Sonic Drive-In

COUNT YOUR CHANGE!!! These carhops do not have change making skills.
Been here 4 times and my change has been wrong all 4 times. If your bill is for example $ 12, I imagine all they can do is give you change for a $ 20. Because if you do something like give them $ 22 to get a $ 10 back, it blows their minds. And all 4 times they didn’t figure it out, they just gave me a wad of cash and hoped that I’d drive away. Short 3 times. Over by $ 10 once. I weep for our country.

This Sonic has become the local teenage hangout. The crowds of teenagers fill the place to capacity, and run the show with complete impunity. I irritated one group by pulling into an empty but «saved» space (like saving a seat for someone by putting belongings on it), and they actually climbed on top of my car. They pulled a truck up behind me to block me in so I couldn’t leave. I was so threatened I call 911. Twice. When the cops strolled up they told me it was best if I just took my food and left because there was nothing they could do if the kids were being «turds.» Apparently, Sonic chooses to do nothing either. Letting teens hang out is one thing, allowing them to run the place is another. Take my word for it, steer clear of thus place; unless you are a teenager. I, for one, will not be back. Ever.

This sonic i usually go to but… they made a mistake on my order. I ordered a burger (for the 2 for $ 10) and i asked for mayo and no tomato, so they messed up and gave me tomato and mustard… that isnt even the worst part! THEY ASKED FOR THE OLD BURGER BACK! isnt that unsanitary? Also, its there fault so technically no matter what i should of kept the burger for the inconvenience… right? Idk this pissed me off.

Seriously disgusted with this place. I remember when sonic had the appeal of In and Out, you wanted to go, and if there wasn’t one in your city you would drive hours to go there…
Now — - HELL NO!!! I go back occasionally only to be horribly disappointed; at least they are constant about that.
Most recently I went at about 930 on a Wednesday, only like 3 people there ordering so should be quick and painless…(famous last words right)
Ordered a Brownie Cookie Dough Master Blast, got to the window to pay, waited, waited, waited, waited, waited, waited, waited, nearly 5 minutes later a little brunette comes to the window simply to get my payment. Forget saying hello, sorry about the wait, basically any service skills in the least (first problem with today’s younger generation who are handed everything and still have an attitude and complain about it)
She was more interested in drinking her own drink. She handed me back some change… Don’t bother counting it back to me– I’ll do your job for you there little girl.
Waited, waited, waited, waited, waited, waited, waited– start to see the trend of this evenings event???
Finally see her and another little attitude girl «working» on my order– it’s now been nearly 10 minutes by the way… Or so that people like those dumb little girls can understand: BTW.
Finally brings me my order and says — here you go… That’s it– not a sorry about the wait, not a have a nice evening, nothing– just a here you go, slam the window– feel sorry for her parents, blame the parents too.
Drive away and immediately know this is going to be bad–
Dig into my when I get home, had to wait since the dumb little girl apparently thinks I can use a straw as a spoon– must have been my fault because I wasn’t there to tell her I need a spoon for this type of ice cream,
Now– remember what I ordered– brownie, cookie dough, apparently I ordered a vanilla blast with maybe 3 small pieces of cookie dough apparently substitute the brownie for air…
So yeah– best advice, stay away until they realize how to hire people that have a brain.

Sonic in New Mexico or very common. In California or really hard to find. So I was very excited going on their drive thru. I order the cheese burger combo and they actually have really good prices. I didn’t have time to sit in the car so I took in home. I didn’t know they put onions on their burgers so that was my only complain. The onion rings were good too. Usually when I go a fast food restaurant some places make my stomach bloated. But eating here at Sonic I was find. Nexr time I go I want to try there breakfast menu.

I enjoy sonic. Whether it’s sitting at a stall or driving thru sonic has something for everyone. No it’s not healthy and they offer very few healthy choices. But for a treat sonic is a good choice lots of fried foods and ice cream treats. Enjoy!

As another said, just can’t beat a half priced shake (after 8pm!). Not a fan of fast food, but I’m always a fan of good service, which is what you’ll find at this NE location. I had an issue with the computer not properly calculating the ½ price discount. the young man helping me was very quick to rectify the mistake, was super friendly & apologetic about it, made a fan out of me, I’ll go back to this location anytime.

Great bacon cheeseburger and cherry limeade.

Never go wrong with a half priced milk shake. They are probably one of the best milk shakes in town.

You’ll get a typical Sonic experience at this store. If you’re not familiar with Sonic it’s definitely worth a try … especially their large selection of soft drinks. Happy hour (2 – 5 pm daily) will get you ½ off on these drinks.

As it goes, Sonic is almost as commonplace as Starbucks, especially in Albuquerque. I had never been to a Sonic Drive-​In prior to moving to Albuquerque but find myself drawn to them whenever I’m home and whenever I come across another in other places.
Typical fast-​food is served up in your car (unless, like me, you can recall a time when you were sans car and in high school and actually walked up to an ordering box and ate on the lone picnic table in front), which is nice because you don’t have idle in line for the drive-​thru. So I may still be lazy and fat but at least I’m saving some exhaust for later.
Hamburgers, thick-​sliced toast sandwiches, burritos, and tater tots are the food fare. What I get most excited about are the drinks. Ocean Water? Cherry limeade? Diet coke with strawberry? You name it, they’ll add the syrup for you. There’s also a myriad of ice cream-​based desserts, of which I’m most delighted by the chocolate malt.
This particular Sonic location is the THE place to be seen in the Heights if you have any inclination towards «pimping» you car. Right off Montgomery, the popular cruise strip, you’ll see a myriad of car modifications if you happen to visit at night on a weekend. Which, I suppose, is an upgrade from the Taco Cabana.
