    Los estacionamientos muy pequeños para camionetas grandes (we don't fit) anyways. La comida cara y muy pequeñas las hamburguesas. Mmm si pueden evitarlo, mejor vayan a otro lado.

    I always get the french toast sticks which are my favorite! And they didn't disappoint this time either.

    My partner and I stopped by after a very long and stressful day for two pops. It was late at night, and the app was yet again experiencing technical problems. I spoke with Lydia who had EXCELLENT customer service and was able to help me out. App problems are so common for Sonic it seems, but not only did Lydia take it in stride despite the fact that the employees have no control over the app, she improved my night and put a smile on my and my husband’s faces. My only regret from this visit was not having more cash on hand for a tip.

    The girl that brought our food out to the stalls seemed to be rushing as shes basically dropping the drinks in my hand even though there was one other car in a stall. Afterwards, me and my friend were talking, we stayed past 11 in my car for 3 minutes and a lady came out and yelled at us to leave, when we didn't move right away she continued to yell at us. She was leaving anyway! If you don't have customer service skills maybe don't deal with the customer yourself. This was my first time at a Sonic so if they had rules on parking after close then news to me. Won't be coming back anyways.
