The food was not too great, high priced, nothing what you thought you ordered for a high price, bringing my kids to a restaurant next .time, it was a waste of taste and money.

The 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.

This 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.
