  • Let us take you inside two new restaurants in Las Vegas. Zippy's has been an institution in Hawaii with over 22 locations. Now Las Vegas gets to partake in this culinary gem. Whataburger has delighted folks from Florida to Texas in it's 70 year history, but now Las Vegas is in on the action. One bite of their classic burger and you'll find yourself saying, "Wow! What a burger!"

    You can't compare Whataburger to any other burger. The burger's are phenomenal! If you don't want another burger after eating one, if wasn't a good Whataburger. No matter how many times you wash your hands, you should still smell it hours later. Next time try the all time favorites menu. If the A1 steakhouse is on it, get it! The honey bbq chicken sandwich is awesome. Don't forget to try the onion rings and malts. And I know you don't like spicy, but get the spicy ketchup with the black top. It just has some jalapeno and black pepper in it. It's the only ketchup I can eat! Thank God they started selling it in grocery stores. 😁👍

    I love going to Zippy's when I'm in that area. I love getting their chili and would go there and just get that with some rice. I do love their pac meal and their chili moco (still need to try their regular Loco moco). For Whataburger I thought it was pretty good. I would love to do a full comparison between them and In n Out burger. I would love to see them expand off the Strip. Just having the Strip location kinda pushes me away from going there since I don't like going onto the Strip unless I have to.

      The fries from In N Out are pretty blah but they are good if you give them another blast at home in the oven or air fryer. Some people order their fries underdone to do that.
      You can also revive any cold fries by pressing them with heat, e.g. in a waffle or panini press.
