- TBTrish BurkettDec 28, 20255.0The young man who was BY HIMSELF tonight (12.27.25) near closing, deserves a raise. He got our order 100% correct and it was hot and fresh. Everything was really good, even the 2 cherry limeades we ordered, that a lot of Sonics are messing up on, we're delicious. Please let him know he is appreciated.
- JSJoel SernaOct 23, 20251.0This is by far the worst sonic i have visited in my life!!!! Dont even bother keep driving!! Been here 28 minutes no food yet
- RFRochelle FitzgeraldOct 2, 20252.0This location has changed a lot. Very few customers because the food is no longer fresh. Only the drive thru has been open for months now, there are no carhops. And I believe there may be 1-2 people employed at a time so that means 1-2 people are doing everything simultaneously. Food is not fresh. Location is not fresh. The iconic Cherry Limeade was not even served like Sonic serves it. Other restaurants in the area have invested in the upgrading of their buildings and service because new business and residences are now in Baytown. This location may need to shut down for a short time to rebrand and hire enough staff to come up to the level of the Sonic brand.
- AAAllison AvirettAug 29, 20251.0If I could leave no stars I would. Took at least fifteen minutes to get TWO drinks I ordered online. Pulled into a spot, and hit the red button to inform them I had arrived, because the app wouldn't let me check in. No one answered, so I pulled into the drive through where no one answered the intercom. I was eventually motioned to pull forward. I gave my name, and was informing her of my order but the girl just walked off. I will not be coming back, and do not recommend this location to others. There were only 3 other cars in the parking lot
- SPSonja PAug 1, 20251.0I ordered 2 route 44 sweet peach teas & a cheeseburger with mustard, mayo & extra lettuce. My tea was watered down & tasted awful! My burger barely had any lettuce & gobs of mayo & mustard oozed out everywhere, as you can see in the photos. I will NEVER STOP here again!! I had to throw away my drinks & the burger!!
