Before getting into the meat of my review, I need to point something out. I am in favor of organic produce. Now, that probably seems odd to say in a burger review, but if you know Terra Burger you will understand. Now, I am in favor of organic produce, but I don’t buy it very often. Why? Two reasons, one, the price and two, I can’t taste the difference. Okay, I should add the caveat…usually. I usually cannot tell the difference. I could go further and say that most organic produce is priced out of my range.
This needed to be said because Terra Burger’s biggest selling point seems to be their organic beef. That intrigued me enough to pull in.
I ordered my usual burger and fries, but when it came to a soft drink I was presented with a dilemma. They didn’t really have any diet drinks and being diabetic I avoid anything else. What they did have was came sugar sodas which fits very well with the organic billing. I chose a small cane sugar root beer. I love root beer and this was better than most. A&W fountain root been might be better, but not by much.
Unfortunately, that was the high point of the meal.
The burger was okay, but it was a very average burger at a very premium price. The bun was nice, soft with sesame seeds (I like those too) and with a little more tooth than most. The meat was tasty, a little on the dry side, but I don’t mind that. It came with lettuce which was not crispy and did little to improve the burger.
The fries were a disaster. They were limp and greasy. They tasted okay, but I couldn’t finish them.
Lastly, Terra Burger has no inside dining area. They do however have an outdoor dining and play area with a children’s playscape. One note…you have to cross the drive-thru lane to get from the order window to the picnic area.
I cannot recommend Terra Burger. I expect better when I pay $9 for a burger, fries and a soda.
