    This is a Sonic, so keep your expectations in check. The order is never quite right, as evidenced by a tomato slice that is sticking to Stall #16. Guess they decided to throw it there to memorialize the incorrect order. However, sometimes you need a corndog and Sonic is a reliable corndog. The folks are generally very nice at this Sonic, so leave the kids a few dollars even when they get the order wrong. Life is short.

    I ate here once; got food poisoning, and, never went back... Better to be hungry than to be sick! What a vile shop... Absolutely disgusting!

    I’m honestly tired of always leaving this Sonic with something to complain about. Every time I come here, there’s an issue which is really disappointing because the other Sonic that closed down at least showed empathy toward their customers. At this location, the staff often seem annoyed when you ask for something or have a question. Today, I ordered a Powerade with EASY ICE!! through the app something very simple. When I picked it up, it felt unusually heavy, and when I looked inside, the cup was filled to the top with ice. This happens far too often. It’s also frustrating when you order shakes and they don’t have whipped cream or certain ingredients, and no one lets you know until after you’ve paid. I understand if items run out, but good communication goes a long way. For anyone ordering “easy ice,” just know you might want to select “no ice” instead because they don’t seem to pay attention to those details. It feels like the team isn’t even reading the tickets and just gives whatever they want. I’m a paying customer and usually leave good reviews, but this experience was really disappointing. I don’t want to be that “complaining customer,” but this location could use better training and stricter quality checks to ensure customers get what they actually order. Please make improvements I’d love to see this Sonic do better.
