While we&#8217;ve always intended to go there, we had never made it, until last nite, and we&#8217;ve been missing out. \u00a0Mrs. Burgerdogboy had called from her daily errands and suggested a date night, and it was a superb idea.<\/p>\n<p>A bright and cheery space, Three Square bakes their own bread, cures their own meats, and most notably, cures a lot of charming and tasty pickled products that one can find, purchase at Three Square as well as around town. \u00a0The <a href=\"http:\/\/www.threesquare.com\/specials.html\">menu<\/a> varies daily.<\/p>\n<p>Service is affable, prompt, and diners are started with a half baguette and butter plate. We ordered the &#8220;pickle sampler&#8221;, which was a variety of pickled cukes (both sweet and garlic), beets, beans, delicious radishes, and more.<\/p>\n<p>Mrs. BurgerDogBoy went with the &#8220;Low Country Shrimp and Sausage with Grits and Greens&#8221;, a delightful riff on a Creole standard, with grilled shrimp and sausage in a flavorful sauce on a bed of grits and greens. Nice.<\/p>\n<p>And I opted for the <a href=\"http:\/\/highlandoakfarm.com\/farm.htm\">Highland Oak Farms<\/a> 1\/2 pound burger with cheese and bacon, side of fries. The massive hand-formed patty was prepared to my request of medium rare, and the bun was (to me) reminiscent of a fresh potato roll. It comes with pickle, tomato and lettuce on the side, naturally you can request other condiments, but I chose to tackle it &#8220;au natural&#8221; to enjoy the flavor of the beef.<\/p>\n<p>It&#8217;s a damned fine burger, a great value, and was too large for me to pack away at a sitting.<\/p>\n<p>Sunday breakfast is offered, we&#8217;ll get back to try that.<\/p>\n<p>If you&#8217;re craving their pickled products, you can order <a href=\"http:\/\/www.picklopolis.com\/land.html\">online<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/burgersdogspizza.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/06\/threesquare2.png\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-7685\" title=\"threesquare2\" src=\"http:\/\/burgersdogspizza.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/06\/threesquare2.png\" alt=\"Three Square Grill Portland Oregon Burger\" width=\"390\" height=\"336\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/burgersdogspizza.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/06\/threesquare3.png\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-7686\" title=\"threesquare3\" src=\"http:\/\/burgersdogspizza.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/06\/threesquare3.png\" alt=\"Three Square Grill Portland Oregon\" width=\"448\" height=\"336\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.urbanspoon.com\/r\/24\/283825\/restaurant\/Southwest\/Three-Square-Grill-Portland\"><img decoding=\"async\" style=\"border: none; padding: 0px; width: 200px; height: 146px;\" src=\"http:\/\/www.urbanspoon.com\/b\/link\/283825\/biglink.gif\" alt=\"Three Square Grill on Urbanspoon\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>In our hood, Three Square Grill has been dishing up their take on American favorites, sourcing locally whenever possible, for over ten years.
