    My mom and I went to this Sonic for a quick bite. Little did we know, that we would soon be blessed with FANTASTIC customer service provided to us by a sweet kind soul named, Ethan. Ethan was incredibly generous, friendly, and really boosted the atmosphere of the establishment. Ethan gave us our food very quickly, was very polite, and really made us feel comfortable and valued as customers. Ethan was absolutely amazing, we gave him a good review on our Sonic Survey, but words could not describe the quality customer experience we were given. Ethan really changed our lives, we need more people like Ethan to work in Sonic establishments because workers that prioritize their quality work, really symbolizes the true face of the Sonic franchise. Please give Ethan this message of kind words. WE LOVE YOU ETHAN!!!!!

    Tyler is the best. Literally had me cracking the entire time I was placing my order, which made my experience a thousand times better.

    I felt bad for coming in right before they closed (almost midnight😕), I gave Dallas a $2 bill for bringing me my order, he seemed so excited about it, it made me happy. I love when people are so friendly even when it’s so late😃 The other workers at the other sonic are pretty openly irritated when I come in late (understandably!) no hate to them, but I had to leave a good review here because I really appreciated his good attitude!

    Last week I had an order that was filled wrong. One of the managers called me a few days later to make my order good. I showed up and Tyler was very nice got my order redone and I'm very happy with it. Thank you very much
