Sonic

I love to go to Sonic and get there Philly and there onion rings. They also have a great variety of drink options you can’t get anywhere else.

I like Sonics food, but the speed and service here is not good. Always a long wait for food and on my most recent visit most of the food was missing from my bag. Always leave there stressed out.

I hope this review finds somebody planning to go to Sonic and successfully sways them away. I’m pressing the zero stars as hard as possible, but it won’t let me.
How this place messes up hot dogs and tater tots is beyond me. I’m not sure how the food is so abysmal since everything seems to be microwaved 2 weeks prior to you ordering it.
You can get better hot dogs at a gas station. Craving a milkshake? Go to Steak n Shake. Want greasy, comfort food? Try Happy Moose.
You would have better luck finding better food at the Big Boy restaurant that has been closed for years.
Unless you lost a bet or some other unfortunate turn of events that force you to come here against your will, stay far, FAR away.

A SATURDAY AFTERNOON, THE SERVICE IS TERRIBLE! WE DIDNT EVEN ORDER! We sat there for 25 minutes and didn’t even get acknowledged. 12 cars in the parkinging lot and no one was getting service! Horrible!

Takes a while to get your food. Not a big fan of the food once it gets there either. Feels and tastes too processed and the buns taste a bit too sweet. I’d rather go to a McDonalds or Wendy’s but luckily for this location they are a bit farther.

The service was terrible. After placing order it was 20 min before we were brought our meal. 2 coney dogs and a side of tots a cherry slushy and a cherry limeade. 20 minutes! When they delivered to the window the staff had no idea if it was our food. They apologized for the long wait and gave us expired coupons. They left us without straws or napkins and the food was cold. After pressing the service button to ask for napkins and straws we were asked to hold another 15 minutes. We pulled around and I asked the staff for straws and napkins and I asked them if it was a common thing to offer expired coupons to their patrons and the kid laughed. We were very disappointed an don’t think we will ever go back. They are receiving one star because i have to rate them something for this to post

Ok, unless you have never been to a Sonic you know the drill. Pull up, order and eat in your car. Classic American drive in goodness! Sonic has been one of my favorites since I was a kid back in Louisiana. When I moved to Ohio and the Sonics became few and far between I began to appreciate them a lot more!
My personal favorite is the footlong chili cheese coney and tots! But sometimes I must admit I have to swap tots for Onion Rings. They have large onion rings that are always battered nicely and not falling apart. I also love their chicken strips with gravy for dipping and their toaster sandwiches. Ok so really there is not much that I do not like ;-)
Their happy hour drink specials are a great treat for any age especially on a hot day! I have to admit a half price slush is a nice treat! And you can have just about any flavor you can imagine… Same with their shakes!

Terrible service. Hit the button 5 times and finally had to go in and ask what was going on. The girl at the window looked at us and asked what i wanted. I replied «i have been hitting the button for the past 15 min with no response». Her response «there is only myself and the cook here so we will get to you when we get to you». Instead of taking 1 drive thru 1 pull up they took only the drive through! I have filed a complaint with Sonic directly, hopefully they go in and audit. Terrible service, under staffed, below avg food and a run down building. Looks like below franchise standards.

Arrived Monday night 9:30, 2 cars in lot, we waited 10 mins at drive thru without a hello or be with you in a minute. Girl finally took our order and returned 26 min later with our food. 3 hotdogs 2 drinks. Brings new heights to FAST FOOD. AVOIDthis place at all costs.

I worked at a Sonic Drive-​In in San Antonio, Texas, and when I moved up north it was one of the things I missed the most. When I found the Sonic in Streetsboro, I was excited. I have been there about 6 times now, and am utterly disappointed with the place.
First of all, the service is terrible. The people working there are generally rude and it’s obvious customer service is not a priority. They’ve got my order wrong every time I’ve been there, and the last couple times I haven’t said anything because when I point out the errors they make it clear that they are annoyed and couldn’t care less. It also seems that none of the employees there are familiar with the menu. Last time I checked, when you work at any restaurant, you’re supposed to know the menu.
Second, the food is awful. It rarely tastes fresh. Don’t bother ordering popcorn chicken, you’ll be presented with a little box of rock hard breading with some trace amounts of dry chickeny substance in the middle. The burgers are slapped together with no regard to quality. And don’t bother ordering a custom drink, even though that is one of the main selling points of any Sonic in the country. If you try to order a «unique» drink like, say, a chocolate banana cream pie malt, you won’t get what you asked for. Also, 50% of the time I’ve been there the person taking my order doesn’t know the difference between a malt and a milkshake. How can you work at Sonic and not know the difference between the two?
As a former employee from a Sonic in the South, I am embarrassed for these kids. Maybe Ohio wasn’t ready for Sonic, as the service at this location demonstrates sheer incompetence.

Wow, when this store first opened it was great — hot, delicious food and quick –n– friendly service. Now it appears that someone has figured out that you can make all the food needed for the entire business day at 11am and then keep it under the warming lamp until needed. The staff is still really nice, but the food takes a staggering 5 minutes to bring out and then you’re irritated that it’s lukewarm at best and soggy and/​or dried out. I can only blame management for the decline. Hey management, drive past the boarded up Arby’s a mile to the east and check out your future.

I forgot how much I like sonic. I got the burger and my mum got the cheese steak sandwich. Her sandwich was really good. I love the tots now yum! We also got a salted carmel shake and a fresh banana shake and they were amazing… :)

I had the New York hot dog. It was messy and hard to eat … but still tasted very good. Seems like every time I visit this place the wind is blowing 40 MPH. Nice to be able to sit out doors though for a quick lunch.

This just wasn’t good food. I ordered a single cheeseburger with just ketchup and cheese. They brought out a burger loaded with toppings. They replaced it quickly, but the bun was dry and crumbly, and the burger just didn’t taste very good at all. Even the tots were not great. I might choose them above McDonald’s (I can’t stand the smell or taste of their food), but if there was ANYTHING else available, I’d never eat Sonic again. It’s edible — but why do that to yourself if there are other choices out there?

Now that the hype is over about Sonic finally making it up to the frozen north, you can honesty compare it to other similar dining establishments. The curbside service is unique, but there are some local establishments that do it better. The menu is basic. The burgers are OK, nothing special. Actually, their hot dogs, especially their Chicago dogs are quite good. Having tater tots instead of fries is a pleasant alternative. Drinks are extensive, but generally just okay. Most of their slushies are just too sweet. Overall, it is a relatively unique experience, but food and drink quality is nothing special.

chili cheese fries. cheap cheap! chili dogs were too salty but their limeade was spot on even in the cold snowy weather. Services, like most fast food places in Ohio, were über slow. The staff did apologize for the wait and ask us if we need anything else when they delivered our food but seriously painfully slow. I don’t think i’d ever crave Sonic but if I wanted some solid cheap chili fries this is where i’d be.

The only thing I like about Sonic is their drinks.
I’m not a fan of drive up eateries like Sonic, A&W, and Swensons. Sonic is not different. Greasy, messy food at a large cost that you could get better somewhere else. They have prompt service, easy payment at the location so no one takes your card, and they are friendly. Food tastes decent enough, but small servings for the cost. I was unhappy with kids selection choices, but my 2 boys found the chicken kids meals tasty enough. You have privacy since you eat in your car and the noise level is up to you, but they don’t give you enough napkins or wet wipes for their messy food. They are willing to cook to order though and do substitutions and additions so that is a plus.

It was my first experience at Sonic. It was very, very disappointing on a car ride back from a Memorial Day picnic. My Sonic experience was different, first time with a carhop and fast food delivery.
The carhop was friendly and quick with the order and even gave us extra napkins. Each of the parking spaces were clean and well maintained. Not everyone in the car could see the menu though– especially the people in the back seat.
The food; however, was a different story. I ordered #1 and a #3: Sonic burger combo with fries and a Coney Footlong with onions and onion rings. The Sonic burger was luke warm with a dried out McDonald’s hamburger patty– nothing good. The fries were soggy and cold as well.
The Coney Footlong was a cold, overly salted, bland hot dog. It’s taste is similar to a low fat, expired Oscar Mayer wiener dog. Adding the onions, cheese sauce and chili did not help it at all. I would prefer a Nathan’s hot dog or a Hebrew National Hot Dog plain over another one of the Coney Dogs. The onion rings weren’t bad– they use real Spanish onions in the onion rings. The rings were somewhat sweet though and need a little salt. The best part of the meal were the onion rings. One surprising aspect of the meal was the fact that they have Coke Zero– most other fast food places don’t.
I will not be paying a visit to Sonic again, unless forced there.

I am a big fan of Sonic compared to other fast food restaurants. I’ve been here for both breakfast and lunch. Really enjoy the breakfast burrito, the tots are tasty while properly salted, the burgers are up to par, but the texas toast sandwich I had more recently was awesome. I only wish that there were more options on the east side of cleveland.

It’s good for fast food. The fries can be soggy and soft, i usually go with the tater tots. They are quick. The limeades are always refreshing.
