    I showed up on a Thursday, October 9th just before 8:30 PM after the family was at a local football game for dinner. However, when I asked for milkshakes I was told that it wasn't available because "they already cleaned the machine". They are open until 11 PM and milkshakes aren't available, that's substandard, so I guess I'm going to Dairy Queen instead.

    Bought two cherry limeade’s and they were pure sour juice as if they were playing a prank on us. Had to throw them away without drinking them. Horrible experience

    I give this sonic a one star today because I went for some chicken bites with the 4.99 coupon I had, they served me some hard and dried out chicken bites(couldn't even finish them)...its like those last few pieces that are sitting there under the heating lamp they have there in the kitchen...they were disgusting. I love gookg.to Sonic, been going for years so yeah I am highly disappointed because I was very hungry and as a Castroville resident that's the only Sonic in town. So I dont know if it was the employees that's running this shift that needs improvement,but definitely the quality of the food does. 👎 There was alot of young looking people working there like college or high school kids, so they're JUST trying to get a paycheck, but dang they can do better. 🙄
