A Good Burger Experience
I finally had the chance to try The Habit Burger Grill after hearing about it from friends. We ordered through UberEats for dinner. The Kids Charburger was a hit; my son liked it so much that he now requests it whenever we get a cheeseburger. The Charburger with cheese was pretty good, and I really enjoyed the flame grilled aspect. The onion rings were excellent, though the fries were just okay. The spicy ranch sauce was interesting, but it didn't taste like ranch. While I wouldn't compare it to In N Out, I would definitely try it again.

Rude Service, Good Food
My experience on November 18th at 11: 30 PM was marred by the rude service from the blonde lady at the speaker. Her unwelcoming attitude made me want to drive off without ordering. Despite this, the food was good.

Disappointing Burger Experience
My experience at this restaurant was quite disappointing. The basic burger was just that – basic, with a basic bun and meat. It was nothing like the photos on their website in regards to size. I also paid extra for chunky guac, but it was not included in my order. The burger was put together sloppily, reminding me of a burger from Rally's. I would definitely rather go to IN N OUT. Honestly, I don't understand why they are in business. I've tried it out twice and missed both times.

Extremely Slow Service, Walked Out
My experience at this restaurant was defined by incredibly slow service. I was the most understaffed food spot I’ve ever been to. I waited at the register for 15 minutes, and no one even came to take my order. I literally didn’t even give them the chance to try their food before I just walked out due to the slowest service I’ve seen in my life.

Messy but Tasty Beach Burgers
I got some food through the drive-thru so we could eat on the beach, lol. I think these burgers are best eaten in a restaurant because they were super messy 🍔. My burger juice was leaking all over me even with the double wrapping paper. The salmon burger and chicken sandwich were slippery and falling apart. The taste was great though! Lol

Abdull: The MVP of Habit Burger Grill!
My family and I visited Habit Burger Grill in Pacific Beach, and it was a fantastic experience, largely thanks to the exceptional service from Abdull. From the moment we walked in, Abdull greeted us with a warm smile. He noticed our child in the stroller and proactively wiped down the baby seat, even delivering it to our table with enthusiasm. His kindness and respect were evident throughout our visit. The food was sizzling, juicy, and perfect, with the burgers and crispy onion rings being standouts. Abdull's chill, friendly vibe made the entire experience feel relaxed and enjoyable. He handled our order with precision, and his service was truly unforgettable. We'll definitely be back, partly for the delicious food and mostly to experience Abdull's outstanding service again!

Great Food, Coupon Issue
My experience at the restaurant was a mixed bag. I absolutely loved the chicken sandwiches and the burgers. However, I was disappointed that the coupons delivered by the postal office were not honored.

Wish for Milkshakes at The Habit
I wish that The Habit would mix milkshakes, specifically chocolate with cookies & cream. They stated that it's not allowed, which I find to be lame. My experience was focused on this particular drink offering.

Delicious Burgers and Great Service!
My experience at Habit was fantastic! The food was delicious and of great quality, with some of the best burgers I've ever had. The service was also excellent; the food didn't take very long to come out, and the staff were kind and answered all of our questions. I totally recommend it.

Late Night Pickup Delight
My experience was a late night pickup order on a Wednesday, and it truly didn’t disappoint. The food was really good and offered a fair price. I tried the Santa Barbara char.
