Sonic Drive-In is a restaurant that offers meals and drinks, including a "crispy chicken" option and a "2 for 7" special on drinks and shakes. The parking is generally good when it is not busy. Customers can order through the app, which often results in quick service, but there have been issues with the accuracy of some orders, especially with cherry limeades that barely taste like cherry despite extra charges. The quality of drinks can vary, and some customers noted that the recipes might be changing, leading to nostalgia for the original flavors.
There have been reports of long wait times for food, sometimes over 30 minutes, and occasional problems with the drive-thru system being broken. The ice cream machine has also had issues, and maintenance could be improved. Some staff members, like employees named Sarah and Star, are praised for their handling of difficult situations, showing good customer service.
Recently, a customer enjoyed a strawberry cream slush from multiple locations, saying it was the best they had, with a perfect blend of ice and flavor. However, other experiences have been less positive. For example, a visit to Sonic on Bandera Road resulted in a confused order when staff could not get the order straight, and the jalapeno burger is no longer available, leaving a customer with a plain hamburger that lacked flavor. Overall, Sonic Drive-In offers decent meals and drink specials, but there is room for improvement in service, consistency, and maintenance.
