Customer Reviews
DISGUSTING. DO NOT ORDER FROM HERE. We went thru the drive thru on January 18th around 9:50pm. We ordered popcorn chicken with onions ring and medium blue raspberry slushy with nerds, popcorn chicken with tater tots and medium grape slushy with nerds, medium grape slushy with nerds, side of fries, ranch, honey mustard, bbq sauce and ketchup packets. We got home after we got our food, went to eat the popcorn chicken and most of the nuggets were RAW. We accidentally ate some of the nuggets without noticing at first and now have food poisoning. We threw away everything we ordered. This was the most disgusting experience we’ve had going to fast food restaurant. The attached photos are of the raw popcorn chicken from our order. We will be contacting corporate.
I recently stopped by Sonic Drive-In, and it was such a great experience from start to finish! The service was fast and friendly — the carhop was super cheerful and made sure my order was just right. The food was fresh, hot, and delicious. I ordered a Double Cheeseburger with tater tots, and both were cooked perfectly. The burger was juicy, the bun was soft, and the tots were golden and crispy. Of course, I couldn’t resist one of their famous Cherry Limeades — refreshing, sweet, and the perfect balance of flavor. What I really love about Sonic is the classic drive-in vibe — it’s fun, nostalgic, and super convenient. Whether you’re dining in your car, grabbing a quick snack, or stopping by for one of their endless drink combinations, Sonic always delivers. Highly recommend for anyone cra
Sonic was good. We love the burgers and onion rings. If you haven't been to a sonic you have to try one. Slushes are great, and shakes are huge. We know the highway construction has been a challenge for Sonic so we hope it gets better when roads open up in November.
Sonic drive-through‘s are typically slow. That’s always been a norm that I grew up with. But your food always comes out tasting better and looks well prepared. No negative comments here.
Every time we go here our order is messed up. Like, drastically messed up. It's like they try to their hardest to not follow the food instructions. Also, today we had an order pick-up. Ordered at 4pm for a pick-up at 5:10pm. We got their at 5:00, pushed the button, "We'll be right out." We waited 20 minutes and pushed the button again. "Oh... we forgot about you. We will bring the food right out." Our food was cold and almost every item was wrong in some way.
