    Picklerita Slush
    Hayley C.

    just came here for the pickle-themed items! it was actually my first time at sonic so I didn't know what to expect. for one thing, I guess the rollerblading thing is a lie, they didn't rollerblade my food out to me LOL. but that's fine, not why I put 3 stars. firstly, the picklerita slush was absolutely delectable. I'm not sure how everyone else on social media is saying it's not good or it's just okay, I thought it was great. maybe you really have to be a pickle fan to like it, which I am, considering I used to drink pickle juice out of the jar as a kid. the tots however had no pickle flavor. was a real disappointment, and you can't even add instructions on the app to ask for more seasoning. the bathrooms were also hideously dirty. additionally, on the app, it did this weird thing where I placed an order, and it said it would be ready at 2:51, but when 2:51 came and it wasn't here yet, it literally completed the order and made it seem like I already picked up my food. It came out like 7 ish minutes later, but that scared me because I thought I wasn't getting my food lol. not a good feature on the app tbh.

    Sonic Drive-In has become very popular on the East Coast and Midwest for years. They bought the Sonic Drive-In concept in California a couple of years ago, but now very popular in the southland. Before finding a Sonic, it wasn't easy, but now they popular out certain cities. I have been to a couple of Sonic Drive-In restaurants around California. My wife and I enjoy the food, especially their new items. Also, everybody gets attention when Sonic interduce new items.

    The food is good, but the wait is long. Meals can take more than half an hour. I remember they used to have skaters delivers the food to the car, but did not see them when we went on Saturday during lunch hour. Although the wait was long, we still enjoy the outdoor patio with the warm breeze with our slush and biteable ice cube drinks. Hope they can improve on their food making speed and hope to see the skaters back. Can't wait to try their shakes, you won't believe it's half off after 5pm!

    The drinks were perfect after a long hot day. Pickle flavor is on point for their slush and the pickle boba is oddly delicious. We ordered from the car hop but not sure if they were understaffed or not because we waited over 35 minutes for our drinks (no food). ‍ only down side was the long wait but the drinks were great.

    Came here on Halloween for the 50 cent corn dogs and this was before, or maybe even after, the dinner rush so there was no delay in getting our food when we pulled up to the curbside ordering next to the menus (our's was broken, but the hostess was nice enough to punch in a payment at one that was functioning) nor was there any wait when we went through the drive thru for some more snacks on the road. The corn dogs seem smaller than what I remember before at a different location, but no big deal since they were only 50 cents. Comes out piping hot. Standard corn dog. Went great with mustard. We also ordered 2 orders of tater tots and an Oreo shake and although both were pretty standard and at a normal cost, they weren't bad. Hit the spot for our hungry car. Decent fast food.

    Foods good - the girl at the window was so bad. Service usually isn't this bad when i go get fast food. We spontaneously popped out for a treat in Monrovia. There's so many restaurants but it was 9:50pm and everything was about to close so we chose Sonic! There were like two cars in the ports and nobody in the drive thru so it was perfect. Even inside the only one not chillin was the worker at the sink. Why rush the customer then lol constantly asking "is that's it?" and have is wait so longg (maybe cooking stuff fresh idk) whatever but then the drink came out all low? Then we're leaving and the guy outside looked so depressed Idk kinda sucked ngl it's fine foods fresh but yeah ima not come back for a while

    It said it opens but it closed

    This sonic closed at 10:30pm and people are trying to order. This is bad customer service. You guys lost about 5-10 customers came at 10:40pm to 11:00. They didn't block off the drive thru or the stall. This will be sent to corporate.

    First time at sonic. Pickle fries surprisingly good. Nice sugar free flavor options. Got a diet limeade and Coke Zero.

    Delicious

    Was at this location on Saturday and what a good experience. I had been wanting to go to a sonic for quite a while, was on my way to the valley from Asuza and decided to make a pit stop here. Ordered a double burger with fries and a drink. The burger was delicious lol and really enjoyed my meal. The young worker who brought our food out was respectful and professional. Very attentive also. Hard to see that nowadays, especially with the younger kids. Wife and I ate in the car and we were nothing but pleased with our sonic burgers and fries. Too bad there isn't one in the sfv. Will definitely be back soon. Everything was so fresh from the burger to the fries and drink. Even the wife said, wow this burgers is sooo good. Lol

Sheeeeeeeeeiiit. True story- All throughout my time at San Pedro High, my best friend Mick and I usta demolish their Combo Burger Platter (burger/fries AND onion rings, side salad and drink) for only $3.65. 40yr flashback over, your favorite Yelp correspondent went for Fantastic's pastrami sandwich combo. And while it doesn't come with a quintet of items guaranteed to fillya up- I can vouch that the pastrami is legit!!! Well seasoned, peppered, served steaming hot aboard a French roll gently slicked with mustard. I've had my share of fabulous pastrami in my time- Katz Deli in NY, Brent's Deli in Northridge and more locally and if you're in a severe 'strami fix...then Togo's #9 will do ya, too. This doesn't compete at those lofty levels, but for its price I'll order this eight days a week over the razor-thin pastrami dispensed by the overrated The Hat chain of pastrami-phixated locales! While this was a takeout order, I can attest that all of my.prior dealings w/ the Eat Fantastic staff has been just fine. Courteous and swift service.

Every bite had a great balance of sweet, savory, and smoky flavors. We also shared the braised short rib tacos, which were fantastic. The short rib was tender and flavorful, while the pickled onions, watermelon radish, and serrano peppers added freshness, texture, and just the right amount of kick. The fries were golden and soft. They were not particularly crispy, but they still paired well with the meal. Overall, everything we tried was delicious!
