This location gets 5 STARS. Sonic gets NONE. Sonic decided to close this location and there are no other locations within miles of this one.

Fantastic service. Our order had some confusion due to something misheard over the intercom. The general manager took the initiative to double check, apologize for the error, refund us and gave us two drinks complimentary. GM went above and beyond and we really appreciated it.

It was late, but the 2 guys who prepared our shakes were SO VERY polite & friendly. I wish they could read just how much they impressed me with their kindness!

Went here on may the 7th, i had a very positive interaction with a carhop named Emil. He was very cordial and personable, explained that my food would take longer but it would be fresh! I sincerely appreciate people who take their job seriously. I have had prior experiences here that were sub par or down right bad. But would definitely come back because it is the closest location to me and because of Emil's work ethic and service. Thanks!

I ordered a double cheeseburger and got a single patty. This is the first time this has happened. How can this be corrected. Its too late to go back and no one answered the phone when I called back. 8:20 to 8:30pm and order thru app.

I rushed to sonic right before 11am to get the drink special. I was told the .99 cent drink stops at 10am. 🤔 I had to show them on Google it says 11am. I also said other locations said the same. I was disappointed but I finally got my drink. So I gave them 3 stars for not keeping up with the specials.

Just got home from Sonic. Ordered #13 Country Basket with onion rings and a diet coke. Plus an order of tater tots extra crispy. What I got was a over cooked Chicken Fried steak - almost burnt and stale tots. Will not be going back anytime soon.

Came to this location due to the closure of the one on Wirt, which came from nowhere near as I can tell. The service was decent. Took a long time for what was seemingly zero business. The order process was strange as well. They closed the order out at least 6 minutes before I actually received the food. The menu changed to asking me what I'd like to order all over again. Guess they were pushing to reduce their wait time average.

The staff was excellent service excellent but the hamburger patties were almost see threw unfortunately but overall food was pretty good and a pretty good tasting but the hamburger meat patties were not patties this was more or less a fried meat spread thin calling itself Angus beef the question here is "where's the beef"This was literally the smallest hamburger patties I have ever seen ordered a smash burger it's called the most expensive double cheeseburger I could order to me honestly the only thing smashed on this burger was the meat straight out of the hamburger

Tried to make this not public but there was no straightforward way to contact through the site. This is the second time it's happened, can a manager or someone from corporate train people on how to mix a Sonic Blast please? Look at it, more than half of it is just straight ice cream. Also I don't know if things have changed in the last 10-15 years, but they definitely used to have whipped cream and a cherry and also both times they did neither and insisted that they use whipped cream on shakes, not Sonic Blasts. It sounds nitpicky, but if you're charging like $5 for a small then at least make it correctly and not make your customers feel like they're being scammed. This alone will keep me from spending more than $2 on anything from a Sonic again. Also there was no one else in the drive thru or anywhere else at the time of our visit, so it's not like they had a rush to deal with in making these.

Unfortunately, because I live in the area, this is the closest one to me. What I know for SURE is that their customer service is almost non existent. They are extremely rude .

**UPDATE: I've given this location so many chances but it just keeps disappointing. Unless you've got 30+ minutes to waste waiting, don't bother. I thought ordering ahead on the app would help shorten my wait time, bit it doesn't. They really need more than one person as carhop, especially around lunchtime. Time to find a new location or another fast food chain. *Update: Ordered two fountain drinks on the app and had to wait over 15 minutes after arriving to receive my drinks. There wasn't an over abundance of guests to explain such a long delay. While waiting I watched as two employees retrieved a dog in the parking lot and brought it to the front of the restaurant. Very disappointing to witness when patrons are waiting. Pressed the red button and never received a response. Someone that had just started her shift saw me waiting and asked if I needed help and I'm very grateful to her. She even had them send my daughter and I a couple cups of ice cream as an apology. Frozen lemonade is my FAVORITE! Can't beat the price for Happy Hour drinks either. Staff is nice enough and serve in an average amount of time.

11 am on Sunday only 3 cars and stilled waited 20+ mins for a chicken basket, peppers, and cheese sticks. They could not even get my drink right. No ice how hard is that. also came one day when it was raining and they refused to serve me. This place is total garbage and should not even be allowed open as a franchise.

This location is permanently closed, no idea who is allegedly confirming the business hours because it's clear from the outside there are no tables or anything inside. Wasted time and gas, real unhappy with Sonic rn.

Never received my order. This is the second time it's happened and I don't like to leave negative reviews. Unfortunately I have to escalate this now because even phone calls were unanswered and I lost money 2 times.

What is wrong with your employees? Why would you put a hot dog with toppings In a bag standing straight up so now the toppings are all over the place and everything. And then the employee was not that nice. I'm sorry you don't like your job. Go get another one if you don't like your job but I don't understand why you have to treat other people the way you do because you're miserable

I placed an order online and it was totally wrong. In addition, it took a long time for my order to be delivered even though there was no line in the drive and was only one other car waiting at a stall. I ordered a 4 count mozzarella cheese sticks, Jr breakfast burrito and a medium diet dr pepper. I didn't receive my drink. I received a small and once I drove off I realized I had received 3 orders of cheese sticks. Never will stop here again.

Probably the worst sonic I've ever ordered from. Food took almost an hour, double burgers were only one patty, the slushie was the wrong flavor and the blast was only half filled in the cup. Go to another location.

People working here didn’t seem to have a care in the world. I imagine they just poured the tots I ordered into the bag with the spoonful of grease they were fried in. The cup the tots came in had STANDING oil in the bottom. Grease all in my car and all over my clothes.

I was told to come to the front door after ordering online was not great because all the other sonics bring the food to you at the speaker box but it would not alow me to arive in the app so i go to the door and these 2 the spanish guy and the black dude in the back I was waving at them and they just ignored me when I waved to them the Spanish dude just flung his arm and ignored the black dude thought it was cute doing a little dance and also ignored me finally the lady that told me to come to the front door finally came 5 minuits later and it took them 10 minuits to make my food definitely the worst sonic I've ever been to never coming back here. again the food was not hot so it either sat there or they did not make it fresh total of 15 minuit wait before i got my food .... the adress of this location is 5195 w 34th st, houston, tx 77092

I really got a breakfast sandwich with half the sausage on it and old tater tots . The few times I’ve come in the morning the older Hispanic lady is always so rude like she doesn’t want to take my order. How would she feel if her order was like this.
