“Our team couldn’t be more excited to make history and open Whataburger’s doors to the Atlanta community, said Johnson. For those visiting us for the very first time, we always recommend starting with the #1, our namesake burger, but you can’t go wrong with any decision when it comes to fresh, made-to-order meals from Whataburger,” operating partner Rydell Johnson said.
The Kennesaw will only offer drive-thru service with two lanes but plans to open the dining room and curbside at a later date.
The restaurant says it is expecting heavy traffic in the area and will have extra help directing the traffic.
