    a view from inside a car

    This is not my Usual SONIC location but I came here before my appointment in the New Orleans area. I was a bit scared using my mobile app because I did not see it pop up on the screen. Sometimes the mobile app is faster and sometimes it's much much slower. In this instant it was nice and perfect to use at this location. I order a small mozzarella sticks with a pretzel twist. The lady who came out to give me my food was so sweet and also had extra cheese and marinara sauce waiting for me, without even having to ask. This location is clean and nice. I also came on a beautiful day and people were sitting outside which was nice. I also got 6 cheese sticks instead of 4, which was a great surprise!! All hot and fresh!!

    Been to Sonic's many times on the west coast. Very first time in the southeast. This Sonic does not vary from the rest. Location is very convenient as it was just next door to my hotel. Food is also standard, one of the few places that offers tots! I also liked their many drink options! I'm old school, but what caught my eye was the blue raspberry with Nerds! Last time I had Nerds was at least 10 years ago! Service was ok, but prompt. Placed my order and came out under 10 minutes. Server was nice and polite. Gave her cash, but no change given. I checked into Sonic on Yelp after I got back to my hotel. For those unfamiliar with Sonic, there's a 10% discount *must mention when ordering, doesn't work through mobile pay or order ahead. Attached screen cap to pictures for future reference for other yelpers. Not too sure if I'll return to this particular Sonic, but I'll definitely keep on coming to the rest!

    After a long debate about what I would eat for today I was really craving sonic! I hadn't been here in years honestly so I just spontaneously felt the urge to go. After looking at the menu I decided on the #12 combo (chicken tender bites(???), tater tots + cheese, and a sprite no ice) and mozzarella sticks. It didn't take long at all for the food to get to my car. Maybe a total of 3 minutes after ordering. I must say I was kinda disappointed. I LOVE their cheese tots, but half of the tots didn't even have cheese. That sucks. Then I moved on to the chicken, which was supposed to be essentially drenched in buffalo sauce. Even after I vigorously shook the container, there was barely any sauce on (yet again) half the wings. Probably only 2 whole bites had been fully coated. Then I move on to my drink so I can calm down the spicy flavors in my mouth. Low and behold, it has ice (aka less drink) then it isn't even filled all the way. Luckily the mozzarella sticks were good, but everything else was a let down. Probably won't come back to this specific sonic.

    On the menu: Footlong chili/cheese Coney dog with a strand of black hair. Yummy

    I just went to the this location, which is the closest & most convenient, but I will never go again. Everything was fine until I got home to eat. I ordered a chili/cheese Coney dog with tots, & a corn dog. I eat my order until I get to the last of chili in the box. I pulled out a hair! There's no point in calling the establishment & complaining, but it makes you wonder if the people making the food are being sanitary & wearing hairnets. I work in the food & beverage industry & this is unacceptable. I'm sick to my stomach.

    Fancy new style canopy

    So this is a brand new Sonic...and as I've stated before Sonic is my favorite fast food. This one is fancy, all clean and new, with the new style high arched canopy that Sonic is doing now. Plus there were freaky looking ducks to dodge in the parking lot. I think they were begging for fries & tots. Smart ducks.

In the restaurant business, we all have a switch: once the doors open, it flips. Until then, you're seeing people exactly as they are. This team is genuine. Hands down. Yes, I know, I'm technically here for a king cake. Standing in line for a king cake from a famous fried chicken company almost feels satirical. But watching the entire team sit down together for a meal an hour before service told me everything I needed to know about the leadership and the values of this company. People matter here. You can see why the sandwiches are as good as they are. You can feel why the king cake is worth the wait. This team operates like a family; kind to one another, intentional, and connected. The food is made with care because the people are cared for. I'm not here to review the food (which is phenomenal) or the king cake. I'm here to review the brand. This is the kind of business we should be proud to support as a community. Keep it up.

    I thought Southern's was pretty good overall. The menu offers some unique options, including…read morecreative chicken sandwiches and a few Asian-inspired fusion dishes that go beyond traditional Southern cuisine. I also like that they feature a daily special that isn't on the regular menu--it adds a nice element of variety. Everything is cooked to order, which is definitely a plus. Just keep in mind that most of the menu is fried, so this isn't the place to go if you're looking for a particularly healthy meal.

The biggest negative for me is that this is a smoking bar and while they do have a HUGE space that usually makes the smoking not such a problem that changes fast during the peak Friday nights when they offer their 2 for 1 burger special when it gets so smoky that I can't handle it. My visits during the weekday seemed quite pleasant but the crowded weekends just get far too smoky for me unfortunately. The burgers and ribeye steaks here are fairly priced and better than you get at many far fancier and way more expensive restaurants. I've eaten a LOT of steaks and enjoyed plenty of good steak nights around the New Orleans area but the ribeye here is by far one of the best I've had anywhere. The service at the bar and at the tables is quick, friendly and overall just a great experience. This is some of the best bar food I've had anywhere and just one of the best options for a great steak and burger at a great price anywhere. Now if they could just do something about the cancer sticks...

She was very attentive, without being overly annoying(if that makes sense). Now let's get into the food. Hamburger was well seasoned as well as the fries. I ordered the who dat burger. Which is a dressed burger with onion ring, bacon and bbq added. To say I had a lot going on, on that burger my bun wasn't soggy at all. That bun held up perfectly. The patty was real beef meat. Not burnt, not tough, just a juicy seasoned piece of beef. Aslso didn't have to anything to the fries. The came with just the right amount of salt. It's hard to really find a good burger place without breaking the bank. This place was very good. From the staff to the food. Everything was wonderful. Will definitely be back to try other menu items.

The building on the outside is pretty cozy and easy on the eyes. The inside looks like a typical American style restaurant but they have a bar area and poker machines for anyone above the age of 21. The men's bathroom does not have a changing table for babies. They offer plenty of table space and even have two tables for when and if you have more than four people in your party. There are no booths but they include round and square tables and you can usually sit where you want and some views are window views. The staff was very friendly and were willing to be helpful with recommendations. They provide menus but they are cleaned in between individuals. I tried their Cajun Chicken sandwich and was pretty impressed with the quality of the food. The restaurant had good quality chicken and they ask how you want it dressed. You are provided an option for your side or sides. You can also add on cheese if you desire. The waitress walked me through my order and I enjoyed it more with that desire to help me. The food was nice and hot when received. It tasted good and there was no crisp issues with the lettuce or fries. I would recommend it. It was a good experience and the food was amazing. All the employees wore masks and they stayed just far enough away from you to make you comfortable. We were seated immediately and it didn't take long for drinks or food to come out. The staff was friendly and helpful. There was plenty of room away from other dinners and we were there during dinner hours. I am recommending it but it is in an awkward spot to drive to.
