- LRLarissa RodriguezDec 13, 20252.0They are way over priced. Food presentation is horrible. Food looks old. Employee at drive thru seemed like they had an attitude when I told them they missed a whole meal. They gave it to me and even the other employee admitted she read it wrong. Just not good vibes.
- LLLovelyNov 25, 20252.0My friend and I did a mobile order and we ordered slushies, burgers, and onion rings. The slushy and burgers were pretty good but the onion rings tasted like they were made in cinnamon batter and they were too sweet. I feel like I wasted my money because I couldn’t even finish them and I ate them with sauce.
- ALAbbey LioiNov 22, 20255.0Great customer service! Great food and drinks! We got a corn dog, chili cheese tot, milkshake, and ocean water. All absolutely amazing, fresh, and tasty. This is a really good sonic!!! 5 stars!!
- BBBNov 16, 20253.0We ordered two popcorn chicken and two drinks. First, it took them awhile to take our order (we were the only ones there), then when she came out, she only had one drink. She told us we were only charged for one, and sounded like we were bothering her when we asked for the other one to be added. I told her my cranberry grape limeade only tasted like grape, and she said let me see your receipt. She said that the receipt said cranberry limeade add grape. She then walked away with the receipt, and threw the receipt away as she went back inside. I felt she didn't care and just wanted us out of there. It was still an hour before they closed, but she treated us like we arrived five minutes before they closed.
