I went to Whataburger and was surprised it was busier than many restaurants these days. Everything and everyone seemed to just flow. It was like it was a staged set on tv with extras and yes a manager delivering condiments from table to table. I ordered a #1 with onion rings & a chocolate shake. I then got the fish sandwich, (limited time only for lent) W/ french fries, and a vanilla shake. I also edited a kids cheeseburger and an apple pie. The #1 Whataburger was good and tasty and the onion rings spectacular as always. I was curious about the fish and overall it was tasty with nice crunch. I will say however that it could have used a bit more tartar sauce to make it a great sandwich. The fries were pretty good but a little bit on the sorter side, (I like my fries more crispy or at least close). I tried the kids cheeseburger and it was cold and dry. read more

Walked in tonight with one thing in mind, GC double cheeseburger. Placed order upfront, not in drive thru, 1/28/26 @7:30..Sat and waited for order to be made, Order comes out relatively fast. Head the 5 miles home to relax and indulge. Open up the bag and lift my soon to be gone burger. Come to find out it is the smallest single patty burger with no green chile, no cheese, no double patty, no nothing?! do I drive all the way back now to exchange the order, or suck up the cost I paid for one burger that I really wanted and didn't get? Gonna be a long time before I give this place another shot again.. Tom read more

Okay, sooooo, I'll be honest, I'm from SoCal traveling America & I always hear that the Texas Whataburger is like our In-n-Out. Huh, No. Sorry. So we wanted to try it hearing good things about it. Also, I instantly noticed a huge difference, there wasn't a ridiculous line to get this food, or even a line. Actually as soon as we got in we were greeted by the manager. A awesome, funny guy. We asked what's really good. He replied One of everything! Lol. My husband said Oh, you must be the manager! Lol. He was really cool! I originally was going to put 3 stars because their food is Meh, but he bumped it up to 4. First I had their normal cheeseburger and it was good. Wasn't great, but it was good. I had gotten a Dr.Pepper shake & THAT was delicious. I'll give you points for that. In-n-Out don't have that ! My husband & daughter got the green chili patty melt. I, personally thought it needed more seasoning in the patty but that's just me. We left full so that's good. They are better than McDonald's thou !! read more

Whataburger - We agreed, not better than In-n-Out but better than McDonald's. - Burgers Near Me - Albuquerque, New Mexico

I think Whataburger makes one of the best burgers, of the fast food places in Albuquerque, and they are consistent. But these days I need to have a healthier option most of the time. They had a very good Apple-Cranberry salad with grilled chicken. I got this all the time (once or twice per week) for years. But they often had a supply chain issue on fresh fruit (for apples) and discontinued this option recently ... so I took my business elsewhere. I just found out they have a garden salad option, which is on their online ordering system, but not advertised inside the restaurant. Because it is not on the menu in the dining room, no one orders it, so it is a 20 minute wait for a salad. They could straighten up this mess, but probably won't. It is a corporate problem. They can choose to have healthy options ... or not. They do have a Cobb salad, but I am not a fan of boiled eggs, and eggs are not particularly healthy anyway. read more

I went through the drive thru at 9:37pm on 9/12/25 and who ever that chick was handing out the food out of the second window had a terrible attitude I understand being stressed and just in a bad mood but there's no reason for that whatsoever I hope she gets her attitude fixed (I'm also a fast food service employee so I know how it can be) the food was good although we were missing a burger and they fixed that no problem 10/10 service on the front counter read more

4.5 stars Honey butter chicken biscuit is amazing! That is all. Also got the hash brown sticks. Still a bit of a wait for the order, but well worth it. read more

Just had the best burger of my life at the Whataburger on candelaria and Eubank in ABQ, NM at 0200 on Thursday 1/18/2024. It was perfect. Whole experience was peak. read more

Ordered on Uber Eats and they gave me some other ladies order. Can ya'll make sure to hand the correct order to the door dash driver. Double-check it. You guys ruined my day and when I called it in to you guys, you couldn't even apologize. Just said "we can't do anything about it, you are going to have to contact Uber- Eats". I swear customer service is so dead. At least apologize. read more

There are not many Whataburger's in the state of New Mexico, maybe seven or so, fortunately this one is on my beat and path. I have to say that I enjoy a good Whataburger with cheese and green chile. I can honestly say I have never had a bad experience at this location. Today my son let me know he injured himself and wasn't very mobile. So I offered to pick up dinner for him. And this was his meal of choice. Patty Melt with French fries and gravy. The drive thru line was very long so I just parked and went inside. The dining area was also very busy but still had a lot of seating. I waited in line for a quick second and was pleasantly greeted by a nice young lady who helped use the Whataburger app for the first time. I gave her my order and waited a short time before I was on the road to deliver my son his meal. He was not only grateful but also delighted with his delicious meal. read more

After several horrible experiences where an online order for breakfast or lunch, waiting an additional 30 minutes was always a guarantee. It didn't matter if no one was in line or if you were The only person in the restaurant. The wait was always consistent. 30+ minutes. Don't bother if You're in a hurry. It was our turn to Make them wait for my business. Nearly 18 months later, we could Give them another try. I ordered online and Selected the 2nd option for my arrival, which was 15 minutes. Wow, I arrived, checked in, and my order came out immediately. It Was also correct. I moved here from Houston, and the Whataburger service is unlike there. I'm shocked how bad Whataburger is here. Their competitor down the street is beginning to slip. I've had to wait 40 minutes for an online order, but that review doesn't here. I'll give Whataburger another try. Today's experience worked out great! read more

The employees were nice but the order was very wrong and also cold & salty. The messed up the drinks, forgot the sauces & didn't include the cinnamon roll which was pretty devastating. read more

Worst whataburger in the city. I've had to leave multiple times because the line doesn't move for 10 minutes and was ignored at the speaker box for 5 minutes. When I've actually been able to order and get my food, the chicken was soggy and the employees were so rude. read more

Placed an online order for pick up by the time i get there to an empty store just to see a bunch of bozo managers/ staff members taking pics and slacking 20 minutes later i finally get my order but cold food, no condiments as requested. Very sad used to be a good spot but slacking like the rest of these establishments... and what offering me a cup to ease my waste of time... just go to five guys or bobs burgers get better customer service and food read more

Despite what many previous rating would say, I actually enjoyed my experience. I came to the drive through during later hours (~9pm Sat) and the line was long but not too long, and moved pretty fast, which likely means there are many repeat customers or new trying it out, meaning others also think it's good. The food was phenomenal (like any other Whataburger I've been to ) and the drive-through staff was great. But that's just my two cents, I've been told my standards are low read more

Spicy chicken sandwich was actually spicy! SO YUMMY! And they're open 24 hrs, so good!

I hate when young kids are working graveyard shift and decide they don't feel like working. This place always has the same issues late night. The systems magically freeze up. If you can't find employees that want to work then just close so ppl don't drive here for nothing. Lame excuse. Found both employees were out front smoking. Guess their system freezes up everytime they need a smoke read more

This place is always good. Generally busy around dinnertime I don't recommend the drivethru for this reason. Usually best if you order ahead on the app if you have it. Great staff and rewards system. read more

I see long lines at this location every time I drive by and I was craving a bacon cheesburger so I thought I'd try theirs. Meh. I'm underwhelmed. The bun is dry. The toppings are sparce, especially the bacon. It was thin and not very flavorful. I can get a way better burger somewhere else. Sooo I won't be back. read more

Clearly it's a Texas thing! I know, I know, thems is fightin' words, right? Look, this isn't my first goround with Whataburger, and I generally don't bother reviewing fast food chains, but I just felt like weighing in on the hype. And to preface, recently I discovered my new favorite fast food burger in Culver's! Seriously, the bomb! Anyway, I was in the mood for a big juicy burger, something I hadn't had in a while and when driving there they were. Answering the call, one would think... but a las, I was disappointed. Service was good, so they got that goin' for them, but once I got that burger home? Smashed, dry, too much mustard, just wrong in so many ways. When I compare all the chain guys, I'd probably even prefer McD's double quarter pounder over this. I know, right? Crazy talk! On an aside, the king is indeed Culver's, followed by In & Out, then maybe 5 Guys, then take your pick with the rest, but good ol' Griff's is really high on my local list. Nevertheless, these are arguable lists worthy of debate all day long, and the moral of the story is, thank goodness we all have different taste. Cheers! read more

Second or third time here where the restaurant is freezing. Several customers were waiting outside for their food because it was so cold in there. Complained to the manager and she said it was because the cooks in the kitchen were hot. That's a hell of a way to run a business. read more

Nasty racist employees. Didn't like my accent was extremely rude to my girlfriend and her sister they're Korean.Took over an hour to get food. Even then it was cold. The restaurant was trashed look like it hadn't been cleaned in months. read more

Just wanted to give a shout out to Debbie for always greeting me and taking my order. The restaurant is kept clean and the food is cooked relatively quickly. Quality is consistent and the burgers are huge! read more

The best whataburger location in the city. Clean and super friendly environment! Very happy to be here!

Tonight will be my last visit to this location. The last four times I've ordered, my order has been incorrect. On one of those occasions I ordered on the mobile app for pickup, checked in and waited nearly 40 minutes for my order before I went inside and was handed an order that had been sitting there cold and forgotten. I asked that it be remade because it had been sitting there for over an hour at that point, and they staff treated me like it was my fault. Today I ordered, clarified my order and I still received my order incorrectly. There was also a full staff with several workers just standing around with nothing to do and distracting the folks who are actually working. I've given them way too many chances and I'm finally done with them. read more

Not my store I usually go to.. but the overnight manager wasn't even welcoming to begin with. Mumbling over the intercom, mumbles my total when I got to the window. DID NOT EVEN TELL WHICH SOFT DrINk was which. As he gave me my order.. I asked for Spicy Ketchup, RUDE RESPONSE... "it's both in there" I thanked them, but that is the first and last time I'm going to that location. IF YOU DONT WANT TO BE A MANAGER OR WORK THERE quit! I'm pretty sure there are more people that would like that position. read more

This Whataburger is the worst place to have a hamburger. The bun was not fresh. The hamburger was not warm and the cheese not melted. The frys tasted weird. I don't care for their catsup. The lady first brought me someone else's food and them brought mine. I will never go back! read more

Foods alright but Ive got issues with your fries. EVERY. SINGLE. TIME. I order from this location my french fries are upside down in the bag. Do yall train your employees to do that ?! Its SUPER frustrating, ive worked in fast food so I know how chaotic things can be but its NOT hard to bag fries right side up. Can management please, PLEASE address this ?!?!?!?!?!?! read more

I don't go that often to Whataburger mainly because I have never had good service. This location is the same the staff was very unfriendly and not helpful. No one seemed to be enjoying their work. The food was okay nothing great. read more

Now among the worst managed fast food places around. When it isn't busy the food is good, the place is clean, and the staff is attentive. When it is busy all the staff is fixated on the kitchen but no one attends to the dining area. Out of iced tea, napkins, straws, tales are filthy, and the beverage bar is a mess. Tell the manager the dispensers are out of napkins, he grumbles and walks away. 10 minutes later no napkins. Lunchtime comes EVERYDAY and they should be well trained, well managed, and ready for it... not surprised when it happens. read more

Finally got to try a whataburger while in town ( I'm visiting the area for a Breaking Bad Tour). The fries were alright, nothing special. I got a double whataburger and it tasted good. Next time I will order it without mustard. I still prefer my San Diego In & Outs! read more

Whataburger - Double whataburger and fries - Burgers Near Me - Albuquerque, New Mexico

Although my experience with this store is normally very good, my experience last night was awful. After a long wait in the drive up I finally got my order. The onion rings barely warm, the malt was very thin and the burger was put together very poorly and was barely edible because of its lukewarm temperature. I ended up throwing the last one third of it away. Because my previous experience has been good, I will be back. But, if this had been my first time I would never have returned read more

Come here a couple of times and things have either been forgotten or wrong, I understand they're busy so no hate or disrespect just upsetting is all. read more

Super long wait in the drive-thru today. Would be nice if the fries could be hot once in a while.

Amazing experiences! Come here with large groups several time and they are always accommodating!

HORRIBLE service. Horrible food. HORRIBLE HORRIBLE WAIT. Theres no excuse. Close the doors if you can't handle the heat!! It's been a year now & 3 separate opportunities for Whataburger to get things right-not going to happen. Waiting 45 minutes for a burger & then when we get the food it's not even warm!! Unbelievable. Totally unbelievable! It's not an issue of being short staffed, it's a leadership issue & concern. You owe everyone in your community who's attempted to bring business to you, despite being treated poorly & getting crappy food, a HOT, delicious meal. MAKE SOME CHANGES!! read more

This Whataburger location is slower than Moses. I sent my husband out for burgers and I bet that Jesus comes back before he does. 3 stars for spicy ketchup though. read more

I went here last night for a burger and fries. This morning I've been sick for hours. Idk why my body rejected this food, but I feel so bad right now read more

I feel good giving this Whataburger 1 star. This location is well maintained and clean inside and out. My wife's shop is near by and every once and a while I get a green chili double. The bread at this one never seems to be fresh and the veggies are not crisp at all. I don't have very high expectations when patronizing a fast food restaurant. The key to that statement is fast. I think if you use the number system that they have on the menu board you will have a better chance of getting most of your order right. I am allergic to raw onions and cannot absolutely eat them at all. Every time I have ordered food at this Whataburger I ask for no onions and every time I end up remaking the burger I just paid for so I do not get an allergic reaction. At around $6.50 for a burger they are priced at least a dollar more than the other chains. Rex's one of the best burgers in Albuquerque charge less and completely blow Whataburger out of the water. I wish they had a drive through for the days that my paralysis acts up. Whataburger is at the top of the burger fast food chain. Avoid this location and go to the other ones located here in the burque. I have never had a bad experience at the other locations. The latest visit to 9500 Candelaria had the cashier rolling her eyes at me to my face while I hurriedly dug for exact change. Give people a total before directing them to the window if you don't want to wait for them to get their money. The woman at the pickup window did not know my order and asked me what I ordered. When I presented my receipt to her she took it and did not give it back. Rude and incompetent staff. I waited 30 minutes in the drive through for 2 burgers and a melted shake and paid $17 for horrible service and mediocre food. If you have a craving for Whataburger drive over to the osuna or Carlisle locations. You won't have to wait a half hour for your food and it will be of much better quality. read more

We wanted a quick and easy meal tonight after a difficult day. Whataburger came through with flying colors. Our green chile cheeseburgers were hot, delicious, and just what we wanted. Had some great onion rings, too. Last but far from least was the polite young man who took our order. I'm sorry we didn't get his name. Not fancy food, but exactly what we were after. No disappointments with this trip. read more
