“One of the better sonic establishments in the albuquerque area our orders came out fresh and delicious and the server was fast and polite i had to drive longer to this sonic compared to the one thats down the road from our home but ill still make that drive if we are in the mood for sonic. After trying most sonics here in abq this one is the one to try“
“Another Quick burger bite, they fill the hunger void when a WhataBurger isn't within driving distance, stay away from the newest Sonic on the Westside of Albuquerque, wrong orders, bad attitudes, definitely brings the local franchise down a few notches.“
“$2 burgers that blow McDonald's away, add in the $2 shakes, half price drinks after 7, half price burgers on Tuesdays after 5, decent rewards deals, and better value sides there's no reason to visit the golden arches when one of these are around. Breakfast is good here too, though there's no hashbrowns.
This might be the value leader for a good fast food burger right now, highly recommended for people on a budget looking for a burger fast. Groovy fries are good too, onion rings are more like a desert item (taste like funnel cake or something). Don't forget to get 5 free groovy sauces with every order, the sauce is spicy and very tasty.
Parking: Plenty of parking in the shade, nice spot to chill in your car on a hot day.“
“The only thing I could possibly complain about is that the shake machine is always getting cleaned three times a week apparently and during the day. I love the oreo cheesecake mastershake. I get one every day and have to drive to two different locations because of the machine being cleaned. It should be done after dark during closing or when operations are slow. Other than that I love the place. I love the French toast sticks!!“
“As anyone knows in todays world, its almost impossible to find quality food & service at any restaurant, especially drive thrus - well this sonic is the exception! I found true gems in the real human women that care about making you an awesome meal at an affordable price at this location. I will never visit any other sonic now that Ive met shift leader Tranette & amazing cook Maria. Management needs to be aware that these 2 amazing women should be retained, treated with the utmost respect and thanked for turning this sonic into a place I can look forward to spending my $ with. I cant thank them enough for the quality they provide daily.“
“This place always has a line and there is always a wait ESPECIALLY on weekends.. but the food and drinks are always good with some questionable employees at the window. But, we're in the midst of a pandemic so considering the circumstances they're doing well enough.. thanks“
“What you would expect from a fast food place. We ordered ahead and only waited about 2 minutes for our food to arrive. The food was at the correct temperature and was over soggy with grease. I do wish they had placed more napkins in the bag especially since we ordered a kids' meal. Had to ask for condiments which should be a given or at least asked instead of waiting for the customer to ask.“
“Well maintained and friendly service here I like that the faces are friendly and we can park wherever we want to enjoy our food they do the best they can to get it out to us in the timely manner and they still manage to make a good team working together“
“It's hump day, and I found myself straddling a hump...
Anytime you order something that should be served in a certain position, you assume (my fault, I know) that one would serve it correctly, right?!
Well, not today. I was handed my bag through the drive thru window, and this is what I received for my All-American dog. Didn't even get a plastic fork! Take a look at the photos. So disappointed.
Yes, I can put the toppings back on, but that's not the point.“
“Customer service was pretty shity, she didn't know if the ice cream was frozen yet. IDK what the heck that's supposed to mean..... but almost left had to ask her how long it would take and she then realized that ice cream was cold enough. At that point we were able to buy peanut butter milkshake only because we asked how long it would take.“
“My only complaint is that the car hop spots that don't work are not marked in any way so that you sit trying to decide what you want to do(leave or drive thru). Having said that, I decided to do the drive thru, which I had avoided due to line, and I'm glad I did. The team you had working really knew how to work together. In all the years I've lived in Albuquerque, I'm not sure if I've ever been through a line as fast as today. Even when I was the only one in the drive thru line! Great job Sonic! 👏🙂“
“Nothing is what it was five years ago in the restaurant business. But we still go to Sonic once in a while to have a burger and tots in the car. Can't say I'm happy with the way the car kiosks have been disappearing, but they have to keep to their main drive through cash cow. Still, the food is reliable and the tots are great...just more expensive now, but what isn't?“
“Ignore most of the reviews. Going through the drive-thru takes a long time. Just park in a stall, turn off your car, save some gas, and let them bring the food to you?? What's o hard about that y'all ?
Anyways,
Definitely a great Sonic location. Friendly staff, speedy service, tasty treats. I was very impressed with the smashed burger.
I order from the app around 5x/ week, and this location delivers great service 9.5/10 times. One time I waited for some ten minutes after ordering ahead and had to leave before my bkfast was ready or risk being late to work.
The breakfast burritos and Rechargers are great and well-prepared. Dairy treats, especially the master shakes, are awesome!
Definitely recommend the app if you don't have it already... Ordering ahead means they prepare your order while you drive there. Plus there are discounts, and it's easy to tip.
Parking: You can turn off of 8th Street instead of Avenida. There's a small entrance.“
“It's next to Goodwill. More driving through than parking at the stall. Waiting time at the stall is not bad. If you order over the app ahead of going to the restaurant, make sure to only click the red arrow at the lower right corner in the Sonic app after you park at the stall. There's a bug about the app. If you click it early, it will tell you that you are not at the location. And when you get to the location, you won't find the check-in button on the app. If you can't check in, just go to the door and ask for your order.“
“Or visits are usually ice cream and drink related.. cranberry, cherry, and strawberry limemades are our go-to beverages.. ice cream flavor usually depends on our mood. Chocolate chip cookie dough with added strawberry has been my favorite lately.“
“Might be a biased review, I am Canadian and we don't have any Sonics so I like to go here at least once every visit to the States.
The establishment was clean and well lit. The drive thru attendant was respectful and spoke clearly.
I got a Footlong Chili Cheese Dog with Chili Cheese Tots, a Rt. 44 Ocean Water light on the ice and a Frito Chili Cheese wrap with 5 Chicken Tenders on the side. All the food was warm, fresh and tasty!“
“I found my sonic! I come for breakfast every Saturday morning & everything is made perfectly & the crew is ultra helpful & kind! I have a sonic across the street that isn't managed well so I drive 5 min to this one & it's well worth it every time!“
“The food was the best I've had at any Sonic anywhere around New Mexico. The service was fast and really friendly. I wish I could say that the atmosphere was the same but I just can't. Not their fault, don't let the people smoking meth and fentanyl in the alley scare you off.“
