Ok never coming back. 20 mins for 2 shakes when I can see 3 people standing inside doing nothing. 2 days ago they gave away my food and never let me know. Just made me wait. I've already paid and ready to drive away. Just watched some guy go to the bathroom get REALLY high by the looks of it and go back to work while I wait.

Got a raw burger the other day and cold hot food. Spoke to the manager and they said they would remake it. Got a remake the guess what, burger is still cold and they didn’t even mix the ice cream. Never go to this sonic. $26 for

Service was incredible. I'm not sure who my server was, but he was bubbly and energetic and seemed overjoyed to help out when we ordered. When he brought our food, he actually ran back in the restraunt with our card to pay for our food and then back out, it must have taken him less than 20 seconds. Incredible guy. Probably the second time I've eaten at a Sonic, but I got a super sonic burrito (I'm pretty sure?), and it was great.

Food is always hot and drinks cold. But when I order on the app it takes me more than 20mins to just get 4 drinks.

I recently tried the Sonic Blast ice cream at Sonic Drive-In and I have to say, it was delicious! The ice cream was creamy and the mix-ins were perfectly blended throughout. The portion size was generous and I loved the variety of flavors to choose from. The only reason I didn't give it 5 stars is because the price was a bit high for a fast food dessert. Overall, I would definitely recommend trying a Sonic Blast if you're craving something sweet and satisfying.

This place is the absolute worst place it don't matter what time of day or night , doesn't matter if you're the only car there or not you will wait at least 20 minutes to have them bring you something you didn't order . We waited 10 minutes at the speaker to place an order we was the only car there and we ordered a bag of ice , pulled around and waits another 15 minutes we could see them in there standing around talking and laughing. They came out and tried to give us 2 bags of food when we asked what it was they said it's your order. I said we ordered a bag of ice 20 minutes ago and asked if we could just what we ordered . Rather than just make the order right they want to argue like we messed up their order . Everytime we go here it's always a long wait and they always and I repeat always mess up and try to give us something we didn't order or they go car to car asking is thei yours and going through people's food because they dont know whats what or who ordered what . Theirs also no method here you can order something and then have two cars behind you get their order before you do . Worse service , workers and food for all the restaurants in this immediate area . Save yourself time and the hassle of having to argue to get what you simply ask for and avoid this place .

Hot but absolutely horrible, waited far too long for mediocre food and server was rude.

Chicken was over cooked, bun was burnt, lettuce was brown, fries were over cooked and salty. The hamburger was super greasy. The mic didn't work at our stall and the young man walked out to tell us. No sign on the stall indicating out of service. When placing my order the young man kept cutting me off before I was even finished. Worst experience at a Sonic we have ever had.

Stale food and slow service

Employee was nice. But might have been the worst food I have ever eaten. Fries semi cold, and tasted 3 days old. Chili dog was awful. Gas station ones would have been a better

Been here 1 time forever ago and “Ashley” was mad disrespectful. After reading these reviews I don’t think I’ll ever be back to this location. I’m just waiting for it to close down so something new can be

Decided to order the popcorn chicken meal, the worker told me it would be about 6 minutes I said ok. The popcorn chicken came out hot but my fries taste like they’ve been reheated multiple times. It seems my fries are always old and cold.

Tried to order and could barely hear the guy. I thought the speaker was turned down. Nah it was just the guy working was mumbling so bad and had such a 'don't care attitude' you couldn't understand him.Sorry I wanted a hot dog, man. Probably won't be back to Sonic in a while.
