This was a better experience this time around. Food was hot and made as requested. Previous 2 experiences were not good. On one occasion after pulling up to the kiosk on the drive through side of the restaurant we had to press the red button for service twice. We waited between 10 and 15 minutes after pressing the button that time and I watched as the message We will be with you shortly left the screen and the button shut off. During the time that I waited with the please wait message and the red light of the button on, I watched as several cars came and went out of the drive through. The 2nd of the past two experiences left us having to ask for straws to be brought out, chicken sandwiches that were cold and very little BBQ sauce on the sandwiches after we asked for it. There was so little sauce that you could not even taste it and it was like a piece of cold chicken on a hamburger bun. Hopefully the service will continue to improve to pre joke...

This place is a nut house on the weekends with all of the kids go there tearing through the parking lot in their muscle cars...I am happy, but surprised that none of the car hops have gotten hit by a car in that parking lot. The food is pretty good. The desserts and shakes are yummy. You need to try their pickleos...they are delicious fried pickles. Let me warn you though, be very careful and let them sit for about 5-10 minutes so they can cool off a bit. They are made to order, they are not cooked in batches and sitting under heat lights. These this are fresh out of boiling oil. The first time that we ever ordered them, I picked one out of the bag, bit into it and burned the inside of my mouth with scalding hot pickle juice. Wasn't really able to taste anything more for that night and the next day, but we went back for more another time, let them cool off some, got to taste them...and they were...

Bad service. Ordered a medium limeade and when at the window i asked if i could change it to a large as i had made the mistake of ordering a medium, i even offered to buy an extra one but was told that they are not allowed to change the order at the window and told that i dont need a large because the medium is plenty. When calling management of the building they did not care nor heard back. Contacted corporate but they didnt care either thus straying me away from Sonic over all as they didnt even want me to spend more money at their establishment, this is that i used to be addicted to sonic visiting once a week for a 6 month period, never to return. Such a shame because i do love their limeades and onion rings but one should never have to deal with team members having an attitude towards you because you want to order something as simple as a drink. Never will ever recommend this...

Well this was a God - Awful experience. While out and about I decided to try Sonic for the very first time. I didn't get the chance. I Googled a location close by and went there. I pulled into a parking spot and attempted to place an order. I was told that it is "drive through only" and took one look at the line and left. I proceeded to check out other Sonic's on line and found out I would have to drive over 30 miles to get to a location that actually has operational "drive in/dine in" service. I was quite disappointed ☹️ and decided to visit Culver's instead. They really need to update all of those commercials that they constantly play on TV to explain that you can not eat AT a Sonic locally. Rick Zorn

So I ordered a #3 combo meal large fries and large Dr. pepper, as well as a large sonic blast Oreo add Reese’s. I got my food but not the Dr. pepper when I asked for it she said it would be $1.22 I was confused as to why? I asked her why was I charged for it in the meal but I have to pay again for it? She said that it was taken off. When I questioned her she said “you paid full price for the combo meal and the blast was added to the combo meal instead of the Dr. pepper I asked why was I charged for the Blast then? And she said I was charged full price for both because it wasn’t happy hour?!? What?? I don’t see why I had to pay for my Dr. pepper when it’s included in the combo meal price.

First time in a very long time since I’ve been to a Sonic, I was very excited to try it out. This location seems to be situated in a good area with convenient access. Plenty of drive-in spots to order and eat. Drive thru was easy enough although there was a communications issue when ordering, it seemed like we were cutting out. Certain items weren’t available, and when we agreed to alternative suggestions that we paid for we got home and realized we didn’t get them. The burgers themselves were extremely good though, that part wasn’t disappointing at all. Just wish we had gotten everything we had ordered.
