- DTDominique TateDec 30, 20255.0This sonic doesn't seem to be lazy when preparing someone's food and drink icees. I came at night around 10:00 and the everything was great
- JBJimmy ButtsNov 19, 20251.0I’m not usually the type to write a review, but this definitely deserves one. I ordered a Cookie Dough Sonic Blast, and this is what I received…completely unacceptable.
- LPLinda PotheadNov 18, 20251.0THIS PLACE SHOULD BE ILLEGAL!! First off the food tastes like garbage it tastes like a rubber and nut mixture. And on top of that the man taking my order decided to use the roller skates and roll the food out to my car. When he came out of the back area of the sonic I could already tell he was pretty shaky on the skates so I knew something was gonna go down. The man fell and spilled my drinks and meat rockets all over my interior I am absolutely pissed off and am ready for compensation as he has ruined the interior of my car. Even if I was starving I wouldn't step foot into this establishment and I advise you not to either!!
- RBRyan BuistNov 17, 20252.0Prices are more expensive than the quanity or quality of food.. Shakes have always been good but thats about it.
- JKJohn “Johnny Hot Sauce” KellyNov 3, 20254.0Very busy when I went but food was still hot and good so made up for the wait. Love the ice and their shakes.
