Although it's a drive to get here, sometimes you want what you want and you make the drive anyhow. I enjoy the variety at Sonic's and the vibe. You can walk up and order, use the drive-thru or pull into one of the stalls and enjoy your purchase on site. They have happy hour everyday and even morning and late evening specials. There is an option to sign up for promotions via text too. I haven't been done wrong yet with their milkshakes and I'm still a fan of the limeades. Each time I've come here the customer service is on point and no attitudes. Make sure you tip your carhop for excellent service. There are a few carhops that don rollerblades/skates and give it that back in the day feel. Turning into the area can be a little challenging since it's on a busy street. When exiting, use the rear exit and turn right and exit near the light to avoid trying to merge into traffic. They pay attention to the customer's order and you can pay at your stall or you can pay your carhop. Great place to unwind after a hectic day and you can bring the kiddies too. read more

I have no idea why I come to this location. It's always a hit or miss (mostly miss). I went here today and the customer service was terrible. I ordered a cranberry slushy and a strawberry slushy. The strawberry slushy turned out to be cherry and when I reminded the guy that he didn't he give me my cranberry slushy, he was like "I thought I gave you the second one". I threw my drink in the trash, my mom didn't drink hers at all, and the tater tots were dry after. They will never get my business again. The service has gone down significantly over the years. read more

The shakes are worth the long trip. But when you have to argue over an offer when it is right on board behind server. Why can't they honor what the market. Manager couldn't even come out to talk to us. Coney hot didn't taste that good anyway. We were charged more than offer shows. read more

This place is BEYOND disgusting!!! Plus, my family ordered sundaes and we just wanted our money back and the manger came out yelling that they gave us a deal and that we should take it. They gave us one large milkshake and it took 15 minutes with about 10 people in the kitchen! Beyond ridiculous... read more

Sonic ! Where have you been all my life ?!!!! I finally stopped by yesterday and got the 2.99 burger and onion rings . The burger was DELICIOUS, fresh onions, lettuce , big round slice of tomato, hot , great bun , heavenly! The onion rings weren't so good . Undercooked and all the breeding slid off so I ate two and threw the rest away . No biggie . Service was SUPER fast and very nice ! I'll be back !! read more

I ordered Sonic through Uber eats, and the Uber eats driver took 2 hours to deliver to me. Sonic called me twice during this time, once when the order was done and to let me know they had contacted Uber eats to try to get a driver to come pick up the food so it wouldn't get cold, and another time an hour later to let me know an Uber eats driver still hadn't come, and they were remaking my entire ($160) order because it was cold. They also threw in some extra food because they felt bad. This is my first time ever eating Sonic and I am thoroughly impressed with the customer service. Will definitely be ordering from here again, just not through Uber eats! read more

Can't even add ranch to the order when asked. Always takes forever. Terrible service. Another time, child peed pants because it took so long

Diet Cherry Limeades keep me comin' back! The tater tots are never good! Why is that? I'm just wanting school cafeteria-level tots but the oil they are cooked in tastes funny or something to me. The Sonic Blasts, sort of like a blizzard, never have enough toppings, and the toppings are mostly on the top. If you get a large, though, it's like having 17 pounds of ice cream. read more

June 19th all day long was half off shakes. Not living close to a sonic caused a road trip to this location. Sonic has upped their profile by introducing new delicious flavorful concoctions. I had a list to chose from to include: cookie dough, peanut butter fudge, peanut butter cheesecake, salted caramel, etc. I had my eyes on one and that was chocolate jalapeño. Yes this does exists and it's very interesting. I enjoyed it until I got it the end of the shake. The shake creator didn't mix that well and had about 10-12 small slices on the bottom making it not taste too great. My body doesn't process dairy well so I can say it was worth a try read more

This location is very serviceable!! Great service at the drive up!! Food came out fast for a Friday night!! One of my only complaints is that they don't have cole slaw to put on the coneys!! In the south, the coneys come "all the way" with coleslaw included! I was offered sauerkraut instead!! One of my only knocks on this location!! Otherwise, it will provide the Sonic fix that we desire!! read more

I came here for a stop from driving, and pulled up to the drive up ordering. I pressed the red button for ordering 3 times, each time it timed out because no one responded. My husband who was driving his own car ordered at the stall next to me, and received his food fairly quickly. I saw an ad on the screen for the app so I downloaded it, and proceeded to order. After 10 minutes of fiddling around with the app I was finally able to order through the app which apparently did not go through, and I still had to press the dang red button again to order! Someone finally picked up, and I placed the order. My food did not arrive for another 15 minutes! The car hop finally came out all "nonchalant" after no one would answer me when I walked up to the window. She was "oh really" when I shared the extended wait time for an order I had paid for.... read more

It's hard to give a fast food place a review as your experiences are usually all over the board. But, after over a year of frequenting Sonic in Edgewater, I've noticed a couple of issues that seem to always crop up. First, the drive thru service is AWFUL! I'm not sure what the issue is but it never seems like the person on the other end of the microphone can get things right. Second, the drive thru service here is ALWAYS slow. Third, the menus for the drive thru are very hard to read. The drive-in "booth" menus aren't much better. Fourth, the interior of this unit always seems to be more greasy than you would normally expect from the typical Sonic. When the drive thru window is opened, you can smell that "old grease / oil" smell. Fifth, I've never gotten an order which is 100% right. This last time, it took the staff THREE attempts to make a SONIC BLAST with chocolate ice cream. AND, after I get the third Blast, the chocolate syrup they used to make the ice cream chocolate was dripping out from under the cup lid and all over my pants and shirt. I haven't had a good experience with the burgers at this location and pretty much stick with their hot dogs. About half the time they forget a key ingredient on the Chicago dog. They do get the Chili Dog with mustard, cheese and onion right all the time though. My biggest complaint is that Sonic in general doesn't offer a sugar-free Slush. They have Splenda sweetened flavorings that they use to flavor their soft drinks -- which pretty much causes the soda to be flat BTW -- but, they could offer a Splenda sweetened Slush as well. I've been to many Sonics over the years. This one is not up to par at all. It's too bad because I know it can be done better! read more

The people here are apparently either deaf or dumb because they can never hear what I'm trying to order and cut off the speaker before I can correct them. This isn't even one of the better Sonic locations. I end up consistently disappointed in them. read more

Have had mediocre experiences. It's a hit or miss...Have had to send things back to be remade as well as my wife. Tonight wife and I came for 1/2 price shakes and machine was broke (which was a major let down). Shakes are what they are known for and machine is broken really...Makes me start to think twice of coming. read more

I used to live half a mile away from Sonic back in Austin. It was great and all but I didn't truly appreciate it as I should have. You know what they say, you don't know what you've got till it's gone. This is the truth. It took me a year and a half to find a Sonic in the DC area, but I was SO EXCITED once I did! I always thought it was so cruel that I would see Sonic commercials on TV but I didn't think there were any locations anywhere near the DMV. We recently enjoyed a day on a boat a mile down the road from here, and then clumsy me had to slip and seriously hurt my foot/ankle. What better cure is there than a Sonic burger, tots and a Cherry limeade??? None, me thinks. Service was my only complaint. The little carhop dude was nice but not prepared at all. He didn't even carry ketchup packets, napkins, mints, etc. on his tray like they're supposed to. We asked for ketchup and then he just never came back. read more

It's 4 o'clock in the afternoon. How do you run out of onion rings? I just drove off and didn't get anything. *shakes head*

This was my first time ever trying out a Sonic. I found the layout of the restaurant with the car pull up order areas with people on roller skates to be cool even though we just parked and sat at the small group of tables next to the building. If you want a more peaceful enviroment then I suggest you eat in your car with the windows up since the car speakers and walk-up speakers can be loud. Upon starting our order I have to say the guy taking it seemed a little confused and we had to repeat ourselves a few times. After sitting down, a friend of several of the staffers came which they continuously left the building to go out and talk to in between working inside and serving the people. I wouldn't have had a problem with this if my order had come out correctly. Also at one point I saw a staffer return from one car with a carton of fries on her tray that she was eating from that she didn't previously have when she left the building to deliver food to another car. I ordered a Super Sonic Double Cheeseburger, no onions or pickles with mayo and ketchup. The menu clearly says "with ketchup, mustard, OR mayo" meaning you can pick which ones, not that all three come on it. Instead my burger came out with mustard and mayo. I could have complained and if I had been in the right mood or dealing with a place that I was more familiar with but instead I sucked it up and ate probably 80%, leaving the most mustardy parts left over. Upon looking at the receipt, it was hard with the shorthand if it got switched by accident or if he took the order down wrong. Aside from that, the burger and fries were good, and the vanilla coke was also very enjoyable. If I decided to eat here again I would probably make sure that whoever took my order read it back to me first. read more

The food here is just like any other Sonic. The service is fast and the drinks are always good. We love Sonic and wish there were more around. The really great thing about this place is the manager. We left our lights on when we were eating and our battery died. The manager came out to see what was happening with our vehicle. He bought out a portable battery charger that the restaurant has. That didn't charge the truck's battery so he pulled his car around and let us use his battery to charge it. He's was very helpful and awesome. We'll definitely be supporting this Sonic when we're in the area. read more

Wow, the worst. The slowest customer service possible. Over 60 minutes for 4 sonic blasts, need I say more. Not sure how this place stays in business. I was stuck waiting because I already paid for it. read more

DONT COME HERE!! Always check your order! They don't listen! You ask for a hamburger made a certain way they fix it wrong! They bring you a cheeseburger, charge you for it!! What's the point in asking me what I want if you're going to fix me whatever you want?! Smh read more

Horrible service I stopped by moments ago on a small break from work to order breakfast and I was the only person in line I ordered a breakfast burrito and a drink and not only was the service insanely slow I was only given a side of tots in my bag after I traveled all the way back to work so I spent about 7-8$ on a little thing of tots so I call and the manager answers and I explain what happened and she basically gives me a half sincere apology and ask if I'll come back which I wasnt able to make the trip back there and she basically just said to come back next time and I'll get free food..... I'm usually pretty patient but I feel like she treated me like I was annoying for asking for a refund by the tone and attitude in her voice when I was simply asking for a refund for not getting what I paid for I will not be returning and I'll tell friends and family not to waste their time here read more

I tried a wide sampling of their menu. Here's the breakdown: Mozzarella Sticks- They were fried sticks of Mozzarella. Pretty stale ones. I'm being generous. Cheddar Peppers- They taste like butt. Wrong Cheese. Footlong Dog- A 7-11 hot dog. Supersonic Breakfast Burrito- Disgusting. Tastes like paper and bread. Why use raw onions? Lime Aid- Pretty Good Actually... read more

So we stopped by here for 3 desserts...service took about 20 minutes and I ordered a Java Mocha Chiller. Took a drink and Wham-O...pure hot coffee in the bottom. It is as though they completely forgot to mix it up. I gagged...spit it out and repeatedly hit the red button. When I told the little box my problem they seemed annoyed. I know these are just kids working here but a little adult supervision goes a long way. Stopped by here a couple of times and services are just so SLOOOOOOW... read more

Had a cheeseburger...good ass cheeseburger. I ordered it with just ketchup and cheese because a loaded burger is hard to eat while i'm driving. read more

I have gone to the Sonic in Edgewater MD maybe 5 times, they have the worst employees and the food is slop. I always use the APP to order and they never get my order right , I always say NO MAYO or KETCHUP on my burgers and they always put in on anyway! plus the quality of food is not very good the fries are undercooked and really greasy, you are better off going to Chick Fil A or McDonalds down the street read more

1st time coming to a Sonic today, and got a couple 1/4 pounders. Wow, I do not get it.... Buns were falling apart soon as I unwrapped it. 3 bucks per burger..... for something that was just nasty read more

The food was really good and the girl that came to our car to give us our food was very kind. However, the woman that was taking our order (Tracy) over the speaker was very unkind. She seemed very unhappy that we were even ordering food. I understand that we are in a pandemic and times are less than ideal, but she is luckily still employed and should give us the best customer service that she can, as we are helping to stimulate the economy and even gave tips. Tracy had a terrible tone.. I could hear her rolling her eyes through the speaker. I appreciate Makayla, who brought our food out for making our experience even 3 stars. The service lowered our overall experience with the food and made it hard to enjoy my mother's birthday meal. read more

Took the kids to sonic after a fun morning/afternoon playing at the beach. Quick service from when we pressed the button and our order arrived. Everything was great and the order was correct. Totally worth the extra 20 min drive out of the way! read more

Either service is horrid or order system was broken. Should be a notification system that confirms button press. They didn't appear busy but no one asked for order so I left. read more

Never really had a problem here but this one occasion my BF and I waited over 30 mins on a Sat just to take our orders the Manager came out after I requested to speak with someone and he comped our entire meal and owned up to there's no excuse for the delay I will continue to come here and I appreciate his concern.... read more

RUDE. Was gifted a $25 gift card a few months back. Went to use it and their system was down. Instead of giving my card back they gave me a different card with a $15. credit (again because systems were down and they couldn't swipe). Fast forward to today I go and order lunch for a total of $8. I give the card to the kid at the window who didn't know what to do with it. He comes back and says he has to keep the card. I tell him I still had credit and he goes back to his manager. You can hear the manager complaining and telling the kid "I don't care I'll tell them myself". Manager comes to window with attitude saying he has to keep card and give it to his boss. I was trying to explain and he wasn't having it. So I went ahead and ordered something else off the menu which I am currently afraid to eat. So they essentially took my gift money and I'm out about 6 bucks. read more

Actually had the carhops on skates. which isn't always the case at other sonics. and it really does add to the experience. Food was good as always. Came out fast. good job guys keep it up. read more

I love me some Sonic, but hated this location, and I was so looking forward to having a Sonic nearby. Hopefully they will work their kinks out. We were there in time for the half prices drinks special but they tried to charge us full price and we had to get a manager involved. Plus the wait is insane. Save your Sonic visits for a trip down south read more

Well it started out great. Fast, HOT food and the drive in experience. Now, you can hardly get a hot burger on any given day. Doesn't matter if they are busy or not, your burger will be warm at best. They can never hear what you're saying the first time through the speaker system either. I LOVE SONIC but this one is slacking! read more

Been there 3 times where they messed up my order. No syrup in the soda. Tomatoes when I say NO tomatoes. Burgers with toppings missing. Depending on who's working is how your drink will look. 3 Strikes, You're OUT! It was good when it was correct but I'm tired of wasting my money and I shouldn't have to complain, It's fast food.. HOW hard can it be? I worked 3 years in fast food. This place is a joke! I even got an e-mail from someone trying to say this will never happen again after I complained. Doubt it, I don't want your gift certificates.. Look at the reviews for the past few years. Lack of management somewhere. So sad you bring a Sonic's to Maryland and it's such a disappointment. Save your money. Go to another Fast Food Chain in the area. read more

Ok gave it another shot and while it was much better than my first experience, I still wish my mozzarella sticks had been warmer! The server came up pretty quick in the roller skates and was pleasant (which I give props for considering it was freezing cold that day!) along with the person that took my order over the speaker. Can't wait to make it in time for happy hour next! read more

When we went there was a line of cars wrapped around the building and they didn't seem to be moving. We had better luck walking up to the window. Service was still slow. read more
