If I need something quick, Habit is great for that. I usually get one of their salads or the chicken sandwich. I do have to say they have one the better chicken sandwiches out there- simple, but pretty good! Fries are also good, and they have a couple lemonade options that are great. read more

I am very sorry to have to post this review, but I was so disappointed with my experience this evening at the Habit that I felt I had to update my review. For years, I have enjoyed eating at the Habit whenever I had the opportunity. However, tonight's experience was so poor that I've decided I will never return. Let me break it down. To begin with, the value is just not there. I know everyone has raised their prices recently, but I found the value of what I received to be lacking. I ordered the veggie burger and sweet potato fries. As you can see from the photo I provided the sweet potato fries volume is at least a quarter of what it used to be. Spreading out the fries does not fool me one bit. In addition, they did not taste fresh, almost as though they had been sitting there for some time. They weren't even hot. This convinced me that I was most likely eating something that had been sitting there for a while . There was no crowd so I don't see why french fries of any sort would not be hot if they had just been made. The burger was not the burger I remember from the past. They no longer have sprouts, and there was only one slice of cucumber. The burger just fell apart on me and when I tried to get extra sauce, they tried to charge over $.60 for it. I don't understand why that has never happened in the past. The bottom line is we have a lot of choices. In the past, the Habit was always fantastic. Reasonably priced, absolutely delicious and I always felt like I was getting my moneys worth. Tonight, the opposite was true. I would like to think that this was a one off, but I left feeling as though this is the new norm . Sorry to say I will not be returning. I definitely would not recommend if tonight's experience is the norm. read more

Food: 4/5 Service: 4/5 Ambiance: 4/5 Habit has been running some promotions recently and decided to give it a try. Parking was easy. Store is very clean and has multiple self ordering machines which is very convenient. Ordered crispy chicken bites, onion rings & French fries, and double char burger. Everything is decent and acceptable. Burger is good portion and pretty delicious. I would come back again with deals. read more

The female manager at this Habit Burger location is extremely rude and unprofessional. I've personally seen her treat customers disrespectfully multiple times. Today, my sister went to pick up her order. After an employee handed it to her, she grabbed some sauce and the manager immediately accused her of stealing and spoke to her very aggressively. Instead of asking politely, she treated her like a criminal. This kind of behavior is unacceptable and is exactly why customers don't come back!!!!!!!!!!! and it's not her first time!!!!!!!!!!! read more

Kids portion of fries!!!! I can count them! I asked the worker, and she said it's normal and not a mistake!!! read more

I saw there was a new sandwich, the garlic parmesan chicken club so I decided to try it because it looked absolutely delicious. Hooooooly crap what a disappointment!!!!!! There was basically no sauce and the whole sandwich wasn't even as big as my fist. And it cost over $11!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! $11 for a sandwich I could finish in four bites is absolutely ridiculous. Will never ever order this again and seriously contemplating even continuing to go to this restaurant because the prices are insane. read more

This location knows how to make a BBQ burger. Not like Woodland Hills that when you constantly ask for extra you get none. If it was for Woodland Hills I'd never order from Habit again. Encino location and team gave me a location that actually listens and makes it right. read more

Hi Yelpers! A long overdue review of the Habit, so lets get after it and Keep It Real! They have made their portions smaller, and had increased prices. The food is still good, they only have one cashier behind the counter for a busy restaurant. She has to handle all of the to go orders, interact with the delivery drivers, and take orders and ring up sales. Absolutely crazy, you need 2 to 3 people behind the counter to provide excellent service. Sometimes their short cooks, then the Manager has to go into to the kitchen to cook. They are way understaffed! They have no senior discount, also if you want extra dipping sauce the size of a quarter,, you are charged for it! At the Habit they nickel and dime you! The Burger Lounge much better, great specials every month, grass fed beef, senior discount even with their specials! The Keep IT Real Guy! The Habit 1 star Burger Lounger 5 stars. read more

Would be nice to have some dressing with my salad. Tiny cup of watered down ranch they give you is less than half filled and they charge you if you ask for more. Ate less than a quarter of my salad with dressing, threw out the rest. Paid too much to be throwing it out. Geez....include some dressing. read more

No number listed to store is my first issue. Auto reroute to corporate dweebs who have no communication with the store. HAIR in my burger. 4" hair in my burger, older woman in kitchen did not have a hair net. No ice cream but mobile app takes order for shakes Santa Barbara char missing avocado. Never coming back to this business again, go to its competitor down the street instead, never had issues with them. Corporate needs to spend more money on quality rather than media that says they are better than other spots and instead of hiring 3rd party companies to mitigate issues, maybe they should improve the quality of business they run. Richard, I hope you read this you dweeb, you made this experience extra awful by being a sensitive little turd who couldn't handle an upset customer who had their meal ruined due to disgusting health practices. Deleting the app and never coming back here again and I've been a patron of this corporation for a very long time. read more

So I order their new Sirloin steak...it's like $14! When I asked for more bbq sauce..they said they charge for that!!! What??? Insane! Then as I started eating it...I was like where is the Sirloin??? It's all bread! I am sorry but the Habit sucks for charging for extra bbq sauce and not even giving much sirloin in the sandwich. I am extremely disappointed. I want my $$$ back!!! read more

Sorry but every time I had their burger I got stomach ache from the ground beef. Maybe I have a sensitive stomach but so many of my co-workers recommend their burgers that I had to try it 3 times & each time I got sick. Please, try it yourselves & then judge. As i said previously that it may be me. read more

I gave this location a second chance... I ordered at the counter with employee. When food arrived my burgers had wrong toppings on them. The fries were mushy and undercooked with no salt. I also ordered a Strawberry Limeade drink, and was charged for it, when I asked them to refill the drink dispenser they responded that the machine needed cleaned and they said they're too lazy to clean it the past 2 days. So, I asked for a drink refund, and was not provided one. This location has failed me twice now, They need better management. read more

This place is very stingy with their ranch or other sauces. When they do give you ranch, it's half or maybe even less on the container. If you're a sauce guy, this isn't your place. read more

Rude staff. All I asked was Mayo on the side...apparently it was too much to ask. First person hung up on me, second person said no ‍that it was UBER's fault. The staff appeared miserable...maybe you should have gone to college and so you don't work at a burger joint? Maybe just maybe it's your fault ‍ read more

Disappointed. Haven't been here since before Covid. Would like that the service was good and food was good. Lately have been getting burgers else where and randomly wanted to have habit burger again. Went here you have to order everything yourself in a kiosk. There's barely any employees working. They basically have them cooking only and giving the food out. And they need to multi task since there's like no one basically working here. Looks like they are making it robotic. Food was just ok not as good as I remember it. The burger meat was tiny compared to the actual bun clearly they have also cut back on meat. Order 3 meals for $45. Overall not happy won't be coming back. I would rather go to another burger place or make it myself at home. read more

Writing this review in real time. Ordered a #1 - Original Char-burger Meal. The ONLY thing I changed was the yellow American Cheese to White American Cheese. Please see how disrespectful the burger is that I received. Oh and they forgot the tomatoes. The lettuce is shredded wilted lettuce. Sad! read more

I love the Habit, and this location did not disappoint. My cashier Vivi was very warm and welcoming, and helped me out with all of my weird customizations. The food was delicious!

On 8-20-25 I went to the Habit in Encino, CA to order their special Chicken Sandwich, side and drink for $6. I approached the front desk of the restaurant and asked for the item. The rude clerk said to go to the computer at the front of the restaurant. There were 2 computers there. There was a line with 3 people and the other one was vacant. The vacant one was out of order. I advised the clerk at the order counter and she said I would have to wait. She was doing absolutely nothing at the time and could have taken the order. I almost left in disgust at her laziness. I went to the line and waited until the patrons were done and asked him for help as I was not used to the device. The embarrassed clerk came over and attempted to help me. I told her I wanted the chicken sandwich combo. She asked me which side I wanted, I said "fries". After waiting ten minutes I wondered what happened to my order. The lazy clerk said it was ready. Well, I said but that order had green beans, not fries. She was the one who placed the order and asked me twice which side I wanted and she still got it wrong. She then took the green beans aside and placed the order for fries. When I got the order the chicken sandwich was a measly half sandwich with a slight piece of chicken and a slice of lettuce. The taste was ok but I asked for a side of Thousand Island Dressing. She said that would be $1.25 extra. I told her to skip it because the price for a tablespoon of dressing was exorbitant! I finished my lunch and left. I will never return to this Habit in Encino again, after the rude and lazy treatment of this female employee. She also had a puss face and never smiled the whole time I was there. The Habit should consider giving her a lecture on courtesy. read more

The food here tastes so good and is sigma rizz Service here is what you would expect and is like other places When I come here I get a char cheese burger, a side Caesar salad, large fries (dip the fries in the Caesar dressing it's to die for), and finally a drink which I have 25% raspberry iced tea 25% tropical iced tea 50% lemonade. Overall 5 big booms (I'm 90 pounds and 6'7) read more

As a longtime Habit fan, I've always loved their welcoming vibe. But my recent visit to this location was disappointing. The staff ignored me, offering no greeting. As a business owner, I value good customer service, and this experience fell short. He forgot my ranch as well so I won't be returning, though I hope they find a replacement who can do a better job. read more

Horrible service! I been coming for 17 years as long as I lived in the neighborhood. Ordered 4 meals and I got one ranch. I asked for 2 more and the female working there said "No, you have to pay extra in a very rude manner. I white male asked for more to the same employee as I was filling up my drinks and No problem, gave him 3 more. Do better at least be a good human. Disappointed read more

There are only 2 burgers that I crave and the Habit Burger is one of them. I love the charburger with bacon and avocado. Fries are a must for the side. They now have self serve screens where you can order and pay. It is a bit flawed though, because they give you a pager and ask to provide your cell number so they can text when your order is ready. Well the pager never went off and the text went through after one of the workers came to our table to tell us our food was ready. By then it was a bit cold. But overall not gonna hate because I like their food and technology can be dumb sometimes. read more

Ridiculous that they charge .60 cents for ranch.. should be included with food purchases.

Update to my prior review. Food is generally fine at this location, especially the burgers and variants of their burgers. Their phone app now sort of works at least but is inconsistent and doesn't work as often it does, and doesn't offer options that are available in the store (I.e., switching bread type for the bun). The staff doesn't really seem to care much about the customers, and seem to be improperly trained. I was there today, and ordered cheeseburger, fries and said that I'd like a cup for water. The woman at the counter, who told me that she was the manager on duty, said that they were out of water cups and so she couldn't offer water. I pointed out that she had cups for soft drinks, and asked what she could do for me. She told me she couldn't give me one, but if I paid for a soft drink, I could use the cup for water. Or, they had bottled waters for sale. I pointed out that this wasn't just bad service, it was illegal. She wouldn't budge. Two strikes. I won't be going to Habit nearly as often. Their inefficiency results in customer getting the short end of the stick. read more

Terrible. I ordered a Portabello burger. The burger had 3 mushrooms and hardly any onions. I used to order this burger in Woodland Hills and it was great. What happened? The mushrooms were not even portobello mushrooms? The manager, Rosy was also the cook. When I asked to speak to the manager she responded so rudely and said she was the general manager. When I showed the staff my burger the manager said: "if she was to remake the burger it would be the same." Really? Wow, she needs a lesson on customer service. You just lost a loyal customer. I'll go to In and Out from now on. Much better service, prices and value for your money. read more

Experience was wonderful; food was hot and finished quickly even as there was a big line.

Food is great , customer service is also pretty good . Bathrooms were pretty clean to my surprise

This is how I was served my food. Paid for a double teriyaki burger and got a cheeseburger with gross yellow cheese, which it should come with either white or an option. Then, what is that, 5-7 green beans. Sloppy food. Wrong order. Took my entire lunch break to get this food that wasn't even correct NOR enjoyable. Then they say the pineapple is in the at the top. NOPE. If Victor isn't here, this place isn't worth coming to. It also took over 10 minutes to even place an order, so I had to use the kiosk instead, which I DO NOT recommend. Probably won't be coming back here after this experience. Whomever is hiring, they need to have their positions filled and replaced. I will be reaching out to corporate after this terrible experience. Pay for something, get something else, sloppy. I also work local and we pick up here a lot. After this, we will find another place to eat. read more
