Sonic Drive-In

Get it together! We pulled into the empty drive thru and ordered. Waited 10 minutes before they asked us to pull up so the several cars behind us that had pulled in could get their food. Then waited another 10 minutes before our food came out, missing a hot dog and a kids cheeseburger we ordered and paid for. There was an extra (incorrect) cheeseburger we didn’t order, and tater tots instead of apples with the kids meals. So we waited another 5 minutes for them to bring the items they forgot. Drove away, started eating when I noticed the pretzel dog was moldy! At this point we’ve wasted 25 minutes for crappy fast food so we go back and talk to the manager and show him the moldy pretzel roll and he asks if we ate the other food! Well yeah, hungry kids sitting for 20 minutes waiting on the rest of our food, what do you think? So the manager says «ok, I’ll give you a refund THIS time.» Like he’s doing US a favor. Unprofessional! First and last time eating at this Sonic!

I ordered a Peanut Butter Cookie shake to go, but didn’t eat it until I got home. I guess I should have tried it before I left the parking lot because it was plain Vanilla. As far as the Vanilla went, it was fine but it wasn’t what I ordered. I only got one item so it shouldn’t have been difficult to figure out.

This was our first time at a sonic. We were looking for something different for lunch so we figured we would give it a try. We wanted to take it home with it so we did drive thru. The service at the window was good she was friendly. We had chicken fingers, chili cheese dog, tots and of course cheesecake bites! The food was ready quickly and we were on our way. My only issue was there was no ketchup or sauces in my bag. I didn’t ask for them but I thought they would be included. Good first visit we will definitely be back.

He said…“What can I say it is Sonic, we drove 20 minutes out of the way to eat here on our trip back from OCMD. Lets see I went with the #2 combo (double cheeseburger) with tater tots, chocolate shake and a pretzel dog to share with my sexy wife. Okay this meal was a little overboard but we intentionally skipped breakfast to eat here. This Sonic was one of the best looking and cleanest restaurants I’ve seen in a while. They even have a bounce house for kids on the side of the road, but I don’t see people flocking to Sonic because of a bounce house. Anyways, the pretzel dog with cheese and bacon, yea I know wtf, stole the show. It wasn’t overboard and just enough of the toppings to make that dog delicious.“
She said…“YUMMM…I am always craving sonic, and unfortunately there isn’t one around where we live. So we like to drive hours out of the way when we find a sonic near by. I always get a cheeseburger, tots and coke and its always good. I have to say though, that pretzel cheese bacon dog was legit! I would go back there just for that. Making me crave one now…”

First time trying Sonic. Probably will be my last time trying Sonic.
I was too busy swatting away flies the entire time I was trying to eat. I tried moving to different tables but they were just everywhere! As for the food — very low quality. My friend ordered a chicken burger but his order looked so different from the picture from the menu board that he thought he had gotten the wrong item. My burger was so soggy that it began to fall apart.
The service was better though. I ordered un-​sweetened ice tea and received the sweetest drink I had ever tasted. I had told them there was a mistake in my order, and they promptly took care of my order and gave me even a bigger cup the second time around.
However, not worth another visit. Sorry.

Personally, I love the Sonic here. The staff are usually friendly (and some are even chipper), and I’ve recently become a fan of their Sweet Potato Tater Tots. The food is fast food, so of course it’s not going to be gourmet, but it’s still good. I just wish they wouldn’t put so much ice in their Ocean Water!

SONNNIIICC!!! Woop Woop
I always remember reminiscing about Sonic on a roadtrip to the beach, only for us to drive past one within 2 – 10 and me scream STOP! SONNNIICC! And then everyone freaking out that we just found a Sonic mins after I started craving one.
Know what I love about Sonic? SWEET STUFF. And lots of it. Slushies, shakes, mixes, sundaes, etc etc.
And then there’s the non-​standard fast food fare like tator tots, hot dogs, ect. And Sonic’s are few & far in-​btwn, so when I see one, I appreciate it.

For some start this review by saying that I’m not a huge fan of fast food. However, from time to when urge strikes I do like to indulge in a good burger or chicken sandwich. This place is good to satisfy that urge, but not so much for service and quality of food. I don’t think I’ve been to this place once and they’ve got my order correct. The food is only so so, but I am a huge fan of the tater tots. Everyone is always polite and courteous however, I always have to wait double the time for them to get my order correct. I believe my last visit here will probably be just that my last.

I LOVE cherry limeaids. However, I have purchased food from Sonic a few times and been VERY disappointed. I expect my fast food to be somewhat fresh, of course it is fast food so I’m not expecting much. The food at sonic is NEVER fresh. It’s usually mushy, as if it was reheated in the microwave.
If you are in need of an afternoon thirst quencher, or a late night ice cream — then this is the place to go.
But the next time I’m on my lunch break and hankering for a cherry limeaid — I’m not going to get one because it’s way too much trouble to have to hit up a second spot to order food. Sorry, Sonic.

For junk food, Sonics is good. For service and reliability… forget it. These folks screwed my order up 3 times. The first time, it was no big deal… people make mistakes. The 2^nd time, it was a little funny. The 3^rd time… well, there are no more excuses. You are a moron. I told you my order 3 times in a row. On the third time, I spoke extra slow. I don’t know why I did… the guy was obviously from here so his English should be fine. Must be his hearing. I don’t know and I don’t care. I got more ice in my drink than drink. I give up. Apparently the people that work here have a future with insurance companies cause there seems to be mis-​communication to the 10^th level. I never like to give mean reviews… but these guys can’t hear so I doubt they can read.

Not my cup of tea. Won’t be going back again.
I don’t understand the drive-​in /​carhop service. I can’t re-​fill my drink, can’t get up to get more condiments, napkins, etc. so if I want anything I have to call someone over and tip them? Again? Don’t get me wrong, I have worked in the service industry for a long time, and I am a very generous tipper, but what exactly am I tipping for? The inconvenience of eating in my car — there’s no table in my car, cold food and the just all around non sensical method to the madness? Fries were cold and burger was below par. I was going to say unremarkable, but it’s worse than that.

Just to note: this Sonic does not have carhop service at the drive-​thru – it’s just a regular drive-​up window. I’d love to give this location more stars, but unfortunately, they screwed up my drink order, and I didn’t notice the error until I was miles away. Grrrrrrr.
I hear that Sonic is coming to AA County – Edgewater, to be exact. Please hurry! I have a hankerin’ for a Route 44 diet cherry limeade with a shot of Powerade!
