I'm from MI. I lived in TN for 4 yrs about 30 yrs ago. I was so excited to see a Sonic again. -Nope. Not anymore. Idk if I was just really young and dumb or they were actually decent back then... but holy crap- literally. $23 for 2 orders of greasy, cold fries & 2 burgers filled with nasty, veiny things (look really close at that next Sonic 'hamburger' you get.) I mean, I get it. It's junk food but even McDonalds can hide the cow guts better. And honestly, you couldn't understand one word from the kid at the drive-thru who mumbled 500 miles an hour at me through the speaker. Maybe they tried to warn me. No clue. As soon as I saw the big old veins hanging out of my 'hamburger' it was over for me. Idk maybe it's just me, but I like my junk in my junk food hidden really, really well. I just can't do it Sonic... it's over. read more

Food very Bland. People nice. Cashier working hard. But the food was still Bland. Tell it like it is. JH read more

The location on Garners Ferry Road in Columbia SC is slow. Staff is very unfriendly. I love tater tots and every time I go there I have to take them back even after asking for hot & fresh when I place my order. They really need a new leader.....!! read more

After years and years if hearing bout this chain as well as their constant commercials.... I finally got to try one out. Passed up on the Waffle House, so I was expecting something at least decent when I came here after a night of drinking at the five points downtown. I needed some tasty junk food to soak up the fun juice my belly. The place is huge so it can to handle the large amount of cars that can pull in. We came around 330am so the drive thru was the only portion open at the time. Got the #7 which was your choice of 2 dogs, a side, and a drink all for under $8!! Chose the Coney w/ onions, Chicago, Tots (couldn't pass these up!!), and a diet soda. After hearing all the rave, I probably should have tried one of their crazy drinks combos, but I'm a simple guy when it cone to drinks so whatever. Thhe food is fast, cheap, and tasty! Nothing over the top about it, large portions for the price. Tater tots were crispy without being super greasy, and the dogs were decent in size and topping, The Chicago dog didn't have the sesame bun or celery salt, but the late night drunken hungers means I don't really care. I would come back for a snack or something, it would a been cool to do the bell hop thing cause it doesn't really exist back in Cali. read more

The women's bathroom was disgusting. The toilet didn't flush properly and the floor was wet with slime of a disgusting origin. The ketchup packets, given only on request, were sticky with I don't even want to guess what. My burger was so overcooked I puked half the night after I got home. My wife got a combo and ordered a strawberry lemonade as her drink. The extra charge above the combo price was $1.60 for the drink, but we were given no warning, just charged. Noticed extra charge when I got home. We ate inside and had to wipe the table crumbs off ourselves. This was on Aug. 4, 2020 at 16:51:59. Needless to say, we're never returning to this Sonic. Others we have gone to have been better. Who knew quality could vary so drastically? read more

I have been a fan of Sonic for a long time. This place serves hamburgers, hotdogs, chicken and ice creme to calm your cravings. Staff is always polite and helpful. I also love their Mozzarella sticks! Simple, fast, fun and delicious. read more

Drive through speed at lunch time was average for a Sonic. Not too fast, not overly slow either. I experienced friendly service. Check them out during happy hour 2-4pm for half price drinks. read more

The wait time is a bit long but the drinks are ok. The burgers are really good. The area doesn't look very nice, looks a bit scary.

This place is always friendly. The drive thru is always quick even when there is a lot of people. They have never forgotten to put any food in the bag like most other fast food places. read more

Sonic Drive-In - Sonic's sign - Burgers Near Me - West Columbia, South Carolina

The location for the Sonic is pretty bad. If you want to turn left out of the lot, I would recommend just not doing that. I hit it up on the way back to Charleston recently and had to wait a little bit before I got my sandwich. The sandwich was pretty good, but at some point while eating it, I found a small yellow square that reminded me of tab sticker I would put on a piece of paper. I couldn't figure out what it was. At first, I thought it was an onion peel, but I realized it wasn't. I know things happen, but it's always disappointing when you find a foreign object in your food. read more

I usually go to Sonic on Augusta Hwy for breakfast but today I went at 2:10 after standard lunchtime. I am asked on a continual basis to pull down to #1 park space. Today there was someone already in Park #1. Anyway that doesn't matter. Does Sonic not understand the concept of a fast food drive thru? If folks are in a hurry they choose drive thru over sit down. Conversation today: Sonic- may I take your order? Me-a hot dog with just mustard and onions only small onion ring large sprite with extra ice Sonic- was that a plain hot dog? Me- just mustard and onions only. Sonic- does that complete your order Me- did you get the onion ring and drink? Sonic- What size ring? Me- Small onion ring. Sonic- is that all? Me- Did you get the drink? Sonic- No Me- Large Sprite with extra ice. Sonic- Okay $ 6.95 pull forward At the window- hot dog with mustard & onions only, small ring and lg sprite with extra ice. $6.95 Me- gave a $20 got back $13.05 was given my drink Sonic- I am going to ask you to Pull down to Park # 1 Me- There is someone in Park #1. I do not have time for this. Left..... Did enjoy the drink and it only cost me $6.95 Not sure why it takes that long to get a hot dog. They are never even hot when you get them. I guess the onion ring is considered specialty? I have never gotten anything hot there so it is not cooked to order. I know good help is hard to find but...Phylilis is lame... Drive thru should not take as long as a sit down..employees should listen to the order at the speaker and customer shouldn't have to repeat everything 3-4 times. By the time I got to the window my food should have been ready after all the questions I had to go through at the speaker. read more

Never ever ever ever ever get popcorn chicken from any Sonic establishment. It's nothing but hard breading. No meat available for taste. Sorry but this is a negative 5 no star review. Only a one star so it would post read more

If I could give zero stars I would. I ordered my food and asked for a orange soda, when I pulled up to the window they handed me a coke. I let them know it was the wrong soda and asked for orange. When they handed my soda they were laughing I thought nothing of it and went on my way. I started feeling wet and saw that my cup has a deliberate puncture towards the bottom of the cup. It leaked all over my 300 dollar dress and suede jacket. This Sonics is the absolute worst, terrible employees, an atrocious way to run a business. read more

I regularly walk over to get something to eat on my lunch break, my food always comes out very quickly, and the employees are absolutely lovely!! read more

Watched employee wipe my cup and lid with a dirty wet towel. 3 other employees watched her too. That's a nasty health code violation. I asked for another cup. They closed the window. I realized after driving off it was the same cup. Order wrong. Burger was old. The edge was tough and chewy. I've been a fan of Sonic for a very long time. Been coming to this one for breakfast about 6 months. I will never go to this one again. When that many employees don't have food safety training, it's a dirty establishment. read more

This is the worst sonic I've ever been to. EVERY time I go my order is wrong. Additionally, I've been twice when I press the button 5 plus times and no one ever comes so we left. Ridiculous and terrible. Done ever go. read more

Worst service ever. Went through Drive thru only to be pulled up into a parking spot to wait on who knows what because when I got my food it was wrong and not as fresh for as long as I waited. Had to go back through the drive thru to get my shakes which they forgot to bring and instead of being apologetic, the cashier acted annoyed. Get home with food to find that order is STILL wrong. Not even worth going back because I fully believe they wouldn't event fix it. read more

One of the worst Sonics in the area. Waited ten minutes at the window after already paying for my order to be told they aren't serving what I ordered... offered nothing in replacement. Simply voided my ticket and wasn't even going to hand me a void receipt until I asked. Employee at the window was careless about It all and waiting until she was done counting coins to tell me even though someone came and spoke to her about two minutes before she told me. read more

Late night listening to the manager cursing out employees. Rather than elevate he chose to denigrate. Not a manager. Waited 10 minutes. Watched the drama. What a sad place to work with this person as the late manager. read more

Reading other reviews from people who don't seem to know where this place is and think it is somewhere else, I needed to write a real review. I used to work across the street and would sometimes get lunch at the Sonic. After the third time I got a raw hamburger ( cooked on outside, but raw meat on the inside) I gave up doing business with them. I don't seem to have any trouble with other locations, just this one. The drive thru could be faster, but it is comparable to other fast food drive thru. If you want a nice drink or even a shake, they are good at that. read more

I've been over 5 times just for a milkshake and never gotten through the drive through or inside in less than 15 minutes! After 10 minutes in the drive thru line you're asked to pull off to the side to wait on a milkshake? Really? Pitiful. read more

Manager takes food back out of the trash and serves it. The food is overpriced for the quality anyway.

i am alllll for their sonic blasts! i'd choose this location over the closer one in columbia any day. quick and friendly service!
