The Habit is one of the many eateries here at the University of California Riverside campus. They have ample tables for you to dine in. They also have tables on the outside if you wish to eat outside. The food is amazing. I ordered the Ahi fillet teriyaki burger along with a side of fried green beans and tropical tea. A little bit pricey it was about almost $22 with the tax but considering today's economic situation, I still think it's a reasonable priced meal. read more

Ordered a side salad literally called SIDE GARDEN RANCH and was told by the girl at the counter it doesn't come with ranch....lettuce was wilted and brown, everything thrown together, cap didn't fit tightly over the container, ended up tossing most of the salad. Chicken bites were fine but very disappointing experience. read more

I normally enjoy Habit Burger, but my visit today was very disappointing. Service was slow. The burger cheese was not melted and the burger tasted undercooked and off. The fries were cold, and I unfortunately found a hair on the food. Because of this, I could not finish my meal. I hope the store can improve food quality and cleanliness. I would appreciate the opportunity to return and try a burger made correctly. read more

Habit Burger & Grill - 2 char Meal char and cheese burger combo - Burgers Near Me - Riverside, California

Decent Habit location on UCR Campus and one of the better options there. I am a big fan of the Habit and while this location delivers I find that the burgers aren't as good as most other locations after having it a few times. The burgers tend to be a bit soggy and not as fresh. I do understand that this is a very busy location as it's packed with students and staff usually. Overall it's solid but not great. Recommend ordering on the app as you can expect to wait a good amount if you just walk in an order! read more

First time trying this place. The boy was surprised and pleased! I have to say that it was the best freshest salad I have gotten from any fast food place ever and I'm 63! read more

My experience at habit burger Grill was amazing. My dad went there to go get me a burger and the customer service was very amazing as far as ordering our food thank you to everyone. read more

Food be skimping fr we broke college students who don't eat as is and for the breakfast, the most important meal of the day is a literal KIDS MEAL. I paid 10 dollars for a "burrito" and got 12 tots. Cool... read more

Habit Burger & Grill - Southwest Burrito - Burgers Near Me - Riverside, California

The food here is so gooood I go here alllllll the time with my family and it's always such good service that we receive!

Amazing customer support! I recently visited the location as a student at UCR. I was in a rush and picked up my order without even checking to see if the food was right since I needed to go to class. After finishing my class I pulled the sandwich I had purchased and realized the patty was pink and undercooked. Afraid of getting salmonella since the sandwich had been sitting my bag for more than an hour I decided to just not eat it. I decided to put a complaint later that day and was quickly sent an email responding to my experience. They were super nice and helpful and offered me a big discount on some future orders. Every time I come here, they always give phenomenal service and are very accurate when it comes to when your order is ready. Spot is very pretty and clean for students to study and play games with friends. read more

Awful customer service .... enough said What? I need 85 characters to complete my review?? Okay... here we go.. Do not recommend do not recommend do not recommend do not recommend !!!! read more

I mean, it's habit, it's one of the few actual restaurants we have on campus. Picking between a nice meal at habit and panda I can confidently tell yah habits better then most other spots we got on campus. It's nothing too special but it's more then enough. read more

I came here with my roommate and waited for 30 minutes since it was during rush hour. The Santa Barbara char that I ordered was cold and it lacked flavor. The beef patty was a bit undercooked and I was disappointed since it's usually pretty good. Although my burger did not meet my expectations, I enjoyed the onion rings! They were hot and crispy. My roommate also really liked her chicken burger and fries! read more

Habit Burger & Grill - Santa Barbara char, chicken burger, onion rings, fries - Burgers Near Me - Riverside, California

Yummy, non-overpriced burgers now at UCR! Generally speaking, this Habit is above all the other ones I've been to and the food & service are high quality in my opinion. Food: I don't know why I've slept on the Habit for so long but I'm glad I didn't bring food the other day, otherwise I wouldn't have tried my hand at these burgers. I got the double char with sweet potato fries and a drink. I feel it's kind of ridiculous that sweet potato fries are a little more expensive than regular fries because that just makes it harder for people to make healthier options. The burger was incredibly juicy and the buns were grilled so that was unexpected! Service: Cashiers are always friendly and there's always a server that goes around and greets you and collects your trash/empty trays. I haven't had that service anywhere else at UCR so I thought that was neat. Personally, I think this is one of the best options for food at UCR and it isn't as expensive as the other food options are within the Highlander Union Building and elsewhere. And a side note, it's better to know what's going into my body so I'm glad that UCR finally has another place where I can see nutritional values! read more

Hello, I would like to let the owners know, they should change the manager or the cook, my order was late, my orders for French fries, onion rings and sweet potatoes fries were overcooked, the teriyaki burger was very poorly cooked, my chardburger without cheese, but if they charged it. Owners have better quality of their products. ( location of tyler and freeway 91 restaurant) read more

This location is normally pretty good. The only complaint is the ranch. Every time I go it is always half frozen. I used to work at a different location and we always made the ranch fresh and left in the walk in. Not sure what this location is doing by freezing the ranch but it's so gross. Management needs to fix this asap! read more

The restaurant is filled with students since it's in the middle of UCR campus, but it's a great environment. Fast service waited about 5minutes for our order & the food was great as usual. read more

I pretty much come here every day during the quarter when I have afternoon class on campus. Charburger tastes great and is affordable compared to the surrounding burger joints in the area. I'm not a big fan of larger cut fries but they are crispy and not mushy so its still acceptable. Overall a decent place to get burgers and very convenient. read more

Ahi tuna sandwich is absolute fucking ass. They keep advertising it as "sushi grade tuna". It tastes like canned tuna. Also they manage to over cook the living shit out of it. It's dry and smells absolutely awful and the fishy smell is still there. Smelled realllllly bad. Everything else is delicious. Love the char burgers and the employees. Except for the fuck who cooked my ahi tuna sandwich. fuck that guy. 4 stars because I enjoyed everything else. Some of the employees deserve a raise for their hard work and consideration except for the ahi tuna cook guy. But srsly how do you manage to mess up ahi tuna sandwich? Just slap it on for a crust and take it off. I am thoroughly disappointed and my day is ruined. Also there is an absurd amount of salt on the French fries. Honestly, with that much salt on my fries alone, I would be rich if I was a salt trader in the dark ages. So much salt I almost wanted to get my blood pressure checked out. Nice fry on the fries though. read more

I really like Habit burgers! When I'm craving a burger In campus I'll order the Charburger and it definitely satisfies. For $4 it's also one of the cheapest lunch options on campus. The fries are pretty good too but I find the burger to be filling on its own so I usually skip them. Hot tip: download the app and skip the ridiculous line. Your meal will be ready and waiting in 10min. read more

Been here twice and both times I had a couple for a free burger. First time, I tried the onion rights and they were OK...second time, I tried the green beans and I was in love. I felt weird about getting green beans with a burger, but they are fried as were, so I guess it wouldn't matter. Those green beans were so freaking good and I had a size of ranch dressing to accompany them. I would go here, just to get the green beans.a read more

First off I didn't know this was inside of a college, probably should have checked around on the map. Anyways 25 minutes later after finding the place they just butchered my order. They gave me all the wrong fking toppings. Not happy at all read more

This is a new location on campus so come over! Their #1 original char burger is really good and the combo comes with fries and a medium drink. read more

Every time I grab a bite at the Habit, I never have issues with the food I get and the burgers are always consistent. One time they messed up on my order and they were very courteous about making me a new one and even offered a milkshake for the mistake. This location is just as good as the other Habit Locations that I've been to. read more

No gloves???? I'm sitting here literally lookiNg at them serve fries and squishing them onto the container with NO GLOVES! LAST TIME I EAT HERE!!! It is common sense oh my goodness, I am so disgusted I see not one person with gloves read more

I waited a few months to post my review as to not impulsively post an angry review. As a former UCR student I've been to The Habit a few times; honestly nothing too impressive, but it's a good place to get your milkshake/burger/fry fix. I'll give them credit for the fries: a good sized portion and delicious unhealthy snack to munch on in between your classes. The last time I went, however, I ordered a milkshake just before the lunch rush started. I didn't get the electronic buzzer that lets you know when your food is ready, but I figured I didn't need one since I only ordered a milkshake and was waiting at the front. Oooooh boy was I wrong. After I ordered, people started to form a line for the lunch rush. After each person picked up their food I figured that they just ordered before me, but then I had noticed people who ordered after me picking up their food. waitwut I asked about my milkshake and was told it would be coming shortly. Gave them the benefit of the doubt but ended up waiting a total of half an hour. The same employee who talked to me then asked if I was waiting for an order. (Nooo... I just like to watch you over-salt your patties after I'm done with class.. like w a t?) I guess somehow my order didn't get through the ticket system or something, because at this point they asked if I ordered online. I thought the cashier would be more helpful since she took my order, but she seemed just as clueless. Finally the employee just took my word and made a milkshake, but didn't even acknowledge that I had been waiting 5ever. She just put the milkshake on the pickup counter and walked back without making eye contact. Okay sis. This is the reason why I decided to graduate early. But in all seriousness, this was my last time visiting The Habit at UCR after feeling disreg-R'-ded. Had I stayed another year I would have opted for the more friendly homies at Panda Express and Hibachi-San. read more

I loveeeeeee the habit Caesar salad! I get it all the time. It is such a great price and amount. The quality is great. The Habit service is always sincere and welcoming! I get their Caesar at least once a week. I should honestly be paid for how many ppl I've referred to get the habit salad haha. The only thing would be that the Habit should stay consistent with how they make their salad because sometimes, it is too much dressing and some days, it has barely any! read more

They always have great customer service and the food always comes out fantastic, the staff is so fast and friendly !

There's always solid food here. The line gets pretty long around lunch time, but it always goes by relatively quickly. I'm a big fan of the char burger- it's one of the cheaper food options here on campus. Prices are very reasonable and they have good breakfast selection as well. read more

Great service I had an excellent experience here David helped me out a lot with an issue and he was extremely nice and polite. Would recommend to anyone, best service on campus. read more

Staff was nice and food was yummy. Typical Habit W. Habit onion rings stay undefeated

The food is alright and it's convenient if you don't want to leave campus to go get food instead. The only complaint is that the fries have way too much salt on them. The service is fast and quick and even when there's a long line, it's still worth waiting as the line goes by pretty fast. read more

Love the burgersss.... I think it makes UCR just a better place in general lolll! This place is prob a guilty pleasure of mine when it comes to eating here at UCR! read more

The food was good and the people were friendly. I would eat there again! Their strawberry limeade is yum!

Ehh it's ok, it's on the pricey side. Food is ok sometimes the burgers taste dry. The service is on point though, they definitely make sure that you won't be waiting forever to get your food, but for some weird reason I notice that my food gets cold by the time I get to my table. read more

The Habit Burger Grill at UCR is undefeated! No restaurant at UCR can match the quality of food and price. Shoutout their manager Juan for providing excellent service and being so considerate. That man deserves a raise!!! Also, there seems to be an excessive use of plastic at this location. Management should care for the environment and think about protecting our oceans! The Habit is the best thing that has happened to UCR since Scotty bear. Also, where has manager Juan gone? He was definitely a superstar for your team and always cared about the speed and quality of service. Also really wish you guys had fresh lemonade like all your other stores. I've been to both the Habit in Moval and certainly it cannot compare to the habit at UCR. UCR Habit is greater than Moval Habit read more

UPDATE: so i went in today and ordered some fries AGAIN i watched the cooks re heat up the fries that were already cooked. So i asked the manger there if this is something they teach their employees can you believe the manager said that this is something that they are taught . They are allowed to place them back in the oil AFTER they've sat out to heat them up again that is freakin GROSS! How about just make enough fries for the order at hand why do that? The fries taste horrible after they've been double cooked . There literally oily And hard as a rock ! So unfair to the customers .. So , yes management reached out to me and sent me something in the mail for my complaint and i wanted to give this play another try how about i come in today order some fries and a chicken breast and i watch the cook re dip the already cooked fries in the hot oil and give them to me !!! And how about the chicken Breast was already done for god knows how long (very rubbery) and i seen a lady who i believe to be the manager (blonde hair) heat my chicken breast up ! I just feel like If i ask for the food fresh what so hard about just giving me that ? read more

UCR finally has its own Habit Burger Grill! This place is pretty typical to what I've come to expect of the Habit, which is nothing short of great to say the least. They have a full menu including burgers, sandwhiches, sides, shakes, and malts. They have a person who goes down the line with buzzers and takes orders. The veggie burger(which I had) was really delicious. The seating area is 1/2 latitude 1/2 Habit and is definitely great. I dropped a star because they (as of 11/15/2017) don't have dining dollar/bear buck options which means that a huge population of first years are unlikely to eat there. read more

I have been a customer here since they opened on campus. 2 out of 3 times they seem to get my order wrong or mess up the cooking of a specific item/request. Due to the fact that it is convenient to get to (here on campus), do I keep going back hoping it will be better. Today's experience should of been simple, Char with cheese and no onions, lettuce or tomato. That got messed up, again; and this time it was two in a row. Damn... read more

The staff is amazing! The burgers are great! I would definitely come again.

Love the food. Great service. I don't know what else to write but I guess I'll keep writing. I didn't take a picture of the food since I was hungry and ate it fast, but you can trust me when I say it was good. read more
