Curtis Stone - The Realtor ®.

Here's my take on the new Charlotte Whataburger (plus a little brand context for folks new to it.) Whataburger started in 1950 in Corpus Christi, Texas, founded by Harmon Dobson and Paul Burton, and became famous for its orange-and-white A-frame stores and oversized buns. The family sold a majority stake to BDT Capital Partners in 2019, which helped fuel expansion east. North Carolina got its first location in Gastonia in May 2025 and Charlotte's Albemarle Road spot opened in September. Now the food: I finally went to see what the hype was about. For me, hype often equals nostalgia... people get excited because a place from "back home" arrives in their new city. I didn't grow up on Whataburger (long live In-N-Out), so I came in clean and ordered the Sweet & Spicy Bacon Burger which had two patties, bacon, American and Monterey Jack, grilled onions, and that sweet-heat pepper sauce. I added tomatoes because every burger should have them, IMO. It's a massive fast-food burger and makes you wonder why anyone would choose a basic drive-thru when this exists. For fast food, it's leagues above most though not the best I've ever had, and it still can't touch a great local smashburger (think SureFire at Camp North End or Bae's in Mooresville). The onion rings were fine but needed more crunch. Overall: not my personal GOAT, but if you grew up with Whataburger, having one in Charlotte is pure nostalgia and I can't hate on that

Maybe in a month or 3 To crowded and slow for lunch, 25 minutes for just a burger Pricier than expected Reading may need to be added to the hiring and training curriculum When you ask for no onions, you expect no onions. With the amount of people in the kitchen, maybe someone needs to oversee the cooks. Left a lot to be desired, not what it is in other locals.

Currently waiting on my order from an hour and a half ago, they keep saying it will be right out....

The food was good. The staff needs more training ASAP. Looking at similar reviews I see this store won't be here long.

The Whataburger is phenomenal, and I particularly enjoy their milkshakes; I would definitely recommend it.

Great Food, Great Service, and a Wonderful Vibe!…read more My wife, a friend, and I had a great dinner here! We had a wonderful time, enjoyed the atmosphere, and received good service throughout our visit. The food was delicious! We ordered the Deli Stackhouse, deviled eggs, sweet potato fries, a grilled chicken burger with regular fries, and sweet teas. Everything was tasty, and we all enjoyed our meals. The restaurant had a great vibe, making it a perfect spot to enjoy a relaxed dinner with friends and family. The only minor downside was a bit of a carpet smell, but it wasn't too bad and didn't take away much from the overall experience. Overall, we had a fantastic time, enjoyed great food and good service, and would definitely recommend Bad Daddy's. 100% recommended!* We'd happily come back again!

Service was terrible. The restaurant was empty at 5:15 on a weeknight and had a funky smell in the…read moredining area. I did a build your on salad and my husband had the smash burger. The burger came out overly done and was paper thin. Honestly a McDonald's burger looked more appetizing. My salad was great, but the waitress got my protein wrong, and some of my salad add-ons. The order is personalized on a build your own salad pad, so I don't know how she messed it up. Additionally she missed our only side of tots. We waited 15 minutes with no urgency on getting my right protein and the side of tots. Walked in and all the waitresses were on their phones in an empty booth. It's a shame because I would normally rate this place at least 4/5 stars.
