Since its inception in 1969, The Habit Burger Grill has established a respected reputation praised for its Charburger and its laid-back, welcoming California essence. In addition to the signature Charburger, The Habit’s product innovation sets it apart in the fast-casual space with fresh salads, handcrafted sandwiches and a unique take on classic sides such as tempura green beans, sweet potato and French fries, and onion rings. The offerings also incorporate entrees featuring line-caught, sushi grade ahi tuna, and fresh chicken.
Along with the emphasis on handcrafted menu items, The Habit difference is based on the uniqueness of its chargrilling over an open flame and cooking from scratch.
