Wahlburgers - Key West

We visited just two days before this location shut down, and I'm truly puzzled as to why it closed. The spot had everything: a fantastic atmosphere, attentive service, delicious food, and friendly staff. Everyone in our group loved their meals.

Whole experience was good. Staff was friendly. Service was quick. Our server was so friendly and polite. Was very attentive to our needs and the needs of our kids. It was awesome. The food was so good. Would highly recommend.

So, I had never eaten at a whalburgers before. I always wanted to cause my wife and I loved the show. The atmosphere wasn’t very special. Just looked like a regular place, but had pics of the brothers. I did see a pic of Mom. She seemed (and I’m sure was) like such a sweet and wonderful person. The food was a bit disappointing. I ordered a chicken sandwich and my wife ordered the main burger. Can’t remember the name of it. My chicken sandwich looked delicious, but once I bit into it…I thought I received the fish sandwich. Even looking at the bite marks exposing the meat looked like fish. I thought I was going crazy and had to ask my wife what it looked like. She thought fish too. I had to take the meat out and cut it in half just to make sure it was chicken. It was. Prevention…5 stars…taste…1. Average 3. Her burger…same. Looked great. Flavor….very bland. Service….well…when we did get it…very, VERY underwhelming. Got our menus…waited 5 minutes. Got our server…waited 5 minutes. Ordered our drinks…got it in two…got our food 5 minutes later..didn’t see our sever again until after we were done. Didn’t check on us. Didn’t ask if we wanted a refill. Nothing. And it wasn’t a busy day. Maybe 4 other tables had people. And it looked like we were the only one he was waiting on.Needles to say…I probably won’t be rushing to a whalburgers anytime soon based on this experience. I may go to one next time I’m in a town that has one, if anyone one I’m with really wants to try it out.

On Sunday’s, the restaurant closes at 9pm ET. On 04 June the manager, Rhonda, comes to the bar at 830pm ET and tells the bartender last call. At 838pm ET , the same manager comes back and says, “last call” and proceeds to turn the lights all the way up. 6 of the 12 guests just arrived and were ordering. I’ve never felt more uncomfortable being in a restaurant and feeling like an inconvenience. Our server/bartender was great and the food is always excellent at this location. Rhonda has got to go!! Pictured is Rhonda upset guests are still in the restaurant before it closes ? second picture are all the lights turned up to tell everyone to leave. Third picture, my amazing burger!
