Today's journey took us to Cover 3, Voted the number 13 best Burger in Austin. I had never been to Cover 3, but had heard good things about it. Cover 3 is a restaurant sports bar, and it is very nice and comfortable. We got there early today, and were seated right away. The wait staff was super friendly and there were TV's everywhere. Definitely a place I would like to watch some sports.
Our plans for today's quest was to go to another restaurant downtown but due to the downtown madness with all the events, we decided to give Cover 3 a chance.
I ordered the specialty burger (Chopped house Burger), and ordered the usual. The Burger is a half pound burger, so wife and I split the burger.
The burger took a good 10 minutes to be cooked and the presentation was nice. The burger is servedn with Parmesaean Fries on a plain white plate. The presentation was nice and the ketchup and mustard are on the side.
At a first glance the burger is very large, and very nice. I was impressed and right away started eating some of the fries. The fries are string fries with parmesean and are extremely thin. I took a few bites and then took my first bite of the burger.
The bread was very tasty, it was a ciabatta bread and it had a nice toast to it. I could taste the meat right away. The meat did not have a super special flavor but was ok, however it was a bit greasy for my taste.
The bread was very good, but the meat was greasier than I would have liked. Also, the meat did not have a special taste to it, or it could have but since it was so greasy I could not taste. Other than the greasy meat, the burger was very good and I enjoyed it.
I would have to disagree with Texas Monthly on this one, I dont think it would be a top burger in Texas, and does not make the top ten cut with me. I would go back, and probably order the burger again, but I would also consider ordering something else. When there is a good burger, I dont order anything else.
Because of the atmposphere, the presentation, the friendly staff and the overall experience I give the burger a 6.5.. Not a bad burger, but not a top burger in the great state of texas.
T-4.0 the meat was greasy and did not have much taste
A-.5 Awesome, friendly staff and great laid back restaurant
P-1.0 Good clean, fresh produce
E-.5 Staff was great, super friendly fast and courteous.
P-.5 Nice delivery, nice contemporary plate and nice look to the burger.
P-0.00 $9.00 for a burger is a bit excessive
