    Service here is wonderful, the food is made to order quickly, and the prices are extremely fair. I love that they are open early in case you want a hearty breakfast. They offer a full menu. I enjoyed the crispy tacos. They have plenty of easy parking and outside seating available. Great option if you're looking for a casual meal in the area. Ideal also for families.

    While I may not be too old, this place brings back memories. Bills take out after a minimum day at El Camino Jr High or Sunday menudo. I will say that the food does taste slightly different from what I remembered it, slightly downgrade. Overall love this place and I hope they return to the classic taste.

    Nice to have this place back! Service was fast since there was only 2 other parties waiting for their food. Only outdoor sitting. We went in for lots of Billy Burgers, shakes, fries and burritos! Next time we will get bigger burgers since the patties are so thin for our liking! First time coming back since they reopened, but will be back to try other items. Tuesday special! There will be tri tip sandwhich coming soon!

    What can I say... Bill's Take Out is such a hidden gem. I refer all of my friends to this spot who might be travel through SM on their way up north or south. Why stop at In n Out when you can grab Bills? Their exterior seems untouched and straight from the 1950's. I find their vintage details quite romantic. It really makes for a classic burger joint experience. I can just imagine young couples pulling up late afternoon for a quick bite. Staff is always direct and friendly. No fluff or funny business here! It's a true "in & out" experience. The food is great! Always consistent and fresh. I always get their billy burger w/ fries and a deep fried burrito. Oh.. and a large Coke! They serve their drinks over crushed ice... It's my fav! I really hope this spot moves forward for many generations. Bill's Take Out is truly ICONIC!

    If I could give half stars, I would give this place 3.5 stars. This place has good, extremely large shakes. I have only gone here for the milkshakes, but my dad got their burger and said it was good. This is one of the few places that carry malt milkshakes (it's so hard to find places that serve malt milkshakes nowadays I feel like). The shake is huge. It is tall (maybe the length of your forearm) and about as thick as both your hands making a circle with the thumb and middle finger. The milkshake is good and delicious. It is not super thick where it is a lung workout to suck up the milkshake. The price of the milkshake is only $5 for the large, which is pretty cheap and affordable, which I like. This place gets dinged because of Covid safety. The employees wear masks, but social distancing isn't exactly enforced. Masks are not exactly enforced as well. During my last experience here, I witnessed one of the cooks pouring water over their hand over the hamburger, which is quite disgusting when you think about it. I also witnessed two people going to order, and one of them was not wearing a mask while ordering, which unfortunately my milkshakes were in the waiting to be handed to me, so it was within breathing distance of those customers. This I did not like. Also, this place closes at 6PM, which is early if you ask me. Overall, this place has good food and milkshakes, but it is not exactly the most covid-friendly place to go to.

All 4 of us ordered the Tri Tip sandwiches. The tri tip was very flavorful! probably the best tri tip I had ever had. TH=here was some good smoke flavor in that meat. Sliced very thin, it was so easy to eat. No fighting the meat. Bread was buttered. BBQ on the side was Sweet Baby Ray's. I found that the BBQ sauce took away from the sammich, so I did very little dipping. If I come again, which I hope I do, I will order that sammich, but prepared in the same manner in which they prepare the roast beef sandwich. We took some chile verde sausages home to try, and those have a strong and memorable chile taste. For people who do not like spicy, beware. For the rest of us it is a satisfying burn. It is a pork sausage. Wife denied the purchase of the blackberry habanero sausage, so I will be left wondering about those. We also grabbed their pesto mayo. We will be trying that this week. I think I would have liked it on my tri tip sammich. I love pesto on anything. Place ain't cheap, but what is?

We got to see a number of his cousins, plus our grandson. The weekend was a blur of driving and activity, and then it was time to head back south toward home. We often stop in Santa Maria for gas. Before they shuttered, we ate at Cracker Barrel a number of times. In the same shopping plaza there's a Habit Burger. We decided to give them a try, have a meal, and decompress from the busy weekend for a short time. Ordering went smoothly. I miss their charbroiled cheeseburgers as I can't tolerate cow's milk cheese anymore. Just a plain burger isn't that interesting to me. Habit does have the option of grilled tuna, which is quite unique in the fast casual dining space. I wasn't that hungry, so opted for their chicken strips, and DH and I shared half and half fries and onion rings. Not the fanciest meal ever, but it was nice to relax together and enjoy decent quality food. Habit seems to source better quality ingredients than some other chain restaurants do. I like that they offer salads, but I wasn't in that mood either. The food was hot and fresh once our order was available and we had the dinner break we needed to push on to the rest of the trip home. Interior of the restaurant was clean. Service was friendly. All good.
