Always “closed” anytime you go through & they won’t even answer you. They’ll just ignore you. I came through at 9 pm on 8/22 and one of the car hops was taking out an order. Two people in the drive through before me had been served and waiting. I asked if they was open and she said no ?? But there was two cars in the drive through and several in the stalls. Then today at 6 pm 8/23. We had to knock on the front door to even get an employee to respond. and all they said was “aww my bad”. Terrible. Service.

Sat on the patio. It was nice. Got my food, and my onion rings smelled and tasted like cake. It was absolutely disgusting. Onion flavored cake is not a thing that ever needed to happen.

Terrible service. This is the 2nd time that I have went there in 3 months. First time I waited 45 minutes for my food. This time, I ordered my food, 3 cars in front of me. Waited 15 minutes and left. Horrible terrible service. I will not attempt to go there again.

The Shake was the only part of my order that was good.. I ordered the honey barbecue sauced boneless Wings there was hardly any sauce on them.. I also ordered the five piece chicken tender meal that came with tater tots and onion rings and Texas toast and the chicken was considerably small portions and definitely overcooked and dry the tater tots and Texas toast were cold and it only came with one onion ring and the drink that came with was watered down.. I asked for condiments and I did not receive any.. I have not been to a Sonic in years and I doubt that I will be returning if this is the service that is expected to be received.. I’m very disappointed.. I only gave it 2 Stars because of the shake
