When they say you don't know what goes on in the restaurant kitchens, today proves that to be correct. I went to Sonic (Lakeshore Monroe Louisiana) placed my order, get to the window and this is what I see, one of the workers had their bottle of body armor beverage sticking in the ice that they give the customers. That order was cancelled quickly. What in...

Sonic Drive-In Covid 19

I go to your sonic in texas city, TX regularly. However, I haven't been in 2 weeks due to your employees not wearing gloves or wearing the mask. I called in 2 weeks ago filed a complaint and did not hear back. So today I decided to go again...hoping the issue had been resolved. To my disbelief no one wore gloves and every single employee had their masks below their noses. I find this unacceptable considering the things going on in the world w covid. Makes me wonder how many times something has been spread from this location.

I buy several bags of ice every week from the Sonic location at Walnut Hill location in Irving Texas. This is the second time I've complained about this. Sonic is known for having SOFT ice. Occasionally I get a bag that's soft. But more often it's hard. Very hard! I don't know why sometimes it's soft but more often hard. Are they letting it melt and...

New buns are terrible. I have stopped buying at sonic because of these tasteless, nasty buns please bring back the original buns!!! I have noticed in valley center, ks. There are fewer cars at sonic, especially during rush hours, and half price burger night. Is a cheaper, tasteless, gluey bun advantageous, when no one buys them? I'm 65 years old, and have...

Sonic Drive-In Menu item chicken sandwich

I went to the Sonic restaurant on Independence Boulevard in Virginia beach, Virginia 23455 store 4766 and ordered a chicken sandwich at the drive through. I was greeted with courtesy I paid for the sandwich and left for home. I was tired and ready to eat and relax. After the first bite, I gagged, I looked at the sandwich and it was not cooked all the way. I was upset and I was tired. The next day I sent Sonic a email with my concern, explaining that I wanted them to know that this could make people sick. And I wanted to alert them.

A couple days later I received a reply apologizing for the mishap and then offering me some free tater tots with my next purchase. I thought "really!"
I tell them about half cooked chicken and they respond with tater tots. I said no thanks. It is a health concern I wanted them to know. I will not return.

Desired outcome: Enforce training in preparing food, especially fryers, a temp must be monitored

I placed an order through the Sonic App for pick up. The total was $48.75. I sent my adult child to pick up the order. When he arrived he was told the icecream machine was not working but they could not refund the portion of the bill for the icecream which was $20.46 plus tax. After waiting for more than 20 minutes for the remainder of the order my son wa...

I came thru the drive up yesterday afternoon they were somewhat busy, when I went to start my order the guy asked me if he could have 5 minutes before taking my order because they were backed up. He apologized over for it after almost 20 minutes of waiting I heard him taking an order for a car that just pulled up. My food was cold and my order was wrong very poor service

I am at sonic and I ordered a drink with my meal and the lady brought my drink out to me and when she handed it to me there was a real LIVE roach, walking around on my lid! I am not exaggerating at all, this was so disgusting and no one did anything about it she took the drink back and went and through it on the ground and was saying how gross it was but never had a manager come talk to me or anything!

Ordered at the Sonic on 39th just east of Rockwell in Bethany, OK. We order two hamburger combos before noticing drinks were not included. At other fast foods drinks are included with combos. We order two small drinks without realizing that your small drinks hold barely a cup of liquid and when filled to the brim with ice, there is practically nothing to...

They have codes for specials. I used one for 4 orders of 1.99 jumbo popcorn chicken. They only let you use it on the buffalo or honey flavor not the original. It is sooo nasty. It makes the chicken soggy and a slightly sweet mild hot. It is really disgusting. Had to throw them in the trash. Tried wiping it off and rinsing it off and nothing worked. Also...

I am an employee of Sonic Drive in and was a little confused why the employees can't eat there while on the clock! Why we can't get a spending budget during the weeks we work! There has been very busy time when I can't get breaks and can't eat! I get headaches and craps from not eating all day. What is your policy on employees having the right to eat at there own work zone then managers do? Thank you

I visited the Sonic Drive in at 30129 SW Boones Ferry Rd, Wilsonville, OR on Friday, October 2nd. My order was what I thought pretty simple. It was a number 1 with tots and a coke and a number 6 with tots and a coke. I also requested two packets of ranch dressing for the tots. When my order arrived I asked the person bringing the order if the ranch was in...
