We've been customers since this casual place first opened, usually ordering the salads and occasionally one of the sandwiches or burgers. I can reliably get fresh produce, nicely grilled chicken and meet my goal of trying to eat healthy, whole ingredients most of the week. If you want more protein, add some grilled Ahi tuna. They recently changed the salad line-up and serveware. Lately, my fave has been the Harvest Chop Salad. I like the cubed apples, golden beets and pickled onions. The dressing's always on the side for custom drizzling. Oh, the tempura green beans I occasionally get are consistently crispy and tasty, too. Best hot and dipped in ranch sauce. It's all about balance, tipping the scales more toward healthy than not. The Habit offers choices. Inside are mostly booths, comfortable, with seating outside under patio umbrellas. Busy at lunch, lots of orders to-go or being picked up. Ordering can be at the counter or at kiosks. Fountain drinks are readily accessible. The music, today a bouncy & nostalgic playlist from "Habit Radio" care of iHeartRadio, pumps through Bose ceiling speakers. Made me want to upgrade my home system. The service is welcoming, always efficient & friendly. If you're looking for a good salad, this burger joint has it! read more

Chicken tenders tasted like fish, fries were soggy, burger was like cheap fast food and bun was soggy.

Came for the milkshakes: peppermint and cookies & cream are both very good. Ordering at the kiosk was convenient. Service was quick: they were ready within 10 mins. Clean store and easy to find. Lots of parking spots. read more

I like Habit Burger. They deliver a quality, tasty product. But on 5/17 they fell short of expectations. This is due to corporate decisions, not the friendly staff behind the counter. We usually order an ahi burger, but on that day I wanted a hot burger on a wheat bun. However, a whole wheat bun is not a menu option on the kiosk. So after ordering I immediately talked to a person behind the counter who wrote it on my ticket. But the cook didn't see the addition so I received a regular bun. I walked back to the counter, asked for a wheat bun. About Eight minutes later, still no replacement bun. I walked back again. The cook puts a naked cold bun in a paper tray to give to me. No sauce or pickles included. I go back, tell them I want a hot bun. He heats one, again a naked bun. I attempt to transfer some sauce and pickles onto the new bun. I wanted a hot, juicy burger. Not a cold dry bun with a now- lukewarm patty. I know, not an earthshaking problem. But a whole wheat bun should be on the kiosk menu. Corporate, are you reading this? read more

Uuuggg. First of all the price for 3 meals almost 70.00 plus over .50 for a side of ranch. Then I take my food home and it is not right. No pineapple in my teriyaki meal. No cheese, no sauce. Wow! Do better! read more

This was a quick purchase from this location. Staff were friendly and service was quick and accurate. Bought a peppermint shake. It's was well made and delicious. The Habit burger always serve good food. read more

Best HabitBurger ever! Friendly employees. Clean. I recommend this for a quick, tasty meal.

First time order pick up at Livermore location. We ordered 2 salads & a side. The food was super fresh and ready in 10 minutes. Salads were tasty and prepared as described in website. Will order again. read more

The food was cold, burger bun was stale, the floors and tables were dirty and the bathrooms were disgusting. Won't be going back

It stunk so bad in there, I couldn't eat inside and was very concerned about my food being prepared in there. The burger was not fully cooked, the bun was stale. I will not be going there again. It wa favorite burger place. Oh well, probably greed ruined it. Ron read more

We went there last week. I usually have to drag my husband as he likes In-N-Out better. I like the food and the options of sides. The people upfront took the order correctly, but unfortunately, the back never gets it right I just don't think they read the instructions. You're like our hamburger all done and our sides crispy and they're never that way. My husband was very mad and didn't eat his food. I had to give it to the dog when I came home. The food is good when it is prepared the way you like it. read more

My husband and I are regulars and love our weekly Habit fix! We are always welcomed with a friendly smile. Our food tastes amazing and consistent. All of the staff members are top notch, and the general manager Felicia is a true gem! The restaurant is upgraded and comfortable for dining in. Thank you Habit Livermore for being so wonderful! read more

Review #845 Posted on 12.31.24 We came to the Habit on Saturday the 29th to get a few items to go. This spot is located in the Safeway or Lucky shopping center on the right hand side of N Livermore Ave exit off of 580. They've got kiosks for you to order at, like most places do now. We ordered some shakes, chicken bites, & sides of onion rings to go as we weren't getting any burgers today. The chicken bites here are pretty good for a burger spot. They cook the food to order which is what makes this place better than fast food. I will keep coming back to the habit as long as the food continues to be good. read more

A little disappointed. My wife has the app and wanted to do the cheese burger BOGO, along with her sister. Mind you, she and her sister plan out everything in advance. For example, when we take a trip she always screenshots her boarding pass so she doesn't have to fumble with an app or a bad connection at the airport. Well, same for this BOGO. She and her sister screenshot-ed the BOGO code days ago so it would be at their fingertips when they went to order. Only to be told the coupon had expired! What? The promotion runs through today (21st). It was then we discovered the BOGO is only good for one hour after you look at it. She felt very cheated and very embarrassed. Habit, please have your promos expire when you say they'll expire, and not some arbitrary time before the published expiration. read more

Excellent customer service, great quality beef, sometimes I come here just for the ranch to take home, multiple happy visits

Walking in to store you are greeted with a hello, and you see all of menu items. There is a small place to sit and eat inside or outside, always make what you order perfectly. Will keep enjoying the burgers! read more

While I have always found Habit Burgers to be juicy and tasty, the staff really was the best part of this Habit location. Felecia and the whole staff was friendly, eager to help, and went above and beyond each step of the way. Will surely come back here for the hot fries and yummy burger. read more

What happened? Did they change management? Worst experience tonight. Long line and no one was getting their order on time or correctly.

The most disorganized and non professional Habit I ever been to. Waited 30 min for a cheeseburger with fries. Place is a joke. I will NEVER eat there again. DO NOT eat there on your lunch break especially. You will be late going back to work. read more

I always go here for their burgers, but I came here this time just for milkshakes. I love their cookies and creme milkshake and their strawberry one. The service is quick and they are always friendly. It's always clean and there are many seat options available. I will definitely be coming back read more

Had an awesome Santa Fe Chicken salad yesterday. Big, juicy pieces of chicken with two sides of blue cheese dressing. The service staff is always very friendly, and ordering is fast. The restaurant was spotless, and the pepper bar looked incredibly fresh. Thanks, Habit, for an overall fantastic experience! read more

RANCH!!! They literally forget the ranch every. Single. Time. And not just as a side; but also as a dressing for my salad. That's so infuriating when you get an order delivered and have no dressing to put on your salad. Every single time we order from or go to this location, they screw something up. Every. Time. Last time I went in, I ordered my burger and a side Caesar. When I got my order, there was a Caesar dressing but no salad. I went up to the counter and said my salad was missing and she said, "You didn't order a salad, just a side of dressing." On their ticket when you order a side caesar salad, it is printed as "side Caesar" on the receipt. And who just asks for a side of Caesar dressing?! If she was unsure, she should have asked to clarify. Anyways, I reordered the Caesar SALAD. This time, we ordered for delivery and has specified "include napkins". They gave us literally one napkin and no straw for the drink. I looked at the ticket and on the bottom there is literally a checklist for utensils, napkins, and ranch which made me even more confused as to why they always forget the ranch. I don't understand why it is so difficult for them to get orders right. It's not that hard. CHECK THE TICKETS! Mind you, this review is probably 20 wrong orders overdue. It took me that long to write the review, maybe I was wishfully thinking they'd get it together. Maybe it's time to boycott the place. read more

Always great service. Love these people! Good, fresh food! The people that work here are fabulous!! The Manager Felicia is just a doll !! She is a lovely person & cares about all her customers ! I love the friendly service that is always provided. Thank you Felicia !! You are the best !! Thank you to all of the wonderful staff !! read more

The best time to stop in at any Habit Burger is just after opening at 10:30. There's no line and the food will come out fast. I dine inside as I don't wanna mess up my car interior trying to eat a big fat juicy burger! I get the double Char Burger with cheese and extra grilled onions. Price with tax is over $8.00 bucks, but I suppose that's the price of a fast food burger these days .... just that this one from Habit is worth it. Forget that Whopper! Service is fast and efficient and my burger came out. It didn't look as nice as I've had in the past with all the meat and melted cheese pushing out proudly between the buns. This one was kinda all recessed back into the bun. Not the best pics, but oh well. The taste was just as good though as I've come to expect from this juicy morsel of a burger. The taste in the mouth is like nothing else ... no Double Double will top this! Here's a pro tip: to get the maximum beefy charbroiled taste, turn the burger upside down with the meat on the bottom when you bite in, this places the juicy flavored meat first on your tongue and you'll get better flavor that way, as opposed to eating regular with the meat on top of the veggies. Try it, it really makes a difference. read more

Love this Habit location; the food is always fresh and hot and the manager & employees are SO incredibly kind. My parents are frequent customers and they rave about the cleanliness and quality of the food! 10/10 read more

I hadn't.been to the Habit for over a year. The real hamburger was as good as i remembered, but seemed a lot smaller. Am i mistaken? The tempura batter fried green beans are my favorite, above and beyond fries in my book! Staff were efficient & friendly. Ate outside. read more

Good service. Manager is very present and available. Friendly staff. I order from here all the time and they always get my order right or fix it right away in the few instances where they've forgot something. I am definitely a loyal customer for this location! read more

I just want to say that I have been here many time to have a burger or a salad and it has always been fresh and good. BUT best of all the store manager FELECIA JAMES has always made me come back. She is amazingly pleasant and very nice. Always makes you feel welcome to come back and her service is good. Thank you so much for that Felecia. read more

Came here today and Felicia was awesome. Really appreciated her over-and-above kindness. Our first time to this particular Habit, just passing through. Food good as always. read more

14 minutes to get a single burger, wasn't busy, and I wasn't the only one. To top it off, the soda machine with the ice maker was broken so my selection was ice tea or water and no ice. read more

The Char Burger while small was good, they need to up the size. The strawberry milkshake was amazing and fries were good. It was pretty busy since I went at lunch but service was quick. read more

The place is NEVER open on time. It's 10:45. I guess the 10:30 open time is a suggestion. The food is standard, when you can actually get it. read more

As a UCSB grad, going to The Habit was part of the Santa Barbara/Goleta culture. Every time we get back to SB, The Habit was a required stop. Now that vibe (albeit more modern) is in my backyard. First, the burgers are awesome. Santa Barbara Char is my fav but they are all good. Second, what burger joint offers tempura green beans? The Habit! Good tasting and good for you! Fries are also very good. Third, where do you see a seasonal special for garlic roasted brussels sprouts? Didn't try them on this trip but will definitely return to check them out. I saw some prior reviews on the service. All I can say is that our service was 5 star. Very helpful and attentive staff taking our orders, and getting a pager to ping us when the meal is ready is like a higher-end restaurant. That sure beats someone yelling out an order number. The Habit brings that cool, SB vibe to multiple locations. Pictures of East Beach on the wall - whaaat? We love it! read more

Today, I took my son and his friends to Boomers to celebrate his birthday. We decided to go to Habit Burger for lunch. When the manager -Felicia found out we were celebrating my son's birthday she went over and beyond to ensure we had an excellent lunch. Felicia was as awesome!! read more

First of all, let me just tell the owner that the guy who was at the cashier and took our order on Tuesday, 7/16/19 around 6:15 pm was absolutely must-keep. I believe his name tag said "Max". He was very nice and delivered a GREAT customer service. He smiled to customers, and was very friendly to us. When he wasn't taking orders, he cleaned up tables, and at one point I even saw him opening and holding doors open for senior customers. An absolute gentleman. I hope the owner reads this review. Now, let's get to the food. The food was good, consistent with other Habit Burger establishments. For the first time I ordered the lettuce-wrapped double char burger instead of the regular burger bun. Hey, for those of you paying attention to your calories intake, you'd save about 175 calories by doing this. And boy, my carbs-aware burger was delicious!!! And I could consume it without guilt. We also ordered tempura green beans which was delicious. Crunchy on the outside and still juice on the inside. Don't forget to ask for their ranch sauce, which to me is one of the best ranch sauces I've had. read more

Heads up, #4 BBQ bacon charburger comes with BBQ sauce although description does NOT state this. You might think "well, duh, of course it does", yet the Teriyaki burger clearly states it comes with teriyaki sauce, so what would you conclude??? BBQ can also refer to cooking method, as I assumed. Also asked for NO onions, got them! Ordered a Coke and got a Diet Coke . On the upside, the fries were awesome and I do like their burgers, just didn't expect BBQ sauce . Word to the wise, double check your order!!! Several reviews talk about good quality but missing sauces or order not done correctly.... (Order was done through DoorDash) read more
