The Habit

It's been a while since I posted due to my move and new job.  But, things are starting to settle down so hopefully I'm back to updating the blog.  I flew back down to Sacramento last weekend and went with the family to The Habit.  I love the Habit.  I reviewed their new concept Hook Burger a few months ago when I was down in LA.  I've eaten at the Habit numerous times in Fresno but this was my first visit to the Sacramento location.  It is a very casual burger joint.  If you aren't a burger fan (which would shock me) then you have plenty of other options on the menu- Tri-tip, chicken, Tuna, veggie burger, etc.  You have fries , sweet potato fries or onion rings to choose from.  Plus there are shakes which I always want to try but usually end up too full to give it a shot.  The burger is nicely char grilled and has a fresh delicious taste.  You have plenty of toppings to choose from and they don't cover the burger in any of that 1000's Island dressing.    The bun holds up nicely.  
My only complaint is that the sweet potato fries aren't anything special.  Well, that and it would be nice if they had an ice cold beer to serve along with the burger :)   
I've been eating a lot of burgers lately but nothing that I've felt worth blogging about.  I had a 5 Guys burger the other day which was fabulous.  I love their burgers.  But, I've reviewed them recently and will continue to compare burgers to them.  I also have to admit I had a Wendy's burger last week and it was pretty darn good.  The bun was super sweet and soft.  I had stayed away from them for a while because the one near my old house had terrible service.  This one near my new house was nice.  
I'll try to hit some new locations soon.  More photo's to follow.  http://www.habitburger.com/
Eat up!
