Always willing to try new fast food, I've always wanted to try Sonic. Living in northern NJ, however, there are no locations near me. Visiting Florida recently though, I was able to stop in this location in Parrish. The positives here were that the tater tots and French fries were good and the Chocolate Oreo Peanut Butter Shake was excellent! The burger, however, just didn't cut it. Bottom line is that I'll go back to Sonic, but probably just for a shake and fries. read more

Sonic Drive-In - Burgers Near Me - Parrish, Florida

I haven't been to a Sonic in over 10 years. Road trips make you do crazy things, so we decided to stop here for lunch. You can order and eat in your car, go through the drive thru, go inside to order and eat, or take it outside and eat on one of their picnic tables. Ordering was fast and simple. The food was very tasty. The burger I had was very good, but the bun was kinda hard. The fries and peanut butter milkshake I got were so good! read more

This sonic has been the worst restaurant I have ever been too. I ordered lemonade and it tasted rotten and dirty, the workers are rude and frankly stupid as they can't seem get the fact that they're working into their heads. We went in once on a Thursday an hour before closing time and the workers said "we're closing early tonight". What do you mean you're closing early tonight? I know for certain you aren't clocking out early though.. Terrible service, terrible food aswell, rancid and disgusting tasting like chemicals. Never go to this place please, go to Culver's or McDonalds or something else, this place sucks and has sucked for many years as seen by other reviews. They need to bulldoze the building and fire all the workers and make a new restaurant there. read more

AVOID this location!!! I walked in yesterday to pick up an uber eats order. I stood there for 5 minutes and not a single person spoke to me. I said, "excuse me, may I be acknowledged, please?". The main guy goes, "I'm busy. Your food is cooking". So, I said, "A simple, 'welcome to Sonic, be right with you takes a few secinds'". He replied, "don't tell me how to do my job". Then told me to get the f*ck out of his store as he walked outside to deliver an order. I didn't leave. He walked back in and said, "you ain't gettin' nothing". Then proceeded to tell me to suck his d*ck. Most unprofessional, uncouth, ignorant person I have ever met. And the rest of the staff looked so uncomfortable; like they were walking on eggshells. Even the drive through lady ignored me as she walked by twice. It was like they were all afraid to talk to me because of this guy. Worst human interaction of my life. 0 stars!! Don't go here!! I'll never accept another order from this location. Who talks to people like that while being of service?? Rant over. Thank you for reading. He also really did refuse my pickup order. read more

Possibly slowest Sonic in the world. This place needs some serious help like for real. Soda was watered down. How disappointing

Service is extremely slow at this location. Mobile ordering and parking in a slot is practically useless because they will not come out in a timely manner to bring your order. You are better off going inside, or through the drive through but even that is slow. Due to the wait my drink was watered down. read more

The worst service. Sonic food is terrific- not here! Takes forever, the order is always wrong, and when you point out that the order is wrong the "manager" (who clearly does not give a runny rat poop that you're not happy) says, well, we're busy! Five cars overwhelmed you dude? Even with 22 minutes for a drive thru order of a corn dog, fries, hamburger and tots and two drinks? This place sucks. I can't believe corporate hasn't shut it down or completely restarted the staff. Oh well - Burger King is right next door... read more

I visited this establishment on a Friday afternoon after school as my son wanted a specialty drink as a reward for excelling on a test. This is my first time visiting Sonic in possibly 20 years and unfortunately, it will be my last. I wish I had read the reviews before mentioning it to him as I would have gone somewhere else. The reviews are straightforward. There were 3-4 cars in line ahead of me and so we waited a minimum of 10 minutes before placing our order. When we did, it was a challenge for the drive thru attendant to hear me. My 7 year old thought it was funny that I had to keep repeating myself. I asked him if he thought they were just messing about and he said yes maybe. I repeated my order clearly at least 3 times. We ordered two cheeseburgers combos and a cherry limeade. The best part of the order was the ice that I didn't even eat/chew. The tater tots were cold and cooked in old oil. It looked like they were made yesterday and heated in a microwave. The burger was yuck. I had one bite and threw the rest away. My son enjoyed the cherry limeade so that's a positive. Outside of the drink, I can't note any positive takeaways from this experience. I would not recommend dining at this establishment. read more

Would give a zero. Found a foreign substance in a burger and brought it back. Manager on duty was a guy - probably fired or quit by now because this was a while ago. Actually hes probably still there because let's face it - what else is he going to get...He was the most unprofessional POS I've ever come across in a paying job. No doubt upset with his lot in life but whatever. Never went back - haven't gone to a Sonic since. Not a huge loss of course, but you'll want to avoid this specific location. read more

Place is run down . Floors are greasey. Building signage faded Nd material torn.i ordered a shake and it was hard as a rock.

We arrived at 9:00 PM with four children, excited to get ice cream and enjoy a treat together. Instead of a friendly greeting, we were met with an eye-roll and the words: "We finna close the lobby." Trying to give the benefit of the doubt, we kindly asked, "What time does the lobby close?" In the most unprofessional, dismissive tone, she responded: "9:30, but we finna close early." Not only was it completely uncalled for to turn away paying customers 30 minutes before the posted closing time, but the attitude was beyond rude. This wasn't just bad service, it was a flat-out display of laziness and disregard for customers. As we walked out, two other gentlemen attempted to go inside, only to find the doors already locked, further proving they were intentionally closing early, with no care for the customers they were pushing away. When people choose to spend their money somewhere, they expect at the very least basic courtesy and for the business to operate during their advertised hours. We got neither. This location should seriously rethink who they have representing their brand, because tonight was embarrassing for Sonic as a whole. Pathetic. read more

Absolute WORST!!! The listed hours show this location closes at midnight. We placed an online order at 10:53 pm and on the app it said our order would be ready about 10:59. We pulled in and parked in one of the mobile order stalls and checked in on the app with my stall number. It responded and said that someone would be out soon. At 11:20, 21 minutes after our food was due, one of the people in our car went up to the door and saw a sign that we had not noticed before from our position in the lot, saying that only the drive through was open. She walked to the drive thru and was ignored for a few minutes then after banging on the window a woman responded and told her the lobby closed at 10 and we had to pull in to the drive thru window to pick up our food that had been sitting there. So I pulled around and the woman was rude and very dismissive. She told me again that the lobby was closed and I said the app didn't say that, it said they would be out in a few minutes. She shrugged and said "I can't control what the app says". At this point our food had been sitting on the counter waiting to be picked up for 30 minutes. Needless to say it was cold and disgusting. When you arrive you check in and put in the stall number where you are parked so they KNEW we were there. Also, one of the employees came out the door on the side of the building where we were parked, he stood there a few minutes then went back in. When he first walked out he looked at us then turned around and faced the building, almost like he was smoking a cigarette maybe. I KNOW he saw us waiting and he didn't bother to come over and tell us that the lobby was closed. They KNEW we were out there but didn't care and left our food sitting there then acted like they were bothered by us. This is our second visit to this location and it will be our last as both were bad experiences, the last being the worst. I want to again state the lady in the drive thru had a really bad attitude. *As a side note, while we were waiting we discussed that we wouldn't want our kids coming outside to deliver food to vehicles that late at night, so we understand the safety aspect of only having the drive thru open at that hour. BUT THE APP NEEDS TO LET PEOPLE KNOW THIS! read more

Deserves 0 stars but have to give one to make this review. Place is not healthy, I would stay away. Staff is unmotivated, un-uniformed and distracted. Floors are absolutely disgusting, it smells of old food and dirty oil. Ordered a lemonade for my kids and had to return because it tasted moldy. My wife told them to try it themselves and to not serve it because it will literally make someone sick. Doors look like coal miners have been walking in and out without washing their hands. We will never be back. Corporate and health inspectors need to get in there asap! read more

Shoes stick to the floor in the dining area, floor is kitchen food prep area filthy! No pride at all for the manager or the employees. When we got there no one was there and employees were sitting at tables on their phones! Never eating there again! read more

Always something weird with this place. System down, grills broken, Fryer don't work good. Anything to get out of working

Has to be the worst customer service I've ever come across, slowest workers on the planet as if they are cooking a 12 oz waygu filet mignon

First time at sonic. Drove up to the menu board. Ordered. Food was delivered to our vehicle. Couple of chicken sandwiches and some jalapeño poppers. Cherry limeade to wash it all down. Good food. Service ok. Will eat here again. read more

Sonic Drive-In - Menu boards - Burgers Near Me - Parrish, Florida

Sonic Management, this restaurant can not get it together for anything good to eat. I gave the Parrish location another chance today. It will absolutely be my last. Corporate, shame on you for not coming to this location and helping guide the employees to put out decent edible food. This use to be a very busy restaurant, and I can see why it is NOT any longer. Today I stopped in for a quick lunch. The hot dog meal. I had planned to eat inside until they brought my meal in a paper bag. I reached in for the fries, but they were hard and not even warm. To eat them I would need dental work. I tossed them in the trash before leaving the restaurant. I took the hot dog & soda home. The hot dog, looked as though they threw the bun on the floor and walked on it first. The hot dog was squished in the paper holder. I had to cut it up with a knife and eat it with a fork! Corporate, your employees HAVE TO KNOW, when fries ate sitting there too long. Throw the dang things out! I live close to this location, sorry, I will NOT be going back. If your manager can't manage, then fire them. read more

One star is too much, dirty inside the floor was so dirty that you shoes will sticky when walking on it, the service was slow and the manager was just talking with a friend and not caring about a thing. I ask for condiments and I had to wait for some relish. Bad bad place , poor management and poor place read more

Third update: Ordered a few items via the Sonic App and when I checked in at a stall (kiosk), I ended up waiting 35 to 40 minutes for my order! Something to think of if you are pressed for time, such as work. Don't give me short staffing as an excuse - if you cannot run a Sonic with the right amount of staff shut the restaurant down! read more

If I could give this location no stars I would! They always say three strikes and your out, well they're out! Tonight's order was 100% wrong! How do you mess up every single time. read more

ZERO stars!!! I'm Here at 10am and no one answers the drive thru and the doors are locked! According to the website they open at 6am‍. They supposedly obtained new management. Not for the betterment of the business read more

Almost a year coming to tHis restaurant. And I have to agree with other Yelpers. The staff here despite their good intentions, just doesn't get the service speed any quicker. I'm a order ahead Kidd's guy using Sonics Mobile app and each and ever time I order while at the stall I have to hit the call button to let them know I'm here. It's a good system, but still has some kinks. But have to say the food I haven't had major concerns with. read more

Sonic Drive-In - Lunchtime - Burgers Near Me - Parrish, Florida

This is the worst Sonic I've ever been to and probably the slowest fast food place I've ever been to. Every single time I come I sit in the drive thru or in a spot for at least 15 minutes. Almost every person working is a teenager and they don't seem to have any leadership. I'm sitting in the drive thru writing this as I've been sitting here with no one in line for 12 minutes now. I realize it's fast food, so my expectations are not very high and they still never met. Update. Gave them another chance. They are still the worst. Ordered food through the app to avoid waiting. Currently up to 30 minutes and still waiting. I'd leave but I already paid for my food. read more

Asked for a chicken sandwich with no pickles and light mayo and ended up with just chicken and bread.

Put in mobile order at 2:15p for 2:30p pick up. Arrived and checked in at 2:29p. At 2:45p we went in and found our order sitting on the counter cold . Terrible service and the food was cold and the cheese sticks had the cheese sticks had the cheese running out. read more

I've never been to a sonic that never has it together like this one. Always out of something, never enough staff. The only way a business like this gets it wrong every time is if it's a top down problem. read more

Terrible attitude and service ! I was trying to order a kids corn dog and the lady asked me what size drink and tater tot I told her one with the kids meal ... she said we don't have a meal for the corn dog . I told her it was on the menu and she caught an attitude . I left because her attitude was so bad .... sonic deff hired a Karen This sonic is the worst ! Everytime you go it just gets worse . read more

AVOID AT ALL COSTS! I would give 0 or negative - stars if I could!!! This is by far the most horrendous Sonic I have ever been too. Got attitude from the ordering lady for ordering items from the menu. Then they didn't even get our order right! Waited 10 mins after pressing the button and no one even bothered to answer so had to go inside, where even when you are staring at their fucking faces you can't even get a simple sorry for their screw ups! And they cannot get their shit together. We had half our order missing that we PAID FOR. didn't even give us forks or straws. How the hell is this location still open?!?! It needs to be closed permanently that's how bad it is. read more

One star because I can't give 0 for over 30 minutes waiting in the drive thru. Should've gotten out of the line but I'd already invested 20 minutes. Wanted to see how long it would actually take. read more

HORRIBLE! HORRIBLE! HORRIBLE! Everything is horrible! The service is some of the worst I've ever had (even worst than the crappy Burger King next door) but what's even worst is the food. It's cold and weird tasting. Weird as in an off putting taste I can't even describe with words. The lettuce on the burger is always old and mushy. I don't trust the people who work here nor the food they serve. Stay safe, folks! By groceries at Publix and cook at home or drive down the road somewhere else. read more

Great customer service, fresh food & delicious ice cream.

We tried it again today and it went poorly again. We ordered two hot dogs with mustard and relish and two Cokes. After 20 minutes they brought out two hot dogs with onions and mustard. On the receipt it listed no onions. How hard can it be to get it right. The last time the order took so long we had to go inside to finally get our food. Bad training probably. read more

I ordered a burger late 2 nights ago and when I bit into it...it just didn't taste right so I only hate half, because it tasted off. Without going into too much detail it messed up my stomach for 3 days. Not cool. Typically I love sonic but food poisoning should not be on the menu here. read more

Every time I come here it takes forever to get my food. I'm currently sitting in the drive through waiting for them to bring my food. It's been a little over 20 minutes sense I've paid. There not even anyone in the line just me read more

Do your self a favor and DO NOT go to this Sonic! Always a long wait and NEVER get your order right.

I would have rated this restaurant a "0" if that was an option. Absolutely the worst fast food customer service I have ever experienced. We ordered 2 slushes, 1 milkshake and a Limeade on the app while parked in the sonic lot. There was only one car in the drive-thru and 1 person in the lobby. After waiting for 15 mins., I had to finally go in and see what the problem. There were 6 employees in there and none of them seemed to know what to do! The customer in the lobby couldn't get someone to take his order! Two people asked me what I had ordered - it took another 8 minutes inside to get 4 drinks! Whoever owns this franchise needs to sell it to someone who cares. read more
