Sonic Drive In

Drinks & Ice cream are good and food is decent. Used to come here all the time but the last several times we’ve gone it seems like we’re waiting 10+ mins for our food every time… To top it all off this last time, I waited that long only to have burned hot dogs and the ice cream, which I was warned wasn’t as thick as usual because of the machine, was soupy. I’ve actually had soup that thicker… Was really excited when it first came to town and used to frequent it all the time and now it’s just disappointing.

Just moved to the area and tried Sonic twice. Super slow lines, Machine broken cash only. Finally received order, drove home and it was totally all wrong! Too much trouble to go back.

4 stars since the burger was not great. The onion rings were good, and had the triple chocolate brownie shake which is delicious!

We ordered our food at 8:20 pm through a speaker that the employee acknowledged was broken and he couldn’t hear us. He repeated our order and gave us our total. We waited until 8:55 and pressed the order button again to ask what the hold up was, and the guy said they didn’t have our order in. He again, tried to take our order through the broken speaker, he couldn’t hear us again so he came out to hand write our order on paper at 9:10pm. By far the worst «fast food» experience I’ve had. Never have I waited so long for fast food. We would have left long ago had we not driven all the way to wilsonville from SE portland for this food.

They get one star because no free refills. I have now spent my last dollar at sonic. I will eat else where.

Oh so bad but oh so good! Hello Cherry Limeade!!! Car side drive-​in or out door seating.

I only usually go to Sonics for their cherry limade. It is the best thing in the house.
Their food, well its just okay. We ordered popcorn chicken and chicken strip, all very dry. It was hard to eat without dippping sauce.
Overall, foods just alright, but I would come here for their vherry limade! Its a 5 star quality drink!!!

Was shopping at Fry’s and thought, hey, there’s a Sonic down the street, I haven’t been to one in a long time since there’s not one near me. so I pulled in around 830pm and ordered 2 burgers and some tots. Too bad the burger was luke warm at best and the cheese was still cold. No excuse for cold patties. there were 4 cars on the lot, why are you serving cold patties? Tells me that it wasn’t cooked fresh and the patty was either sitting on the side or was sitting cuz the tots weren’t done. Either way, both a fail and I’ll never go again, I’d rather spend my $$ at 5 guys.

Not that great. Poor service and lack luster fries :-(

I like the food but wish they had salads. I love the flavored drinks so many to chose from. Nice employees. The drive up is a little hard to get through sometimes.
Overall I like it here.

WHERE ARE ALL THE SONICS! UGH! I am from Texas and Sonic is a staple back home. In every small town and its usually the place to be if you are a teen in a small town. You have drive up stations and you push the button to order. They have a drive through too for those getting something quick. Cheap drinks during their happy hour and worth going outside of that due to so many options and great food! Going to Sonic reminds me of my childhood when we got the brown bag specials and foot long chili dogs. EVERYTHING IS GOOD AT SONIC! I drive just to get a blue ocean water or sweet tea with lemon. MUST TRY IF YOU HAVENT!

Jeremy and Amy are doing a outstanding job at being leaders at this sonic! Zain was fantastic! He was very helpful. This sonic reminds me of home back in Arkansas. That is why I come here! Keep up the great work everyone!

The Chicago Dog is just like being back in Chi-​Town. And I love the unique delivery system, though I always seem to drop something in the car when I’m eating in it.

I have been to several Sonic Drive-In’s now and like I expected from a national chain the food is the same at all of them. To me Sonic food is very bland. But they always cook it hot and fresh and the help is always pretty good.

I’m still not impressed with the food. My husband and son like the hot dogs, but I’ve given up on ordering and trying food items here. The dollar menu at any number of fast food places are better. The tater tots are at least okay.
The drinks are good. I like some of the slushies, as well as the shakes, though I mostly order the slushies since then I don’t need a dairy pill. I love the fact that I can add flavors to drinks, so if I do get a shake I can get chocolate-​caramel or whatever. The additional charge is minimal.
The location is hideous. Getting out of the parking lot was bad enough before Fred Meyer’s went in and is worse now, since the closest driveway out to the street only lets you turn right… when the main road, freeway access, etc., is to the left. You want to instead go away from that road and out the other driveway in the complex, which leads to the main road, but if you were in the drive-​through that involves a 360 degree right turn… done mere feet from the road where people who are coming IN will make a right turn in. Hopefully their brakes are good.

Tater Tots — an extensive list of beverages (sodas, slushies, shakes, cream slushies, smoothies, coffees, teas, limeaid, floats,) — your standard burgers, not-​so-​standard burgers, hotdogs, chicken, breakfast «stuff»…
You have to be pretty finicky to not find something you like if you like anything at other fast food joints (though I don’t remember any mexican choices beyond a breakfast burrito).
I am not thrilled about «car side service» and wish they had an inside dining room — though I’ve eaten at the tables outside on nice days and it was fine.
The drive through experience was fine for us — I didn’t feel like the people taking our order or money were unpleasant.
Service was fast, the food was freshly prepared.
And they have half-​priced drinks from 2−4pm… so if you’re in the ‘hood, it’s a great time to get something to drink.

Well, I wonder if I’m defeating my work out at the local Ballys by stopping here on the way home. :)
My favorite thing here is the diet lime aid. And I’m a sucker for the 2p to 4p span of time know as their happy hour.
The food is actually tasty for fast food. Today after our work out (I know and I wonder why the scale doesn’t go down) I had a chicken sandwich with whole wheat bun (love it) and fries along with the lime aidl.
Very tasty. One of my favorite things is the fry sauce. We all really know it is just mayo and ketchup mixed together but nonetheless, I love it.
I really like the trash bins right by the exit so you can toss all your food trash on the drive out.
I’ll be back.

The screenplay I wrote in the creative writing class I had to take at PCC was supposed to have involved a trip to Sonic when the nearest one was in Idaho. The characters, analogs of my friends and I of course, would have a crazy adventure involving petty theft, public urination, enough substance abuse to give Jack Valenti a stroke and a car it takes several weeks to find once parked. Alas, I couldn’t fit it in.
My trip to Sonic involved nothing more than a long bus ride and a lot of walking around nearly identical buildings. A let down? Maybe, but ordering from a drive thru board whilst standing was pretty awesome.
The fries were underwhelming (no salt AT ALL) but the burger was pretty good. And they served it to me at 9:45am. Sweet! I finished the meal kinda wishing I’d ordered a second burger, but I didn’t eat against until 7:45pm, and that was pre-​loading for booze rather than hunger. And I walked A WHOLE LOT today. Good deal. Buy some freaking salt.

If you read my review of the Sonic in Vancouver, where I live, you remember that I was not a Sonic fan beforehand, I kind of loathed the chain. It goes back to a late night in Deming, New Mexico, in 1989, but I digress; this new incarnation of Sonic caught me by surprise and my opinion was changed.
This afternoon a trip to Wilsonville was in order for a Costco run. Upon exiting Costco the line for cheap eats looked like New Years Eve at Disneyland to get on Space Mountain (everyone should spend one New Years Eve at Disneyland, it’s wicked). My co-​worker and I opted for something else and headed south to the Sonic.
Formerly a big dirt lot for years and years someone planted a little Sonic seed and it grew into this sprawling hub of activity. We decided to eat there outdoors as it was perfect weather, not much wind and a little overcast. We walked up to the big menus, made decisions and pressed the button to place our orders. Quicker than you would think food came out a side door on a nice little tray just for us. Teenage boy took our debit cards and disappeared for a while, but returned dutifully. A quick check of on-​line banking shows he did nothing untoward with our cards.
There it sat in front of us, a lunch for the ages with Tots instead of fries and lots of fry sauce we dug into our burger and chicken wrap. You would think with such a large array of items on the menu that things would taste a little more mundane than they do, but somehow the do not. It was a nice satisfying meal at a fair and reasonable price. Good food, more drink options than Carter has little liver pills and tots done right. Hard to beat.

Supersonic is a word when people start to listen
Especially big eared people, they pay close attention
You might not believe it, you might not even buy it
But when it comes to our lady, you might even try it
(Beatbox)
Supersonic
You see, the ‘S’ is super and the «U’ is for unique
The ‘P’ is for perfection and you know that we are freaks
The ‘E’ is for exotic and the ‘R’ is for raps
So tell those nosy people just to stay the hell back
Supersonic
What can I say? Kinda ‘unique’ to have a drive-​in, esp. in Wilsonville. I’m a ‘freak’ for their strawberry limeaid. The grilled chicken w’rap’ was OK and people should not be all ‘nosy’ when I’m placing my order over the loudspeaker.
Now I really don’t recommend you eat here, so stick to the limeaid. When the afternoon doldrums hit, instead of making a coffee run, we might come here for Happy Hour. Drinks are ½ price from 2 — 4p daily. They even have coffee drinks with a ‘sonic boom’ (shot of espresso).
Boom-​chika-​wa-​wa.
