The Lexington location of a national burger chain has closed. What we know
A national burger chain location in a busy part of Lexington has bid farewell.
The Habit Burger & Grill location at 5304 Sunset Blvd. is closed, according to signage posted on the doors and windows at the restaurant. The Lexington Habit Burger is no longer listed among the chain’s locations on its website, and is marked as “permanently closed” on Facebook.
“This location is closed,” read a sign on the restaurant’s door on Friday morning. “Thank you for your patronage and support throughout the years.”
The Lexington Habit Burger location opened in Jan. 2024. The site at 5304 Sunset Blvd. formerly was home to Uno Pizzeria and Grill, which closed in April 2022 after 19 years at that location. The former Uno building at the site was demolished to make way for Habit Burger.
Habit Burger started in 1969 in Santa Barbara, California. The chain’s menu includes a host of burgers, chicken sandwiches, salads and more.
The Lexington Habit Burger was located about three miles from Interstate 20 and about a mile from a large Target-anchored shopping center. About 38,000 cars per day travel down that stretch of Sunset Boulevard, per state Department of Transportation statistics.
