    I had a frustrating experience at Habit Burger while picking up an Uber Eats order. I went inside to collect a small order, but the wait time was excessive--around 25 minutes. For a simple order, this delay is unacceptable, especially for delivery drivers who are on tight schedules. What made it worse was the staff's attitude. There was little communication or urgency, and it didn't feel like delivery drivers were being taken seriously. A better system for handling online and pickup orders would make a big difference. I hope management works on improving efficiency and customer service, especially for delivery partners.

    Outdoor eating! freezing inside.

    My grandude wanted a hamburger. I don't eat meat, so I ordered their veggie burger. I eat veggie burgers and black bean burgers everywhere I go that offers them. This by far ranks at the very bottom of the list. It was horrible. Tasteless patty. I asked for a sesame seed bun, it was dry & had about 6 sesame seeds on it. Prices of sesame seeds must have gone way up?!! He Asked if I wanted cheese. Yes please. add: $1.00. (Which he didn't tell me). I think they should automatically tell you price and say AMERICAN CHEESE, when asking btw. And... turns out, it wasn't CHEESE. It was fake plastic white American processed garbage cheese!!! Gross. I couldn't even scrape it off the bun as it melded into bun and patty. Tomato: tasteless. And cucumbers??? That was a first!! I'll just say: weird to that. I ate those separately. we had to sit outdoors because it was FREEZING inside. My grandude liked his burger tho. But, he's 7... so idk if he knows what a good burger tastes like? I will never be caught dead in this chain restaurant in my life. It Boasts fresh ingredients... but how is processed American cheese fresh?? if you don't eat meat... do yourself a favor and get a pizza next door at DELISH... it looked amazing as there were 4 guys also sitting outside acting one and it looked ... well....delish! **please do not give me your corporate nonsense reply from business manager... I'm not taking anymore time out of my life. Refunding my money from last night around 8 pm would be the only answer $16.57 !! ***

    Nowhere does it say "with this flyer" or "bring this flyer."  They didn't take it either.

    I visited this location of the Habit on 5/8/26 the last day of a "teacher appreciation" promotion: a free sandwich, burger, or salad with a $5 purchase. The woman who I assume was manager or shift lead that evening spoke to me very rudely. I had showed my teacher ID to the cashier -- a young man who asked her how he should ring me up. She was very condescending to both the cashier and to me & said I needed to bring the flyer. I was frustrated because I recalled reading the flyer and it only said to bring my teacher ID to receive the promotion. She dismissively told me that the flyers were passed out and something like "that way it's only one per person" as if I might try to do this twice. I decided to drive back to get the flyer off my desk at work and return. With gas prices over $6 a gallon now this was such a waste of my time and gas. I returned- flyer in hand- and ordered. The woman did not speak to me on this second visit. I told the cashier who rang me up both times "I'm back with the flyer--as you see it says absolutely nowhere on it anything other than show your teacher ID." It was awkward and I noticed the woman seemed very intentionally to avoid speaking to me -- because I tried to show her the flyer twice but she walked back in the kitchen area and looked away. Just want to say overall-- I felt disrespected and such a negative energy from this that it became my last visit to the Habit at this location. Maybe the energy got into the food too, because my fries were floppy and cold, my burger seemed soggy. This was the opposite of teacher appreciation. It was a teacher - "treat you in a condescending manner" bye bye... worst experience I've ever had at the Habit. I live nearby and in average go there 3 or 4 times per year. Now I'll choose In-N-Out every time.

    Baja Crispy Fish
    Juan C.

    I have to give this review based on the newest menu item, the Baja crispy fish sandwich which i paid about $11 for the said item. This is one of the worst fish sandwich, maybe even the worst sandwich I have ever ate. Small portion, bland taste, too much tasteless sauce, I couldn't believe habit of all places would offer something like this. The restaurant itself is fine, it's clean and the staff is friendly, but man you can't trust everything offered on their menu these days. I usually love habit and will continue to give them a chance but steer clear of new items.

    $8 gotta habit meal deal
    Steffany I.

    We've been visiting Habit more recently since enjoy the burgers and sandwiches. Burgers are decent sized, probably comparable to the size of In n Out burgers. I personally prefer their sandwiches and salads. Our kids also love the kids meal that come with the little burger gummy. Prices for combo meals are definitely higher than your standard fast food joint. However, the do have some budget type meals. This last visit I got the $8 gotta habit meal which came with half a chicken club, tempura green beans, and a drink. For $8 bucks it was really filling! We've been to this location a couple of times in the last months and while we do enjoy the food, there have been issues with our orders. Thankfully they were easy fixes but I do have to check if our order was right each time. Otherwise everything is clean and a good sitting available inside and outside. Staff keeps busy but remain friendly and helpful.

    Kitchen area beyond the counter
    Tom B.

    Overall this is best to say it's a 2.5 star review. I have never been to a Habit Burger and wanted to finally try it. Boy, was I disappointed. The entire experience seemed disorganized and complicated. You go to a kiosk to order, which is perfectly OK, right as you enter... but there isn't enough room for more than three to four people to stand there, so if more they're at the door waiting to get in. The kiosk is intuitive enough but when I went to put in my email address for a receipt there was no '.' on the screen for a .net or .com. I looked and looked holding up people behind and it was frustrating. Finally it just timed out on me. No receipt. The text message told me to go to the counter for a drink cup. Stood there for 10 minutes and no one came or acknowledged me. They were apparently way understaffed. Having your cell phone number they use it to text when your order is ready and by the last four digits to call it out as well. It took around twenty minutes to get the order and it wasn't all that crowded. They seemed to be very harried in getting things out. The prep and kitchen. Is right in view so not so easy to miss. I got a regular burger meal w/o cheese with fries and a drink, and yes it is char broiled, but didn't taste any better than any other burger anywhere. It was ordinary, at best. The fries were good, not too greasy and I had a store supplied iced tea that didn't do anything much for me either. Combined I had an upset stomach which never happens to me. In the end there was no reason for me to ever return. In-N-Out is closer to my home, far more efficient in service with much better food. Plus the price point here far exceeds In-N-Out so the value doesn't exist either. Sorry, this didn't cut it.

    Tempura Green Beans
    Belinda C.

    I haven't tried a char burger yet, so my review may be considered premature, but I do love the 250 calorie Tempura Green Beans and the 600-800 calorie milkshakes. Strawberry milkshake and the new holiday Peppermint Bark milkshake are thick and creamy (and both pink!) You get one complimentary sauce with your side. Additional sauces are $0.60 each as of 12/2024. Sauces are Spicy Red Pepper, Sweet Mustard, BBQ, Teriyaki, and Signature Ranch. You can either order from one of three huge tablets or from the counter. The manager David is friendly and animated, encouraging me to take pictures of the new menu and chatting with me about cooking and working happily for Habit Grill. His favorite menu item is the Double Char with either a plain or sourdough bun. Restaurant looks contemporary inside. Indoor dining has about 10 tables for 4 and 2 tables for 2. You could separate some of the tables for 4 into 2 tables for 2. Outdoor dining with 5 tables for 4 and 2 tables for 2. If you're from Santa Barbara, you might like taking a photo by the "Born in Santa Barbara" wall mural: Habit Burger was established 1969 in Santa Barbara, CA.

I've never seen food move through me with such speed and determination. Let's just say the bowl made a return appearance faster than I expected, and it wasn't pretty. To be fair, there are currently public health warnings about certain produce, including vegetables, berries, and cilantro, so I can't say with certainty what caused it. If any of those ingredients were involved, that could be the culprit. Either way, this restaurant should take a hard look at its ingredients, suppliers, and food safety practices to make sure everything they're serving is fresh and safe. The bowl tasted fine going down, but the aftermath was unbearable. I hope this was an isolated incident, but no customer should be spending the next hour making emergency trips to the bathroom after a meal. I sincerely hope the restaurant investigates and ensures their ingredients are safe, because this experience was one I'd rather never repeat.

It's done so well with a nice water feature and lots of greenery. It's also got a couple of panels with screens instead of windows and 2 that have wiring for the green vines to grow on that are technically open to the outside. Given the few spots of it being open to the outside, having an occasional intrusion from the outside overlap to the inside is no surprise. I appreciate they would close the patio down until it's taken care of so it doesn't make its way inside is the most important and clearly that was done. The food was fantastic. The appetizer buratta is the biggest family favorite and soooo good! It's a must order every time. We got a mixture of wraps, kids meals, sandwiches, and salads (there were 12 of us). Everyone was happy and STUFFED. Portion sizes are not small so while it is a little expensive for an entree with no side, your entree is big enough (with a good amount of meat) that I don't feel like it's too overpriced for what you get. It's healthy and fresh and I don't leave hungry, even with a salad.

There was plenty of seating inside, and the restaurant had a nice casual atmosphere. They were out of the spinach tortilla, but I was given four other tortilla options and chose the garlic herb. My order was ready really quickly, probably within about five minutes. The Chicken Caesar Wrap is made with lemon-peppered chicken, grape tomatoes, red onion, shaved Parmesan cheese, green leaf lettuce, and house-made Caesar dressing. The wrap was absolutely delicious and bursting with flavor. I usually love croutons in a Caesar salad and thought I might miss them since this wrap doesn't have any, but there was so much flavor going on that I honestly didn't miss them at all. The lemon-peppered chicken especially added a lot of flavor, and the garlic herb tortilla was a great choice. It was also very filling. I was completely satisfied after eating just half of the wrap and saved the other half for later. I also really appreciate that Garden of Eat'n publishes its nutrition information online. I was genuinely surprised to see that the entire Chicken Caesar Wrap is only 515 calories, which is pretty impressive for something this flavorful and filling. My only complaint is the price. At $16.75, the wrap is definitely on the expensive side, especially since it doesn't come with a drink or any sides. It was very good, but almost $18 for a wrap by itself feels a little steep. I think it would be a better value if it were a few dollars cheaper or included a small side. Overall, I really enjoyed it. The food was fresh, flavorful, filling, and came out quickly. I would definitely come back, but the price keeps it at 4/5 stars for me.
