The Habit Burger Grill

My favorite is the teriyaki burger the fried green beans are good too! Great customer service but it is definitely not the best burger in town but it is worth checking out the milkshakes are just OK. The place is very clean and new I like the bar where you can get peppers pickles etc. glad to have it in town. Good but not groundbreaking.

Love this burger spot. It’s night and day compared to bk or McDonald’s. They have fresh quality burgers for a reasonable price. Service is great. I got the original with onion rings and was very satisfied. Clean place but a little far to get to but we’ll worth it.

It’s a good burger, bun is fresh, good veggies on it, the cheese is good, patty a little dry. I had the double char with fried green bean. I would come back.

I finally decided to check out what all they hype was all about. I came by around 6pm for dinner and the line was loooong and the place was packed. You could barely get a table. I was excited to try their items out.
The line moved quickly. I was impressed. The prices for their burgers were decent. You’re given a square device with a digital number on it and you’re told when it buzzes, your food will be ready to be picked up on the counter.
The inside was clean and the décor was nicely done for a fast-​food burger joint. It felt spacious and airy even with all the people. Maybe it was due to the lighter color scheme, brightness, and big windows.
Now to the Food… First of all, isn’t the star of a burger supposed to be the burger patty? I found their burger patty to be meh. :/​It was thin, dry (overdone) and quite lackluster — quite flavorless for a beef patty. I had the teriyaki charburger, which has a grilled pineapple, pickle, tomato, lettuce, and caramelized onions. The grilled pineapple was greenish gray??? Isn’t it supposed to be yellow with grill marks on it? I figured it may have accumulated all the grease from the grill? I couldn’t get over the color. After all, I eat with my eyes first. We also had ordered the Santa Barbara Charburger, which is a double char (two beef patties) with cheese and avocado on a a grilled sourdough and we requested for bacon. The sourdough bread was elongated so the char or beef patties basically overlapped in the center and it looked like a huge burger once it’s sliced in the middle. The flavor was also lacking — so disappointing! The bacon was thin and small. We also ordered onion rings and tempura green beans. Both were bathed in too much salt. If I had know this prior, I would have requested for no salt. The onion rings were ok. It may have been the overabundance of salt that may have deterred me. The tempura green beans were decent. However. again, I can do without the added salt.
We also ordered their coffee malt and a strawberry shake. It was actually quite good! Both weren’t too overly sweet. The coffee malt had a perfect hint of coffee.
WARNING!!! Their ranch dressing has MSG! YUCK! I found out the hard way and had an allergic reaction.
Overall, I was disappointed with their charburgers. I’m not sure I’ll be back unless I was with a group of friends and they decide this is the place were going to meet at, which is highly unlikely. I’d probably get the tempura green beans and try any of their other sandwiches. It’s definitely not a place I’d think of going when craving for a burger! It was such a dissapppinting visit. Boo! :/

Solid burger joint. I would compare it a 5 Guys, BUT the prices are much better for what you get. I like the Santa Barbara style burgers here. You get a sourdough upgrade and avocado and grilled onions. Add some bacon to that and you are in business.
Also, the onion rings are really good. Nice and crunchy and hot. Friendly staff, and they give you a buzzer for when your food is ready. I would choose this spot over most other burger joints in the area, at least until In and Out makes its way up here.

Ok… so a friend told me I should give these guys another chance to be my go to place when I am jones’n for a burger and I did… Well I am glad I listened!
My first visit was OK but this time I found my baby LoL… I ordered the SANTA BARBARA STYLE Double Char with Cheese & Avocado on Grilled Sourdough loaded with grilled onions and the works… Through in some nice crispy onion rings since the fries didn’t do it for me last time. My better half had the BBQ BACON CHAR BURGER Bacon, mayonnaise, pickle, fresh tomato, lettuce and caramelized onions on a toasted bun w/​fries and she enjoyed hers as well.
I am a fan: o)

Delicious (fast) food at great prices. Been waiting to try this place w my bf for couple months. Finally made it out here. Both of the Burgers were very good and service was great as well. Sweet potatoes fries were ok, regular ones seemed better. Interior seating is comfortable and open. We’ll definitely be back!

Golden, crunchy fries. Fresh burgers. Great selection of drinks if you don’t want their shakes. And talk about cleanliness, by far one of the cleanest burger joint I’ve seen in awhile!

Apparently this is the place to go for Seahawks fans to drown their sorrows after a playoff loss. When we arrived, the place was pretty empty. Not long after we ordered, a good 5+ families decked out in Seahawks gear came in and all of a sudden, the Habit turned into a happening little burger joint!
Anyway…it’s been awhile since I’ve been to a Habit. It might as well have been my first time. The burgers are pretty inexpensive. The most expensive is the Santa Barbara, which adds avocado and a sour dough bun. While the burgers are cheap, they get you with ads-​ons like cheese. I can’t remember the last time I had a burger without cheese so I splurged and spent the extra $ 0.60. I ordered a Double Char (two patties) combo and a Teriyaki Char with sweet potato fries for my wife. The burgers were delish. Fresh, juicy, and very tasty.
All of the burgers come with a lot of extra ingredients included, like mayo, pickles, and onions. You have the freedom to remove any of those items, just like you can add extras like cheese, bacon, guac, etc. As long as you’re mindful of how much extra stuff you’re adding to your burger (s), you can have a pretty inexpensive meal for two. Our total was about $ 16.XX.

Honestly, first impression was «Oh lots of people in line it’s gonna be good.»
The gal that took our order was nice but super hard to hear. We were given one of those order pucks and told it would buzz when our order was ready for pick up.
15 mins went by and I saw several people who had ordered after us sitting and eating already, one table was finished and leaving.
So I went up to inquire about it. The looked at my ticket went back and talked to the line and said, Oh it’s coming out right now, just a minute.
They gave me out tray, I gathered our matchup and napkins which btw are all right at the register where the thick of things are I almost had my try knocked away by a passing worker of theirs. Worst location ever for these things.
I get to the table kids are excited there is a gummy candy of a hamburger cute but are those wrappers exactly clean to be putting on top of my kids food? Yuck.
I bit into my long waited burger and Meh.
Nothing special. It was fine, but had way too mayonnaise on it but other wise just a what ever burger.
For the price I really expected much more.
Saturday was our first and last visit.
This is the review I left for then also on their Facebook page.
Update:
Because so many said I must of came on a bad day I decided weeks later, I’d gave it another shot. It was a lot slower when I went again. So I did get my food faster but… The burger was still in no way worth the price. Two strikes your out Habit burger. What a bummer! I really wanted to like this place.

The Santa Barbara double is my fave! Super juicy and exploding with flavor on sourdough bread. And the onion rings are ultra crispy. YUM!
The tuna burger is pretty good too, but it’s a lot like a chicken burger — not my fave, but I’d order again.
The original charburger was meh. I wouldn’t order it again. I also didn’t think there was anything special about the veggie fries; I definitely prefer the onion rings.
People keep asking me how Habit compares to Dick’s. Well, Habit is a lot less greasy… AND THEY HAVE SOURDOUGH!

Great fast burger at a great price.
The place is clean, service is quick, food is fresh.
Keep in mind, this is a fast food burger. Nothing spectacular, but probably one of the best fast food burgers around this area.

I had the Santa Barbara style burger with the sour dough bread and avocado. My husband had the double charr. We shared a side of fries, tempura green beans and a mocha milkshake. We both thought the burgers were very juicy. The sour dough bread was on the greasy side though. I saw that you can also order your burgers with lettuce instead of the bun. The green beans were very juicy and fresh tasting. Fries were good and classic, but nothing special. I enjoyed my milkshake.
This location is at a neighborhood strip mall. The line was as long as the counter to the door, but they were pretty quick with their taking orders and they provided a pager. The wait was pretty quick for the food as well.
I definitely would go back and I actually enjoy the burgers here more than in and out and 5 guys.

I finally got to try the Habit last Saturday.
It was a lot busier than I expected for around 3pm on Saturday. The line was long and the place was packed but we were able to find a seat right after ordering.
Our food didn’t take very long. The onion rings and fries are good. The burger was delicious! I don’t remember which one I got but it was just one of the plain ones. I really want to try the teriyaki burger next time.
The workers were really nice as well! Someone walked by and checked in on us when we were eating.
Great location in the little shopping center and ample parking!
Kinda pricey though.

Not sure what the big deal is… Drove all the way from Lynnwood to try the «best burger in the country» and it was not worth the drive. It’s a mix between 5 guys and Red Robin.
They do have a vegetarian option and it was very good (add the mushrooms for $ 1 more because that’s where all the flavor is). Butcher/​BBQ chef fiancé said they used unseasoned ground beef for the burger and it wasn’t very good. Prices were OK.
Staff of managers (?) was sitting behind us and gossiping/​mocking people while tables sat with dirty trays.

So my wife found an article online exclaiming that The Habit Burger Grill has the best burgers in all of the country. We like a good burger so a few days ago, we set out to give this place a try. Is it me or do most people in the world really not care about how their food tastes? These burgers didn’t even hold a candle to a Jack In The Box Jr. Bacon Cheeseburger!
Too well done and overcooked to start with. Blackened edges and dried out meat. Just plain out not good. The fries were horrible too. They tasted stale and dry too. The tempura green beans that one of the employees was raving about weren’t too bad but still not worth an entire trip over and the onion rings were just meh too. Nothing that we ordered popped. It was all either bad or just so so. Definitely not the best burger in America by a long shot. Who are the people voting on this stuff?
The atmosphere of the restaurant is cool but if it’s busy as it was, good luck finding a place to sit and eat. They kept up on turning the tables over very quickly though and kept everything nice and clean. Nice people and cool space but the food is just not worth going back for.
Thanks for reading.

The burgers here are very good. To me, it tastes very similar in both texture and flavor to what you might get at Red Mill, just in a smaller portion.
I’d agree with another reviewer who said the fries are too salty here. Some people like it salty, so I wont say this is a good or bad thing– to each their own. For me personally, going with no salt next time.

I’m hesitant to write this review — only because I absolutely love Habit and I’m not quite ready to share my secret discovery. I want it all to myself!
I’ve only tried one burger (the charburger w/​bacon) and I love it so much that I haven’t been willing to try anything else! The burger is juicy, tasty and has a delicious charbroiled flavor. The fries are mediocre, so I’d recommend to order the onion rings or sweet potato fries instead. The sweet potato fries are outta this world — truly the best I’ve ever had! Don’t miss out on the $ 1 ice cream cone either!
Habit is unlike any other fast food joint in the area. It’s clean, spacious and the employees are welcoming and friendly! They also offer a variety of sandwiches and salads, alongside their burger options.
TIP (S) — Their dipping sauces are free! Just ask an employee. They also have free online ordering & pick up!

This place is close to home, very reasonable prices, a good amount of food for what you pay for, fast, and tasty! I got the double char with added mushroom (+$ 1). It was very good. The meat is really soft and tender; I think I would have liked a little more chew though. The fries are yummy and cheap; I added salt and pepper and it was great! I wish it was crispier though. The place has limeades/​lemonades, iced teas, fountain drinks. I love a place that has housemade drinks; the tea was lacking though. I’m going to have to try mixing it next time. They have jalapeños, banana peppers, etc hanging out if you need a little kick. The burger was tasty; you can taste the char!
Fries, a decent sized burger, and a drink for $ 10… Ugh why does this place have to be so close to my gym!

I honestly would give this burger joint 10 stars if Unilocal lets me! No seriously, I would eat every single burger on their menu for my last meal on earth, haha!
I ordered the double w/​cheese, yes gimme the meat, baby! And they tasted so fresh, like fresh2death! The burger were put together nicely, I was able to go through my burger without the mess, considering I have a 9-​month old on my lap. Kind of bummed I asked them to add avocado but they forgot. Their fries were just ok, not much to brag about. The kids got a charburger with fresh apple slices and apple juice, it came with 1 jelly burger that you find at a gas station. What’s awesome is that one of the upper management came over, saw that I have 2 little girls, asked me if he can bring out another jelly burger for the other kid. Little things like that makes dining more pleasant!
Oh did I mentioned just when our buzzer went off, I went to grab our food, one of the manager offered to bring the food to my table?! That was super duper awesome! And when I went over to get condiments, the owner (I think) made a small talk to make sure I was doing ok and if there’s anything they can do to make it better. This is by far, the best customer service I’ve ever had, especially at a burger joint!
Even heading out, the guy that held the door open for us was nice, he had a nice, genuine smile =)
I will definitely come back again, hoping to try their salad line, cuz I’m sure eating burgers two days in a row isn’t going to do me any good!
