    I stopped by yesterday to grab breakfast before kicking off my Christmas Eve, and it was an awesome experience! From the moment I pushed the red button to when I got my food, the customer service was top-notch and the food was fresh and delicious. The manager, Jessica, was incredibly pleasant and welcoming. I’ll definitely be back—you can truly see (and feel) the huge improvements at this Sonic over the past few months!

    I have eaten at Sonic in a long time. My wife eats there is why I ate there. I ordered a footlong hot dog. The sandwich was too soggy where I couldn't eat it by picking it up. I see why they include a fork with it. They need to include a knife also. I did NOT enjoy eating it like that. There got to be a better why? The tater totes and fries were very hard. We didn't eat most them. I don't think I will try it again. Telling It Like it IS 👎 TerryB 🦼
