Sonic Drive-In in Houston

“I'm so grateful ? for the employees that came to work in this disaster hurricane. We still don't have lights after 5 days, but I appreciate the food being hot & delicious and also the kind warming service we got. Thanks so much!!“

“The song that was excellent it was all fresh and the key was excellent the right amount of sugar and everything

Parking: It's not actually the parking because everybody has their boots that they drive up into but the waitresses were there friendly and very respectable and they have so many options for children dinners there

Kid-friendliness: I just seen on their menu what they had and it was a good child's menu and a lot of different choices for the parents“

“Good food. Fast service But just Lazy attempt to make good on expectations. I got a Sonic Blast M&M and talk about just last. They put all my M&M on top and thought that would be enough to please. Stop me if I ask you to mix them into my Blast. You work at a low paying job cuz you do work like this... Wow the generation told just won't make it. SAD“

“Sonic has always been a childhood favorite of mine. I love the fact that they kept the happy hour slushy deal! The flavors are nostalgic and delicious. I ordered a mixed slushy of blood orange, cherry limeade and peach flavoring. It was sweet and had the right amount or tartness. Can’t wait to try even more flavor combinations.“

“Half the stalls don't work and the people are rude, and slow with cloths on that look like they been in it for days, the attitude the girls have need to be fired but it's the only one in the area but I'm about find another one my south stores I made friends with the car hops but here in the north they don't care. It's sad“

“Sonic Drive-In is such a fun place to grab a bite! I love the drive-in style, and the food is always fresh and delicious. The burgers, tots, and slushes are my go-to — especially on a hot day. The staff is friendly, and the service is usually quick. It’s a great spot to chill and enjoy some classic fast food!“

“The service I receive is nice and polite. The dining area is kept clean. I’ve been here a few times and my food is always fresh, order accurate, and properly prepared. I am an ice cream/shake fiend and I was particularly impressed with the Strawberry Cheesecake shake I got today. I felt like I got exactly what I asked for and will definitely be returning for more!“

“It's sonic, if you like it, then you already know what you're getting. 1/2 price Tuesday cheeseburgers are always nice.This sonic also has the chicken fried steak sandwich which is my favorite.Daily deals...for flavor to price it's hard to beat.“

“I tried the new Smash Double. I liked it, definitely hit the spot. The chicken bites were kind of a miss for me, though. Too much breading, I think. The chicken itself was good and was piping hot, but the breading was a bit thick and hard. I had a vanilla shake with my meal. That was another plus side item, very enjoyable. The employee at the moment window was on top of their game too. There was a car in front of the window, but the employee stepped out through a side door to get my shake to me early. That was very much appreciated. By the way, you can see a glimpse of the Astrodome from the drive-thru!“

“This Sonic is located on a relatively quiet street, surrounded by trees. It feels like rolling into the 80s. Ording was quick and delivery as well. After a quick check that all items were there we could munch away.

The tater tots were great, and all around we had a great meal! Not sure if we should have asked for dipping sauces or if they were forgotten, but anyway they weren’t even necessary. I’ll definitely come back here. And then feel a little guilty not cooking for myself.“

“I've never posted a review for a fast food place until today.
I stopped to get a breakfast burrito and
I was utterly shocked at how POLITE & SUPER FRIENDLY everyone was. From the young lady taking my order over the speaker to the 2 separate carhops who brought me my food....they were all so nice.
Also...my food was piping hot; like almost burn my mouth hot! But I'm not complaining at all, it just caught me off guard. When's the last time you've been to a fast food joint and actually got hot food? I'll wait... lol.
Whoever the owner & manager are I applaud you. Yall have hired and trained some awesome young adults. Everyone at this location should be proud. Keep up the great work. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️“

“I went to this one couple weeks ago, that smash burger was so good..Veggies so fresh... They are a dollar right now to lol telling ya, I couldn't believe they beat on taste and how it was put together then other places I've tried...I had a shmunchies to so it tripled in goodness Js Nice guys!“

“Jerome is the sweetest person! He was so efficient with our order and very patient. He apologized for the “wait” which really was nothing, and that showed me just how high his expectations are for the customer service! Our order was perfect, will be coming back to this Sonic.“

“We didn't get a hold of the key to the restroom so we walked to Kroger. I think a lot of the staff is new. Our drinks were great, but you could tell the service was slightly lacking. And by service I do not mean the carhop; she was friendly!“

“Had a craving for a Chile dog
And I knew that sonic has a pretty good dog. They didn't disappoint
Plenty of fixings nice soft bun
If you don't want the drive through you can park your car in the designated spots and a car hop will come take your order. When ready they'll bring it out to you.
I had an easy in and out.
Check out the menu. Not bad“

“I have visited this sonic many times and every time I come I receive awesome service. One of the sonic members in particular makes sure he puts a smile on our face every time with his jokes and crazy antics. I regret not asking his name, but once I find out I will be sure to mention him ! He needs a raise ! Thanks Sonic for the best service.“

“I rarely bother with doing reviews or anything like this, But bless Christine for having such a bright, wonderful attitude at 10 o clock at night. This sonic is a bit further from me, but with her type of service I’ll gladly be making this drive again rather than going to one closer!“

“This location is very clean and what really got me is that THERE IS A LOBBY! I REPEAT THERE'S A LOBBY HERE!!!
Everyone here who has super sweet.
I usually eat the same thing each time. I go to a sonic and I love how proportionated is the chile is to the cheese. I'm very big on when everything gets stuck on the paper. There's nothing left on my hot dog, but they packed it just right“

“Honestly, not bad for a drive in restaurant. The convience of waiting in your car while your food is being made serves out a great market for people who are in a hurry. The added dining room outside was good. I would definitely return to Sonic for a snack and that's mainly it.“

“Didn't get my order right AFTER repeating it 3x but staffing was friendly

2/24/25 Unfortunately change my review to 1 star. On this date
Sat at drive thru for over 15mins to not order even tho they said they would be right with us. Eventually a line of cars accumulated and still no response. I drove up to window and was still ignored needless to say there was full staffing inside (working on orders from car hops I’m assuming). including a shift mgr. I knocked on window no response. I finally did open to inquire about the delay or and was rudely told not to by Matt I’m assuming.
I do secret shopping at times for assigned establishments. If I was on assignment. This establishment would be lowly rated. Total disappointment in customer service capabilities. I left with my elderly parent who was placing a large order.“

“I had a wonderful experience with a lady named kacey. I don’t know if she was the manager or not but she should 100% get a raise or something. Absolutely amazing person fixed my issue real fast with no issue or signs on complaint. I tried tipping her but she couldn’t accept cashless tips, next time i go here i will for sure bring cash to tip her.“

“The day manager is a real sweetie. He’s always so friendly and so nice and comes out to greet you and it’s just an overall cool person. However his staff always seems to be in a hurry and irritated even though they have a smile on their face it looks like you’re forcing them at gunpoint to do so. It’s impossible here to ever get condiments and when you ask for them the staff always seems really put out by it. That bothers me because at every other sonic in the United States they usually have ketchup or sugar or whatever in their apron pocket to assist when a customer asks for napkins or ketchup. But at this location I don’t know if it means that they are just short on catchup packets and maybe the employees get tested if they have to go back in and get something for a customer but it really ruins the dining experience when you see your car hop rolled her eyes at you to go and get something that should’ve been included in the first place. The only reason I’m giving it four-star is because I love the route 44 drinks and ice and the manager is a great example of how all employees should act. I do hope that he sees us and uses the constructive criticism to remind cops that he can 100% change a persons opinion of a restaurant if they forgot some thing to just smile genuinely and say no problem let me get that for you. Because it isn’t a problem or at least it shouldn’t be. But a comment of yeah Fine hold on and an eye roll really sours the experience no matter how good the food is you’re not gonna want to come back to this location. Just saying.“

“The car hop brought back change from my $20. She did not give us the .87 back, I guess she decided to keep it for a tip. I did pull up to the drive through to bring this situation to their attention. I wanted them to let the car hop know that I was prepared to give her a two dollar tip. If only she had not made the decision to take the coins. I would also like to say that it is possible she could not make change, as we've seen, the younger generation has difficulty with this. Regardless of the reason this needs to be addressed.“

“Awesome Sonic!!! Service was fast and friendly and food was hot and yummy ?
Only 1 little complaint...and it's about the parking lot area ..Please take up the big yellow chunk of concrete out that's right next the driveway because when you're driving and turning in to the right it is not very noticeable and it could mess up someone's rims as it sticks up like a curb.“

“I went there to sonic on Almeda Genoa and they said their ice cream machine doesn’t work so they couldn’t make shakes. I went there specifically for the peanut butter bacon shake to share with my granddaughter whom is almost five years old. we drove from there all the way to Scarsdale location. As I’m getting home I realize the shake is only peanut butter shake. We ordered the peanut butter bacon shake. I was so disappointed!“

“Been here in the past and have to say the atmosphere around the place has really changed. A more welcome feeling i guess. The employees displayed a whole new change in management and orderliness. Respect and courteousness made a big difference in change at this location. Keep it up!“

“Stopped by after picking up my kid from cheer practice and was pleasantly surprised! The service was fantastic and the food was delicious. You can really tell the staff care and take pride in what they do, something you don’t see at most fast food places these days. I’ll definitely be coming back!“

“Joshua and his guys absolutely killed it with our front yard. Bushes and trees are now cleaned up, and our lawn might be the best in Charlotte. My new favorite company for lawn care in Charlotte. Thanks!Been using The Groundsmen for a few months now and I’m super happy. They’re always on time and consistent. Hard to find lawn care in Concord this reliable.“

“Food is ok. You're not looking for or going to find super high quality food at a fast food establishment, but the food is good, hot and fresh, and the drink menu is diverse. The food has gotten a bit more expensive over the years, but that's kinda everywhere, due to inflation and rising food costs, across the board, so it's not really their fault, but it leaves you wishing it was 10 years ago. I'll definitely eat here again.“

“Yesterday, we decided on trying this location because we were in the area and wanted something quick to eat. We ended up getting 3 things. The garlic butter bacon burger with fries and a large coke, the new Buffalo chicken bites, and a Jr burger for my son.The Garlic Butter Bacon Burger was decent for the most part, but the only problem was the bacon itself. The bacon tasted like it sat out all day, maybe a couple of days old. It tasted like bacon jerky. The rest of the burger was actually really good.The Buffalo chicken bites, though, were my favorite. It was perfectly crispy, and the Buffalo chicken inside was the perfect amount, and I got a 5 piece. The only thing I wish they would've given me was something to dip them into, like ranchMy son's burger was a bit dry. We asked for his burger to be plain, not dry. My son liked it, though. He usually likes his burger with cheese and mustard. The fries were crispy.The server, Marisol, was the only one working, and I respect that. Her customer service was exceptional. Next time we're in the area, we'll return.“

“We went for a chocolate shake and ice cream. They were overwhelmed with the volume. For me, it's not a issue waiting for what I would like. What really makes a difference is service.The lady at the drive up window was extremely polite and kind. Whoever she is needs to be recognized for that. We went Wednesday March 13 around 11 or 12 at night.“

“I have no complaints at all for this sonic. They have always done me good over the years of going here. Today I ordered a double bacon cheese burger fully customized with tator tots and a cherry limeade. I put my order in on the app and drove less than 10 minutes to get there. My food was ready to go and they brought it out to me quickly and with everything I needed including sauces I asked for and napkins.“

“It took a long time to get just a drink, but there was only one person, I wish I could've gotten his name. He was busting his butt to get everyone taken care of. The owner should take care of this man. It was @1030 Thursday morning. I am already trying to find a position for him and hire him away because I know he does not get paid enough for his work ethics. Good job sir!!!“

“I just want to give a thank you to Jazmine. I couldn’t get my app to work she couldn’t understand exactly what I was saying so she came out to my car assist me. She got my order corrected and worked int the problem. She went a above and beyond with a smile. Thank you so much, it’s rare to find customer service like this these days with a smile Five stars all the way and yeah the food was great!“

“Fantastic service. Our order had some confusion due to something misheard over the intercom. The general manager took the initiative to double check, apologize for the error, refund us and gave us two drinks complimentary. GM went above and beyond and we really appreciated it.“

“I literally just went on this day to get a route 44 cup of ice from the back, anytime I make this request and they actually do it, I am sure to tip this person more. I tip at Sonic if I do not go through the drive thru, but to make a long story short the worker went and got the ice from the back and did not forget to bring me a straw and a long spoon 🥄 I was so grateful and I will return just because of this service.“

““Mr Harold at sonic so nice on Eldridge so kind give support on Google and fb!(:” - copied from my notes app and here I am. Amazing franchise owner of this location, a very clean establishment as well. My experience though was a little more empathetic and for that reason I feel the need to emphasize the energy this location is founded on. I, as a single mother working full time, went to this location after work and after picking up my daughter from her baby sitter to get us a little drink and some snackys on our one hour commute home. I, unfortunately, had just lost my card and did not have it, and only had Apple Pay which this location does not currently have for the time being, however, fortunately, Mr. Harold was there helping at the window and got me that day on the payment as I had no way of paying and my daughter was already in the back seat excited and awaiting her fries 🥺🥹🥹 but thankfully Mr Harold was there and spared me. So shoutout to this location, I most def recommend and especially for the atmosphere created🙏🏽🫂 thank you sir.. in life the little moments like these are what ultimately make up the entire journey, and making them positive for everyone involved makes the process, the journey, the experience more enjoyable, more peaceful, more positively karmic and most importantly, worth more than what a money/cash transaction would have brought.

“I put 4 because the morning shift amazing anything after that not so much. Food is good bacon is usually over cooked but everything else great. There is one lady who is usually in drive through in the mornings I need to get her name but she is pretty great!“

“When we work in Summerwood we try to eat here a few times! Hot and fresh food, always...but they have some of the sweetest employees...that is what I enjoy the most!
