I ordered food for this Sonic on Cary St and it was awful. The size of the fries was small for a medium order and they were cold. The double cheeseburger was cold, had a funny taste and didn’t taste fresh. The fries didn’t taste fresh either. Will never order them from again. Food: 1

You can always count on us aiming for hot, fresh meals made right, Jackie. We fell short here with your burger and fry order, and local store leadership will ensure our kitchen team reviews prep standards.

This was one of the worst eating out experiences I’ve ever had. The staff was extremely hostile and unwelcoming while the food was overpriced and tasteless. This was my first time in Sonic drive-in chains so I tried to advise with the waiter/cashier who was taking my order. Accepting his recommendation I ordered #5 meal combo from the menu. Let alone that the already made old burger was priced at $8,5 as a separate item, and the combo was bumping this number to a whooping $12, the final price I was charged somehow came to add up to an unthinkable & unbelievable $17. I believe in other circumstances I would have considered twice before spending $17 in a fast food chain for a breakfast meal, however, the staff hostility seemed almost intentionally designed and put in place to intimidate the customers and pressure them into placing an order as fast and rushed as possible. In an attempt to ignore this unpleasant situation and make the best of the rest of my meal experiences I sat by the window and started working on my meal. Shortly, I realized that I forgot to inquire the password for the Wi-Fi, and, upon checking, confirmed that all of the available Wi-Fi-s (of which 3 involved the name of the chain — “sonic”) were password-protected. Long story short, the waiter not only claimed to not know the Wi-Fi password, but also came forward when I was tried to address any other person working there who could potentially help me with my seemingly simple request. This waiter rushed to answer for the rest of the team claiming as if nobody else present knows the password to the Wi-Fi either. I asked whether there was no possible way to find out. The answer was cut and dry “no.” I’ll politely thanked him and went back to my seat. Before leaving I tried to use the restroom; unsurprisingly, the restrooms had hostile signs abt there not being any public restrooms available nothing that the restrooms are for customers who have already placed their orders. I approached the guy one last time asking him if he wouldn’t mind unlocking the restroom door so I could use it. He unwillingly came and unlocked the restroom door. Overall… what… ‍.
