Sonic

I have no idea why this location can’t get their stuff together. It’s $ 1.00 hot dog day. Their website says just ask. The girl isn’t really listening when we tell her our order so we repeat it. Our bill was over $ 20.00! We mention it’s $ 1.00 hot dog day and she asks us if we got an email invitation? We say «No. It says all over facebook and on the webpage to just mention it.» So she says she’ll take care of it. Then it’s a 10 fricken minute wait with only one other car infront of us for hot dogs? I remember why we haven’t been here an really long time. We shop at Meijer’s every week but won’t be back. The food was just meh.

I went here and what I received was not what I ordered. When an employee came out, they were a little belligerent and the issue was not resolved. Unpleasant experience.

On service alone I want to give Robyn (general manager) five stars for how she handled our issue today. I used the Sonic app and loaded $ 25 on my gift card. The app lists this location as one that does mobile pay. Unfortunately it was not. Instead of making a fuss, she offered to not charge us for the food without any hesitation. She even helped us figure out which stores may use mobile pay. Thank you, Robyn! The store unfortunately gets 2 down because the food was cold, stale buns, and one of the drinks was smaller than what I ordered. Can’t complain when it’s free… so…yeah.

Went here for lunch after a doctor’s appointment. The kids all agreed on the same place, so we stopped in for a bite before hitting the road for a long weekend. Our server, Robin, was awesome! She was so kind and efficient. What a great experience!

I“m not sure if every sonics are like this. but their menu items taste quite unusual. ordered a bacon cheeseburger toaster. that was «Ice cold» to the touch and had their chili cheese tots. i’m pretty sure the chili has gone bad. because i’ve never seen black chili before. please find the solution to the problem. thank you.

Went here two days in a row. Their drink and dessert menu is amazing! I don’t eat meat so I cannot speak about their burgers. However, their ched r’ peppers and mozzarella sticks are oh so yummy! Their service wasn’t bad, waited about 4 mins. Also had the strawberry cheesecake shake and molten cake (delish!). Only thing lacking is that it would have been nice if they came out on roller skates (defeats the purpose of what they’re know for).

Slower service than what I’m used to and some broken credit card readers that aren’t fixed for months. Other than that, it’s delicious drive in foods.
Cherry limeade forever.

First time coming here and definitely the last. I drive up and nobody greeted I said hello a few times, after a couple minutes a girl came on and finally took my order, she gave me the total and told me to drive around.
I do as instructed and I see two young girls just chatting away. One of the girls eventually glanced at me and said something to the other one and they both laughed. The other girl opened the window and extended her hand out for payment. She didn’t utter a freakin word! She just stared! I gave her my money and the two little bit*#es continue giggling and chatting away! Unbelievable!!! I get my change and my drink and she simply said, «here.» I wanted to tell them both off on how rude and stupid they were behaving but was still waiting on my food!
I finally get my food from the giggly girl that first «noticed» me. And she said thanks for stopping at sonic or some sh#t. I drive off get back to work (3 minutes away TOPS) My fries were actually pretty good but the burger?! It was cold and sloppy, no taste, I took solace in my fries until I saw a friggin HAIR!!! NEVER AGAIN!!! Those two girls should’ve been taught how to give customer service. They were disgustingly rude and the food was garbage!

A throwback to the 1950s drive-​in version of fast food, with a wider choice of unhealthy fried foods than you would have had back then. Here in the land of «Happy Days,» it seems like it should be a requirement to stop in a place like this at least once in a while. Their Chicago style hot dogs are almost Chicago hot dogs, and their ice cream desserts are almost as good as any of the independent Milwaukee frozen custard stand sundaes. What I like about this place is this place is that they are nice to my college students, who are admittedly not necessarily the best of customers. A student club might park themselves at one of the outdoor picnic tables for a couple of hours, only some of them will eat, but all will order cups of water. Still, they’ve always been treated well, so I appreciate the customer service. I also like the tater tots.

After three seperate times of going to Sonic and have them mess up my order, this last time yesterday was the last straw. I order 2 coney dogs and 2 Chicago dogs for my friends and I. We wait 20 minutes. I get 2 plain hot dogs and 2 orders or chili cheese tots with a piece of long brown hair in it… so nasty. Never again will I go here. I wish I could give it less then a star.

Will not be going back. Got the sweet potato tots for $ 3.09 and there were only like 10 in the cup. They also got our order wrong :-(

OHHH SONICCCC. How I have missed you! I love Sonic in general, and am only docking a star off because our roller chica messed up our order and seemed easily confused. But the food was delicious! I SO missed my tater tots! But heads up, their cheese pepper things are disgusting, so don’t bother.

Most of these reviews seem to be from 2011, so I’m guessing they must have improved their service since then.
I am not gonna say this is the best restaurant ever, but it’s a solid burger joint with super friendly service!
Every time we’ve gone their our food is hot and out to us in less than 5 minutes!
I’m a fan of the grilled chicken sandwich with some delish tots on the side!
And the java chillers? Spectacular. Coffee and ice cream blended in harmony will win me over any day.
What I also enjoy about Sonic is they have DDP. For those of you who aren’t in the know, that’s Diet Dr Pepper. Its like my liquid crack (Woodman’s being my solid crack)
If you’re in the area and want a yummy sandwich with awesome tots and some darn good ice cream to go with it, I suggest Sonic!

I was hoping for a better experience at this location since I had pretty bad ones at the Miller Park Way one (and I only went there a handful of times.) When I have been here, the wait time is pretty much outrageous… Even with only one or two other cars there.
I’ve been given a breakfast sandwich that was mostly burnt and inedible. Their cheeseburgers reminded me of the ones I had in school cafeterias. Their fries are okay, a bit salty but not bad. The tots are usually pretty safe as well.
I can definitely see why this location always looks vacant… no one wants to come back.

Please, I beg you, please drive down Howell more to Culver’s than eat here if you want a hamburger. Please.
I’ve been here four times (since third time’s the charm didn’t work, I gave it another shot) and every single time is the same: horrible. It really sucks, too, because the whole concept of it is really, really awesome. They just don’t have the bite to back up their bark.
—
–The tots and fries are cold and mushy.
–The burgers have zero flavor with how much crap they put on there.
–The fish sandwich was cold and flavorless.
–The soda and shakes were cold… like they were supposed to be, so I’ll give them that and only that. Don’t be surprised, though, if your soda is warm because it’s opposite day everyday here.

I went here ONCE for the «grand opening» in West Milwaukee. Yuck! Not impressed at all! Greasy hamburgers, greasy tater tots, grease overload! Barf…

The Sonic’s in Florida are WAY BETTER!
That being said, I believe that the workers/​management do not care about the food coming out or the products for the customers.
Cold, hard burgers, soggy fries and onion rings that are more like dessert than a salty, onion ring.
The only good thing is the Cherry-​Limeades.

Finally went back yesterday and had the Double Cheeseburger, Tots and Chocolate Malt. It was as good as my friends said!

I have heard a lot about Sonic. So my hopes weren’t to high. It is your typical fast food joint, except instead of a drive through they roller skate it out to you. The staff was very nice. The menu was huge, and they also offered breakfast. Their prices were typical for fast food. The one thing I did enjoy was they have a great drink menu. Way more than you typical soda and water.

I finally tried Sonic for the first time and enjoyed it. I like that Sonic’s menu is extensive, as you can get burgers, mozzarella sticks, chicken tenders, slushes, and shakes.
I enjoyed my Bacon cheeseburger on toast. It was a yummy first choice, and I paired it with onion rings that were light and crispy, with a hint of sweetness I’ve never tasted before in onion rings.
I loved the carhop service! And since I came during a blizzard in the middle of winter, I was doubly impressed that my carhop girl braved the snow a second time just to ask how everything was! I can’t wait for summer now, just to sit in my car with the windows open, enjoying Sonic at the carhop!
