    Recently visited here to get a drink and was asked to do a survey. The girl sent something from her phone something to do with tickets or something to complete the survey and along with that these pics popped up as well. Maybe look into it.

    I've worked in restaurants and kitchens for 20 years. The main expectation anyone should have from any establishment that serves hot food is for the food to come to you....hot. It's usually a 15-20 minute wait for food when we've ordered, whether busy or not, and the food always arrives luke warm on a good day. 15-20 minute ticket times is standard for a casual sit down restaurant, not fast food. Order accuracy is hit and miss. Also, if you're going to charge patrons for sauces, you should probably make sure the sauces make it into the bag. I've had to step into the doorway of the kitchen to get the sauces I was charged for - but seriously, charging for marinara sauce for mozzarella sticks? The service has been hit or miss. Some days great, other days it's incredibly lacking. We've gone when it's been slow and left because no one answered the call button. Honestly, the fact that we havent ever been given hot fresh food is the reason why we won't be coming back. Yes, ypu can taste when fries are old, and we honestly have no idea what fresh sonic fries taste like since this location hasnt ever served them to us.

    It's usually a struggle when I take the chance on Sonic but this time was really bad. While the service was fast and the staff pleasant the food was even more rough than usual. The burger I got was thrown together in a way that suggested the person making it was angry. The onion rings were objectively horrifying. Bits of burnt and crumbling onions that looked like the bottom of an old bag. Another regretful Sonic experience.
