★☆☆☆☆ 1.0 Kyle B · Feb 2026

The quality of food is okay, but their portions leave something to be desired. If I'm going to pay this much for chicken strips, I expect full sized chicken strips. These look like they came off of a pigeon. **Edit: 1 Star. Just got to the tots. Totally unseasoned (no salt?!), stale and undercooked. Do not recommend.

This was our first time trying this place and we'll definitely be back! There were four of us and we ordered a kid's cheeseburger, 2 sweet & spicy burgers, and a classic cheeseburger, 2 orders of fries and one order of onion rings. The service was very friendly, and everything was made to order. Everyone thought their burgers were really fantastic. In all honesty, the fries and onion rings were nothing special, but they were fine. The restaurant was very clean and service was quick. I've always been pretty partial to Five Guys, but in my opinion, The WayBack was WayBetter :)

We had dinner here for the first time last week and was so impressed. The service was outstanding, so helpful and kind, and the restaurant was very clean with plenty of seating. The burger was one of the best I've ever had - I had a plain So Cheesy (just cheese and meat) and it was super flavorful, perfectly melty, and I loved the inside out bun for extra crispiness. Fries were light and crispy and the milkshake was absolutely delicious. Price was surprisingly reasonable - I felt like it was a deal for the quality and experience. Already looking forward to our next visit!

Great new burger place. In the same style as Nancy's or 5 guys but better food. Burger was one of the best I had, onion rings were pretty good too. Chocolate shake was good but nothing to write home about but good none the less. Location is it's only real downside a little difficult to find and get to with limited parking due to the other business in the strip mall where it is located.

Very clean. Hot food. Friendly workers. Great flavor. Burgers are amazing 🤩 My husband and I will be back. Wayback sauce is good too. Kinda scarfed my food down and didn't get a picture of it. This was all I had left to review. 🤣
