Burgers are great! But prepare for a 20 minute wait. I asked twice about my sweet potato fries. They gave me regular potato fries instead. Otherwise, burgers are great!

Love the self serve pickle bar and the drink station. The entire premises are consistently clean and well maintained.

Always love The Habit. Came to enjoy the beach here in monterey but quick bit to eat with the family after a good long drive. But kids never been here so have to put them on. Food was always good here. I think they have the nest onion rings here at this location than any other one I have been to. Enjoyed the spot and food kids also loved it.

It’s pretty good. My German friend liked the single charburger more than the In-N-Out cheeseburger, which I’d have to agree with. The meat tastes a bit better at The Habit. I really like their range of selections on the menu, as well as the fact that they offer two lemonades and two teas in addition to their soda fountain. The condiment selection is also pretty freakin thorough.
The manager here was a nice guy who chatted with us a bit and gave some advice on meal choices. The Santa Barbara char I ordered was pretty heavy and huge. I was slightly turned off by the buttery sourdough bread—it just made the thing feel a little greasier than necessary. It was really filling, I almost felt sick after putting the whole thing down (which I probably shouldn’t have done).
All-in-all, this “The Habit” location is pretty good. It’s clean and tidy, they get food out quickly, and they even have a drive-thru. Maybe only eat 1/2 the Santa Barbara char if you order it.

For a fast food burger place, Habit Burger is pretty good! I liked that they offered a condiment bar, which included jalapeño peppers, banana peppers and vinegar and other sauces. The onion rings were nice and crunchy and the fries were crispy and flavorful. I liked the variety of fountain drinks as well. I will definitely check them out again in my own city.

While the burgers are very tasty, for my money, the best item on the menu is the deep fried green beans. AWESOME! A close second is the fries. The garlic fries, that is. What makes them different is the garlic sauce. The flavor is distributed over the fries, not just stuck on in a few places or in clumps. Again, AWESOME! The vegetables on the burger were crisp and fresh, the meat, well seasoned, the cheese, typical, the bun, adequate, but fresh end soft.
I would definitely come back, here, again, the next time I am in town. In fact, I look forward to it. Yumm.

Great food and a beautiful ocean view. Better than many burger restaurants I’ve been to! I think the only competition Habit has is probably 5 guys or farmer boys.

These are among the best burgers I’ve ever had. In three visits so far I’ve had the Portabella Char, the Santa Barbara Char and a double char w/ch. add bacon, regular fries, sweet potato fries, onion rings and the fried green beans. It was all really fresh good and delicious and I’ll be back to try more items on the menu. I guess what I’m saying and pardon the pun but it really can become a habit to go to Habit Burger.

The burgers are delicious here. Other local California staples will have their die hard fans but this place is absolutely worth checking out. The Hawaiian burgers are a lot of fun and still tasty. You can be a picky eater and still find what you would expect from a quick service burger restaurant. If you like being adventurous they have sides, shakes, and sandwiches with some uncommon flavors as well.

The visual was beautiful perfectly presented vegetables are there on your burger which was a Santa Barbara as a wrap but the flavor trust wasn’t there. Maybe it’s because they put a really small slice of tomato and I’m really big on tomatoes on my burger it pops the flavor of the meat. I also had the temperature green beans which were pretty good with the sriracha sauce.
