Samantha was the nicest and most on top of things carhop at Sonic in Port A. with delivering our order on Sunday, 18 May, 2025! You can tell she is doing her best as Sonic is being slammed and every slot was filled and drive thru was backed up! She greeted us with a smile and great attitude!! We knew it would be a little bit of a wait since they were so busy, but her great attitude and smile definitely made us feel appreciated and welcomed! Keep up the good work Samantha and thanks Sonic for making the best drinks as always! We will be back here on our next trip to Port A looking forward to seeing Samantha's smile and enjoying our Sonic order! read more

Katie is so friendly! I had an issue ordering on the app but she fixed it for me without any complaints. I walked inside & everyone smiled. They were really slammed but everyone was working hard & moving fast. We ordered here on Thursday May 19th, I just haven't had a chance to post the review. Thanks for being awesome Katie! read more

Sonic Drive-In - Burgers Near Me - Corpus Christi, Texas

The food we received was made correctly. It was just cold. Nothing we got was hot in the slightest bit. It's crazy to spend so much money on food and it comes out like it's been sitting in the counter for hours. This location needs to work on this desperately read more

10/10 stars every single time I visit this sonic. The staff is so incredibly kind and care a lot. I live very close to this location and I have come here ALOT within the past t. This is my favorite sonic in Texas! The food is wonderful and always made the way I order it from the app. Not to mention, this is also one of the cleanest sonics I have EVER been to. The landscape is beautiful and the view of the channel is remarkable (especially at sunset). If you have a negative experience at this sonic please don't let it stick with you and please be patient. Sometimes it gets busy but the employees never stop and work super hard to keep people happy. I see it all the time. They are wonderful! read more

The smash burger is the real McCoy! I've eaten a lot of burgers in my years. Never have I ever eaten the same exact burger 13 days in a row. Well this burger changed all that. Triple meat and triple cheese hold them pickles! I'm telling you this burger belongs in the carnivore's hall of fame! Well done Sonic! Well done indeed. read more

New manager, great staff every visit! High quality beverages. Best sonic I've been to read more

We ordered two diet cherry limeades. Neither one had a cherry nor a lime in it as described in the items included in the drink. It also tasted like no cherry syrup was added. It tasted like seltzer water with lime. Probably the worst cherry limeade I've ever ordered. After ordering in the app, it took 11 minutes past the time when they said our order would be ready for it to be delivered to our car. The place seemed very busy. read more

Their blast machine was down and the lady wasn't even going to tell me or let alone ask if I wanted a refund. they offered a drink that wasnt even close of the value and took a extra 15 minutes to get. some people should just not work in customer service read more

I went to their new location on the island, it's right next to Starbucks.. I went through the drive-thru.. I literally sat there for 5 minutes nobody gave me a greeting, nobody was there to take my order it was just dead silence.. it was a little after 4:30 p.m. There were no cars in the Drive-Thru when I went around there was literally just two cars at the pull-in parking. I should have just left, anyway finally someone's came through the speaker and said, 'can I take your order' I told them exactly what I wanted and how I wanted it done.. then I pulled forward to pay. I again waited at least 5 minutes just sitting there waiting and finally someone opened up the window and told me how much it was and I paid and thinking in my mind that's a little bit too much than what the menu board said (with tax included) but they gave me no receipt.. as there was nothing in the bag but one napkin three peppermints and the food that I ordered which was cold.. with no receipt to compare the price with, I could have been overcharged or since no receipt was given, that money could have just went right into her pocket. The cheeseburger that I ordered was just cheese on a piece of cold meat but the cheese was not even melted on the burger either.. I had a cheeseburger mustard sandwich there was so much mustard on it, it was all over my hands. (So grateful that she gave me one napkin) I believe this was intentionally done! They had me waiting at the menu board for 5 minutes and another 5 minutes at the window, they were not busy.. and I got cold food, that's completely unacceptable. The person which I believe was the manager on duty, (she had a striped shirt on, and a nose piercing).. - that was a very classy! Things apparently has changed so much..if one is a manager then they should be responsible enough to manage the restaurant as accordingly to their guidelines, 1. Greet the person at the drive-thru or just give acknowledgment that they are there and if busy tell the person you'll be taking their order momentarily.. 2. Make sure you charge the correct amount owed and give a receipt. 3. Give them hot food Train their staff that this is how we're going to be doing it now, because we are a restaurant and we want repeated customers.. I will not be back and I do not recommend this location to anyone.. read more

Worst sonic! Don't go here. Don't order ice cream, it will be runny and not cold. Disgusting! We waited 30 min for 4 blasts. None were good.

Came here during my visit this summer. Ordered the double. Let me just say it was absolutely delicious! Food was exactly as I ordered and fresh. Will definitely visit again next time! read more

Horrible. Bought the chicken strip dinner with onion rings and EVERYTHING was burnt. Took to go thru the drive thru so no returning. read more

this sonic was TERRIBLE. I wasn't even expecting great service because it is a sonic but even then I was disappointed. I pulled up and sat at the drive through for 10 minutes and NOBODY answered the drive through intercom. I thought it was technical issues so I pulled around to the window to order. THEN we sat at the window for 25 MINUTES while the staff just looked at me through the window and never opened the window. I tried to get their attention to see if they could take my order or if I could see if they had any issues going on that would prevent me from ordering. but they proceeded to ignore me even though they were serving cars at the stalls. After another 5 minutes I decided to leave after the staff locked the drive through window WITH ME SITTING THERE. moral of this is don't go to this sonic because it it total garbage and is run by incompetent people read more

As I have said in the past I rate all fast food places on the level of service and friendliness. Today I had a great experience at the sonic. I had to 9 year olds that could not make their minds up Mike was awesome and got the order perfect. Thanks Mike! read more

Sonic Drive-In - Mike!! - Burgers Near Me - Corpus Christi, Texas

I occasionally will try Sonic. I had seen the ad for the new Green Chile Queso burger for $3.99. The burger and the price sounded attractive. I tried, gotta say, the burger and the Oreo shake were both pretty tasty,.....so much for my low carb diet. read more

My husband and I went to lunch here today and ordered a HAMBURGER with no cheese add mustard and unsweetened tea After 6 tries the girl still didn't get it right Showed on screen 2 double meat cheeseburgers with combo My husband asked her where did she come up with that order and at that time we cancelled order and we left!!! We have never gotten the right order here. Don't know what their problem is Don't go unless you like surprises for lunch read more

Best sonic I've ever been to. Came by kind of late and they were pretty busy. My order was taken quickly and efficiently. The girl who brought my order repeated it back to me very clearly. She had a delightful attitude. The food was delicious and my chili cheese dog didn't have chili cheese smeared all over the hotdog window like it normally does at my local Sonic. YOU ROCK read more

Shoutout to Kaitlyn for giving my dog a milk bone and absolutely making her day! You are the kindest car hop on the island and my dog agrees!!! Thank you for still working during this crazy time read more

I wish they were cheaper. Other than that it's a great sonic. It's clean and fast. Food is always tasty. It's a great alternative to whataburger haha read more

It's Sonic... Not a gourmet burger place with impeccable service and ambiance. However, we stopped in for a quick lunch and found the order was correct, food was good and hot, and was delivered quick. Everything a Sonic should be! read more

New Year's Eve, and mostly any place that is inexpensive was closed. I'm staying on Padre Island, and to my surprise, I saw a Sonic. How cool is that; a Sonic by the beach. Temperature outside is in the low 40's, and windy with rain coming; but I still had to have a slushy. I had their new Boneless wings, asian sweet chili, and they were a little on the salty side. I also had their cheese burger and tots. Staff is great and place is well kept. Some call window look beaten up but probably because of the customers parking too close to them. Overall, I say 3.5, but I can't put .5 on, so I'm going with a 4. =) read more

Came here last weekend and ended up leaving with NO FOOD Placed our order at the drive thru, and the service ended Ordered an American dog and chili cheese dog. A few minutes later a girl came out to the car, in the drive thru lane, and tried to give us someone else's order... Got to the window and again tried to give us the WRONG FOOD. So I asked the girl if she had any idea what we really ordered.... and she said no. MEANWHILE there are 6-7 girls standing around inside chatting while customers have no idea what's going on with their order. Maybe Monte concerned about looking cute than taking care of customers?!?! She comes back again and tried to give us the food that had been brought out to our car 10 minutes earlier. She said it was the order we placed.... so I asked her if that was the food they tried to give us 10 minutes earlier and she said yes!!!!! I asked he if it was cold by now and she said yes!!!!!!! I told her they could keep it and drove off. read more

Not impressed, padre island Sonic Drive-In! I go place an order for 3 people (food & drinks... not happy hour) & then ask for a large ice water (tap... not bottled) FOR MY DOGS, which I specified, & you want to charge me??? Bad form. #nothavingit #takethatfromyourtip #notgoodbusiness read more

Made my ocean water with watcher and syrup also game me a chicken sandwich instead of a grilled cheese

Messed up our order twice and once we got everything we ordered we were disgusted in the quality of the food. Also you could tell they hadn't cleaned their drink fountains in a while so the sprite tasted dirty. read more

We stopped here on our way to the beach while visiting from Austin and we seriously went out on a limb because pretty much every location we have near us (in Austin) is a complete disappointment for a number of reasons so we didn't have high expectations. We ordered for SIX people, (which is a struggle in itself) and were fully prepared to wait for a ridiculous amount of time for them to bring us wrong items or make some mistakes. NOPE. We waited, maybe, 10 minutes (probably less) and we were served the proper order hot and fresh. It was like a dream. I wish we could've tipped the entire staff because those kids are doing it right at this location. Too bad we don't live closer, we'd go there all the time. read more

Always great food and friendly people, all the good food comes from the island! I definitely prefer this location over the other ones around town. read more

I was super concerned that the girl serving our foods hands were stained red from grabbing the cherries. So that means she is not wearing gloves when handling food. They also tried to over charge us for a milk shake. read more

very quick service and everyone was nice. food was lit btw. please come to this sonic and you will be very happy. the chicken is great. slushies are great. blasts are great. read more

Well, since no one is writing reviews for this conveniently located sonic than I will! You never know when you'll need a cherry limeade slush, especially at the beach! Odds are you will want to come back here once you get parked at the beach so do yourself a favor and just stop here before you regret passing on it later. Have fun! read more

I love Sonic Drinks a lot. I always order the same drink at different Sonics. I ordered my drink and was specific about it. They were wrong with it both times. Another worker named ABBY came out to me to verify what I was ordering. ABBY said, "Since we have already made you two drinks, we can't make you more because they will be losing money." Clearly, Sonic was wrong!!! ABBY had a really bad attitude about making a completely different drink and she huffed and puffed off. Abby asked me to pay for another drink after they have be wrong the entire time!! Needless to say, I finally got a different drink and drive off.... and Abby still works at Sonic. read more

For future reference, milkshakes are actually blended such that strawberry chunks do not have to be physically removed from the bottom of the straw every few seconds This was the worst milkshake i have ever had from Sonic. You should be ashamed read more

For fast food this is about as good as it gets. I love the way they will customize a drink with various flavors. My favorite Is a chocolate cherry coke zero. I also love that they will add hickory bbq sauce to a burger. read more

I hate to give a Sonic 4 stars but dammmmnnn that hamburger was good. Fresh food quick just steps from our hotel- I can't complain!

the girl in the glasses was cursing me out on the mic giving me bad attitude like there isn't a huge glass window on the establishment, like all i asked for was some time to think about my order, anyways rude staff only come here if you want to be bitched out for trying to order a damn shake read more

Whenever I pulled up all the employees were looking like they've never seen a human before. I asked for a spoon and was not given one. And they couldn't make a simple cash& card payment . Worst Sonic I've been to. read more

I know it's a rough time right now BUT... I can't believe how bad the service was at this place today. My friend (who has a beautiful thick Puerto Rican accent) was ordering at a stall for us. The guy taking our order lost patience and got snippy with her because he couldn't understand her and he cut her off multiple times. If he would've let her talk he would've known she wanted honey BBQ chicken instead of plain and he would've been able to get all the sauces we were wanting. The carhop also seemed to be cranky and rolled her eyes at us a few times while we were trying to make sure we got everything we ordered. We ended up having to go through the drive-thru to get our sauces. Same carhop came out, eye rolls and all, to hand us our sauces. No, it wasn't rush hour... customer service training should probably take place, because that was ridiculous. And when we got to our hotel room we found that our mozzarella sticks were still frozen. read more
