Service was a little slow in delivery to car of purchased food; however the carhop guy was extremely kind about the inconvenience and redeemed the entire experience.

We were the only ones at this location this morning. Food came out cold. If I could give less than a star for service I would. Girl with the name tag Taylor came out and shoved the food at me and didn't say a word. I said thank you, she huffed and walked away. Cold burrito cold service. I get a bad day but let's not make it everyone's problem.

Ordered 47.00 dollars of food, asked for BBQ sauce for chicken and was told it was an extra charge. Called and spoke with someone who said was manager and was met with rudeness. Needless to say that I won't be spending money here anymore, there are plenty places with polite staff to go to

I've been here a few times. It's a rather nice Sonic Drive-In, compared to my experiences working in and out of them during early adulthood. The employees are nice, do their job efficiently, and the food is above the average quality I tend to experience.
