    Sonic Blast (Oreo Cookie Pieces)
    Shameka C.

    It's fast food but it's still food that I want to enjoy. It's fairly new and two thumbs up for bringing one to the area. I did the drive-thru and they ask if you want to see a menu. I am assuming this allows for more one on one interaction in hopes of speed. However, it was not fast paced but the young lady at the window did apologize for the wait. Oh back to the food, I only had a corndog and tots, all freshly cooked and a coke and I did enjoy. Not bad and I will start giving them more of my business since the location is closer. Yep, they get 4 stars for hot, good food and great customer service!!!

    The Sonic in Alera AL is so hot and miss, but mostly miss. Ordered a large sonic blast, and they informed me they no longer sell large ice cream anything. Even though it's still on the menu. Thru act like they just don't care at this location.

    Little Egg on a Breakfast Brioche
    Faye D.

    On Monday November 20. 2022. The stalls weren't working you had to go through the drive thru. I order my food on my Sonic App so I get my deals. However, I couldn't believe the egg they gave me on my Bacon Egg and cheese Brioche and the Sausage Egg and cheese one as well. Look for yourselves. Plus, my Medium Lemonade with peach flavor had very little peach flavor in it. Because usually it's really good and balanced but not today. Also, if you can't give your customers a decent whole egg then closed the store until you have enough supplies just don't up the price and give customers half of egg. I'm very disappointed in Sonic.

    Undercooked spicy chicken slinger
    Keith S.

    Been coming here often since they opened and it's always been good. My wife used the app to order and I went and picked it up- we both work in the area. For some reason we both wanted chicken. I got the chicken club sandwich and she got the spicy chicken slinger. Mine was over cooked with the first bite being dry and stringy with large white chunks of iceberg lettuce throughout. Also their chicken sandwiches are the same size as a chicken biscuit at bojangles. I asked wife how hers was and she said it was undercooked, even pink in the middle. If you have a hankerin' for chicken in Calera there's a Zaxbys and a Chic fil a less than 100 yards from Sonic and a Bojangles about 1/8 mile away. Even a Burger King chicken sandwich would've been better. Usually we love the experience at Sonic but today was an off day for them. The only defense I have for them was it was during the lunch peak and they were crowded as usual, but consistency is key in any business. Service was quick and courteous, but in this case I'd rather them not sacrifice quality for speed. No one expects you to be as fast as chic fil a.

    Stopped by Smiley Brothers for lunch. Nice little restaurant with an old world vibe. Excellent wine…read morechoice, fresh cheese, dry aged ribeyes and fresh cut steaks. We were greeted promptly and took a few minutes to look at the menu. I LOVE roast beef, so it peaked my interest. My wife chose the Smiley burger. We placed our order and grabbed a seat. Place was quiet even though it was probably 75% full for lunch. Roast beef was served hot in toasted sour dough. Cheddar, tomato, lettuce and horseradish topped the generous portion of roast beef. Bread was crisp and the beef was hot and juicy. Horseradish gave a nice tangy flavor. My wife's Smiley burger was hand patted. Juicy and perfectly cooked. Bun was soft inside and nicely toasted in the outside. Bread and butter pickles, onion, tomato and lettuce topped it off. But the star of the show were the fries cooked in beef tallow!! Hot and salty, crispy and a deep flavor. I would come back just for the fries. Although a little bit pricey for lunch, it was excellent! Staff were friendly and attentive! Would highly recommend and will definitely be back! Thanks for an awesome lunch and excellent experience!

    Smiley's is a specialty butcher shop, restaurant and deli that I heard about from someone. They…read moresaid they had one of the best burgers so I went to give it a try. This place was packed for lunch. The sandwiches I saw being made looked delicious. The Smiley cheeseburger was $15.95 and to add fries and soda was $6.95 so almost $25 for a burger combo. The burger was good. It tasted like it was cooked in a cast iron skillet and the fries were shoestring fries. That is my least favorite fry but the taste was really good. The staff was nice and was very efficient in how they ran everything. I definitely wanna come back and try a deli sandwich

    I've been meaning to try this place ever since it opened up. I believe it's been a few months ago…read more I've read the reviews and they've kind of been all over the place so I thought I would form my own opinion and go have some brunch on a nice Sunday. If you're familiar, it's in the Old Main St., Tavern location in Montevallo. Several of the employees kept saying how busy it was there was two large parties that were there and then some other tables. There was no wait to be sat. Someone came and took our orders, but it took a few more minutes for someone to come back to take our order, but we were not in a rush, so that was no problem. Decided to get brunch i got the French toast, which was very delicious. It comes with bacon. My brunch date decided to get the shrimp and grits. We also got an appetizer of onion rings, goat cheese, and fried green tomatoes. The fried goat cheese was my favorite. It came with a lemon blueberry aïoli sauce. I ended up using the rum sauce. It tasted better to me. The fried green tomatoes were very delicious. I believe they do a bottomless mimosa, but I decided just to get a sprite. Unfortunately, unfortunately, the server was not very attentive with filling up our drinks. I think they were shortstaffed. I'll definitely be back for either their lunch or dinner because that menu looked good as well. There is a lot of cool decor on the walls and I believe they do karaoke on the weekends.

    This place is delicious. The atmosphere and decor is very nice but not snobbish. We went there for…read morebrunch and definitely Enjoyed it. I had the crab cakes with brussels sprouts and grits. My son had French toast with bacon and my hubby had an omelette with grits and bacon. The coffee was great and the service was exceptional. We will definitely be back to try dinner and cocktails.
