Hill-Bert’s Burgers
5340 Cameron Road
Austin, TX
Hill-Bert’s has three Austin locations. Oddly enough, two of them appear to be in old original Taco Bill buildings. The restaurants aren’t much to look at, but in a burger joint that isn’t always a bad thing. I used the drive three which is probably the way to go.
I ordered a cheeseburger and fries. The burger was quite good despite the bun being decidedly over toasted. In fact, I was a little surprised to be served a bun that clearly qualified as burned. I burger tasted like it had been cooked over flames, which is always a nice touch. They used a very nice leaf lettuce. Overall, I was impressed and would rate this burger as above average.
The fries were excellent. They were unsalted, but salt was included in the bag without asking. This is an example that other burger places should emulate. Unfortunately, the fries were served in a low paper basket which is a bad choice for a drive-thru. They were crunchy in a way seldom seen and very hot and fresh. Hopefully, I no longer need to define what I mean by a French fry’s legs, but Hill-Bert’s fries definitely had good legs.
I will definitely be visiting Hill-Bert’s again.
