Is it necessary to change $0.60 for what amounts to $0.02 of sauce? Corporate really ruined Habit. Used to be a good deal, now it's over $20 for a combo meal and y'all have the gall to charge an additional $0.60 for a measly dipping sauce? Treat your customers with some respect and they'll come back with friends. Nickel and dime them, good luck staying in business.

Been eating here my whole life and there's been a massive drop in quality...

First time here, it was delicious! They have burgers, chicken, paty melts, salads and shakes. I added fresh avocado and bacon to my burger that they lettuce wrapped. It was fresh and hot. Also the fries and onion rings were amazing.

Actually, I was again pleased! It has been awhile since I first ate at the Original Habit. My grandson graduated from UCSB in 2017 and it was our favorite dining place after his baseball game! My husband couldn’t stop raving about how delicious his cheese burger tasted! We will revisit the Habit!
