Went to this location on 11/11/2025, for lunch. Woke up some time after midnight with diarrhea, stomach cramps and nausea. I thought it might have been the flu. I was sick for two days. I also felt very weak. The only place I went that day was Sonic. Today I heard that this Sonic has been shut down for failing a health inspection. To be shut down, and not just told to fix an issue, it’s SHUT DOWN! Now I know how, what and why I got sick.

Revised:
It’s slow. Before I revised the review was about slowness, but I figured I could at least reword it, it’s fast food after all, and they probably don’t get paid very much, so could probably cut a little bit of slack as far as that goes.

Feb 29th, was going to stop and buy something. No where to park. Drive thru full. So busy, no car hops walking around. Hire more people! No one pulling out and leaving. Obviously a long wait time.

Feb 16th. Im the only one in the drive thru. I ordered one item. 1. 10 minutes later, I’m still waiting. While watching two employees talk back and forth while pointing at me, saying, “What’s she waiting for?”

Oct 3rd. A cup of ice for me. A cheeseburger for the stall next to me ordered after I did. He GOT HIS BURGER BEFORE I GOT MY ONE CUP OF ICE. THIS IS RIDICULOUS!!!

May 8th: 10 minutes for a cup of ice.
Don’t come here on your lunch…that’s for sure. If I have to watch someone rearrange receipts and push buttons on the screen for a few minutes…for a cup of ice….that’s not okay. Which made me late back to work.

The grocery store has ice. That’s where I’ll go from now on.

An idea! Put orange cones where there are dead screens? Or just have people pulling in and out because a dead screen is so helpful!

ALSO WHEN ORDERING ANYTHING THAT SAYS SAUCE INCLUDED ASK!! YOU DONT GET SAUCE. YOU GET HOME TO DRY MOZZ STICKS. ITS FRIGGIN LOVELY.

Feb 2023…5 minutes for 1 cup of ice. Fast it is not.

Just ordered a pop. Paid on the mobile app. Stood there for TEN minutes while other people are pulling up and placing orders for food. They got their double cheeseburgers before I got my ONE pop. I asked when I would get it and I get attitude about how they are busy. And they only have so many people. WELL do finish your customers in order and they wouldn’t be pissed. I will not go back here. 30 minute lunch with half spent waiting on ONE friggin pop. It tastes watered down, I said light ice. It’s half ice. Mcdonalds has dollar pops all day. No app needed. It tastes way better.

March 2022–Make sure to ask for light ice or you won’t get any pop! They have 3 employees. They will be sure to tell you that. Waited 10 minutes. They forgot my order. Said that was because it was still cooking. Then I got cold food. I simply mentioned I was on lunch, and had to get back. Only to be yelled at. I simply said next time I will go thru the drive thru to be told I was being inconsiderate. Suuuuure.

2nd picture, I ordered a large Dr pepper, light ice. There was a huge mass of ice in a ball. Couldn’t use a straw. So pop does get watered down and tasteless when this much ice is in a cup!

Unable to get Large Blasts, they only serve medium as their largest size. Cups were not filled too the top.
Ordered large , but was told when paying that they were not available and couldn’t answer why.

Original review- Food was good. Service was good. They fixed the potholes in the drive…yea!!

What is this BLT toaster? Half a piece of bacon, 1 thin slice of tomato, very little lettuce and hard bread come on sonic do better.

EVERY SINGLE TIME I go to this store there’s an issue of some kind. Forgetting food, awful attitude from car hop, CHARGING me flavoring on a FREE drink coupon I received from the manager due to issues I ALWAYS have. We are avid sonic lovers.. I try to be understanding because I used to work at a different location and I really do love getting quick drinks and snacks there but I’m about fed up all together. Poor management and communication as a whole. Last time I had an issue I was going to let it go but it was my first meal after having a newborn and they forgot my main food item. I call back weeks later stating I never got anything in the mail and they questioned it so much it was more hassle to get a $9 side I PAID FOR and NEVER GOT, than it was to explain the situation. Just disappointed and tired of spending my money here!

Ordered through Spring delivery. The only box I checked for the condiments was for ketchup. There’s mayo on my burger. Who puts mayo on a burger when it’s not asked for?????? Definitely disappointed and grossed out.

After writing this review, I ate the tots. With fries. ‍♀️
