What User likes about Sonic Drive-in:
This restaurant is always hot, serving fresh food and ready as soon as I walk in, especially if I pre-order. They often have great deals for my group and I have never had a complaint. Thank you for the great service, Eddy Fry, for running one of the best food spots in the city that consistently meets high standards. View all feedback. What User doesn't like about Sonic Drive-in:
The chili frito in a tortilla was delicious, but unfortunately my grilled cheese was not up to par as the bread was not cooked long enough. I noticed that only three people were working, which may explain why the quality wasn't great. View all feedback.

Sonic has a reputation for flavorful food, but recent experiences highlight significant inconsistencies in service. Patrons report frustratingly long wait times, with some waiting over 30 minutes just to place an order. Complaints about incorrect orders and understaffing are common, suggesting that while the kitchen aims to deliver quality, the service often falters under pressure. However, a few customers commend the friendly staff who work diligently, despite the challenges. Ultimately, Sonic's commitment to food quality is evident, but maintaining efficient service remains a hurdle, prompting a mix of appreciation and frustration among its visitors.

The customer service at this restaurant is extremely poor, especially from the staff member with the blue highlights. They were very rude and unacceptable.

The service at this restaurant was excellent and it's always enjoyable to dine at a 1950s-style fast food establishment. However, the chicken patty in the Texas...
