First time going here, very clean, staff very friendly and attentive. Drinks came out decently quick food took awhile but definitely worth the wait the burgers were delicious. Tater tots were very good as well. I can't wait to come back and try more! read more

We really enjoyed that the burgers are not too big for your mouth. They got just what i wanted on the burger and the fries were good too.

Burger was OK. Hurts to even write a review on a basic burger. Literally nothing to write home about. But I will wrote about the service. I was overcharged for a combo when I ordered a side and water. And the order was messed up. When question they brought the receipt over and said I ordered no mustard that when I clearly stated no onion which was confirmed by two others in my party was not accurate. The frustrating, sad part is they took the burger back to the kitchen and scraped off the toppings from the bun and peeled off toppings from the cheese. The rest of my order got cold and I don'they brought it back out. With onions still in the burger and now all over the side of fries. Also the burger was now falling apart. And sloppily put back together. I am still in shock over this experience. You are better off going next door to Charley's or across the highway to Whataburger. Hard Pass on this place! read more

I recently ordered a meal online from Wayback Burgers and was pretty disappointed with the experience. My order was supposed to include fries with the meal, but they were missing when I received it. I had also added two honey mustard sauces on the side, and neither of those were included in the bag. On top of that, the chicken sandwich I ordered was not what I expected. The chicken was extremely thin and the sandwich was falling apart, which made it difficult to eat and not very enjoyable overall. I understand mistakes can happen, but missing multiple items from an order and receiving a poorly assembled sandwich made the experience frustrating. I hope the restaurant pays closer attention to online orders in the future so customers receive what they paid for. I also had called the store and no answer. read more

They closed earlier than advertised online and in the window. The workers locked the doors, cleaned and ignored customers attempting to open the doors. Today they had a promotion at this location. Seems an odd way to promote. read more

Peak burgers, the service was absolutely astounding. I felt taken care of and it was nice seeing my shake being made. Also btw the fries are peak also, which a lot of places mess up. read more

I've actually been to this location several times now, just because of how impressed I am by them. Burgers are top notch and absolutely delicious. I usually avoid beef because it feels to heavy for me in burgers but this was perfect, and the best beef burger I've had! Other items were pretty good too, but I'd say to stick to the burgers if you want to make the most out of your visit. Personally I love the tater tots over the fries or onion rings! Our peach shake was okay, my cousin really enjoyed it but I think I would've preferred a different flavor. Aside from that, not bad! The place itself is clean and fairly open, with both indoor and outdoor seating! And to top it all off, it's pretty affordable as well (; read more

Delicious beef patty- on the thin side so it's a good idea to ask for 2. Very fresh ingredients. The buns taste stood out to me, first time where I could taste love in the bread. They dont offer curly fries, regular fries are good. I didn't try any drinks. The servers are kind and it's a nice busy casual place. Grand opening is on the 21st but they are open for business now. read more

Between an Impossible Melt and Cajun tots on the menu, the spouse and I were pretty excited. As in, he moved to Portland, OR, with me, in part because McMenamin's had such amazing Cajun tots that they are a bit life-changing and he wanted to be able to eat those tots all the time. And he did. And he misses them. These are not at all them. But they maybe could be. A bizarre misstep wherein the tots were CAKED, and in mean C.A.K.E.D. In Cajun seasoning. See the picture. That ain't right. Cajun seasoning is meant to be various levels of kissed onto food. This was a saturation. They were too too salty and heavily seasoned, essentially inedible. My man actually wept at the table in sadness. The Impossible Melt, on the other hand, was near perfection. The patty needed a little longer on the grill; the Impossibles benefit from a bit of heat mistreatment to being out their char. That said, the Melt was super good -- sauced up, dripping, a well-buttered upside down bun (which I find a little odd but still delicious). Last quibble: the Caesar was a generous serving of very fluffy green romaine, sturdy Parmesan shreds, and numerous croutons. But the dressing was separate and it really needed to be tossed. It was awkward trying to incorporate the dressing onto the lettuce, and the cheese fell completely to the bottom of the plate. They were doing a robust take out business as well. We will try the tots again, maybe with a request for "light dusting" if this is the usual offering. read more

Wayback Burgers - These Cajun tots were destroyed by way way way too much seasoning. - Burgers Near Me - San Antonio, Texas

Meh. Wherever you sit, you'll be sitting practically on top of your neighbor because the tables as packed in. Lots ofnapace seems wasted by the "bar" style, low seating by the register. We experienced tots that had been in the oil too long and fries that were barely warm. Burger meat was good, but very thin. Upside down bun was a little weird, and wouldn't have been too bad except for it was overbuttered and so very greasy (and I otherwise love a buttered bun). The Swiss cheese was very tasty, but the grilled onions were barely grilled and not very warm either. Health rating was a 90, which surprised us since they just opened not that long ago - would have expected 100. Grand opening isncoming soon, so we may try again and see how the milkshakes are. First impression though was not the best. read more

Ordered 5 burgers to go this evening for my family. VERY disappointing overall. Burgers were very dry, not juicy at all. Had ordered and paid for bacon and mushrooms to be added on 4 of the burgers, but none included bacon. Only 2 had mushrooms but so few (like 3 little mushrooms) that we thought they had been left off as well. Also, I specifically asked for jalapeno jack cheese on one (which they said they had), but they put regular cheddar cheese instead. Also, I asked them to leave off the cheese altogether on 2 of the burgers, but they left the cheese on those as well. The fries were dry and tasted stale. Will not go back again. read more

This was my first visit since the new management, and everything was perfect. My pickup order was exactly right and hot when I got it. The food was delicious and the staff was friendly and helpful. I will be back soon! read more

This was my first time experiencing this place and uh...I'm not sure if I'll be back. To start, the employees were great and the overall restaurant vibe is giving "mom/pop" or even "hole in the wall" vintage. It's definitely a nice little place to grab something quick to eat. I ordered the "build your own" chicken sandwich and when I tried it for the first time, the chicken was tough. Just one bite and I thought I was eating the wrapping paper, but no...it was the chicken patty itself. The taste wasn't terrible, but the chicken was pretty tough. Outside of that, I'd say to give it atleast 1 try and then decide for yourself. read more

This place was really good, very clean. It wasn't a diner but there's a sitting area that looks like an old school diner. The menu is pricey but you get what you pay for, because the burgers are really good along with the fries and I got a Cinnamon Toast Crunch milk shake. That milkshake was phenomenal! I loved it I wish they had bigger sizes, I want more of it. The drawback to coming here is the wait time, luckily I had an hour lunch, but yeah it does feel like a long time. I do recommend it though read more

Pulling up, wasn't sure if location was open. Walked in and was greeted right away by M. Lorenzo who also took my order. The transaction went smoothly and fast. Didn't wait too long for my meal and oh my goodness was it good!!! My next time back I'll have to try a shake. Those look amazing. read more

Wayback Burgers - Chess burger with Bacon and Cajun Tots - Burgers Near Me - San Antonio, Texas

Came on a Saturday evening and they were pretty dead. It was our first time and we were offered coupons by one of the employees, which was nice. The place seemed trendy and prices high but we were excited to try a few items from the menu. Onion rings and tater tots were lukewarm and the tots were supposedly Cajun but didn't taste like such. My companion observed that it looked like they were double dipped in grease. The burger was mushy and bread was old and fell apart as I tried eating it. I didn't taste any distinct flavors. After only a few bites, we ultimately left with most of our meals uneaten. Disappointing experience. read more

It's Friday night! We recently received a flyer in the mail with some coupons of this new burger place. So we decided to give it a try. We first went online to place an order but the coupons didn't have a promo code. We decided to just go to the restaurant and place an order. My husband and I ordered the cheeeesy burger and my son the rodeo burger. We also added the Mac n cheese bites that were so cheesy good and O-fries that were delicious. Overall the food was delicious This place is new with friendly staff and the wait was a bit long but our food was fresh and tasty! read more

My youngest son works at Home Depot and actually asked me if I would like to meet him for lunch at Wayback Burgers to try them out for the first time. What dad would pass up that opportunity, even though he knows fully well that he will end up paying for the meal. I have tried really hard to never miss any opportunity to hang out with my adult children. Life is too short. Lunch for my son isn't until 3:00 PM, so we obviously missed the lunch crowd. There were about three other occupied tables. The restaurant was super clean and had a nice modern comfortable feel. Of course, that should be a given since it is brand new. There were six young men working there, which seemed like a few to many. They were all busy, so I'll admit that, as a customer, I am not the one to staff the place. The menu has several specialty burgers as well as a "build your own" option. I would have liked to have seen more single patty specialty burgers, but my son said, "No problem. Just build you own to copy them." I ended up ordering the bacon and cheeseburger with blue cheese added on. They forgot to put the blue cheese on, but it was not charged so I just ate my burger without it. I did not get a side, although they had many tempting ones on the menu. My burger was amazing. It met all the standards I use to evaluate burgers: 1) The bun should cover the meat and not fall apart with each bite. 2) The meat should be as wide as the bun. 3) The bun should be moist, soft, and slightly sweet. 4) When I push down on the burger, greasy juices should run out. 5) The meet should be soft and flavorful. I won't say this was the best burger I have ever had, but it was definitely in the top 10, and I will definitely be coming back. read more

My daughter had the cheesy and Mac n cheese bits. She really loved both of them. I tried both myself and gave them a thumbs up. I had the classic and French fríes. It was ok. I liked my daughters burger better. I thought it was a little pricey but I think it's me. I am still trying to get use to this inflation. Everything is more expensive. Great service and the place was very clean. read more

Went in today, asked for the THE BIG WAY. Made with THOUSAND ISLE instead of MUSTARD(which i can't stand). i asked what was on it, the fella said LETTUCE and ONION and PICKLE. i asked to add tomato. got fries/rings combo. got home, and the burger had mustard. a dead single piece of lettuce, and, as has happened to me before at this place...the food was cold. Not drive home in 7 mins cold...the fries were awful. Rings soggy from being cold. Burger patties were luke warm at best. whataburger holds up all the way home. i called 5 times. the number was correct, the one on this site. No one answered. threw the burger away, i hate mustard. threw the fries away they were cold and soggy. i ate a ham sandwich with ruffles. I try to support these new places....but they make it difficult. the kid working there was courteous. i don't blame him. the food process and attention to detail has been an issue for me every time i try this place. i try it, get so disappointed...vow not to return...then months go by i try again...and here we go. read more

We had the classic. classic double and a chicken BLT. It was okay, nothing special and certainly not worth driving 14 miles for. We were headed to Aspen Grill but they were closed.

The food was just meh. read more

Tried this spot for the first time for lunch after hearing good things about it from a coworker, it lived up to everything expected!!. The burger was VERY tasty and fresh. I went with the double bacon cheeseburger and it was GREAT. The dining room had a cozy feel to it, with a nice bartop eating area, it was quieter than I would have expected but had a 50's burger dinner fell to it. The milkshakes look great and I might have to try one on my next trip. The staff could have been a little more friendly or approachable as there wasn't a very welcoming feel, but that didn't take too much away from the experience, we all have those days. Make sure you try this spot next time you're in the area. read more

I really really wanted to like this place but the staff at this particular restaurant completely ruined the experience. Granted it was take out, but you had the whole staff in the back, loud and unprofessional, laughing and just clowning. When asked to pick up the order, a young man from the back yelled sarcastically "oh yea I'll have that out in seconds!" And proceeded to count down from 10. I get wanting to have fun in the work environment but dude, you couldn't even get the order right. My son's hotdog kid's meal was left off completely and my daughters build your own single burger had (that had bacon ordered for an additional $1.25) a tiny nugget of bacon included. Seriously? When my husband called about my son's meal being left off, the phone rang until a voicemail picked up with a full mailbox. Called back and this time someone answered but still took quite a bit. I'd let that slide if the place was busy but when you can afford for your staff to be messing around, you're not too busy to answer a phone. I'm also extremely disappointed a refund can not be given unless I hop back in my truck and drive 25 minutes to get it in person. Overall, even if I was in the area, I don't think I'd go back. read more
