Terra Burger, an All-Organic Burger Joint in Austin
I've eaten at Terra Burger prob 3-4 times and I've never had one of their burgers that looked like that (dry). I will say that they have tended to be on the "weller" side than the "rarer" side, but mine have been juicy and good. You shoulda taken that one back!
I agree with the poster about the sweet potato fries being on the limp side, too--I get their regular fries and I think they're awesome, but in picking at my friends sweet potato fries last time I was there, they didn't have any snap to them. I'm not a real fan of sweet potato fries, though, so I can honestly say I've never had any that I really liked very much.

I concur with the dry burger comments here. I went to the second location on 183 and experienced a very disappointing dry burger and soggy fries. Details and photos here: http://auslunch.com/restaurants/TerraBurger. It ain't cheap either.

Terraburger make a great burger. I have eaten there several times and never had a problem or seen anyone taking food back or complaining. The burger I had (terraburger) was hot and juicy, fries did not look anything like the picture this person took. How someone can put up a picture and use it for others to judge the restaurant is beyond me. When ever I hear someone recommend another burger place instead (usually P.Terrys for terraburger.. and they are not organic at all!) I get suspicious if their employees or friends are just trying to fradulent defame them. I am sure if you went to Terraburger or any other credible restaurant and the food was not up to your expectations they would give you a replacement or refund so you have nothing to loose! Trust me their food is great and I will be back again and again!

I should have added that Chowhound thread is a year old, before Mighty Fine, Mooyah, and Five Guys came along. I also advise anyone in Austin to try the burger that Nubian Queen Lola makes (http://www.nubianqueenlolas.com/lolasmenu.htm). Go early before she runs out of fries and expect to be there an hour 1/2 to 2 hours. She's the only employee and cooks everything from scratch.
Maudie's Tex-Mex and Fran's/Dan's aren't shabby either.

I think people have such different expectations about burgers (& Tex-mex). Some Austinites rave about P. Terry's (http://www.pterrys.com/), especially their fries. Which I found to be limp and flavorless. I still think the better burgers are from dive bars or country-type restaurants.
Here's the local Chowhound board on Austin burgers:
