    Honey BBQ popcorn chicken

    Even though the roller skates don't make a debut here, I appreciate the solid customer service through the drive-in spots where it's easy to order through the touch screen. Not a single salad in sight and somehow that's alright... Breakfast all day long and different options of toasted breaded sandwiches seem to take over the menu with plenty of sauced and breaded duos ready for the "tots or fries" question. I personally like the Chicago dog here as it's served on a steamed poppy seed roll which is just to my liking. Who doesn't like mozzarella sticks ?! The good thing is they never forget to add the marinara sauce so you never leave resentfully unsatisfied. If you're in the mood for dessert, then order your meal through the screen first and then place your sweets order afterwards so I thing melts and you don't feel rushed. I remember the days when I used to drive up north to Broward for Sonic but having this ample location on the western típ of Hialeah surely makes my trips to the 33018 worthwhile.

    Employee chatting with a friend to not allow us to go up to the window

    Service was horrid. Coming through the drive thru for a late night munch (10:38) with a few friends I informed "Guido" the man working there at the time that there were multiple separate orders, to which he responded "No". I then drive up to the window to see another employee dilidallying in the drive thru window. They then proceeded to refuse to give us service and then cuss me out on the mic. Unacceptable behavior from a fast food chain.

    The positive, the workers were pleasant and cheerful. The negative was the lack of choices, because they were out of menu items, and of course those were the things I wanted. You pull up and see a large banner advertising their Totchos. You guessed it, not available. No Iced Tea either. So I settled for a corn dog and chili cheese tots. The tots were so salty. What happened? Almost inedible. Maybe the issues were Covid related, so I won't give two stars.

    I grew up around Sonic my whole life so I was excited to see one right where I work. It hasn't been open very long so probably I will be back but I went once to get a slush and a corn dog to relive childhood memories. The slush was ok but had too much syrup in it and the corn dog batter was not cooked all the way thru, that being said I went last Saturday for lunch which it was out of the way for me since I was not working in the area that day. I pre-ordered on the Sonic app so all I would have to do is pick it up when I got there. The app told me to go inside and tell the crew member my name for pickup. I did so and waited for about 10 minutes before asking to cancel my order. The manager came over to why I canceled my order, I let him know what happened and that I had to leave to back to work. Apparently the order was never sent to the Sonic and so was never prepared also the person at the register never even checked to see if it was in the system even though I payed for it already thru the app. The manager explained that he doesn't know anything about the app and that the app might not send the order into the restaurant. He returned my money using cash because he didn't know how to return the money back on my card thru the app. I might go back again when I am in the area but I will be hesitant.

    They even skate your dinner when you sit on the indoor area! That being said, the latest entrance to Hialeah Gardens' restaurant row needs a little bit of work. I heard about this chaim thru their folksy commercials and even ate at one in central Florida a few years back (might even be a review for it) so I was glad when they came to my neck of the woods. Seeing as though there was a bit of a line at the drive thru , I noticed there's also an inside dining space. The cashier was pleasant enough, but the dining room decor needs somework. There's an irregular scattering of tables, plus a huge empty space in the center of the dining room. Vibe, at least indoors, is your basic fast food restaurant. As far as food, I ordered their double cheeseburger and though sizeable and fairly juicy, nothing really jumped out as an essential burger joint. At least they got my buegger right with no mayo. My main "beef" with them is their fries. As you can see in the photo, the regular fries are really small. I'm talking about smaller than my hand small. The fries could have been crisper as well. The saving grace was the waffle Sunday I got for dessert. It had a nice spread of thin toasted waffles and actual strawberries. Maybe I'll just stop by for dessert..

    fries

    this is the second time we go to sonic's and order large fries and they are not even filled! charge more for large and they give me a regular size. so annoying

    I absolutely love this place! It took me a while to discover it but now that I have I have been…read moreback many times. North South Grill is a neighborhood gem. Way way better than standard fast food in terms of quality, freshness, and care, but with a relaxed, welcoming environment. They have the best smash burgers in the neighborhood, hands down. They are large, incredibly juicy, always perfectly cooked, and packed with flavor. They are my go to but...The attention to detail doesn't stop at the burgers. Their fries and onion rings are beyond delicious. They give you the perfect amount of i rings too- not too many not too few. They are crispy, battered perfectly. On our last visit, my friend ordered the gyro fries loaded with gyro meat, feta, tzatziki, red onions, tomatoes, and Greek dressing., and honestly, that dish is so hearty and rich it could easily be a meal all on its own. If you don't want a burger- the gyros and Greek salads are also fresh and completely delicious. They have a pretty big menu too with other options like chicken sandwiches and tenders and Wagu steak sandwiches. The place is not too big- 5-6 tables inside. Very clean- friendly service. I wish they had milk shakes! Then I would not go any else lol.

    Had lunch at this Butgerfi and the staff was pretty nice and friendly…read more I loved the spicy veggie burger I ordered. It was just the right amount of spice! Very tasty but not insulting to the taste buds! Super soft burger bun and real fresh ingredients! I also got a side of French fries with spice on them. The spice was a bit too salty for me but the fries were fire!! Had to get a fountain drink which I wasn't too happy with the choices. I would like it they offered better drinks. They have fountain drinks like Coke and Minute Maid Lemonade and other coca cola drinks including root beer. So I would love to see more natural juices, refresher water or iced teas. I think that would compliment their burgers really well! Another thing to consider is the prices of these burgers. They run about $9-$11 plus the fries ( individual size $4.99), and drink $3. Plus the tax and tip you end up paying about $20-22 for a burger combo. So it's a cool place for adults but I would be curious to see how much a family of 4 or more would spend here..$100...$120? Because of those 2 things I gave them 4 out of 5 stars! The drinks are definitely needed. You're going to lose clientele or money from people who either won't drink the fountain drinks or the healthier ones who'll bring their own water bottle.. P.S. I forgot to take pictures! Their food is excellent no complaints about it!

The location is convenient, and there are parking spaces. Not too many, but enough to have people coming and going steadily. Everything was closed around there, except for Wendy's and Taco Bell across the street. We decided to give it a try since we were exploring the city, and how wrong can you go with burgers? We ordered bacon burgers with fries. They also have cheeseburgers and other toppings to choose from from the menu. You can replace the burger with chicken if you want. There are two vegan options too, good call, by the way--also, tequeños and different flavored chicken wings, and fries with cheese, or onions or bacon are available to order too. In the parking lot, there are a few small tables if you want to eat there or wait for your order. We chose to sit and eat there. We were not missing the experience of people-watch in Miami! We were there for 40 minutes, and cars stopped all the time. There was even a line at some point. So, the burgers were very tasty, right-sized, nothing overdone. The fries were okay too. We liked the place and the experience very much. A great option to consider for a late-night snack!

Our server was attentive; he provided additional ranch, made suggestions, and passed by the table frequently to make sure our experience was positive. My go-to every time I visit Sports Grill is pretty simple: an order of fries, some special grilled wings, and plenty of celery and ranch. This, accompanied by a Yuengling or two, and you've got a fantastic meal while enjoying the game. The special grilled wings have this underlying spice and charred flavor that's unlike any other wing. They had that crunch on the outside, and the chicken was tender but moist with every bite. My only issue is that the name implies it's grilled and the name could be a bit misleading. A lot of people prefer food be grilled and not fried. While the wing is still enjoyable, the server explained to me that they fry the wings first and then grill them. For the health conscious, this may be a bit of an issue. The fries were fresh and crisp on the outside and soft on the inside. The ambience is welcoming for your typical family, sports fans, or anyone looking to grab a drink. Obviously, it's a sports bar, so don't expect it to be quiet in here, especially now that football season is right around the corner. That said, with a plethora of plasma televisions, sports decor, a well-stocked bar, and a decent menu, you're sure to enjoy your visit.

Legit legit always bragged about how they have the whole wing and the seasoning to char was just so on point. But... there's always a time and dance for everything and I believe this one has slowly died out of its bragging rights. I came the other night to just have some wings and decided to also add the tots. You know when "I could've made this at home" is the afterthought it's not it anymore. So with that being said... it's local, it's a gathering place, they have tvs with sports, they have a kitchen. Need I say more?!
