Fortunately this isn't the only Sonic in town. We were going to another location one night for their shake offer and they said their ice cream wasn't cold enough yet. So we left and came to this location and there were no issues. However, we returned when they had their $1 dog day (All American or Chilli Cheese for $1). It was rather slow to get the order out - which we accept. However, other negatives which affected the review include: 1) Machine screen dead (they should put a pylon to prevent cars going there until fixed). As a result back and forth the staff had to go WITH my credit card. 2) No drive thru garbage (-1 star) - the other locations have that extra long piece that attaches to the garbage can so you don't have to drive up so close. Once you experience it at the other Sonics, it's the only way to fly! 3) My 10y got the Cheesy Bacon Pretzel Dog. Sadly for this location, he is on the ball and when asked how good it was - he said "the bacon was hard". -1 star. Unacceptable IMO. He had the same dog at the Laskin location and there were no issues. Reviews at this location suggest management issues. Someone mentioned that at least this isn't the only Sonic in town. Oh yeah - that was me! PS: Laskin location RULES! http://www.yelp.com/biz/sonic-drive-in-virginia-beach-5#hrid:X48gc3v4O_J3sWRdWZI2RA Visited this location July 23/2013 (99.9% sure .. definitely hot dog day) read more

Literally have been waiting in the drive thru for over 30 min. Guy behind me just left. I will not ever come back to this Sonic. They need new management on down. If you're the owner of this sorry establishment fire all the workers and start fresh from the ground up. read more

Idk how many times I have to go to this location. Get the same person taking my order in drive thru and have to repeat myself about what order I want. The first time I had this girl take my order I asked for a #2 and she's saying "okay a #1" everytime I correct her. Last time I checked 1 and 2 don't sound similar. Same thing happened today. I'm asking for a #2 and I get a number 1 I'm so confused what is going through this lady's head. read more

Don't bother.... cold food, takes forever to get your change and sauce... not worth the wait or money, and I love Sonic...

Sonic has failed me again. I came here at 10 pm and the door was locked (they're supposed to close at 1 am). Tonight I went through the drive through and they told me "the systems are down". Lol okay girl I know good and well y'all just turned them off. She then said "did you still wanna order?".... these people are idiots and unbelievably lazy. Management has no clue they close early and refuse to serve people after 10 when hours are clearly posted on the doors. read more

If I could give this place no stars I would. Good thing I didn't have anything to do. Ordered two shakes through the drive thru and waited 15 minutes just to get told that they ran out of the flavor we ordered. Waited another 10 minutes just to get a shake full of mostly whipped cream. Thanks for reminding me why I hate Sonics. All of them are overrated. Case in point, this place was horrible. read more

Thank you for the side of dirt and hair in my cup of ice tonight. Disgusting! I can only imagine how dirty this store is if even their ice is gross. I've never had a good experience with this Sonic. Order is always wrong. Burned food, cold food. Have literally seen the employees eating, licking their fingers, and then handling people's food without even washing their hands or wearing gloves. Even though this is the closest Sonic to me by quite a bit, I'll go to a different one for now on. read more

Consistently a top performer in the area. Great breakfast. One of the best fast food staffs around! I went through the drive-through today, and the cash register wasn't working for my order. Without missing a beat they just smiled and said looks like it's free today will see you tomorrow. Love this Sonic location. read more

Slow. Very slow. 12 noon, 2 cars parked for car hops. Simple order, no deviations. Cheeseburger, tater tots, cherry limemade. 15 minutes in the drive thru that i was the only person in line. read more

Terrible. Terrible wait time. Terrible food. Just threw away an entire burger. I know it's tough to let stars or reviews be the decision maker but in this case- just throw your money directly in the trash and safe yourself the drive! read more

I grew up on Sonic in the Midwest and was very excited when they started opening on the east coast. That excitement was tempered by the indifferent service I received time and again. This is the closest Sonic to my house, and has always been at least "ok". Until yesterday that is....unless something drastic happens, this place will be out of business in six months. 5 minutes at a drive in spot, no one answers the intercom, yet cars who pulled in after me were served. Gave up and went to drive thru and it took literally another 5 minutes to place an order for 3 drinks! When we finally got them, they were wrong. Top this off with an indifferent manager working the drive thru, and congrats, Sonic people! You just ruined a childhood favorite of mine. There are too many fast food places that WANT my money up the road. So long, old friend, you aren't the sonic I grew up with. read more

By far the slowest service I have ever experienced in my life. Coming up on 15 minutes for 2 drinks (no food). All orders appear to be prepared in the order received so I am waiting on others peoples food to cook in order to get the drinks I paid for. What a damn joke read more

I rarely eat fast food, and this is why. Stopped during a road trip and ordered got Jr cheeseburger, jalapeño sticks (gross) double cheeseburger with onion rings and sweet tea. First time I've had their burger, not impressed, and already regret eating the thin patty that had mayo. Onions rings were kinda sweet which was unexpected and a bit interesting. I figured i'd give it a try since I've never been to a Sonic. Poor first impression though read more

The Sonics in Hampton Roads are all subpar compared to Jacksonville NC Sonics. From the customer service to the stale food to the slow service. Today is the last time any area Sonic will see a penny of my money. They won't care but it's all good. 5 Guys will take my money and give me fresh food in return. Today's visit gave me Ebony taking my order in the DT who had she listened to my order without speaking over me she wouldn't have needed to cop a 'tude when I had to repeat myself 3 times. I was the only one in there at 430pm. That speaks volumes alone. I have barely enough chili and cheese to cover my dog and the only rings are so hard I swear they were made yesterday. Listen to me tapping them in a little vid. I have my original teeth and because I want to keep them I'm tossing these nasty rings where they belong. The garbage!!! Sonic corporate should take a ride to Onslow County and return with some knowledge to share with these sorry Sonics. read more

Honestly worst sonic I've been to, They took 10 minutes to get our order, then they got the order wrong TWICE, Took about 5 more minutes to give us our food, The hotdog didn't even fit in the bun. read more

Tried and true. From delicious BLT's, to a decent selection of covered dogs, and washing it down with any number of thick rich shakes, Sonic Greenbriar is a staple my lunch-time cadre of choices. Quick, accurate, and always a nice way to take 5. read more

DO NOT order from here when it's busy. The lady on duty ( don't know her name but she wears glasses and prolly fired by now). But she is rude. She forgot she put me on hold and then when I ordered she kept saying is that it after every item ( Rudely asking not polite). I didn't ask for a manager but that was a ask for the manager situation. She isn't Sonic material. Sonic needs to fire her or make her work in the back on food ( even then she needs to be watched). Oh btw in my order, I ordered the new Kevin durant slush and I had to tell her it's on the menu I'm looking at and she act like its my fault she didn't know. Smh lol. NEVER Speak to her, ever. Or at your own risk. read more

Took way to long to make the order correct then the fries were stale they had to remake them not to good for 22.00 dollars for 3 hot dogs and fries and drinks read more

Drive thru takes absolutely forever. They say to hold on and then after 15 minutes they finally ask you what you'd like.. fast food my ass

Visited with this location around 5:00 . I had a free medium slush coupon on the app and I was given very excellent service . The cashier provided more than over the top service . I forget her name , but she was a manger for sure . She greeted me with a smile , and helped me figure out what I wanted . Sonic has such a variety of flavored for slushies she helped me narrow it down to the Jolly Rancher Cherry slush . Very delicious . Thank you for providing Sonic speed , with excellent customer service . I will definitely be visiting again . Very impressed . read more

Ordered a large frie through drive thru and never received them and when I walked in a lady dining inn had told me she saw 5 customers before myself have messed up orders through the drive thru. Terrible service and didn't give me anything complementary. read more

HORRIBLE!!!! Save your money!!! Horrible service.... Food was cold and took 20 min to make. I asked for a hotdog with no bun and only ketchup. Two employees came to the manager while she chatted with her family to ask her how to make it. It was the simplest of orders.The manager was standing at the counter with her daughter and grandkids while they made a bunch of noise. No one showed any concern when we expressed our dissatisfaction with the cold food. They offered to make more but I didn't have another twenty minutes to wait or more money to throw out the window. It was an awful experience and I will not ever be returning. read more

Cash Register was off in the dine in area so I had to place my order outside and was told that I didn't pay when I already had. Person taking order was not paying attention and the burgers were made with incorrect ingredients. To top all of this, it took them about 20mins to deliver my order. Overall the worst experience I've ever had at a Sonic. This location just plain sucks. read more

Really, just unacceptable on every level. There were four of us that went out for lunch and just ordered the combo meals. We didn't throw any curve balls like 'fries, hold the salt' kind of stuff. They screwed up EVERY single one of our orders. I can't even fathom how this is possible and we even asked if we got someone else's order. Apathetic employees, so-so food. This place should be closed down. read more

Worst Sonic I've ever been to. I wish I could give it zero stars. I worked at Sonic through high school, as a carhop and eventually assistant manager, so I understand how demanding customers can be. However, this Sonic has the absolute worst customer service of any fast food place, I've ever been to. The last three experiences were bad, but I chalked them up to busy nights, lunch rush, new car hop, etc. However, this time, they were not busy at all. I sat in one of the stalls for ten minutes after pushing the service button, the first time (I pushed it a total of five times). Finally, I called the store via my phone, and the girl that answered said, rather snottily, "well, none of the lights are lit up on my board." Why would I sit in a stall for over 10 mins without hitting the button and then complain about it?! Apparently, they just want drive through business...on which case, they shouldn't operate a "drive-in." Very annoying! read more
