I’ve been to this sonic multiple times .. not sure if they got new staff but this was by far the worst experience I’ve had. We were in the drive thru sitting there repeating a 2 meal order to the guy about 7 times . Cool we then get to the window maybe another 10 mins sitting there till we honk & the guy opens the window take our payment … and then 5ish mins later hands us our food . I look it’s 2 blue raspberry slushies when it was one blue & one strawberry.. I would think the amount of times we had to repeat the order it wouldn’t be wrong .. we ask for the correct slushy I get it and it’s completely clear meaning there was no type of syrup or fruit in it ..I ask the kind young man outside with dreads if he could help me and he kindly fixed my slushy .. thank you sir 🙂 ! Other than that the experience we had with the young Hispanic man at the window was absolutely terrible. Food also was not good . As a past sonic employee I was in disbelief.

I haven't been to a Sonic for a long time, so while out running errands, decided to try it out again. The service was excellent. I ordered a #1 smash burger combo, with fries and a cherry limeade. The drink was delicious, the photo is after I drank half of it while driving home. lol. The fries were ok. I got their queso, it was good, but I think they need to offer chips to go with the queso. The main item- the burger. It wasn't what I expected. I opened it after I got home. I got photos after I ate part of it. The burger tasted kind of ok. The photos will tell it all. I feel they need to improve the presentation of that burger. The photo of the box after I removed the burger out of it. Recently I tried their new - pickle tots, amd sad to say they don't taste like pickles. They are just sprinkled with a little dill seasoning and even with that they don't taste like pickles.

Ordered via DoorDash. The pickle “fries” were more like a pickle ball (and I’m not talking the sport) with some batter still not done. The mozzarella sticks weren’t fresh, and the dasher was prompt, so it wasn’t on them. The chili dog was one of the better ones I’ve had from a Sonic, and the sauces were in the bag. The last two things are the only reason why it’s not a one star rating. I don’t want anything in return, just do better Sonic.

(If I could give them a half a star I would) I came to the sonic in buda off IH35 and ordered at stall #17 at 4:30pm. My order was small just 6 corn dogs , med fry, and small order of the ched r peppers. Paid for it and on the screen it said ‘on the way’ but it never came, and then the screen went back to order again at 5pm other cars were ordering and receiving their food before me. By that time I was waiting 30 minutes and I figured it was fine since they were busy. But I was worried my order was given to a different car. I pressed the button and asked how much longer for my food now a different person than the one that took my order answered and made me repeat my order she apologize and entered it in again (I thought) . It was 5:38pm still waiting for my order I would’ve drove off but I had already paid. The car next to me left by now and they ordered 30 corn dogs and then sum, so I pressed the red button again at 5:38pm. Someone answered again a different person and ask if I could hold.. then I heard her voice on the stall next to mine taking their order! Very frustrating especially since I had been waiting since 4:30pm. I told her my order again (now 3 times ordering) and she said someone would bring it out. I then asked for a refund. The whole time I’ve been in the same stall never changed lanes nor my order. She sounded irritated and said someone is bringing it out. I asked for refund and she asked if I have my receipt so they can refund me and I told her I never received a receipt since it comes with the food. I paid through the stall so they should have the amount that I paid a little after 4:30pm. The manager then comes out to talk to me. He said “ you should see how busy it is in there” not even taking the time to apologize or look up my order. He said he couldn’t track it down and kept asking if I had ordered through the app. He asked how much my order was I told him 10.83 he brought the food out and my cash. As I was driving away I looked in my bag and didn’t receive part of my order. They left out 3 corn dogs. I will not be going back to this sonic again bad customer service, order was wrong and it took well over an hour for my food. It’s as if they didn’t believe that I was there for over an HOUR!! Or that they didn’t believe I ordered/paid since they kept asking for a receipt. Wish things were handled differently by the staff and...

UPDATE I have downgraded my review from two stars to one. This Sonic continues to disappoint. I’ve brought my dog with me multiple times so that she can get a wag cup while I get a sweet treat for my husband and myself. Several times it has not been a problem. I ask for one and they bring it out free of charge. This time, I asked for one and the girl said “I’m pretty sure we charge for those.” I said that’s fine but she said she would go ask inside. She comes back out and says that they do charge for them. I ask how much it is and she responds “I didn’t check. I didn’t even know we had them. I’m new” Ok, so how did she know they were supposed to be charged if she didn’t even know they had them. I told her it was fine and that I would do without one because it was blatantly obvious that she didn’t want to make one—a tiny cup of whipped cream. I’m positive that I won’t be back as this little treat for my family and dog were the only reason I came here anyways.

Usually this sonic is pretty good, with decent service and good food. Tonight, the person taking orders was so rude for no reason. He sounded like a teenager blitzed out of his mind. When I told him the order on the screen was incorrect, and tried to correct him several times, he just said “Uhhuh.” I just left at that point. It sucks because this sonic is so close to Sunfield, but if the service continues this way, I...

First stall pressed button and no answer. Seems like it may have possibly not been working. Drive in to 2nd stall and that one has a small not working sign. Ok so third stall is completely blank. Should’ve just left but tried the drive thru. Greeted by person taking our order. Place order for 3 sundaes and a shake. No response from the person. Continue to ask if they can hear us, and no response. One person only had been ahead of us and had just driven off from the window, so stupidly decided to just go to the window and ask there in case the speaker went out. Nope. Greeted by a young girl that seemed nice, but upon explaining that we weren’t sure if they could hear us on the speaker and asking if we could order the sundaes and shake, she says oh our ice cream and shake machines are down. Really? Not the first time I’ve been to this location for ice cream and they say that. But it’ll be the last time I visit them for anything. Went down to Freddie’s and got quick friendly service and everything...
