Sonic Drive-In - The burger patty is burnt. - Burgers Near Me - Franklin Park, New Jersey

Yesterday was a very busy day at work. So here's me eating a soft pretzel and a big scoop cookie dough sundae in my car for dinner yesterday. You heard it here first, Sonic's soft pretzel and cheese sauce is giving Aunty What'sHerName a run for their money. I am so serious. They're hot, buttery, and delicious. Try it! And that sundae was phenomenal. Put the leftovers in the freezer and it tasted even better the next day. Soft serve ice cream that turns hard... a concept. read more

I'm typing this review with shaking fingers: when I pulled up into the drive-through lane, I caught a glimpse of a worker walking to someone's car to serve them their meal -- that's right, WALKING. I thought Sonic's whole thing was, "Guys, look at the employees rollerblading around the parking lot with your food." I'm just so sick and tired of constantly being lied to. It is with a heavy heart I must deduct a star from my review for this very reason. The food was actually pretty good (by fast food standards, of course) and managed to overshadow the bitter flavor of being deceived by someone I thought I could trust. I'm a fan of the dawg (that's what us hot dog fanatics call hot dogs, by the way) and I was pleasantly surprised by Sonic's. The tater tots were also really good, which is saying A LOT because it's been like at least eight years since I've had a solid tot that didn't have a lingering taste of freezer burn. read more

Whenever I'm in the same area as a Sonic, I will stop and get my favorite drink. The diet cherry limeade. Service is simple through the drive thru. read more

You think you're pulling in for a slice of American Graffiti when all you're doing is bringing Apocalypse Now a little closer. Burgers so nasty your car will smell like a subway armpit with drink concoctions right out of a diabetics mixology class. Is Cookie Dough Fruit Loops really a thing? My curiosity has been satisfied. On the other hand my new car smell went the way of the 7 train towards Queens. One greasy star. read more

Stopped here for dinner the other night. Thought the food would be brought out on a tray like Stewart's does but either I was mistaken or because of Covid they don't do this. Ok not a big deal. Got hot dog with cheese, which was so so. My daughter got a cheesesteak, which was actually chopped burger, kind of weird. Boyfriend had grilled chicken sandwich which had so much lettuce that he said he got a side salad with sandwich. Ordered jalapeño poppers, tasted freezer burned. Got 2 sonic blasts and milkshake. Wish you could get chocolate ice cream instead of only vanilla and milkshake was half whipped cream. Overall, food was ok, service was pretty fast. Not close to where I live so I wouldn't go out of my way to go again read more

Literally incompetent service workers who declined multiple forms of payment from different people yet insisted it was because we didn't have enough money to pay... when we came back with cash from an ATM they gave us our cold food from 20 minutes earlier. Very rude and food was mid. Soggy fries & tots, melted slushy, and the worst part is that it probably would've been mediocre without the wait time. Just go to a different Sonic it's not worth the headache. read more

I had a Butterfinger Sonic Blast which consisted of vanilla ice cream with Butterfinger pieces. There could have been more Butterfinger pieces present been blended better. The same thoughts applied as my previous review. read more

Sonic Drive-In - Butterfinger Blast - Burgers Near Me - Franklin Park, New Jersey

This review is predominantly about Gerardo. this evening we picked up our order and when we got home we were missing two items. Annoyed, we got back in the car and drove the 15 minutes back. We noticed as we were waiting there were only 2 cooks and 2 food runners, which considering the drive in and drive thru were bumping, was of course not enough staff. We pulled into a drive in spot and notified over the radio that we were missing two items, we had our receipt and the bag to show it. Gerardo said he would be right out with our missing items. After checking the receipt, he handed us our missing items with a smile and told us to have a lovely evening. Even in the face of other waiting customers, he took our complaint with grace and immediately rectified the problem. We are customers for life! read more

Love there chicken bites and slushies, I think it is cook to order because I place an order online then waiting about 10 to 15 minutes at the car hop place. The only thing that bothered me is the turned off the lights while I was out there waiting so I was in my car in the dark waiting. If you know a customer is waiting dont turn off the lights. ‍ read more

The food is good for a snack but not all of it is good. As you see in the photo, the tater tots were not made nice and tasted pretty bad. Also, most of the time the service is fairly good but sometimes it isn't. I completely understand that people have good and bad days and having to deal with some annoying customers can put anyone in a mood, but don't take it out on other people who just want their food. Moving on, the ambiance is alright but most of the drive in spots are broken and the drive through machine isn't good at all. There has to be some money in the budget to get a better one so the person can hear what the customer is ordering without having to yell. Also, there are plenty of Deaf/Hard of hearing people in the area so it would be helpful to make it easier for everyone if they got a box that worked properly. All in all, the food for the most part is good, the staff is usually pretty friendly and the area is easy to get in and out of. read more

Sonic Drive-In - Chili Cheese Tots - Burgers Near Me - Franklin Park, New Jersey

I brought my kids there to get a quick dinner tonight around 5:30. There were 3 employees inside they were working or should I say hanging out. One was Vaping as I was waiting for my food. I could see them through the drive thru window. When I got my food, my tots were half full with some fries in it as well. The fries were cold and my grilled cheese was not cut in half for my kids meal. My Chicago dog was also cold as well and my milk shake was warm smh I guess I get what I paid for... next time I'll take the extra 5 min and go to 5 Guys read more

Literally ordered a NUMBER 6 with chili and cheese and these idiots gave me a cheesesteak. I am LIVID. Who gets that mixed up with a cheesesteak? read more

Not a fan of sonic's food, but great drinks and corn dogs. This location has the slowest drive thru known to man though. I've waited up to 15 minutes for a soda. I've seen people pull out of line after ordering on numerous occasions due to the wait. Their pricing is questionable. Always check your receipt. I've been over charged numerous times there. read more

Terrible... They are so slow.. In drive thru line now for over 20 minutes with only two cars ahead of me. I don't get it read more

Nothing against Sonic, but the employees are THIEVES. This has happened to me twice now. The first time around i thought it was my mistake and did not pay attention but it happened again. Additional charges will appear on your card please verify, they probably enjoy meals on your expense. This one African American girl, wears glasses in her mid twenties seems a nice girl but she is the thief, generally works in the evening. If Sonic corporate is reading please take action. I have files an dispute with my credit card company already. read more

The food was fine but the person working the drive thru rushed me through my order, got it, wrong and didn't ask me what I wanted for a side. I came here at 3:37 for food not a passive aggressive argument read more

This sonic needs to update their hours. They say they close at 9 but always close at least a half hour early. It's ridiculous

It's a big brand fast food company so you can't really complain about their food, because it's the same no matter which one you go to, but the service at this Sonic is terrible. Waiting in a line for 15 minutes only for them to get something wrong. I've has more incorrect orders than i have even close to correct ones. Plus the drive through area isn't wide enough to let you leave if you're tired of waiting. Good food, but terrible service and organization. read more

Let me start by saying we love sonic...our local one is great. That said, My family and I were in the mood when we recently tracked to central jersey for a relatives sports event. We pulled into the empty lot thinking we had the place to ourselves. We pulled in to order and were instructed it was drive through only.....???Ok, not a big deal. Ordered and got our food from drive through and went around the side to eat because of the apparent lack of car service. Opened our meals and they forgot a sandwich. They responded to the button this time and brought out the sandwich I had paid for already...what's going on at this location?? On a side note the frozen zone is fully operational as we ordered ice cream without incident read more

Wow for years in NJ they showed commercials for sonic.. Such a tease. But it's here and there popping up all over. And I have one by me. There is a God. There slushies are as good as they say and a decent varity. The cream slush is my favorite. Amd yes they do serve you on rolled skate. Makes this place stand out to other fast food places. Everything I have tried there is good. But the new cheese bread hot dogs are my favorite. But no matter what you get you have to get a slushie of some kind. Amd if you go after a certain time there half price. What else does that. Not wendys mc Donalds burger king. You get my point. You get your moneys worth here. read more

I used to LOVE sonic..i felt like it was a notch above other fast food joints. So on my ride home from north jersey i was excited to stop here (not many south jersey locations near me). What a mistake. Ordered 2 combos, simple order, and they forgot our fries. Not a huge deal, just annoying. The real problem I had was my burger. Soggy bread, which is a joke given it's called a "toaster". That bread wasn't in the same building as anything a human being would describe as toast...think more of a bread paste. Stuffed between the slabs of bread paste was a dry, flavorless meat circle. Awful burger. The wet, old shredded iceberg lettuce on the meat disc didn't help..at all. There was an onion ring and bacon somewhere is this sadness of a sandwich...i tasted neither of the two. The tator tots were more edible, but screwing up a tator tot is like screwing up cereal. This review could have been 2 words long but that would have been "easy." Those 2 words are "Never again." I'd rather lick the bottom of a trash can than get a burger here again, and not one of those fancy trashcans in an upper blue collar home with a golden retriever, I'm talking school cafeteria trashcan. read more

Sonic Drive-In - Meat disc on bread paste! - Burgers Near Me - Franklin Park, New Jersey

Does anyone actually run this place or are they just running it into the ground??? Hotdogs are nasty, service is HORRIBLE...you're lucky if you get what you actually order! read more

I purchased 2 Oreo sonic blasts and shake. The girl at the drive thru with Red hair is so rude. Asking me what else I want before I finish my sentence. The shakes have no Oreo pieces other than what was on top. Very disappointed. And the rude cashier made it worse. She rushed me just to talk to the 2 boys working in the back. Wtf. Fire her butt. Treat customers with respect. But I know she is young. But still ... read more

I am giving this Sonic only one star, because I only like their tater tots. Other than that, I don't like anything about Sonic and especially the management at this location. I went there at 6pm on a Sunday and saw an advertisement right in my face that said "footlong + tots for $3.99" As a consumer, if that is the information that I am given I WILL order it. So I did and they said I couldn't get it because the deal doesn't start until the next day. I looked at the fine prints on the advertisement and there was no mentioning about when the deal starts. The receiver just simply told me I cannot get it. I was super annoyed. I wanted the hot dog and I wanted tots and it would've satisfied my craving completely. Inside my car, I saw a Sonic employee switching all the signs at every spot to the advertisement that I attempted to order. Clearly, the upper management is whack to think to order someone to do this at 6pm and then not let people order it! If I went at 11pm, Okay, I can understand. I really despite eating in my car, so everything about this joint bothers me. If I really want tots next time, I will go to the grocery store and purhcase a frozen bag of tots and heat it up at home. Their food is really nothing special! read more

One of the worst Sonic's I've ever been to. The kitchen staff doesn't know how to use a microwave much less actually cook food. Meanwhile the order staff don't give a damn about the customer. Bluntly, the franchisee for this one needs to be removed and the entire staff canned. The only "interest" they show is in one another and how to filch the till every way they can. I may choose to eat at other Sonic's in the south, but this one is crossed off my list for good. read more

The first and only Sonic to open in the northeast that is near me. Super fun place to take kids to. Food is fast and junky, but better quality than McD and BK. read more

I just got the ice cream with Reese's peanut butter cups. Can't really go wrong with that lol.

I love sonic mostly for it's drinks. There's nothing like a cherry limeaide with their signature crushed iced on a hot day. I also appreciate that the offer their ice cream drinks in the "mini" size, an appropriate serving. That said, service at this particular Sonic can be lacking at times. They always forget spoons and/or are out of things after taking your order. Very slow moving at night. read more

WARNING BE SURE TO HAVE A MICROWAVE IN YOUR CAR!! I don't even know why I bother coming back to this place when I know I'll be disappointed every time. No matter what I order it is always cold. Ordered two crispy chicken sandwich combos in drive thru both sandwiches were cold hard chicken as of they had been sitting for some time the cheese tots we cold as well with cheese smeared all over the tray. Thank god i live local to be able to put in the microwave, otherwise I wouldn't eat any of it, but this shouldn't be what anyone deals with. I will no be back. read more

Me and my boyfriend ordered off of Uber eats and it won't let you customize your burger. So being a former manager at a fast food restaurant for 3 years i thought, okay I'll give them a call when i see my order is accepted. First call no answer. Okay no problem it's lunch time. Second call 10 min later and all i got was incompetence. I asked for no pickle no mustard on my burger and the man continued to speak loudly over me about how he can't do anything about it and i need to contact Uber... how do i contact Uber when they don't even have an option for it... why can't you just take the shit off my burger like i asked because it's seriously NOT THAT HARD. Long story short don't expect excellence from them. They're rude and incompetent it's unbelievable. Train better... seriously. read more

Welp it's 9:24AM, the restaurant is supposed to open at 9:00AM... I'm still waiting. I love the food but geez, you def need employees at work ON TIME to enjoy the food. #VeryAnnoyed read more

Sonic? More like subsonic. We waited for 15 minutes in the drive thru line. This is terrible for any fast food joint, much less a restaurant that prides itself on speedy service. Save yourself and go somewhere else instead. read more

Worst fast food spot in the area. The sandwiches always cold and old .shakes are watery and nasty! Half the time they get my order wrong. read more

Slooowwwwww 30 mins for a mobile order of a drink and blast.... they claim they never got order but it showed up on screen outside. Always slow employees always fooling around inside insight of customers. Food ehhh Drinks and Shakes good but it just is not worth the wait. almost always at least 15 minutes no matter what you order. I was happy to move somewhere there was a Sonic close, this one has turned me off of Sonic.... The Regional Manager needs to visit and see the crap that goes on here. read more

I don't know what happen to this location, but they have went down hill. I only order onion rings and the milkshakes when I go but this time my onion rings were burnt. They had the never to put two good ones on top so I didn't realize. read more

This location is possibly the worse. Attendants taking order never get it right. After repeats from customer, order still comes out wrong, items left out. Asked for the cheeseburger without cheese as thier menu didn't have any such option for a regular burger. Got a burger with cheese, no lettuce no tomato, no mayo. Chicken sandwich along with that was sloppily put together. That takes the cake. These mofos officially suck. read more

The burgers are kinda soggy and very greasy...not so good. Stick with the hot dogs if u are looking for food.....but really this place should just be thought of as a ice cream shop. They have the best ice cream and the best most creative drinks/ices ever. I come often for the limeaids and sundaes! read more

I wish I could give this place less than one star. I ordered a cheeseburger and specifically asked that it be hot. I find the food here in general to come out like warm or cold. Well the cheeseburger I ordered, as well as the tator tots, were cold. I won't be frequenting this place again. read more

I'm not sure about all the tot talk but this location is poorly managed and under staffed. It's basically hit or miss.
