Sonics French toast is so good and the girl as the cashier was so sweet. But they only give you four fat sticks which makes me kind of sad but at a reasonable price. And I always create my own shake which always tastes amazing. Just long drive thrus. And long waits. Here's an update: Derrell the manager was so kind ! Very considerate and overall professional! He is a diamond in the dirt. Even though the store said they closed at 11pm due to COVID online he still served us after being in line for a while. Thanks Derrell for being such a great person ! He also had some fast workers who brought the food out fast and quick to keep the line moving efficiently! read more

Sonic Drive-In - Our food! - Ice Cream & Frozen Yogurt Near Me - Capitol Heights, Maryland

This place has gone downhill, If you want undercooked food this is place to go, I love the stomach cramps after eating here. The service said one minute 10 minutes later I found my self clicking the Order button again. They took my car and I had to walk over to the building to retrieve my card back. And they messed up my order. And I corrected the bill before paying. The place looks a little rundown now, they have not fixed any of the displays for ordering. read more

Absolutely the worst. Slow slow slowwwww . Rude . And why no skates . The guy came out with actual slides on his feet and he was very unfriendly. His face was said he Didn't want to be at work . Again NO SKATES . This place needs a whole new staff . AVOID read more

This place is just bad..... For 3 people the total was $41 and we each had a regular burger with tater tots. We waited a good 40 minutes and everything taste like public school cafeteria food or freezer food. There was one girl going from cashier, to outside, to window basically doing everything. And the one mini shake(it was so small) we got was almost $5. Will not be coming back. read more

This sonic is a joke. I had to go to 4 different drive up screens to find one that actually works. Then when I push the button, the lady rudely asks for my order then the SECOND I start talking she interrupts me and then disconnects. I press the button again and finally get my order in. The little girl that brought my order was so rude too. I said hi to her and she rolled her eyes and said NOTHING to me and just handed me my food. I said thank you to her and she rudely handed me my straws and walked away without saying a word. Tater tots were disgusting and over cooked. Chili dog was gross. If I could give 0 stars I would. Couldn't tell you the name of anyone because I was never given a receipt. And if management wants to know who was working, it was Tuesday, 3/26 @ 11:30am. I read more

Waited 10 minutes for them to even answer the call box. Building is close to customers so there is no way to communicate with staff. The bright our order and it was missing several items and I had to wait another 10 minutes for them to come out to someone else's table and tell them what was missing. 15 minutes later they still hasn't come back. I'm unsure how they are still in business. read more

Slow slow slow....from the service to the people. I have been in my sonic stall waiting for my food for over 20mins. There is no sense of urgency or fcksgiven. Close it down & pack it up. The whole place is terrible. Spent so much money on extra perks in my drinks and didn't get any of it. I'll find another place for slushees. SAVE YALL MONEY! Don't go. read more

Ordered on the app, arrived, checked in... Waited 5 min before checking to see what the delay was, my order was somehow lost... after confirmation waited another 10 min before my order was brought out .. My food was cold and my shake and slush were melted... I sent it all back read more

If I could give it 0 stars I would. This one needs to be shut down. The dining room is always closed, along with the drive thru. You can go to the walk-up kiosk but it will take forever for someone to take your order. Once they do, you better plan on hanging out for the next 30+min for someone to bring you your order. Meanwhile the garbages outside are overflowing. No matter what time of day it is...first thing in the morning, afternoon, evening...there is garbage everywhere outside. They literally walk it outside, barely cracking the door because it looks disgusting in there. I take my order to my car and everything is cold. I just waited 30min for some cold tots and a burger that looks & feels like they put it together a week ago. read more

Drove from Alexandria just to try the new pickle juice slushy. I know that sounds crazy but I love pickles! Drive-thru service was good. There was a family in front of me that took forever to order but when I pulled towards the drive thru window, someone walked my order outside so I didnt have to wait behind the family. The pickle juice slushy was milder on the pickle flavor but it hits your more at the end of the sip. Dont knock it til you try it! read more

Sonic Drive-In - Pickle juice slushy! The flavor is mild until you get to the end of the sip. - Ice Cream & Frozen Yogurt Near Me - Capitol Heights, Maryland

The worst fast food restaurant. Customer service and food is terrible. This location a franchise and not governed by corporate. They're constantly out of menu items and only after waiting in an enormous line when its your time to place your order is when you are informed of 90 % of items are out. Yes this has happened twice, but it will not be a third time. The electricity is often out. My complaint to corporate. on Nov. 14,2021 On this day, I waited for 43 minutes until I was able to place my order. I was informed that many things were out of stock. I was told I was unable to order a milkshake, no cup holders or fries. Although that was the main reason, my daughter came and waited. I substituted my meal with onion rings and was charged. This should not have been the case. After finally placing my order, I waited another 22 minutes. Only to pull off and realize my sandwich was cold and cheese not melted. I was unsatisfied with this experience and requested a refund/ I visited this location and noticed that several items on the menu were unavailable each time. For instance last month there were no options for fried food. I'll be awaiting a response. After three calls to corporate I have yet to receive a return the call. So today, Dec. 31, 20212- before the New Year to close-out this headache. I called the store myself and spoke to Buddy, the manager. He took the time to explain his experience-lack of staff, back order of parts for kitchen (electrical issue) and supplies. After he shared his approach to rectifying the problem I will give it another chance. I originally gave it a 1-star rating, now he increased it to 3-stars. read more

Food was like every other Sonic I've been to which is great since I love Sonic. The real issue that I had here was the person who was checking out people and handing food. Two cars in front of me had driven off and she came to my car with the wrong food. I let her know that two cars have driven off and that was not my order and she started cursing. Not necessarily at me but at the idea of what was happening. I understand how stressful that can be but I also know that that was absolutely unprofessional. read more

AVOID LIKE THE PLAGUE!! Let me start by saying that I'm a Sonic's lover! I ate Sonics growing up in Texas all the time. Now, on the rare occasions that I eat fast food, I usually like Sonics because the burgers are fresh and made to order. I've tried this location a total of 6 times in hopes that my experience would be better than the last. The line is always wrapped around the building and the line moves SLOOOOOW! The drive up bays are blocked off. I attempted to circumvent this on this final visit by placing an order thru they the app. I had to wait 3xS as long! When I finally got the food, the tots were cold. No apologies or explanations were given. I'm so disappointed. I won't be back. read more

This review is based off multiple visits to this location not just one. This location is just truly a disappointment all around. The last 3 times I came here, I pull up to the drive thru and they had a sign out there saying they had no fried foods! HUH? If you're a fast food restaurant with NO fried foods then what's the point of being open?! You might as well just close it down for the day. And this happened MULTIPLE TIMES? Like what in the actual fuck is management doing that this keeps happening!!! read more

This Sonic should get a negative rating. Worst experience ever at a Sonic. I usually love Sonic, but this location was such a disappointment. At first we were thinking they were just short hand. Which they might have been, but complete incompetence was also a factor. While we waited to pay at the drive thru window a car hop returned to a car at least 6 times with an ice cream... The cherry lime aid had no syrup... when I asked to exchange for cokes - it took forever! I didn't get a portion of my ordered. Why bother keeping this place open! read more

Incredibly disappointed. Let me start by saying I love Sonic. However, this location needs some serious quality assurance retraining.. or something. Went through the drive-thru around 10:30pm and ordered a crispy chicken sandwich and onion rings. Pretty long wait. The sandwich was absolutely ridiculous. It was so thin there was barely any actual chicken.. and more "cooked to a horribly dry death" than "crispy". Sonic should be ashamed of themselves for even having it on the menu if that is the best they can do. read more

Sonic Drive-In - A ridiculous excuse for a chicken sandwich - Ice Cream & Frozen Yogurt Near Me - Capitol Heights, Maryland

I don't know what the deal was with all the bad review of this place, so hopefully this review can help this sonic's reputation get back on track! I saw some old reviews and photos showing mold which is absolutely disgusting. But I had a fine experience dining in my car here. At the end of the day, it's fast food that you get delivered by a roller skating server to your car. The tater tots are good. The corn dogs are good. Ice cream is good. Food is pretty inexpensive. There are crazy different drink options. read more

This Sonic location is officially the worst. The food takes forever for them to prepare, causing the drive-thru line to move at a snails pace. When you finally get to the window you have the pleasure of dealing with employees with bad attitudes and zero customer service skills. Lord forbid you ask for condiments, thats when the sighing and eye rolling gets 10x worse. One would think with the extended wait times, the food would be fresh and made with some level of care. Not the case here. The food appears to be thrown together and lukewarm at best. Spend your money elsewhere. There are several other restaurants within walking distance from this place, where you would get better food and an overall better experience. read more

I grew up in Texas and LOVE Sonic. However, this is not a Sonic. I think there used to be a Sonic here, but it went out of business, and now only exists as a "Zombie Sonic." My wife and I came here following a Bowie Baysox game because we wanted a sweet treat. We pulled into one of the stalls to order. I was craving a sundae, but found it odd that those were not on the menu, and neither was the "Vanilla Ice Cream Dish" that I KNOW is on the menu at other locations (because that's what my wife wanted). I decided to take a chance and ask the server if they had just a small vanilla dish. They said yes, so we ordered that and a med. Fresh Banana Shake. The total came to $10, which I thought was a little high. When we finally received our "order," it was not what we were expecting. Instead of a small dish of vanilla ice cream, we got a 24oz cup full of ice cream, and instead of a "Fresh Banana Shake," I got some blended vanilla ice cream with a sad piece of banana at the bottom. To top it all off, I had to "enjoy" my shake through a paper straw. Oh, did I also mention that my cup had a crack in it, so it was leaking on me the entire way home. A pretty pathetic experience in the end. read more

I was going to post my review after eating breakfast here one day, and if I would have then, the review would have been a 1 star, which would really have been a 1/2 star. I came here on a Sunday morning about 10am and when I pulled up, I usually order at the board and have my food delivered by car hop, but I needed to get back on the road so I pulled up to the drive up window. There was one car in front of me waiting to order. Don't know how long they sat there, I had my window down and after 2-3 minutes they left without ordering... I pulled up, waited a minute, no one said anything to me, I said hello a few times... Silence... Finally someone asked me for my order, apologizing for the delay which made me feel better but still when I said hello, they could have said they would help me in a minute.. I ordered my breakfast, a burrito and what I love at sonic. Tater tots... After I ordered the 2-3 cars in front of me moved pretty quickly, and when I got up to the window I got my food fast, again they apologized for the delay... I pulled away and put my hand in the bag to pull out the golden nugget... Tator tot.. What I got was, well a tater tot, but one that was SO GREASY! My fingers were SWIMMING in grease!!!! I took photos and will post them. The amount of oil on them and the look and texture.. they had been cooked and put back in the oil to re-heat them.. THAT IS INEXCUSABLE!! That should NEVER happen! The management should NEVER allow that to happen, and there is no words to describe my disappointment. The burrito I got was ok. I was a little scared to eat that, but I did... About a week later driving back from the eastern shore with my wife, she wanted Sonic for dinner. So stopped here for dinner. I thought, dinner would be much busier and less chance of being served an oil bomb like I got for breakfast... The food we got that time was what is expected. Standard Sonic fare... So I would give the 2nd visit 3.5 stars, and the first visit 1/5 star so I am giving this place 2 stars. Again, no reason why they should EVER serve food like this... Someone working there does NOT CARE about serving good food... read more

I gave it only 3 stars because for one I don't like that the the actual sonic app has the full menu but if you go on Uber eats or door dash they don't show u every single item on the menu , second I don't like the fact that when I pulled in to one of the many service lane they failed to mention that the payment system wouldn't be working so I had to give the server my card as he went back into the building but apart from that I do like the food read more

This is perhaps the worst Sonic on the planet - at least the worst Sonic in DMV. Fast food is supposed to be fast. I waited in the drive through line for 35 minutes just to have my order taken!! It took another 15 min to get my food. If I hadn't already paid for the food I would have bailed. I thought it was a fluke so I visited this Sonic a second time - SAME experience. There's a Chic-fil-a and McDonald's right across the street. Go there. Seriously lol read more

I'll stick to Edgewater or Waldorf. I'm pregnant and when I crave things I crave them okay?! Lol! I wanted the chicken strip dinner and asked for chili cheese and onions on my tots and they said they can't cuz it comes in the box with the other stuff. Y'all can't put them on the side?! Petty. But whatever. I'll eat them with ketchup. My fiancé ordered the cheesesteak with no onions. This dry ass steak and bread combo came out. No cheese in sight. Get it togeva Sonic. We always go outside of PG County and DC even though we've lived here our whole lives, and will travel to VA or Waldorf for better service and I think we'll keep doing that. read more

Quick service and excellent ice cream. I was in the area and I usually don't do fast food, if I wanted dessert and didn't have time to get some while I was in Virginia for the day. I ordered the Oreo blizzard because they didn't have what I wanted the Reese's blizzard. Somehow they rant out of Reese's...maybe next time I'll get what I want. read more

I was in my feelings and didn't want to go home at 9:30pm tonight to eat leftovers. So I came here and I'm glad I did. Casey and the drive through young folks were so polite. They made me laugh and I tried something new. I can definitely appreciate the great customer service. read more

I waited all day to go to Sonic. I arrived and ordered a Cheeseburger. I left to go home and eat it. I opened my bag and smiled as I saw the cheeseburger. However, my feelings were soon to be played with. I opened the cheeseburger to find that they forgot to add cheese on the burger. At this point, I was home. I was extremely disappointed. Check your food before you leave and drive home. You are warned. read more

40 minute drive thru session. Please explain how you serve me cold food, I get back in line and you serve me cold food again. I tried to call but number wont connect. The icing on the cake was my receipt said green SUV, I have a black 2 door and when I asked they said that doesnt matter. I think it would it associate with peoples orders but I dont work there. Wont go to this location again. read more

Allegedly the restaurant opens at 9am but I made a mobile order at 9:45 and got there at 9:50 to pick it up and the workers were just getting there. Gentleman at the drive thru window waved me away, saying they were closed but I let him know I had already placed, and been charged for, a mobile order. He said they JUST opened because the opening manager was late and it would be 30 minutes before I could get my food. He suggested I cancel but I let him know that I wasn't able to cancel on the app. He said he could cancel inside for me and I let him do that because apparently there were no other options. This isn't the first time I've had a problem here and I won't be coming back. read more

This review is for the well mannered young man who was juggling both the drive in and indoor orders. Young man, as I told you before you are doing an amazing job and let nothing deter you. Continue to treat this job and any other one the way that you are and you'll be on your way to owning a few restaurants or more. I will definitely forward these sentiments to management and ownership. Kudos! P. S. The food was good too, :) read more

I am a super chill and understanding customer. I realize customer service is a rough business. I get that fast food especially is not a rewarding job. So i give people the benefit of the doubt as often as i can. Today's visit was a little frustrating, however. When i first arrived, half of the stalls were out of order, but i managed to get one that was working. I press the red button and immediately was greeted with a kind voice ready to take my order. Unfortunately i was ordering a foot long coney, and was told they didn't have foot longs. Oh, okay. So i asked if they had the regular size coneys. The employee said yes. So i had planned to order a few regular size coneys for my husband since they didn't have the footlongs that he wanted. So i order a number 6, which is the regular size premium hot dog. The employee asks which one i want. I told him i want the regular size coney. And then he says they're out of chili. ooooohkay. I didn't realize that. I thought the problem had been with the footlongs, not the chili. I guess it was both. Alright. So i asked the employee if i could our this on hold as i needed to call my husband to see what else he might want. I was told to take my time. Quick phone call to my husband, and less than a minute later i pressed the red button again. About 3-4 minutes had passed with me waiting on a response. Nothing. I look at the stall screen and realize that the "red button activated, we will be with you soon" message had been replaced with "press the red button below to start your order." Well that's weird. I didn't realize those things could time out. So i pressed the button again. I waited 5 minutes this time. No response. I decided to press it one more time, while simultaneously opening the sonic app to see if i could just order this way. No response ever came from the speaker. I placed my order on the app, and finally received it 15 minutes later. Which alllllll of this would have been absolutely fine and understandable if the carhop that came to deliver my order had made any sort of mention of my wait time. I've sat here 30 minutes to order 2 burgers. And that just seems a bit ridiculous to me. Sometimes things are out of your control. Sometimes you're busy or understaffed (which from the outside looking in doesn't seem like the case, but i could be mistaken) but the least you can do is acknowledge the inconvenience to your customers. P.s. they forgot my mozzarella sticks, but I'm not going to try my luck with the red button again. read more

Came here and everything was trash. Pulling into the place, ordering, paying, the customer service and the food just trash. Don't waist your time read more

Reading all the other reviews I thought.. no way it could be a 2 star restaurant. That's when I decided to make the 20 minute drive to come here. At first we tried ordering at the stalls until we were approached by a working saying it was drive through only. Waiting 10 minutes in line (wasn't that long). Experience wise 2 stars. Food 4 stars Drinks 3 stars. THEY GAVE PAPER STRAWS OUT with a frozen drink. Get part about it all, they are too thin to consume the nerds add ons in the slushes. read more

This sonic is the worst. Who answers the drive thru Intercom with "hello". "Huh". Are y'all slow? And then my order is wrong and I send it back. Then they forget about me and I have to walk up to remind them I'm still waiting. They need to bulldoze this place and put something else here. This isn't the first time I've had problems either. Whose franchising this place? Give up now please. read more

I had the cheesecake shake the best and footlong hotdog chili & cheese good. Just wish it was more on my hotdog.

The worst customer service ever! Sat in drive thru so long I decided to just order at the window. it took 30 mins to get a damn hot dog and a slushy!! Everyone was served bf me that ordered after me!! The wait time is ridiculous! I never have this problem at the Edgewater location! read more
