Whataburger Opens on the Las Vegas Strip Today | Eater Vegas

"After a long-rumored return that was officially announced in summer 2023, this concept opened unexpectedly at noon on February 7 in a two-story, 10,000-square-foot Las Vegas Boulevard building and operates 24 hours a day, seven days a week. The spacious outpost seats more than 315 across two levels and a wraparound terrace with Strip views, and features leather-upholstered loft seating, multiple bars, hundreds of TVs for game viewing, and plans for a robust beer and frozen-cocktail program (including roughly 120 taps and numerous frozen cocktail machines once fully licensed). Guests can order from both brands sharing the space at a central counter, bars, or forthcoming self-serve kiosks; there is no table-minimum or special watch-party ticket required. The menu includes the chain’s standard offerings—notably 5-inch patties, chicken sandwiches, sides, desserts and all-day service—with a Vegas-exclusive hatch green chile bacon burger and breakfast items served approximately 11 p.m.–11 a.m. (making it convenient for late-night clubgoers). The location is street-accessible without entering a casino, though foot traffic and long queues are expected; visitors driving are advised to use nearby Aria self-parking and walk to the freestanding building." - Janna Karel
