★★☆☆☆ 2.0 Jesse Baker · Feb 2026

"Ultimate" burrito was anything but. More like a jr burrito but almost $5. Rip-off for that price and for it to be that small. Contacted Sonic and they said the local management would contact me which I never heard anything. Won't be back. Hate it to because I've been coming the for many years and really enjoyed the breakfast burritos but I've watched them go up on price and down in size. Unfortunate.

Looking for a quick meal? Great! Just don't come here. I gave the benefit of the doubt after the first couple of times since I have been a somewhat frequent over the last couple of months (1-3x/month). However, more times than not, I am waiting 10-15 minutes after arrival when I expect order ahead to be faster than typical service. I shouldnt be able to go somewhere, order, and make it back to work with my food faster than I pick up food here at sonic, the closest place to my job. The food is great, but I'd rather not spend half my lunch time waiting. Definitely coming here less frequently going forward.

Order: order of onion rings(they were out), corn dog(extremely chewy), foot long coney island with tots(both cold, tots were hard and inedible). The only thing that was decent was the coke which was full of ice and the coke looked like tea in it. Looking at the reviews, this seems to be a trend for service. We had to push the button twice because they didn't add condiments and it took 9 minutes to respond.

Food and drink are fine but the service is ridiculous. Order at the screen, or mobile app and you will be waiting awhile either way. Waited over 10 minutes today for a mobile order placed well in advance... Service was very dependable a few years ago but has clearly fallen off. Then get served cold fries and told it was because someone placed a $100 order. Again why have the mobile option then?

Got served a 3 hour old smash burger. Got food poisoning from it. Don’t eat here.
