Management should hire more people. I saw 1 woman trying her best to do it all, it was a busy time on a sat. Please give her a raise or hire more people, this is insane

you need to pay your workers more. this is insane. one poor woman doing her best running the entire place all day. this is severely understaffed and the owner should be ashamed at themselves for making people work in such horrible conditions. i feel bad for the people working here. they all deserve raises. franchise owner is incredibly greedy.

Food was good but when I took my oder I told her tots for the kids meals. She didn't make them meals. I had to repeat myself several times. To then get the kids meals without tots and fries instead,also my tots weren't even in the bag and had to call on the intercom to get it. Then had to tell them they forgot my recipe. When the person came out to give me my tots didn't have my recipe and had to fo back inside to get it. So that was annoying. But we don't have a Sonic near us and haven't had it in years. Would have been a better experience had the staff done better. We stayed and ate there so it wasn't horribly inconvenient. Could have been worse if we left and had to come back.

Door Dash order sat there for two hours! Tried to contact the store and their phone system only let's you leave a message to a mail box is full. This is the second time and last time I ordered with the same issue. never again.

i asked a teenager here to make a drink that doesn’t exist on their menu and he said “i’ll do it but it might break the machine so give me a few minutes”.

If the health department did their job and came out or sent out shoppers to order and eat this place food they would be in violation this place is horrible you can tell the employees don’t give a damn about the customers the managers are there just to say they work and get a check well that’s sad people spending their hard earned money to come and experience some shitty ass food all the time I have never had a hot burger or hot fries I guess they leave that shet in the bin until they sale them all wow 01/16/2025 3:40 order about 5 chili dogs for my boys to try the hot dogs were tough like leather shoes chili salty and barely any on the hotdog what a waste of my money and my time want be going back there again

Let me say this
A stores services is a product of the ownership
This store has horrible reviews so ownership plays a huge part of this save money go the cheapest way we can that’s the norm now only one to lose is us the paying customer who get dog shit for food and horrible customer service….

Decent but NOT fast food. 10 minutes waiting to order when first in line and another 10 minutes to receive the sandwich.

Make sure you check your order! Paid for sides (cheese sticks, cheesy tots) and twice now they weren't in the bag at the drive through.

The staff are truly trying their best, but this location is always severely understaffed and everybody in the area knows it - you will always wait 30min or longer for your order.

SONIC NEEDS TO PAY THESE EMPLOYEES MORE, OR THIS LOCATION WILL SHUT DOWN!!

This Sonic gets a bad rap, but I've never had a problem here. I love the tater tots and milkshakes!

I’ve been here twice before, the first two meals were good, I went to this location last Monday, it was not good. I ordered a double bacon cheeseburger, it was lukewarm, cheese was not even melted, the onions were very strong, almost rancid. The burger did not taste good. The tater tots were also served cold. I only ate half of the burger, and my stomach started hurting about 2 hours later. I won’t go back.
