    So we went there the other day for lunch and I love the habit, and like many other establishments they have cut back on their employee account and would prefer that we the customer order on a board and do all that which I just don't like. The server that day was all by herself I believe her name was.Kaeuna. Just the short time we were there. This is how amazing she was. She probably handled six people in a line 6 people waiting to pick up food and a couple of Uber eats or whatever all by herself with a smile and when she called my name to pick up the food because they had run out of their little buzzers that tell you, your food is ready. She added an extra order of french fries just to say sorry it took a little time. It was above and beyond great service.

    Yummy salad
    Ashlee A.

    SUPERB in friendly customer service; quality and fresh ingredients; and affordable healthy salads which Jose prepares with attention to detail. As such, please enjoy the delicious salad which I have shared a picture of. This will be my new favorite healthy and quick dinner option. And P.S. the BEST part Abdul was so considerate to offer a water for my service dog as we dined outside.

    Chicken club sandwich
    Todd H.

    Love the Habit! We order the charburgers once/week or so. We started getting the green beans based on a recommendation, and we were NOT disappointed. No more fries for us! Tonight we ordered the chicken club in addition to the burgers. Sadly, there was no chicken on half the sandwich. Will stick to what we know and love next time.

    Santa Barbara Double Charburger with Sweet Potato Fries
    Bob L.

    I'm a big fan of fast food, not many places I'll go, but Habit is good, especially compared to most burger places. I like the Santa Barbara because of the sourdough bread instead of bun, and the addition of avocado. That's fairly unique. I also like their sweet potato fries, crunchy and lately salted on the outside and soft on the inside. I do wish the patties filled out the bread a little better

    My fav burger in town if you're in the area you must go here for a burger yum my family and I love to come here for any occasion.

    Nice setting inside, no line, food was tasty. Music too loud probably cause no is seating inside to drown the music. There are tables outside to sit too .

    Better off going here

The music was blasting and it was rather dark inside with an interesting crowd. There is a chill vibe here with a small bar area that caters to just a few locals who brought their dogs and even their babies. I could tell that everyone knew each other. When I ordered, Colin tried to upsell me on some chicken nuggets in addition to the burger and fries that I requested. He was a cool guy, but that was a first for me in a burger joint as a native San Diego. Then, I asked for the meal to be packaged to go, and we had some discussion about it, so I was surprised when it was delivered on a tray for here. I got the sense that business was slow here, and that he was trying to bring in some more business. Now for the food... The Classic Hut Burger was more like a smashburger (1/4"), which was a dissapointment. If I would have known that the burger patty would be so small, then I would have ordered the double burger. The fries were similar to shoestring fries, and they were a bit over salted for my taste. Overall, the food was good, but nothing special... This was a one-time visit, but I'm sure if I lived in Encinitas, then I would stop by for a beer and those chicken nuggets that they raved about. This place has so much potential, but it's going to take some serious dedication to making it a special visit for each and every one of their customers, not just the people who live around the corner.

And our server was fantastic. So why, you might ask, only 4 stars in my review. Two reasons: 1). Management has prohibited giving a splash of a beer for someone to sample. Bottom line is that I wanted to order a pint of beer, but I wanted a splash of a couple of beers to try to make my decision. They refused, saying that one must buy a 5oz taster if one wants to taste the beer. I find that policy offensive. In the end I bought a taster to taste the Chuuurch, and then bought an additional pint after. It just seems nickel and dimey, and would be asking to an ice cream place not allowing one to sample their ice creams before buying a cone. I hope management reconsiders this policy. 2. My wife got the Hot Mess Fries and was disappointed not only in the flavor, but also in the misleading advertising. On the menu it specifically said that there was bacon in the fries, but in fact what they put on the fries was either chunks of ham or "Canadian bacon" (which as we all know is a very different thing from "bacon"). If they were or of regular bacon, the kitchen should have told the server this so he could have asked her if she wanted ham as a substitute. And, of they always use ham instead of bacon, them the menu needs to be changed to reflect that.

We ended up grabbing seats at the bar, which was a great choice. We ordered the: *Fig Burger with Brussels Sprouts: the Brussels sprouts were phenomenal. They had what tasted like pecans, some kind of glaze, and cheese... seriously so good. The Fig Burger itself was just as impressive with such a unique combo and absolutely delicious. *Steak Sandwich with Onion Rings: this was also a standout. Perfectly cooked, super flavorful, and came with a great dipping sauce that really tied it all together. The onion rings were crispy and on point too. First off, I love that they offer a variety of sides (sweet potato fries, truffle fries, mac & cheese, Brussels sprouts, etc.), though most come with a small upcharge. We had a few drinks and even grabbed a bottle of wine from the bar to take back to our Airbnb, which was a nice bonus. The vibe was relaxed with TVs playing highlights from a basketball game, and the bartender/server was awesome. Parking was easy with free street parking, though that might've been because it was late and a holiday. Only heads up: definitely call ahead about kitchen and closing times, especially on holidays. Online said they close at midnight, but they were actually closing at 11 PM. We were told over the phone the kitchen closed at 9:45 PM, but when we arrived at 9:30 PM, it had just switched to last call. Thankfully, they were kind enough to still get our order in. Overall, phenomenal food, great service, and a solid spot worth checking out. Would definitely come back.
