they are so nice. even wrote the WiFi password on paper for us. clean. like the big menu because I'm blind. will come back tomorrow.

I disagree with the girl who gave this place a MID at best, I think its pretty amazing. The staff is very friendly and will suggest an item if you're stumped. The burger is by far that MAC DADDY of the Allen burger world and deserves respect. The place is clean and new and stylish. Watch for the coupons on DoorDash, we got the 2 for one burgers and fries sent to the house as well. We plan on becoming regulars! Two thumbs up! read more

The food was very good and the service was fast and you know the inside was a casual restaurant place

Ordered cheesy burger. Don't get the upside down buns? Regardless, it was tasty had to add mustard for some tangy. Short a bit on my burger. Fries were good. Not a fan of the chefs classic tomato ketchup. Clean. read more

Bourbon bacon burger, very good. The sauce needs a little work but overall was good. The tater tots were hot and crispy. You can get the burger the way it odds like ordering a plate at a restaurant or make your own burger. They all come with two pattie's or you can get them with one. Soda fountain is self serve. read more

My first visit, but the second for my hubby & kiddos. I was skeptical, I mean do we need another burger place? WOW! It's so clean, the employees were more than friendly and kind (think Chick fil A nice). They were so helpful and accommodating when we needed to mix things up with one of the menu items for our daughter. The food came out quickly, hot and was super tasty. I was actually impressed! We will absolutely be back! *kids menu options were wonderful, our boys found exactly what they want *our daughter had a grilled chicken breast, which she loved! *hubby and I had burgers with various toppings. Everything was so tasty and so fresh. A great spot for families and everyone else! read more

First time customers that will definitely return! From the moment we walked in to the moment we walked out, our dining experience was wonderful. Not a fast food burger joint, but a nice sit down spot to enjoy a freshly made burger. Service was incredible, restaurant was clean and tidy. Burgers were juicy, well prepared, and full of flavor. Tots were crispy and light, not greasy at all. They offer chicken sandwich's and salads too...as well as milkshakes. Didn't get one this time around but will next time...they look amazing. We look forward to our next visit...don't forget to sign up for their reward program! read more

This place is mid at best and overpriced for what it is.. The sauce on the bourbon bacon tasted like dish soap. Rancid. The kids grilled cheese was absolutely diabolical. Extremely low effort. Nothing exceptional here. read more

Burgers are sooo delicious!! Love that it's halal too, and at such a convenient location!! Can't wait to go back! read more

I visited this place recently and I was disgusted, when I walked in there was Indian music blasting in the restaurant. My food was really average, non toasted bun, tiny white onions, and non seasoned beef. The guy who delivered my food was outside smoking 10 minutes before bringing my food. The place was really dirty from all of the tables to the tray my food was served on(even with a paper tray it had tried chili on it), I was there when they opened and the bathroom was disgusting as well! Won't be back read more

First time to a Wayback burger. The location is clean and nice... The food was OK. We tried several different things... But the only thing that we really thought stood out was the red velvet milkshake. I did not love the A1 steakhouse burger... Probably should've ordered a different kind of burger. It just sounded different. But then I remembered that I'm not in love with a 1... So my bad. The chili cheese hotdog tasted like one I made in my kitchen. With Wolf branch chili... Nothing to write home about. The Buffalo chicken sandwich was OK... But my wife ordered grilled instead of crispy. Lesson learned... Get the crispy so that you hold the flavor. Why are you worrying about the extra calories... Reading fast food for goodness sake. . The service was very good. The people working here wanted to make sure that you're having a good t experience. Next time I'll try the bourbon burger... That's what she recommended. I should've listened to her. read more

Burgers here were... okay. Milkshakes were pretty good. Nothing spectacular and nothing that would draw me back here... unless they had a really good promo. The service was good. The ambience was that of a typical burger joint. read more

Best burgers in Allen. Fresh, not precooked. Great service from friendly folks. Awesome!!

Just okay. I was not overly impressed by this place. Nothing terrible about the food or service. Food was decent. Service was great. Just did not hit the spot or vibe like a good Chips, JC's, or Hopdoddy. Would even go to 'In & Out' or Hat Creek before this one. Just my opinion, it was okay. read more

Outstanding burger (fries, too). Outstanding service. Great ambience. HIGHLY RECOMMEND!

quality burger, great fries. impeccable service. for a burger place-highly recommend!

You need to pay attention to a discount coupon from here. Our bad as we went to one in Frisco but coupon was for Allen location. All's well as we had a good meal. We both got their signature burger but asked they put the second patty in to-go box. Two patties is too much for our tummy. Which they were happy to help. Also we got the regular order of tater tots which was plenty for two. The bun was nice and soft and not too big. Also nice on hot and sunny day was the west side of bldg was in shade when we came at noon. read more

Good service and good food. Liked the Buffalo chicken tenders, fried pickles and Mac and cheese bites. It's a bit pricey for the portions, but it's overall a nice addition to this area. read more

Absolutely the best burger in Allen!! The food is fresh and comes out hot. The burgers are made fresh and "your way". Cheese curds are a must. The milk shakes are fresh and very tasty along with homemade whipped cream! We have eaten here a few times. This is our place to get a home cooked burger. read more

Best burger I've ever had! Food tasted very fresh and clean. Shake was on point. My family loved their burgers as well. We all got different burgers and each one did not disappoint. Will definitely be back. read more

Such a wonderful establishment. They had a pretty diverse menu. We ordered the Cajun burger and the spicy melt. The burger was cooked to perfection and they don't skimp on the toppings at all. The owners are so friendly and the seating area is very clean and tidy. Totally satisfied my craving - we will be back! read more

2nd time visiting here, place still very clean w friendly franchisee manager on-site. Based on prior experience we remembered to ask for extra seasoning which we feel is needed. As others note the onion rings my wife ordered weren't as crisp as expected, making them a bit greasy. Fries were fine but again, needed more salt. Burgers were big and messy as advertised, just wish they used heinz ketchup; unsure of the brand used but its not as thick as heinz. read more

This is a new place in our side of town. Whew....it was yummy. I four you are craving a homemade burger this is the place. Great device and my eyes were bigger than my stomach! Will be back soon! read more

Tried Wayback for the first time today. It was delicious. I had the Cheeeesy Burger and my fiancé had the Double Bacon Burger. The upside down grilled bun on the cheeesy is to die for. Top notch service. The owner is extremely nice and personable. Very clean and well taken care of. We both got the Brownie shake to go ... so so good. We'll definitely be back. If you haven't tried it yet ... run! read more

Went in not having a clue. Ordered and waited. The lady at the counter was polite and friendly. Place is exceptionally clean and bright. Food came out with in a reasonable time. Order was correct and hot. I believe the owner came over to talk for a min about the food and such. Nice guy. If I'm in the area. I'll go again. read more

This is the best burger place we've been to. It wasn't greasy. The fries were crispy and fresh. The shakes were amazing. I would definitely be back. Customer service was amazing and the restaurant was clean. Thank you read more

Here is something I never say -- I couldn't finish the food. It was too much for me and that's saying a lot. Really good hot dog, onion rings and fries. I probably should have skipped the rings and gotten the smaller order of fries but it was all good. Really nice atmosphere and easy to get to. A little expensive but isn't everything? read more

Nice service and great burgers! Definitely try the garlic Parmesan fries! Everyone was friendly and the place was clean. My son loved the shakes. read more

Came here after reading the reviews. The menu pictures that yelpers uploaded from 3 years ago are far outdated. Wayback doesn't have these items anymore. We asked the cashier about offering the old fries and onion ring mixed side option and she made the executive decision that they do not have that. She made no effort to ask a manager. My hub and I ended up ordering combo sides, one with fresh cut fries and a drink and the other one with onion rings and a drink. The onion rings could have cooked a bit longer and needed to be seasoned. The bourbon burger I ordered came with an onion ring . By the time my burger was delivered to the table, the onion ring was soggy. The top bun was slathered with their bourbon mustard with the onion rimg sitting under it. I took the onion ring off, yuck. The bourbon mustard is Dijon based. Unfortunately, it overpowered the underseasoned burger. The bacon was thick, but very hard to chew. My hub got the A1 burger and didn't enjoy it. Said the Swiss didn't work with the A1 sauce. The bottom bun of his $10 burger was soggy. I did get the $5 fries and drink combo...but upgraded my drink for a milkshake for an extra couple of dollars. Nothing special about the ice cream. Sad experience. The inside was decorated nicely. read more

Food was fresh, no frozen patties, and good, quick service. Burgers are made to order so it will take a few minutes.

I hate to say this but this place is just not good for the following reasons: 1) slow service. It took us 20 mins to get our burgers. That is just unheard of. Looking at other reviews it seems to be a systemic issue. 2) nail salon next door: the ventilation system of the building must be a health hazard. As your ordering at the register, all you can smell are the chemicals of the nail salon. How much of this is being breathed by the workers, patrons, or the being deposited on the food being consumed? 3) burger: the cost $10-$15 and they're really just bland. First, probably needed more salt on the burger. Second, there was no searing on the meat to draw out the flavors. Thankfully, I had a coupon and paid $5 for their burger. Yes, it's better than the garbage McDonald's burger. But, for the price, I'd rather go to hat creek or any other place within a 2 mile radius. read more

Delicious fresh burger! Highly recommend if you're looking for a tasteful cheeseburger. My cheeseburger was so good I forgot to take a picture to share. read more

I'm so glad this burger restaurant is in my neighborhood. They have great burgers and sides, the restaurant is clean and comfortable. The family that owns it is always friendly, and they check on you to make sure everything is ok. read more

Totally exceeded our expectations. Burgers were juicy and moist and very flavorful. Tots were light and crispy. Place is nice and clean.

Today we visited Wayback Burger in Allen, hoping to find a new burger joint that we can enjoy when craving a good beef patty sandwich. Upon entering, I was immediately struck by the cleanliness of the dining area, and the professional presentation of their menu items. Not yet aware that this is a national franchise, I was hoping not to encounter one of the small Ma and Pa eateries giving off the "going out of business" vibe. First impressions were great and were quickly followed by a smiling and friendly employee eager to be helpful with our order. I ordered the double bacon cheese burger with onion rings, and my son ordered the A-1 Steakhouse burger. The food was cooked to order and arrived at our table quickly. Looking good! The burgers were steaming hot from the grill with melting cheese dripping down the two patties. Fixins were piled on in an appropriate quantity, balancing perfectly with the beef. As I took my first bite I was immediately struck by the cold crisp nature of the veggies. As odd as that sounds, it was a nice accent to the heat of the burger and enforced the freshness of the tomato, lettuce, pickles, and onions. The beef was both juicy and flavorful. In all, it was a very good burger and I was delighted to devour it quickly. My son was equally impressed with his A-1 Steakhouse burger, only wishing that it had been adorned with a little greater quantity of the fried crispy onions to enhance the crunch. While addressing onions, I should mention that the onion ring side order was somewhat mundane. Slightly undercooked and lacking the crispness that makes a fine onion ring sing and bite trough easily. Here, I was a bit disappointed as I pulled the somewhat greasy limp onion from its breading. I would encourage Wayback to spend a little time one day perfecting the cooking of the rings and experimenting with some seasoning to enhance the flavor. In all, I felt the value of meal was good when judging the quality for the price paid. Given the friendliness of the staff, the wonderfully clean surroundings, and excellent burgers, I would highly recommend that you check out Wayback Burger and see if you will be finding your way back to this establishment time and again as I am sure we will. It definately makes our short list of restaurants worthy of ongoing patronage. read more

I can't believe this place is still in business as of August 2024. When they first opened, they were very friendly, the food was good, not great, but good, and they were a little on the pricey side, which you expect from a specialty burger place. The last time we went, the food was terrible, my Wife ended up in the bathroom for the evening! The place was empty too, that should have told us something right there. Indifferent service, lousy food, tiny portions, just not good. Unless they get new ownership, we won't be back, which is too bad as it's a convenient location. read more

Had 2 burghers and chips home delivered. The impossible melt was oily and, honestly, hard to make it worse. The normal burgher was decent but bun is disgusting. Fries, as quite common, were disgusting. We though away most of it. they won't see me again. read more
