The food at the Habit is always fresh and good. While I have experienced some service and consistency issues, the Habit ultimately did make good on my issues. Thank you Habit! read more

If you haven't tried their wrap meals please continue so. Not worth it. I ordered chicken caesar wrap. The tortilla was burnt filled with a little of dry chicken and bunch of croutons. Literally, they used less than a leaf of lettuce and about one stripe of chicken but about 15 pieces of croutons. because they serve that meal in the box, the sweet potato fries were saggy. Bad idea of packing like that. Will never order it again. read more

Do I recommend? Not sure? I used to frequent this location back when it first opened and then moved out of the area. I ordered a chicken Caesar salad and it was seriously lacking chicken and the quality of the chicken was not good. It had a weird texture, reminded me of the frozen grilled chicken breasts they sell in bags at the grocery store (yuck). And the Caesar dressing they serve is gross. I think they've changed it? The lettuce was fresh. The rest of our group were not too thrilled with their burgers either and commented that their food used to be so much better. I 100% agree! Not the same as the first several years when they first opened. I was a regular back then. read more

We placed an order for dinner around 5:10 pm through the website mobile ordering. We were told the order would around at 5:52pm. At 6pm we wondered where the food was, so my husband went to the door to find the food sitting there. We never received a text, a knock at the door or a ring of the doorbell. We have a big dog and she barks like crazy when people ring the doorbell or knock on the door. The food was cold and my son's shake was melted! We checked our cameras and the driver dropped the food at 5:31pm so our food sat out for 30 minutes. We tried calling the number listed on Yelp and it goes to a call center. They don't have a phone at the store! Maria hung up on my husband when he called without even talking to him. He called back and the same thing happened. I called and Sarah answered. She said I would have to drive to the store to get a refund. The whole reason we ordered online is because we didn't WANT to drive to the store! Habit, your food quality has diminished over the years, but this was the last straw. We will never order from this store again. The food was inedible and went in the trash. read more

This location is good as long as you don't come in on a SUNDAY! don't COME HERE ON A SUNDAY! the cooks this day are lost. The burger tasted terrible and the fries looked sad, one was overcooked, the other fry was undercooked! Hard to mess up a burger and fries when that's the main thing you sell. read more

we stopped by for a late dinner. this is a great Cheeseburger location, not busy and clean. Our order was out fast and they were very flavorful. The staff was friendly the store was not too loud. great for groups. We were a party of 5. note: the charburger with cheese and sweet potato fries is a must try read more

I saw this pop-up in Tampa Bay before I left so I decided to try one out here in California. I ordered online before lunch so I could pick it up and have time to eat. I just tried the tempura green beans and they are amazing. The signature ranch is really good but the double char burger with cheese add bacon and mustard is amazing. They have kiosk as soon as you walk in the door. If you don't wanna order from the counter in case you're scared of talking to people ambience is what you would expect. It's modern a lot of color and by the time I drove to the store, my order was ready. Two patties is enough to fill anybody up on that burger. I will be back since it's so close to my job. read more

I made my first order online and went to pick it up during lunchtime today. They couldn't find my order and were so kind as to take my order again and prioritize it, so it was ready immediately. When I returned from picking it up I realized I had lost internet connection during the checkout process, so this was completely my fault. They were so kind and helpful during their rush hour. Great customer service. read more

20 years ago I stopped going to the habit because the food was terrible Tonight my wife suggested we give it a try saying that maybe it was a one-off when I tried it last 20 years ago Sad to say it was the same The hamburger meat was tough The french fries were cold and chewy This is the last time I will be purchasing my dinner at The habit I will stick with In-N-Out Burger! read more

Always a great experience! The food is fresh and consistent, and the service is just as good. Adriana, the manager, always greets me with a smile and goes out of her way to make sure everything is right with my order. It's rare to see that level of attention these days. This location is run so well, I recommend it to anyone who wants a great meal with friendly service. read more

I ordered a curbside pickup for a Baja Crispy Fish Sandwich and was disappointed to find it didn't include the cole slaw....I mean that's what makes the sandwich. At first, I considered letting it go, but I've been coming here for years and if I'm paying $12 for a sandwich, I expect it to be made correctly...wouldn't you? I drove back and asked for a replacement. The person who appeared to be in charge simply said, "mistakes happen," with no apology or acknowledgment of the inconvenience. They had one job. The lack of accountability and professionalism was more disappointing than the missing ingredient itself. I hope they take customer service more seriously in the future. read more

The counter mgr? - (young girl), could not have been more inappropriate and rude. It was during the afternoon, and the restaurant was busy, however her attitude was unacceptable. There was quite the wait, which is typical for this location- granted, customers were annoyed- but a simple apology and a smile would go a long way. The "take it or leave it" vibe is never good for business. Two customers walked out- I would have also if my order had not been already placed and paid for. A bit of training on professional curtesy is called for here. read more

Came here Friday and placed an order and when I went to pay I realized I had locked my ATM card, and told the girl I was sorry And needed a minute to fix that. She said don't worry, it's taken care of. She said she got a free meal and would give it to me! What? It was the sweetest gesture for her to do that and it made my whole day! My food was amazing as always and of course due to the situation the whole experience was away! Thank you and I'll be back! read more

Used to come to this habit at least twice a week regularly for years. i would spend about $40-)50 for two meals. and they can't even give complimentary ranch. Everyone i've spoken with is tired of this robbery. i came in today and on top of that i was treated rude and i will not be eating any more at this restaurant or any habit. who can afford it anymore anyways. the charge for ranch is just a slap in the face at this point to get every last penny they can get out of you. i'm now expecting a totally soulless response that addresses none the problems. read more

Habit Burger & Grill - #11 Ahi Tuna Filet Sandwich Meal, Tempura Green Beans - Burgers Near Me - Simi Valley, California

This location has gone far downhill. I suppose the plan is have as few employees on staff as possible as see what happens. Poor phone ordering system and in the store you're encouraged to use an automated system. Food is not nearly as good as it was years ago; I miss The Habit of the past. read more

I'm a bit torn about writing this review as I don't like to complain about places (unless they deserve it), but I still have to. I love The Habit, in fact I love my local Habit in Ventura and the location in Santa Barbara (close to the SB Zoo). This location is relatively close to my workplace, but it is the first time I tried it. The location itself was clean and the service was quick, albeit a bit cold. I got the Original Char burger, fries, and a soda and everything tasted good, but I got a stomach ache afterwards. It wasn't so bad, but I was disappointed to even get a stomach ache. My coworker also went and his food was good, so it might have just been an unlucky situation for me, but it was my experience, so I still wanted to share it. read more

DO THEY SERVE DOG?" First, a young male cashier wearing glasses went to get himself a drink. He stepped on trash in the lobby. I pointed it out, he said he saw it. Still ignored it and walked away. I picked it up and put it in the bin. My Santa Barbara was CUT IN HALF. I've said before DO NOT DO THAT, it just makes a non-manageable mess. No other sandwich on our order was cut. One side had most of the burger, other side had almost none. Sandwich bits fell all over. NEVER CUT ANY item without ASKING the customer. It's RUDE. An inconsiderate customer walked in with a heavily shedding GOLDEN RETRIEVER. Yes, a dog. No "seeing eye" not any other placard was worn. I told an employee and a manager, they refused to ask the customer to wait outside. Did they mop the floor when the slob left? Did they even sweep? (Sweeping would have thrown all the dog hair in the air.) Not a location I'd go back to. SHAME. Interesting response on their website... read more

Updating my 8 year old review. Still a great place for burgers and fries. I also recommend trying the onion rings, sweet potato fries, and the tempura green beans, or trying one of their sandwiches. I recently tried the fried chicken bites and they were fantastic. Crispy outside, seasoned perfectly, and a nice piece of chicken breast inside. I didn't even need the barbecue sauce that came on the side. The salads are great choice for something a little lighter. And you can never go wrong with a shake or malt. So yummy. I used the app to order and it was so easy. My order was ready within minutes of walking through the door. I also want to add that during the pandemic, they made a small little drive-thru and pick up spots since they only have an eat-in establishment. They made it work and were able to keep serving great food. The employees are friendly and helpful. Parking is plenty. They keep the restaurant clean. read more

Never again. Esp. Not for $13. It did taste decent with the dressing, but the bag salads for $4 at grocery stores are way better. read more

Habit Burger & Grill - #balance tri tip salad and fries - Burgers Near Me - Simi Valley, California

Sadly, no!! I used to love the Habit and would eat there at least once a week. I have been to the Ventura and Moorpark location this week and both were a disappointment. So sad!!! The salads tasted per-made. The lettuce was wilted and the tomatoes mushy. Also found a little critter in one of the salads. I know it happens, just sad!! Must have new management?? Fries were good. read more

Service was prompt and food was ordered via Yelp app. It was made faster than the Yelp estimate which was good for our hungry crew. Parking is super easy. read more

The double charburger without cheese is my new go to order. So fresh and delicious it is reminiscent of burgers I ate when I was a kid. You don't need mayo or mustard to drown this wonderful flavor just a little ketchup is my choice. Kudos to the habit staff as they work very hard and always get it right. read more

Nice welcoming the place is okay the food was okay and the price I guess made me feel like I was at a high end restaurant but wow after I ask for some extra bbq and wow now they charge for bbq sauce but my bbq chard burger had like a tiny bbq in my sandwich other then already paying 78 bucks read more

Food was good but the place was dirty and the bathroom sink would not work and had lots of trash everywhere

I'm done. I really like the habit but this is the last straw. I ordered carry out for a quick lunch. The order was completed really quickly and I appreciate the order tracker. When I arrived I immediately received my order but when I got home. The fries were undercooked and as hard as cardboard. My burgers were missing tomatoes and the lettuce was wilted. I also was not given any salad dressing options. Every time we've ordered takeout from this The Habit, it's been bad. It's always one thing or another. I'm done with this place. read more

Love everything from the salads to the burgers! Service is pretty fast and all made fresh while you wait can't beat that.

I have no problem paying today's high price for fast food (AND tipping them). But I do realize I pay a lot. When I order fries, I expect them to be sizzling hot. I will not take warm fries. On my last visit, I got warm fries with cold ones mixed in. So, I had to be THAT guy and asked for a fresh batch. Can't they just serve hot fries to everyone? Am I asking too much? Am I too picky? Am I a bad person? Please let me know if I am being unreasonable - then I will learn and change my way. read more

Habit Burger & Grill - Double Char with Cheese - Burgers Near Me - Simi Valley, California

I still remember when The Habit was a much smaller Gold Coast (Santa Barbara and Ventura Counties) mini-chain. Now they've spread their wings far and wide. We've stopped at one in Barstow on the way back from Vegas, and another in Porter Ranch's new Vineyards center, among other places. Here in Simi Valley, I prefer the one on the eastern side of town, due to its lovely outdoor area adjacent to the restaurant. From that standpoint, the west end location is more basic if you want to sit outside. This store is around the corner from a very large Target. There are other casual dining options in the plaza, and lots of free parking. Habit's burgers are solid, though I prefer cheeseburgers to plain, and dairy cheese is off the menu for me at this time. The option to enjoy their ahi tuna filet on a bun or in a salad is a great alternative for me. They have other choices, like veggie burger, which I haven't tried yet. I also miss their milk shakes, because they make very good ones! They offer French fries or onion rings, plus tempura green beans as something different for fried vegetables. Seems like they are innovating new featured burgers seasonally. Right now it's a French Onion Char(burger). Yes, they do char grill the burgers, which adds a smoky savory flavor that blows away many other burger joints. Their staff members are almost unfailingly polite, even cheerful. That's refreshing! read more

When did The Habit get so greasy? My husband and I both had horrible stomach aches from the level of grease. Used to be our favorite FF hamburger joint, but now, no more. Bye old friend. read more

I've been a longtime fan of The Habit Burger Grill, appreciating their consistently good food and the relaxed Southern California vibe. For years, they maintained a balance of quality and affordability, even after being acquired by a larger corporation. Lately, though, the experience has started to shift. While price increases are expected everywhere, The Habit seems to have taken it a step further. A double char is now over $15, and even small things--like a side of BBQ sauce--come with an upcharge. At that price point, I might as well go to Wood Ranch for a burger. I hope they recognize the value in what made The Habit special before they dilute the brand further. read more
