    Surprisingly the food has gotten better, i stopped going to Sonic awhile back because the food quality was awful, they have changed some things now its much better. Service wasn’t bad but the guy had to go back because he forgot part of my order. Overall though given the food is better im willing to give them another try.

    Horrible. DO NOT GO. Every time I go my burger is soaked with mayonnaise. From the inside out somehow. And when I asked for a recharge AND a red bull, the lady even confirmed, "did you want a red bull can or extra in the drink". I said I wanted the can. Didn't get a can, but was told they put extra in my drink. Then why did it taste so watery? I got charged extra for nothing. Don't go. There's another one way better just down the street. VERY DISAPPOINTED Went a 4th time and it was awful. I swear this place only hires people who lost ebt. Very toxic atmosphere Still waiting on refund
