For me the burgers are average the fries were okay, but a lot of people seem to really like this place. It's worth a try.

Where can you go to get a combo meal for that price...even the kids meals are more expensive than that. The burger was cooked to order and the fries were fresh and nicely seasoned. It was... More

The best burgers and fries, and the owner and his staff are fantastic. We stop there every time we are traveling 99, which is not enough. I would kill for his secret sauce for the burgers. And kind, I cannot say enough about that. A true treasure.

This local drive in has very good old fashioned hamburgers that are cooked fresh once you order them, topped with lettuce, tomato and onion. The fries are large and fresh with a gigantic portion served. The service is fast and the price is great for the budget conscious!

If you want an old fashioned, great flavor hamburger like the diners used to make, this is the place. Don't plan on being wowed by the decor, the building is old and the inside dated. But Aziz will treat you like family and is always happy to help. They make a killer chili cheeseburger. Thier seasoned fries are the best!!... More

Found Whimpy's burgers on yelp and decided to stop and try out this local hangout. Small, cozy and very clean establishment serving tastey burgers at very resonable prices. Several young hanging out at this location enjoying handfuls of great burgers. Easy on and off the 99 via Tulare Ave. A wonderful alternative to fast food burger joints!

Enjoyed the double wimpy with cheese. Toppings were very fresh and seasoned fries were tasty. Little disappointed that the burgers were frozen but still tasted pretty good.
