    Ocean water
    Lexi S.

    Ocean waters and a warm pretzel with cheese sauce. So good! Their pretzels are soft and doughy like ones from Auntie Ann's. Tried the chili dog and liked it (hopefully I'll feel ok after eating it!) they do not have gluten free options! Service was fast but attentive and it's very casual as it's a drive thru!

    We were in the area and decided to stop. We don't have a sonic close to where we live so we were excited. This sonic is a drive in only so you have to eat in the car which I didn't love doing with a toddler. When we got the food it was hot and tasted fresh. The service was pretty fast and they have lots of stalls for you to pull into and order. The menu is big and has lots of options and they have my favorite cube ice. I wish you had the option to dine inside so that was the only downfall. There were lots of trash cans outside so when you are done you can throw away everything. I wish we had a location closer so I could come more often.

    absolutely worst place to go. 20 minutes waiting for our order. two hotdogs and two drinks. will never return. you need management to come and train this place.

    ReReReReRefried fries. I ordered a burger and chill cheese fries and recieved a soggy burger with soggy fries. Honestly one of the worst Sonic experiences I've ever had.

    I don't have any words. This does NOT qualify as a burrito in any universe. Someone literally made this, wrapped it up and sold it. No way the person that made this would have wanted to eat this for themselves. You guys can't be serious......

    Too expensive, weird system. They even charge for the water!! I thought there was a a law where if you bought something you could get water for free. Everywhere free water but here! And they are asking for tips. And they are taking forever bringing my food. When I made my order I asked for ketchup. They didn't bring me any and had yo wait some more to get it. Food was small and salty.. They should got bankrupt. For bad fast food places. Not coming back here.

    Pretty hit or miss when it comes to the food and service at this location. Today's visit , I was sitting long enough in the drive thru to get my eyeballs on the shake machine. .. guess they don't clean often

    Onion Rings
    Kenia G.

    I don't eat meat, but I wanted to try some sides. The groovy fries were awesome so good, the onion rings on point. The jalapeños poppers the bomb. I tried the Oreo blast super good and the Dr Pepper with cherry vanilla and lime was excellent. Easy ordering system in person inside your car and the app was also awesome. I would def return I high recommend these items. Not bad for vegetarian items. They provide some good options and felt like their lil fried foods were very clean. Not greasy at all. Be careful when you bite into the jalapeño poppers, it's very hot :). One of the best things they also provide is sauces. You can get a few of their signature sauces at no additional cost. Select wisely. Their server was very nice walking around hustling handing out the food. Great location. I had an excellent experience. Keep up the good work. The price was very good as well.

    Just ordered breakfast from here . It was so bad I couldn't even eat it. I keep trying to get good food from here. Always a disappointment

They also are generous with their scoops like everyone mentioned!! The quality of the ice cream is soo good! It feels soft and fluffy.

The girl working behind the counter was very patient and of kind demeanor as we sampled a handful of flavors. We end up going with a large cup of strawberry cheesecake, pistachio, and Reese's. A glossy wooden tables were very pleasant to eat at with good lighting and a comfortable interior temperature. At $8.25, this feels like a steel. A cup practically had a whole pint of ice cream in it, maybe a pound of goodness. The consistency of this ice cream was lovely - thick and full-bodied, with parts the melted merging with the base of the scoops into a cream mixture rather than the typically runny drip. All around a nice neighborhood spot that will hopefully grow into a local destination gem!
