douglass almost to I-470! I knew folks who showed up at 3:00 am to get in line for their burgers. I am not sure Lee's Summit has ever seen anything like this in their history. Now that is demand that did not go unnoticed, it even spurred a feature (including the changes in the traffic pattern) in the Kansas City Star and local TV new broadcasts. So I waited for a few weeks to check out their newest offering. Earlier in the week I stopped by for a couple of breakfast sandwiches (a Sausage Biscuit and a Sausage, Egg and Cheese Biscuit). Being the second car in line, I left with my orange stripped sack in just a couple of minutes. The first thing I noticed was he the sausage patty actually covered the whole bun. Next I found that its flavor was not overwhelmed by either the biscuit or the egg. And that flavor was very good!. The next night we stopped by for a carry out dinner of burgers and fries. This time it was 6:00 pm (early dinner rush) and both drive through lanes were open and backed up few cars (5 o 6). Paula, who had never been to a Whataburger, held us up for a few minutes studying the menu before we pulled forward with those same 5 or 6 cars still ahead. As we were in the farthest land from the window, I was a bit concerned. But i watched as a member of their staff came out with a laptop to double check our order and run my credit card. After a total wait of around 10 minutes, my Bacon Cheeseburger, and Paula's loaded up Whataburger with cheese was delivered with a smile. The burgers are actually big enough to cover the whole bun (along with the bacon covering the whole patty), the two handed burgers struck us as having a full great flavor. We both decided that their burgers surpassed those from any other fast food burger in town! Their flavor stacks up well with Unk's, Town Topic, and even Winstead's (Surprised at that one!). The lowest point was that the fries were seriously average. Acceptable, but average. I cannot say enough about the friendly service during their still amazing demand. Our total bill came out to $18.00 and change for two meals of burgers, fries, and drink - very much in line with other fast food burger drive throughs in the area. Not only will I continue to follow that first Whataburger I had decades ago in Texas, but I will still understand why they have been around since 1950.
