Not once but twice had real bad customer service. Went last weekend for a sonic red bull was told they didn’t have any then I asked for just a slushy and the guy rudely said We don’t have any! I was so upset I drive across town for them to give me attitude! It’s always a group of young guys working there and they need to learn better customer service or have a supervisor on board every shift to know what’s going’s on.

Had a large order for several little mouths to feed, and what a pleasant person to greet us all so warmly! Food was great, utensils, sauce and napkins were all there. I didn’t have to ask for anything! That was an easy transaction! Yummy delicious food w/ warm sonic employees! Happy eating experience!

Went through the drive thru and ordered a cheese burger and the gentleman said we do not have cheese burger. Then we ordered hotdogs and the gentleman said we do not have any. What, we have never experienced a fast food not have items from the menu.

This has got to be the slowest Sonic that ever existed. We’ve been sitting in the drive thru 20 minutes and haven’t moved a single car. Maybe they should stop under staffing this establishment.

Food and Drinks are always good. We use the app half price drinks not having to wait or wait very long especially during busy times.

Even though there is a waiting time every time I go I have received great customer service the quality to ensure that the customer is satisfied is a tremendous play I have never had a time where I wouldn’t be back. Because the staff is so willing to help fix issues and problems that may occur for me.

We were on our way back from a road trip and never had Sonics so, we eagerly stopped by. Well…Bad service. Long wait time. And our servings were definitely off. The “strawberry cheesecake shake” was basically vanilla. The sandwiches we got were dry. I guess we aren’t stopping at Sonics ever again.

Filthy, Most screens were not working, ordered on the app, waited for 24 minutes for water tots and mozz sticks. Watched people come in and out of the stalls, but we still waited here. It should not take that long. Do not come to this specific sonic.

Food and shakes are really good. Service was great. The only bad things are they really need to upgrade parking ordering panels and the other was really disappointed to me. I took son for a delicious vanilla shake and plant on sitting at tables because can’t let the other kids see .lol . Anyway, I decided to stand because tables look like haven’t been cleaned in months.

The order was messed up and took over 20 mins to prepare. They put items which we didn’t order and the Screen was old and Faded. Not much to see in order to verify.
