    Got my order completely wrong. We asked for no onions on a burger, they assured us that burger came with no onions and so didn't put that request in the system. When we got home the burger had a PILE of onions on it, so I didn't have any dinner. Ordered mozzarella sticks too that were just completely missing. Two stars because on the rare occasions that the food is correct, it's tasty.

    This Sonic is out-dated - the card machines that the stalls don’t work. The staff is friendly, but you can’t tell they’re not supported by whoever owns this Sonic. The late who brought out our food was so nice. I hope the staff gets better working environments and updated tech infrastructure to make their lives a little easier in this age.

    STAY AWAY FROM THIS LOCATION unless you have hours to sit and wait for your order to be ready. Then, once you do get any service the manager is RUDE and obviously an uneducated female. She has no clue on how to speak to customers. Cars that were in the drive-thru were even having to back out after waiting for so long to even order. Just stay away.
