This location has good food quality.Their technology for payment systems, microphones, speakers, and more is lacking a needed upgrade because it seems the service can't hear what we are saying, and keeps asking to repeat while having popping scratching audio. When finished giving an order the past 3 times we were not able to pay at the stall. Making someone walk away and out of sight with our debit/credit card to pay. This is a huge risk where we have no idea what they are doing with our card while they take forever to pay.Oreo shakes deserve to be consumed using the straw they provide you with. A super thin straw so the chunks of Oreo shouldn't be 10x the size of the opening for the straw. The trick is to crush the Oreos before blending the shake.

The breakfast burrito and tots were good. This location is not convenient to get in and out of.

Took a while to get an answer on the stall, but understandable due to it being Halloween night. However, the person who answered then decided to SCREAM to someone else while on the intercom, another person asked if they could help us, first person came back on and attempted to take our order again 2x. We left. I Attempted to contact the manager but their concern was only the language my frustrated husband used. When I expressed how her employee yelling through the intercom to another person was representing her store, she hung up on me.Do not recommend this Sonic location. This is not the first time I’ve had poor service here. I’ve been to this location when there were only a few cars in the hop stalls and never received an answer from pressing the button, so I again left without getting food. Very disappointed with the service.I would not give them any stars if that was an option. ?

This Sonic location has really uped their game as of late. The service has been fast and the staff have been friendly. I ordered a footlong chili cheese coney and my buddy got three regular sized chil cheese coneys. I waited only 3 or 4 minutes till my food was ready. The gal who brought it out to me was very friendly and i paid with a hundred dollar bill cause it was all i had and she didnt fuss about having to go back to get change at all. I got the felling she was not expecting a tip because she brought back all bigger bills. I had her go back in again to get some ones so i could tip her for her hard work.

Took over 10 minutes to answer the call box. Then they proceeded to scream across the restaurant with the call box on. I made my order and nothing. I asked did you get that and got a response of sorry one minute please. Then they came back and asked for our order again. So we left.

Hey! They had a special price on coneys on Papa's birthday! $1.29! Limit of 5.Also the day Mother passed away!Parking: You drive up to one of the parking spots, look at the menu, press the red button, order it, and they bring the food to you. If you use the drive thru, it's essentially the same, except at this location, you pull forward to just past where the window would be (even at other Sonics), and they bring it. If you pick a slot, or park, walk up, and order on the patio, you can watch a status message regarding your order, which is, of course, missing on the drive up.On an earlier visit, a friend found they don't take Apple pay, they do on the app, just not at the drive-up, she'd have to carry a wireless device, or a lot longer cord than they have at drive-ups.Years ago, they used to deliver on roller skates. Mother's uncle was more with that, than his day at a local theme park (in full disclosure, that was back before they built 5 or 6 of their roller coasters, including a wooden coaster with two 360⁰ twists, and a water raft ride with an elevator and the longest drop around, There may have been an indoor coaster back then, but this review is supposed to be about Sonic).

This is my favorite Sonic of all in the area. I always get good food, hot food, and am served quickly by a friendly carhop. Sarah has been my carhop several times recently. She always serves me with a smile! I also really like Sonic’s technology. I appreciate that when my order is placed and checked-in, that the screen greets me. I know my order made it to them.

I had an unpleasant visit the last time I went , I definitely called corporate about the last visit.. They assured me they were going to address the situation.. So I decided I'd give it a try again.. Well I did and It was a MUCH BETTER VISIT!Kid-friendliness: It's a great atmosphere for a drive-in fast food date for the family.. or atheist my kids love it when we get too park n eat in the car and ours has food runners with skates lol it's the small things in life...
