Damn, I've never had a Chester's burger that tasted like a Whataburger. As for Carl's Jr, the burger isn't that great. It's all the extra crap you can get on it that distinguishes it from Jack in the Crack, Whataburger, Wendys, etc.
So I went to Chesters a while back (A year or two ago) and their burgers taste like Whataburger.
A couple of weeks ago I went to Culvers and they taste like a poor mans DQ Hunger Buster.
Then just this past weekend I went to Carl Jr's and their burger tastes like a Whopper.
What The ?
I went to Freddy's also a couple of weeks ago and their burger is pretty good, I also really like those thin fries.

I prefer to taste the most basic burger they have just to see if they can make a good burger before I start throwing avocado and onions and all over it.
And yes Chesters tastes a lot like Whataburger to me.
How can you even compare Chester's to Whataburger?
I have NEVER ever had a bad burger from Chester's, Whataburger on the other had is a different story.
+1 I've never had a Chester's burger taste like Whattaburger. Maybe you've had so many whattaburgers that your taste buds have been whattatized.
Try Longhorn Cafe. They have excellent burgers.
agree with everyone else..........chester's is awesome and tastes nothing like whataburger...
Chesters is OK but Chris Madrid's are the best.
Chesters use to be awesome, but I agree with some other people in here it taste a lot like whataburger now. I went about 2 years ago thought it was not nearly as good as it use to be. I forgot it was not as good went back a few months ago and was very dissappointed again.
i'm all about mooyah now (in austin) tho hillbert's opened a new location near my house.
I don't think Chester's tastes very much like Whataburger, but it's definitely not as good as when they had the poppyseed bun.
It's bread and ground meat, so there's not a lot of ways to make it taste different. For me, a good bun makes an excellent burger. There are a couple places here in San Marcos that make their own buns (River Pub, Centerpoint Station).
I like my burger buns grilled.![]()
I worked at a place many moons ago where we grilled the buns with mayo. Turned them just a little crispy on the edges and warm and greasy in the middle. Good stuff. Also simply salting the meat is important. Sounds obvious, but a lot of places forget to throw salt on their burgers while they're cooking. Good pickles are a plus for me.
chester's sucks balls. bobby j's is the best. in austin i like hut's, shady grove and casino el camino.
Yellow lettuce and soft tomatoes are burger breakers for me. If that's not fresh, then the meat isn't either.![]()

I just can't stand a sloppy burger that drips and slides around!
casino is awesome. grilling them cut in half facedown to finish is a badass touch. personally, i don't go out for burgers much anymore. i generally make my own at home with a mix of venison pan sausage and ground venison, with sauteed red onions/garlic mixed in the patties. olive oil, an egg, and some panko to bind.
Chesters was better with the poppy seed bun, but they ARE a step above Whataburger. Ever since I gave up french fries for lent, I don't even want a burger anymore, it's .
But anyway, I like to make my own burgers as well. I usually get ground sirloin and marinate the patties in a blend of worschire, soy sauce, olive oil, garlic, onion powder, salt & pepper and a little bit of red pepper flakes. They are delicious, but even better with pickles, YUM!
Mooyah is way overpriced...at least the ones in Dallas are. I keep hearing alot about Chester's, I'm gonna try it out next time I head down to SA.
Carl Junior's bacon, guacomole cheeseburger is delish!
Bubba's Burger Shack in Houston is pretty bad ass - it's literally underneath Westpark, and their buffalo burgers are super tasty.
