Ordered my son an order of large mozzarella sticks and this is what his order looked like only one of the mozzarella sticks had cheese in it. read more

Sonic Drive-In - Fast Food Near Me - Bakersfield, California

We wanted to get a snack today so we decided to stop by sonic. I ordered mozzarella sticks. And it came one giant mozzarella stick. The quality control for this is absolutely horrendous. There's no way that should've been sold. The drive-through has several potholes in it too. They need to get that fixed. It would help the look of the whole restaurant. There's nowhere to dine inside. It's only a drive-through. The dining area outside was clean. read more

Food was good, surprisingly, haha! I really don't care for Sonic food but I was so impressed with the guy who served us. 8am on a Monday 10/13/25. The location was dead, no lines, great! Our food took a little bit longer but the guy was by himself doing everything. Inspite of that, he served us respectfully, professional, and the food was hot, fresh and tasted good. Thank you Sonic drive-thru guy. However, he gave us a weird lid that didn't fit the coffee cup i ordered but he did warn us, and of course, a few feet driving away from the window, we already spilled the coffee, but that was because the pavement around the store was very uneven. Anyway, good job again to our server! read more

I always come here and seem to find the bag without my dipping sauce. When coming throw they are respectful but I find it they forget to put the right sauce or get the orders wrong at times. Once you catch that you don't have your sauce they do give them to you nicely. I find it really annoying to have to drive back to the place once I leave the drive in . read more

I pulled into one of the parking spots at 3:4/ pm and pushed the button and waited. After waiting pushed the button again and continued to wait for someone to take my order. After pushing the bus 3rd time I got tired of waiting and drove to the window. The person at the window ask was I the one waiting in parking spot 12 when I confirmed that I was she stated that the microphone was not working a d so.e9 e had torn off the note. Stated t h at someone could have let me know especially the person who delivered food to other cars or she could have opened the window and told me that it was noted working especially since she looked directly at me several times. When I finally went through the drve thru she was going to charge me the full price. When I srated that it is not my fault that the microphone is broken. That Someone could have let me know. Or better yet put the dam out of order sign back up. read more

First of all, there is nothing fast about sonic. Then I got in line to get a quick dinner, unfortunately the car in front of me had a friend here, an employee who stood and talked to her in line rather than let her go up and put in her order. It is taking me now almost 20 minutes to get through this line, the employees are extremely rude, I will never come here again! The photo is of the license plate of the car in front of me that was rude and want to just talked to her friend and put in her order. read more

Delano Sonics Horrible drive thru experience... long wait Lack of customer service Every-time I go there I'd wait over 35mins for a small order. Ridiculous! That's why my family and I will never step foot in this place read more

My review would take 10 pages. Literally messed up every single step of the process. Ordering. Getting order wrong. Correcting order. Final produce. Just atrocious every step of the way. I'll just drop a picture of the cheesy double stack burger I. All it's horrendous underwhelming glory. This place is absolutely awful. read more

Decent Sonic where you can order in your parked car (and someone will bring the order out to you) or through the drive-thru. Came on a late night and the ordering process was very straightforward. The wait wasn't too bad either, especially given that there was a decent drive-thru line. The food itself was average at best, but I assume what to expect from Sonic. read more

Boycott this sonic in the 08 they're horrible, service was shitty, they put food together crappy, then hands me all my stuff in a rush almost drops my food, to then say ok you can go now..... .....ummm no not without my credit card, she then tried to tell me she gave it to me, I said ummmm no. .....then apologizes and says it's being ran in the back.....wtf for??? Finally gives it to me and throws my receipt away.....I said excuse me can I get my receipt please, she was irritated and printed it and tossed it at me. Are you serious...... I asked y my card was taken to the back if they have a machine up front that prints and works, and she closes the window on me!!!! I WILL NEVER COME BACK...FUCK THIS PLACE!!!! DESERVES NO STARS AT ALL!!!!! read more

The best thing I can say is the car hop was friendly and pleasant. We stopped for an early lunch on the way north. We ordered a cheesy pretzel dog, grilled chicken wrap and dunked buffalo chicken sandwich. Initially they got our order wrong, bringing the wrong item and over charging us. On the whole the food was not too good. We could not taste the hot dog in the pretzel. The grilled chicken wrap was flavorless and the chicken was rubbery. The chicken in the sandwich was undercooked. The custard concrete shakes tasted ok but were not any different than any other shake. I hope the quality of the food at this sonic does not reflect the quality of them all. read more

It's fine in a pinch. People are nice but felt a bit scuzzy. Unfortunately in a sketchy neighborhood.

Best food in town when the employees get the order correct fast service good drinks .

Today I was looking for a treat for my daughter who just got shots for kindergarten. We stopped here and I asked her what she wants. Of course she sees the advertisement for the Sour Patch Float and has to have it. She is a fan of all the components so it has to be food right. When I handed it to her she took a drink and her eyes lit up. She said it was so delicious but she wanted the straw and the spoon so she could drink and then eat the ice cream. As I'm driving home I am overhearing her say things like come to mama and come here my precious. A little concerned but I am guessing she likes it. I ask for a sip and it's a watermelon slush with ice cream and sour Patch kids pieces. It's a little to sour for me but it's flavorful and it's definitely something sour Patch kids fans would love. It's cold, refreshing, sweet and sour. Im good with my large coke zero with extra ice though, she can have all the fun drinks. The service was quick and people were pleasant. read more

If I could give this place 0 stars I would. Employees are so rude rushed me through my order. They asked if I had anything else I responded yes and they cut me off and told me my total and to drive up. At the window they seemed very irritated and like they didn't want to be there. Very rude when I reminded them that my chicken sandwhich was plain because she just kept cutting me off when I was ordering. They definitely need to re staff because their workers were acting like they are on drugs read more

Employees should all be fired. Waited 30 minutes for a kids meal and nothing else. Asked them 15min in if they forgot the order they said they are waiting for it to cook still. We're talking 2 strips and some tots. Also watched 8 cars go by in the drive thru. The whole team should be replaced. I'm sure this is a direct reflection on the management. read more

Had such great fresh hot food and great fast friendly service on 11/5/22 approx 1:00. Very impressed with this sonic, restored our faith in this fast food chain as other locations are extremely lacking. Could not have been any better! Well done! read more

This place is a disaster. No ice cream ?!?! But half of the menu is shakes!!!! Kinda rude, took forever to order, and waited extremely long for a simple burger.... Would not recommend read more

Worst Sonic on the planet!! Don't ever go there. I complained to the corporate office three times about this location and my unfortunate experience and they never responded. read more

Waited for food for 30 minutes and it never came. We asked staff and they said they weren't gonna make it so we had to leave without food. Heard screaming from inside establishment. Not sure what's happening? read more

Very in need of updating orders we're not correct for any of us. We had 10 people and no orders we're right.

Ordered chili cheese fries and they were stale. Looks like they were under a heat lamp for a couple hours. Little to no toppings in my blast either. read more

The absolute slowest service. I didn't see an "adult" in the whole place, it looked like several high school kids with no guidance. I waited in my car for over 20 mins and saw 2 orders get sent back from obviously being made incorrectly and then the attendants drink them in the kitchen while not rushing to remake those incorrect orders. I had to yell to get a young mans attention and ask about our food to even get service. And when our order did arrive it was incorrect. They brought me half of another persons order. I will not go back. Don't waist your time. By the time we were done I waisted over half an hour there. read more

Can't go wrong with their tots and chicken strips. Love their drink selections. Staff is always friendly and our food has always been hot.

Good solid Sonic. Service and food. Prices here are a bit higher (California that is). I'll be back. read more

Why is this place chronicle under staffed always? What time if ever do they have the car hop here? You push the button no one answers. The only reason they get one star is because the food is decent when it's done correctly. I feel bad the the staff they do have read more

Went to this location during the evening in Labor Day. Pulled up into a stall and pushed the button. The light timed out and we pushed the button three more times.... 15 minutes later no response. Pulled into the drive thru lane... big mistake.... Very slow.... Understaffed??? read more

Ugh! Out of everything! Who doesn't have Oreos when most your desert menu consists of Oreos. Go to the grocery store down the street? Lame. Super lame. Place is pretty dirty too. Such a downer for desert! Not like he days 21 years ago when I worked for sonic! read more

The speaker system at the car hop is so piercing it made the conversation with the cashier very unpleasant and deafening so much so I was very very uncomfortable. Definatley need to adjust that volume. Then when I went to use their card swiper, it read as "invalid". I advised them their system was not authorizing my card, although I have enough funds in my account. They swiped my card indoors instead to see if it would process. It did. What should have taken less than 10 minutes from start to finish took 30 minutes because my order was inaccurate, although the receipt clearly showed my order had been rung up correctly. My order: The garlic Parmesan wings were barely coated with the garlic sauce and tasted more like chicken without sauce. The buffalo boneless were thoroughly coated and tasted good. The manager was very apologetic, fixed the order and threw in a free 32 oz. Slush. However, he forgot to communicate that to the girl that delievered my correct order. So all in all, I would say not a typical service for Sonic, at least not from my experience. Maybe I hit a shift change. Just glad my order is complete. I am giving it two stars this time, however, if want to say that it is based entirely on this visit. I will still revisit the location and try again. read more

Umm... not certain if the staff that helped me was high or just that incompetent... I had to repeat my order atleast 10 times... large watermelon slush... not difficult you would assume... tell me why I didn't even get that! I know I sound like a raging lunatic! An I'm not I'm just in that much disbelief that I just had this kind of service! They are normally great an quick. Today.... I'm not sure what happened... but they need to stop read more

Took numerous attempts of the employee to get our order right. Payment slot was broken. Once food was received sauce was forgotten and then denied. No complaints about the food however just poor customer service and payment issue. read more

The food and drink are the same at any other Sonic drive through, however the service is slow at this location. I waited 40 minutes for two milkshakes. Now, that is ridiculous. read more

This is my favorite ice tea stop ! Route 44 ice tea , extra ice and lemon :-) yes please!!! The shakes are pretty tasty too!! I'm not big on this type of food , but must admit the occasional onion ring or chili cheese tots feeds my junk food cravings. They of course have the happy hour between 2-4 unfortunately my work hours make this impossible to enjoy , but hey the weekends I'm on it !! My only reason for not adding a 5th star is the drive ups , seems in the years I've been going a good amount of them don't always work . Especially the payment option ... That gets a star minus. I still love sonic though ! read more

Hello people. This sonic had the absolute worst food in Bakersfield. They proved that several times. Good drinks. Horrible food I literally know people that has upchucked followinf first bite. So bad I took time to get on Yelp and wright this review.. (please switch your whole menu) read more

Worst service I have received at this location.... Both employees were very rude... The men that took our order was so unprofessional and had a bad attitude.. Then we get to the window and the lady literally just threw our food bag into my boyfriend hands and just slammed the window shut without saying have a nice day or did you need any sauce, nothing. We were so confuse and didn't know if that was it or if we were waiting on something so I checked the bag and it was all there.. These morning employees need to learn about proper customer service and hospitality.... 07/26/2020 was there around 9:00-9:20 read more

If I could give zero stars I would. My husband just spent 53 minutes in the drive thru and was only behind 3 cars. What is going on here? All he got was 2 drinks, a pretzel, and a mediocre burger. Don't ever go here. The biggest waste of time. The employees obviously don't care about anyone else's time and aren't being held to any kind of standards. read more

I shouldn't have even given 1 star....placed my order got home everything was cold. tator tots weren't cooked all the way, the quarter lb. chili dog wasn't even cooked. barely warm..i had to put the tator tots in my air fryer..I ordered a chicken fried chicken sandwich and got a smaller chicken tender one. The phone number listed on website and my sales receipt are the same which btw is out of order. tired of being burnt in Bakersfield. read more
