We waited in the drive through for 10 minutes and no one came to help us. So we decided to go inside. No one greeted us. After 5 minutes someone walked from the back and said “are you from DoorDash” and we said no just waiting to order and they proceeded to walk to the back again. After a total of 15 minutes inside and no one coming to help us, we decided to finally leave. Who I assume was a worker was standing there talking to either friends or family who were sitting in the booths and when we walked out she yelled “are yall waiting on something”. That’s some crazy service.

This place should just close. Over 30 minutes for a single beverage order is insane. Properly staff or close

Sat in the drive window with people seeing me yet completely ignoring the fact that I was sitting there waiting for my food. My food was cold and fries were burnt. Definitely not worth going there.

Ordered a double cheeseburger and when I took a bite out of it I noticed there was bacon on it. I am allergic to bacon and this has happened twice now.

Honestly we were excited about visiting sonic. But this one specifically was terrible. The restaurant was empty (we should have left then), the floors covered in grease and were slippery. The tv screens - 1 was working. 1 was off (broken) and it appeared 1 or 2 were gone. The male staff member was fantastic. However we ordered our youngest a grilled cheese and they gave him a burger. We didnt want to make a scene so I tossed the burger and purchased a grilled cheese. The tots were tasty. The food otherwise was blah.
