I like Sonic and the new smashburgers are a hit!
We love them. We ordered the pretzel bun smashburger with bacon.... so good!
The new fries are good, but I liked Sonic fries before too. My wife loves the tator-tots and Sonic onion rings are also a treat.
We like the new burgers but also hope the classic super Sonic burger doesn't go away. Chili cheese dogs are good... no complaints.
I do recommend this location and the smashburger!
This location always has friendly staff

I ordered through the app, two combo meals. The server who brought the food brought a bag of mozzarella sticks (didn’t order them) and then proceeded to take 15 minutes before someone finally gave me the time to tell them my order was wrong. They treated me very rudely, like I was the problem for getting the wrong order. They were very short and dismissive of the extra hour I had to spend waiting for my food. I called and the cook picked up, who was the only person who seemed apologetic in any way, so props to her for that. But the carhops were extremely disrespectful, given that they mixed up the receipts and made the mistake. Normally, I’d let stuff like this slide because people make mistakes. What’s not okay is to make the customer feel responsible for the stores mess up. Wildly unprofessional and should be immediately addressed by management.

At Sonic, we only ordered 4 drinks and we’ve sat for 45 minutes. When I asked about it they answered and said they were no longer taking any orders. They didn’t look that busy and had I not already paid, I would have left.
