The habit is a glorified Burger King that is only successful in Utah because they eat a metric ton of hamburgers with little regard to quality/taste.

The habit is Five guys tier pricing but the burgers are worse than In N out and the fries are worse than Five Guys.
It's only an option if you have nothing above Wendy's to get a burger from. you know, like in Arizona and Utah.

Their burgers are overrated (still quite good), but their fries are God-tier... And you get a boatload of them.

You have Tropical Chicken, and tons of great Cuban restaurants. Cry me a river.

I really wish I had a good pizza chain around me. Best I had was a zPizza that shut down.
We have Habit here. Never been...I'm pretty sure it couldn't compete with Smash Burger
El Pollo loco sucks
Rubios sucks
We have a place like that Blaze Pizza. It's awesome. It's like Chipotle for pizza. The one here is called Fired Pie. I've been to similar places when I visit Cali.

El Pollo Loco closed down in my town a long time ago, so it's weird to see it on that list.
lol
surprised el pollo loco was an up and comer. i thought the place was going downhill. i hardly ever go because i always end up getting popeyes if i want chicken.
Habit and Smash are pretty comparable. I'd give the edge to Habit due to pricing.
It's pretty interesting hearing impressions in here considering a majority of these businesses are clients for the company I work for.
It sucks.

El Pollo Loco? I could have sworn they were all over my town about 20 years ago and then disappeared. Good to know they're still around. I used to love their chicken.
Yeah, they where everywhere and then poof, they all disappeared. Maybe poor management? I don't know.

Most things are better than El Pollo Loco. Kroger Rotisserie chicken beats El Pollo Loco.

And then you get grease burns trying to dig your burger out of the bag from under them.

You can eat at Lyfe Kitchen, or you can order something that you really need from Amazon. Then, instead of throwing away the box and the packaging, eat that while someone in your household walks past you several times and blatantly ignores you.
Tada! You have just eaten at Lyfe Kitchen.

Sorry, ate there once and it was not a good experience. It may have been an isolated thing.

Man, El Pollo Loco has been around forever. I didn't realize they only recently went public.
Looks like Best Coast representing as usual.

You guys have so many fast food restaurants that it continually wows me. Here in Canada, we don't have a ton - just the staples and one or two extras like Tim Horton's.
I've only been to El Pollo Loco maybe 10 times and I've never found it to be good. Dry chicken and nasty corn on the cob that has been floating in the same water for hours is what comes to mind.
The Habbit is my favorite fast food place. Great burgers, fries, soft serve shakes, and even a good cobb salad with a tuna steak.
I think there is a different mind set in California about what type of business people want to build. I lived on the East Coast most my life and people would open 1 place, work there, and try to be the best. In So Cal people want to create a chain/franchise business, not actually work, and not give a shit if it's the best or not.

I must be losing my mind. I could've sworn I've driven by an El Pollo Loco before. But there are none in my state. I should go back to sleep.
The last time I went to a Pollo Tropical they had somehow ran out of chicken. Out of chicken. A chicken restaurant. No chicken. And they accidentally spilled a tub of ice on a customer when refilling the soda fountain...
But yeah, I wouldn't trade the Cuban restaurants out here for anything. Nothing is more satisfying than a well-made Cuban sandwich.

Habit Burger is pretty Bleh. One of these opened up in north LA county recently. There's been a line out the door for weeks now, so figured I'd see what all the hub-Bub was about - and should have went to Wendy's instead :/ Not nearly as good as the rest of the competition.
Ell Pollo Loco is alright though. Rubio's is fucking fantastic. Salmon burrito they have there is the tits.

Yo Kroger's chicken game is not be dismissed.
