    My husband was craving Habit burger so we recently visited this location. He ordered the double char burger, of course. Since I've been eating much beef lately, decided to go with the bbq chicken salad instead. It looked so good in the picture on the menu. There was a bit of a wait but it was fine. We weren't in a hurry. The salad was surprisingly very good. Veggies were super fresh so was everything else in the salad. Hubby enjoyed his burger except for the mayo on the burger. We even checked the box "no mayo" when ordered at the kiosk. Ah well, no big deal.

    Weekend lunch. Easy parking. Ordered at the kiosk. Lots of seating both indoor and outdoor. Everything we've tried here so far has been delicious. Today we had the Charburger, Santa Barbara, regular fries, and sweet potato fries. We had a soft serve ice cream cone afterwards too. The staff members are friendly and kept everything clean and stocked. Til next time!

    Bday 2025: I was in the area and took the opportunity to visit this location in Lake Forest for the first time during lunch rush on Halloween. Parking here is plentiful but a bit tricky. I was able to score a free char burger with cheese with a purchase: and used this opportunity to purchase some onion rings. Hot tip: down load The app and score offers including bday ones. I feel like each location is different. Not going to lie, the quality of both the burger here And the onion rings compared to the one located in Dana Point and Mission Viejo is leaps and bounds better than both of these locations. I feel like here somethings different and way better! 4/5, the others 2/5. I would come here again.

    Went back because someone in my family likes the fries here. Thought I'd order my Habit "go to" when we used to go here pretty frequently (many years ago). A shy under $10 now. Opened the buns to check inside and as expected the chicken, much like the staff that served us, was lackluster . As you can see from the picture, less than 1/4" thick and probably 2oz (and I'm being generous). Disappointing. My daughter commented "are you remembering why we don't come here any more?". How does this place stay open? Should have gone to Angelo's Burgers down the street. The fries edged this one star review up to two.

    Enzo, Ivan and Zenaida, These three employees, especially made the eating experience here just wonderful. This is why I love coming here and it's nice to see a crew happily working together and being so kind to the special-needs and elderly patrons. Additionally, once again, The meal was delicious as well, please watch the video clips! In regard to the ambience, for me The employees set the Tone. So it was extremely positive today, with happy sunlight peering through the windows, in our chosen seating.

    I usually put the Habit in my top tier of "fast food" burger places but this location is one of my least favorites. I came on a Saturday night and it was busy, especially with take out orders. Since there was a bit of a line I decided to order at one of the self-order kiosks. Why I did that, I don't know, because it always takes me twice as long than if I just order at the counter even if there is a line. I ordered a char burger (no onions or cheese) and a coffee milkshake. I took a seat after finding a clean one; many of the tables were dirty and some of the vinyl bench seating had greasy spots. It took about ten minutes to get my burger & shake. Since I ordered at the kiosk they texted me when my order was ready to pick up at the counter. The burger was excellent with that tasty open-flame char flavor and fresh lettuce, tomato, and pickles. The bun to meat ratio is perfect. The coffee milkshake was darn delicious; not the best but worthy of an B+ grade. I had no interaction with staff so can't comment on them other than they seemed to be hustling with the constant influx of customers. Overall I'll rate this location 3.5 rounded up.

    Took my girls to Hanit today because they were craving hamburgers, and I'm so glad we did! The burgers here are made fresh -- a big step up from other places that just cook everything by the order number. My girls loved their meals and left with big smiles (always a win for parents!). The only small hiccup was that even though there are kiosks available, we needed some custom orders, so we had to wait a bit for someone to help at the register. That said, the staff was friendly once they came over, and the food was worth the wait. If you're a parent looking for a spot to grab a fresh, tasty burger your kids will enjoy, Hanit is definitely worth checking out. ‍‍

    I keep forgetting how good the habit is. Price wise it's very close to in n out and they haven't really raised their prices as much as others which is a welcome relief to my wallet. I typically order online and pickup and their online ordering system is very nice and lets you know when your food is ready with a text. The staff here are nice and the inside is very clean. Their charburger and teriyaki burger are my main go-tos but I've had a couple of their sandwiches and they're pretty good too. The meat in their patties are flavorful and cooked well.

    Corporate sent an email promotion, that said, only valid today. However, apparently was only valid 3 days prior on Tuesday. I didn't notice corporate's mistake till I drove through the rain. The employee Javier pointed it out, but saw I did actually receive it today. He went above and beyond to honor the promotion that corporate sent out erroneously. And made my trip worth it. It's common Sense customer service like this that so many businesses lack these days that Javier was bringing in spades. It's simple kindnesses like honoring corporates mistakes that build customer loyalty. This is why I will come back to this location. Plus the burger was delicious too! Props to all the line cooks as well working hard! Great job lake Forest habit. Ps. You should get Javier a raise, He's doing good by your business!

I've ordered this dish like 10 times and it's always been consistently perfect Also the tiramisu is a must order. The best tiramisu I've ever had in my entire life.

Let's talk about the beef kebab plate. Flavorful doesn't even cover it. This thing had no business being this good at a fast casual price point. But wait, it gets better. It came with hummus AND a fresh salad AND a side of fresh baked in-house bread. I had to do a double take. You can also order the bread on its own as a standalone item, which is a genuinely unique touch. I cant name one other casual place that bakes their own bread. Show up Monday, Wednesday, or Friday and you can take advantage of their buy one get one 50% special too. I haven't tried their sandwiches yet but I highly reccommend the plates, and given how fresh everything was, I'm already planning my return visit!

I don't always eat all my meals at home, so the number of meals I order depends on what's on the calendar for the week to come.

Their deliveries are dependable (and the containers are recyclable). Bonus - I usually get two meals out of each Happy Penguin meal I buy, so it is an excellent value for the money as well. P.S.

I have no idea how they can offer so many choices! There are pages of meals available on their site to choose from. I love being able to have a variety. Other meal prep places I have tried don't offer this kind of variety and I find that everything kind of tastes the same even when it's different. Not the case with Happy Penguin. And the portion sizes are very generous!! I freaked out the first week I ordered because the food was not cold when it was delivered, it even felt a little warm. I reached out to them and they let me know that they deliver right after they cook the food so it shouldn't be cold. Give them a try if you are looking for a meal prep service. You can do weekly plans which brings the price down a bit but you also can just order when you need or want it, no contract. Their pricing is also really good compared to other places I have tried.
