I love all Sonic Restaurants chilli cheese hot dogs. There are very delicious! I also love their blue raspberry slushies in the summertime.

The pretzel twist was good. It was soft and buttery. I would avoid the cheddar cheese it comes with. It was salty and had mo flavor, just salty. The salted caramel iced coffee was refreshing. It was sweet and tasted like a caffinated creamer. I do wish it was stringer in caffeine though. The place was empty. I dont know why but the food doesn't feel trustworthy here. One of the workers even got food from a different restaurant. The bathroom has a code and needs cleaning and fixing. The toilet seat was falling off the toilet. read more

Thanks for staying open late and letting me get a cherry limeade slush for the way home. It's my guilty pleasure and this one hit just right after a long day. Not your typical drive-in Sonic because you can't drive up to this location, but it still hold up to the brand. The space is larger than you would think with a nice size fine-in area. I wanted to grab my quick drunk and snack and head home as it was late. I love Sonic's drinks AND their snacks, so I also got a soft pretzel for the ride home. Finally, thanks to the staff for the quick turnaround. read more

Man, Sonic's food is underrated. They have very soild variety, I tried Sonic for the first time in Astoria, NY. The service was good too, they're nice and the place is clean and fancy looking. I know it's not the the vintage drive-in, but I like that Sonic is trying something new for once. I just hope they last longer unlike Dairy Queen in the Bay Plaza Mall. We need different fast food chains in NYC. By the way, last week I ate the Sonic Smasher at my sister's house, it was good. And Lastly, WE NEED MORE SONICS, ESPECIALLY IN YONKERS! (Or at leash closer to Yonkers) read more

Bring back the late hours ..if anything Just on the weekends ..I star off for closing earlier now

I've actually never been to Sonic before, but my friends and I passed it on the way to the subway stop. My boyfriend ordered a burger and a milkshake - the burger was no bueno, but the milkshake was okay!! My friend we were with who has been to Sonic said the key is to order sides + milkshake at Sonic. The inside is I guess your typical fast food joint, with more space given the location. read more

I didn't even know sonic was in the area. I decided to order a cheeseburger with tots and a cherry slushi. The little bits of cherry in the drink were so good. This item tasted like it was made just for me and fresh. I hadn't had sonic since like 2010. The tater tots were really good. There was one of two of them that had that crispy crunch that I like. Too bad they all weren't that crunchy. The burger was pretty good actually too I was shocked. I didn't expect much from them but they really came through with a good meal. I hope to come back one day. The place is pretty easy to get to as well if the 7 train decides that there is no service issues. If they were closer to me I would have that slushi like 3x a week, no lie. read more

I love Sonic and am so glad to have one in the area. This one obviously doesn't have the fun drive-thru lanes, but that's okay. Service here is typical fast food service, which is fine. I tend to order online, and the food is always ready when promised. The food here is as it is at every other Sonic. I love the tater tots and the cherry limeades, although I will say that they tend to skimp on the extra cherries (which cost extra). Great having a Sonic in the neighborhood! No major deficits at this one! read more

I like their ice that you can buy, and my kid likes the ice cream - but thats about it. The food is subpar, and basic at best. The service is quick, soemtimes - the vibe is ok, a bit older of a feel to it with the drive-thru. read more

No line , when I walk in about 8 pm . I walk to the cashier and order the Quarter pounder double cheese burger, as you can see it's ok burger ! It's $3.50 plus tax. It had a bit more cheese I thought it would! This place has plenty of seating . And if you're looking for the bathroom, the code is located in your receipt! read more

I came here today to get some of my favorite chicken slinger sandwiches and they were completely raw and uncooked. My partner got very bad stomach pains and we had to drive back to get a refund. I didn't want to eat the other two sandwiches, which were for me because I was scared to get sick. The supervisor was very understanding and gave u a refund with free ice cream and some more chicken and mozzarella sticks which I didn't eat, but the gesture was nice. I really think the cooks should make sure the food is fully cooked before serving it to customers. read more

I was so excited to cone here, since I have not seen a Sonic since my last visit to VA. I was a bit leery at the rating, but I chose the item with the best reviews.... bad idea. I ordered the #1 cheeseburger combo with a cherry limeade (upcharge) and tater tots. The staff was friendly, the space was bright, clean and open, buzzing with kids fresh out of school. Everything seemed OK. My order lonly took about 5 minutes which should have been an indication of what was to come. First, I noticed my limeade was very red, with two tiny pieces of lime. If you have ever had one from another location, you know is full of tangy limes. Not here. I have a sweet, cherry soda with a hint of lime flavor. I opened my burger and tots. It all looked fine, but once again, deceived. Tots, greasy and cold. Burger? DISGUSTING!!!! The texture was almost gelatinous, in its lukewarm, flaccid state, as if it was cooked in the microwave. Toppings, tossed on, with a hint of the pickle flavor, something I requested off my sando. With other fast food chains in the area, this may not be much more than a shakeshop or dessert stop in the future. I suggest the staff try making the recipes as directed by corporate. Or visit a location with better quality food and make the proper adjustments. Ugh, I feel sick. read more

This place never has the internet deals. Don't go here. I went here October 2, 2024 @ 12pm for the 99¢ corn dogs and the said they don't do these deals. This is the third time I went here for an internet/ Instagram /social media deal and they said the same thing, that they don't do these deals. Do NOT go here for deals. They suck. Maybe the employees are taking the food home for themselves. read more

First, there is no Drive-In. Second, their app is poorly written. It gives no order number and it's not easy to navigate. If you load their app you'll get rewarded a bacon cheeseburger for half price. The burger was average; the beef patties are very thin. Service was good. I definitely have to visit again to try their other stuff. read more

Welcome Sonic! After reading the other reviews, take it with a grain of salt. Some of the employees are young and this might be their first job so have some patience or it's a new system so they are working through things. Keep in mind, it was this store's grand opening and not everything might run smoothly in the beginning despite best efforts by all the employees especially when the demand was high. The first time was a bit hectic so I came back a second time to get a snack when it's less busy. Got a small order of nuggets (sauce option: bbq, honey mustard, ranch) and small Oreo Sonic blast. It was ready in a few minutes though make sure to take note of your order number (on the top left) which I didn't pay attention to since I put my receipt away. The nuggets were hot and the Sonic blast was perfect. If you go, enjoy! read more

Newly Opened; great addition to Sunnyside/LIC! I was in the neighborhood and saw Sonic....and said to myself... Tater Tots!! Haha My first impression of this location was that service is super slow. There was a long line and it didn't seem to be moving. Finally our turn, and we placed our order. Then waited for our order # to be called....and waited...and waited. After about 15 minutes, we asked them how much longer it would take. Upon their investigation (lol), they determined that they gave our order to someone else! Sooooo, we had to wait for them to remake our order. Good thing we didn't order alot! While we were waiting for our order to be remade, the customer who got our order and left, came back and said "this is not my order!". She was obviously annoyed. In total, it took us 25 minutes to get our order! To be continued... Ok, just had our snack: -- Tater Tots ($2.19/8pcs): standard tater tots but they were a little undercooked. Crispier tater tots would have been yummy! -- Ched R Peppers ($3.79/small order of 4 pcs): a little pricey for 4 pcs but these were terrific! Nice and crispy! Ask for ranch dressing for dipping. -- Sauced Jumbo Popcorn Chicken ($5.69 for medium size/12 small pcs): you have a choice of Honey BBQ or Buffalo sauce; we picked Honey BBQ. This was disappointing. Not only were these not "jumbo" (see my photo), there was only a drizzle of sauce on the popcorn chicken. There was an extra 20¢ charge for "sauced" chicken. I would suggest ordering the plain popcorn chicken and ask for dipping sauce instead of the sauced version. Also, these were undercooked and not crispy. I would definitely come back for the Ched R Peppers and Tater Tots (asking for well-done or extra crispy). Hopefully they work out the service kinks to improve speed and accuracy. Note that they don't have a double door at the entrance; making it extremely cold inside. This will be a bigger issue in the winter, when it gets colder out. But on a positive note, I do have to mention that while we dined, employees came by the dining room about 4 times, to ask everyone if they needed anything. They carried a tray with napkins, straws, condiments & utensils. Nice touch and much appreciated! :D Welcome to the neighborhood and Good Luck to Sonic! I shall be back and hopefully can update this review with a better rating! read more

When in Western Queens, nowadays, parking may be hard to come by. But pulling up to the Sonic in Long Island City is a trip. I found parking, but it was a block away. Unlike their other locations, there is no Sonic parking lot. You don't dine in your car. Like all Manhattan restaurant locations below 90th Street, this is sit in or take out only. For a Sonic, that is unusual. There is nothing special about the breakfast sandwich I had with tater tots, but the cherry limeade is a wonder to behold. Finally, a Sonic for New Yorkers without a car.i read more

Don't really eat at Sonic but wanted to relive my childhood. I got an uber order so I did not dine in person but was underwhelmed in that my burrito did no include sausage even though it said it would. The fries that accompanied were not crispy or good to accompany the burrito. The burrito was not really good either and I'm not sure if I'd get this item again or if it was a one-time mistake. read more

Sonic Drive-In - Supersonic Breakfast Burrito - Ice Cream & Frozen Yogurt Near Me - Long Island City, New York

It's been about a week or two of opening and you guys must hate your job already. Ordered jumbo BBQ popcorn chicken-- got a joke of a container with small popcorn chicken and like 2 drops of BBQ sauce. Also ordered small tots, got 7 tots total-- one was eaten to test for crispy factor, the tots at least passed the crispy test. A corn dog was ordered also, but absolutely no condiments in the bag. None for the mini popcorn chicken, none for the hotdog, none for the tots. Dry, like my hopes for this Sonic. Maybe I've been spoiled by the Sonic in Long Island (the small comes with enough tots for two people) and the popcorn chicken filled the whole container even when they're not labeled "jumbo". Burger was decent, won't complain about that. It's juicy, cheesy, and full of all the calories I asked for. read more

Quite possibly the absolute worst burger I have ever had in my life! It literally had no flavor whatsoever, you would figure that even with the bacon it would have a some added flavor but nope! This thing was as flavorful as a eating styrofoam, the most blandest burger in all of burgers, you would think the food made here was for diabetics because of how bland it is. Never again will I come here and you shouldn't either. P.S. Go up the block to McDonald's or further up to Burger King because this place ain't it chief! read more

I'm a BIG fan of Sonic. I've never been to one where you eat indoors. I'm used to eating in my car. But this was really nice spacious restaurant. The chicken tenders and French fries were delicious. I would definitely eat here again and recommend it to others. My only negative complaint was the explicit rap music. I didn't find that to be appropriate. Expecially in a children friendly environment. Which is why I rated it four stars and not five. Perfect location right off the 7 train if you're headed to Citifield to see a Mets game. A great pit stop to save money instead of eating at the baseball game. read more

First timing will definitely be looking to order other things off the menu good try definitely interested in the milkshakes they have

I think the folks leaving the poor reviews need to consider that this is a new business, and it looks like the majority of the crew are... high school kids! This is probably their first job and are still getting accustomed to the volume the restaurant receives, the menu, and other attributes that go towards working in a brand new restaurant. Fast food = high pressure. As a Sunnyside resident, I was so happy to see that we now have a Sonic! And upon visiting a handful of times, I can say that the quality has remained consistent and the menu is *chefs kiss*. Super thankful for this location!! read more

Really good and fast service today when I ate here today by myself for lunch on a hot afternoon before returning to my 3rd Yelp Elite Event at Queens Training Club for a refresher session at 1 PM. I purchased and got the bacon cheeseburger combo (comes with fries and a drink)! It was hot and great. The place looks nice and clean but it's definitely worth it at least to get my order of what I really wanted. The funny problem is that there's no drive thru despite the name of this fast food chain and I hope there's more Sonic in Queens! Finally, I would definitely come back here again next time for a quick meal or anything else! :) read more

I don't really leave reviews and I haven't used Yelp in god knows how long but I had to redownload this app just to share. DONT COME HERE Food was awful, I ordered popcorn chicken jumbo which look like a normal but it didn't matter because it was stale and hard as a rock as I came home from the 7 min drive from there. The sodas we ordered tasted like it had a dirty dish towel in it,guess they don't clean the machine or management decided to cut corners and bought a old soda machine,we also ordered a hotdog which tasted funny and mozz sticks that was stale as well,as I'm typing this I can feel like I'm probably gonna vomit this crap up because the thought of the food experience makes me gag. I'm a city guy so I never really had sonic but you would never catch me eating that stuff again For the love of God stay away from Sonic on northern! read more

The food here is meh. I was expecting better and had since forgotten how mediocre this place really is. The Sonic water could have tasted better and something seemed off. I prefer Poland Springs. The tater tots were okay. The double cheeseburger I got reminded me of Checkers, another burger restaurant. Nothing special about this place at all. To me, it was a low quality burger. I probably will not return unless I am drunk and I need food. read more

Disgusting. My cheeseburger had so much mustard. It's all I tasted. The onion rings had no flavor but had a weird sweet taste. I threw most out. The only good thing was the cherry limeade. But that tasted like a cherry sprite. A mess. read more

It's Sonic, not All American in Massapequa. I certainly was not expecting a culinary masterpiece. I did get what I paid for, a burger, tater tots and a soda. And the tots were good and hot.

Onion rings are finally here! We've been asking and waiting. Glad to have one of our guilty pleasures in Queens!

Absolutely horrible-stay away! Ordered at 7:45 and never got my food. Sonic will not get my business. They don't deserve it.

Food is incredibly average. Not worth a detour or even a stop if you were to pass by honestly. Im not saying it's bad at all, but just isn't worth going back to. Not much variety too. Skip the mozzarella sticks cheese isn't melted just warm. Skip the chili dog it's the same as the 7-eleven chili dog lol. Burger wasn't the worse i've had but i wouldn't care if this place closed tomorrow lmao. Kinda disappointing. read more

Um a big no no for me. Burgers are okay, the cheese and jalapeño poppers/potato sides are waaaay better at Burger King.
