North County to Get its First Family-Friendly, Affordable and Delicious Habit Burger Grill

Nov. 9, 2011 - PRLog -- North County residents craving flame-grilled burgers, fresh-tossed salads and classic malts and shakes will soon have a new restaurant to satisfy their hunger. The Habit Burger Grill (The Habit) announced that the company is expanding to Carmel Mountain Ranch located at 12002 Carmel Mountain Road. The restaurant is scheduled to open on Wednesday, November 23 at 10:30 a.m.  

Eager taste buds can get a sneak peak of The Habit’s tasty and affordable menu during pre-opening charity events; one hundred percent of the proceeds from each event will be donated to these organizations:

•   Duchenne San Diego on Sunday, November 20 from 12-2 p.m.; and
•   Rady Children’s Hospital on Monday, November 21 from 12-2 p.m.

“We’re thrilled with the feedback from San Diegans since opening in Mission Valley just a few weeks ago,” said Russ Bendel, President and CEO of Habit Burger Restaurants, LLC. “Our restaurants are created with families in mind and I think that is really going to resonate with guests at our new location in Carmel Mountain Ranch. And, we are proud to get involved with the local community through our fundraisers.  We invite all San Diegans to come out and support these worthwhile causes.”

The Habit also serves fresh, char-grilled sandwiches, specialty salads tossed to order, onion rings, sweet potato fries and a variety of hand-blended shakes and malts.

•   Doing Its Part: The Habit has pledged to do its part in the communities in which it serves through charitable giving and eco-friendly practices.  The Habit donates volunteer time, financial resources and food to local charities.  New restaurants incorporate environmentally-friendly building features including renewable materials and paint that is non-toxic and low VOC.  And, the Albacore Tuna served on its sandwiches and salads is “hook and line” caught.

About The Habit Burger Grill
Over 40 years ago, The Habit opened in Santa Barbara, California. Soon after, 16-year old Brent Reichard got his first job flipping burgers there and a few years later he and his brother Bruce made the life-changing decision to buy it. Through hard work and dedication The Habit has grown a lot since then, but remains focused on one simple philosophy – always deliver high quality food and great service at reasonable prices.
