    a variety of food items
    Leith G.

    I will admit I was pleasantly surprised! It has been 15 years since I have eaten at a Hartz. I moved back to Houston six months ago and it has been on my mind. Now admittedly, most of the locations need a freshening up on the decor and aesthetics. Clearly there has not been a change or update to the brand so the places look like they are out of the 90s. That being said, this location was very clean and well-staffed. I went at lunch, and the food was hot and fresh and the buffet area was being kept clean and restocked by employees. The food was pretty good for what I was expecting! If you are needing a fried chicken and catfish fix, this place might be for you. There were lots of delicious country sides as well. They even had chicken and dumplings, baked chicken, and fried chicken livers. And again, the food was fresh and hot and the place was clean and neat. That is about all you can ask for these days. There is also a machine by the door for free ice cream cones as you leave (if you by chance have any room left in your belly). So, I would highly recommend this place if you just have that hankering to buss down on some good old southern cooking and then take a long nap! For the buffet and drink I paid $14.99.

    Well this isn't really a review of the food I ordered, because after I seen a roach crawling on the side of the building as I was waiting in the drive thru line, I quickly placed my car in reverse and drove away.

    First time visit to this location as it was the nearest fast food fried chicken restaurant. Quick service in deive-thru. Easy to follow menu & cheap prices. Friendly cashier. Order was correct. Chicken just bland and not very flavored. AUG 2018

    Two nights ago, 05/30, my friends and I dined-in at this Whataburger. We sat near the back exit…read moreclosest to 290. Sat near us at the table adjacent to the door was a man in a black hoodie and black pants who, we didn't know this at the time, was open-carrying a firearm and was playing on his phone. In the middle of our meal, a gentleman approached the entrance near us and when he tried to open the door, it was locked. The man seated adjacent to the door was pointing at the front entrance as if to tell him to go around. My friend, who actually did not notice this gesture because he was seated with his back to the man, opened the door for the customer and went back to sit with us. It was at this point that the man seated by the door started mumbling to himself about his disapproval at the actions of my friend. He did not say anything directly to my friend. He did not tell my friend not to open the door when he saw him get up to do it. He did not inform us whether the establishment was closed. He just started mumbling harshly to himself as my friends and I continued to converse. I am not sure if he wanted us to hear him or not, I assumed no because he did not start doing it until my friend had already seated himself and we had already started socializing again. A few minutes later, another gentleman comes to the door. Same thing happens, the guy seated by the door points to the main entrance as if to tell him that that's where he should be entering. When the man gets there, the door seems to be locked. Again, my friend, who was simply trying to be helpful to other customers, stood up and walked all the way across the store to open the door for the gentleman. It wasn't until he was already at the door that the man seated by the other door stands up and aggressively starts YELLING across the room, demanding my friend "SIT DOWN", "STOP OPENING THE DOOR", "YOU DON'T WORK HERE SO I DON'T KNOW WHY YOU KEEP TRYING TO OPEN THE DOOR FOR PEOPLE", among other exclamations. Then my friend, who is confused as to why what he thought was a random man is yelling at him, asks him "do you work here?" to which the man flashes his holstered firearm and says "YOU SEE THIS GUN? YES I WORK HERE, IM SECURITY! BUT YOU DON'T WORK HERE SO I DON'T UNDERSTAND WHY YOU KEEP OPENING THE DOOR FOR PEOPLE!" Keep in mind he's still standing and just, overall, being confrontational and overtly unprofessional. My other friend responded to the man by saying that our friend was just trying to be helpful. To that, the man still responded with complete hostility. My friend backed away from the door, we all got up from our table, threw away our food, and attempted to leave through the front door. One of the Whataburger employees politely asked us to take the back door instead. Now at this point, there were customers waiting at both locked entrances. But we left. This entire interaction was not only unnecessary, it was unprofessional and not handled with care AT ALL. As armed security, you are supposed to be a trusted professional who looks out for the safety of individuals within your establishment. You are not to escalate situations, you are supposed to de-escalate. This security guard INITIATED the confrontation. It is a privilege to be a security guard carrying a firearm. You do not use the fact that you have one to attempt to scare the people you are supposed to be protecting. Way to lose public trust. Yes, we understand that if the store is closed, it is your job to ensure that customers are not entering the establishment. However, this whole situation was completely mishandled, and there were so many ways the situation could have been handled appropriately: 1) Let dine-in customers know that the store is closed when it closes and not to let people in. 2) If someone happens to not be aware and gets up with the intention of opening the door for someone, STOP THEM during the act, inform them that the store is closed, and ask them not to open the door. 3) Be polite to those who pose no actual threat. Whataburger, do better at hiring your armed security.

He was rude when taking my order when I wasn't loud enough he yelled instead of asking me to speak up. When I got to the window he just stared at me no hello or anything which startled me actually. He then waited for my payment which i was struggling with because my wallets zipper was stuck and instead of being patient he slammed the window shut and stared at me until I got the cash out from my walet. Horrible guy truthfully, do better with your employees!!. The food was mid, the fries were unseasoned, cold and mushy.

It hasn't been an easy road since the business began nearly 60 years ago. Current owner Shawn Salyers, made a plea on social media nearly 2 years ago that his business was on the brink of closing, which eventually went viral. For days the restaurant was packed with lines out the door, and the hype was enough for me to give it a try for myself. I wasn't disappointed and have been back several times since. The food is hardly glamorous and the presentation leaves lots to be desired. But in its visual flaws, there is a certain beauty to its simplicity, and this is perfectly captured in its Mytiburger classic burger. A signature beef patty with mustard, pickles, onion, with mustard and ketchup, there's absolutely nothing fancy about it. Throw in a cheese add-on with fries and it's a solid meal. Then there are the other options: chili cheese fries, stuffed jalapenos, and homemade onion rings. These all serve as quality complements to an otherwise otherwise hearty meal. Breakfast should not be slept on either, since their hash browns are crispy and buttery and has become a must-eat portion of my rotation. The service is friendly but not always efficient. Expectations should never be too significant, so keep it realistic. Cash only is better than credit card, and parking is rarely an issue. Given the state of eateries and the public outcry for slim margins and thin profits, I do hope for more success of this location and its other sister location. __________ (#1) Mighty burger.
