Today was a joke . Deal alert. Toasted caramel salt bits. Somebody can't taste.. these are featured in their app and they are the size of their pic..Plus nothing sweet about them I would have given a 1 star for. this review, but I have to admit they do have some tasty food if you order a slush.. grape or cherry for sure. Also the corn dogs are good and they make a better than decent burger. The special pricing seals the deal. Install the app and use it. Also their candy mint which comes free is a cut above your average mint.. I saying this .. order using the app . Miss those skates though. read more

Another one for the books in my not-so-healthy mom era. The reason we came here was because my husband had fond childhood memories of their jalapeño poppers. So, we pulled up to a stall... pressed the button and ordered some food. I got a Sugar free sprite with raspberry flavoring, and some tater tots. We also got an order of the memorable jalapeño poppers. I didn't get a photo of them because he dove right in... they were definitely what I would order if we return some day. I felt like the tots weren't that great (not very crispy and needed salt) and the portion was less than generous. The raspberry added to my soda was so little that I hardly tasted it, so that was a bit of a bummer also. Overall, this location provides a similar experience to what I sorta expected at Sonic. Not great, not the worst. read more

DO NOT WORK HERE Why: sewer flooding, staying open with no running hot water, managers throwing tantrums (throwing stuff when they're stressed), keeping racist employees. This is the worst place I've had someone I know work. Glad I never ate here. They even have the HR number crossed out :) read more

Today me and my mom decided to go to Sonic. I got a large mozzarella sticks and a small fry and my mom got an iced coffee. My mozzarella sticks were crispy well seasoned, and the cheese was so gooey and stretchy. And the fries were crinkle cut and they were so crispy and well seasoned. I will be coming back. read more

I love sonic. The employees are always helpful. The young lady at the drive thru made our order a combo since it was cheaper (THANK YOU!). The food is great. It's frozen food fried, kinda hard to mess up haha. Love the music they play outside, and it's clean outside too. Don't know what these other reviews are on about. read more

Service could definitely improve. I stopped in by foot, and they refused to take my order. I simply haven't bothered going back expecting the same poor service from them. read more

It's okay. Not as good as it used to be. I miss some items like the California burger. Had the grilled cheese sandwich for a change, but it was mostly bread with little cheese. I'll keep going back because I like the slushes. read more

i went to this location with my boyfriend today and he placed order for us, the girl was super nice and she even came out to make sure she got our order right, she was very very friendly with my boyfriend. when she came back out with our food i rolled down my window and she did not smile or anything so don't come here unless you want some 17 year old to oggle your boyfriend in front of you. food was banging but she forgot my marinara read more

What a nasty young lady working the drive-thru! It's raining outside, and it's dark, we sit at the order taking section the second billboard for over 10 minutes. My son, who was driving asked if they were closed. We pulled forward and back a couple times we yelled hello to the speaker...There is now five cars behind us. My son and I finally give up and drive up to the window and she gives us all kinds of attitude like you guys just drove through like no we sat there for like 10 minutes. Then she tries to say we were sitting at the wrong one, I've been to this Sonic more times than I can count. Anyhow,So she takes our order is very snippy the whole time saying we don't have that we don't have that when I didn't even order whatever that was. Had to wait a long time watched four people get out of line I wonder if they already placed orders? You need somebody better working the window. We only have one Sonic left in town, I don't want this one to fail because of workers like this. The food was okay, definitely not quality... Sonic food is normally pretty good. Maybe it's time for this location to close after all... read more

This place has come a long way since my last review, much nicer staff, less wait time and fresher food. Glad to see it has been turned around. read more

I was In stall 13 just now. Ordered. Waited for 20 minutes. All cars were gone. Pressed the button to ask if our order was almost done just for dude to say a worker walked out but nobody was there. What do you mean nobody was there? I sat in the same stall the entire time. And all he hit me with was oh . . . I'm sorry, but your closing crew from tonight at 10:39p needs to get fired. The last time we came we had the same terrible experience. Reminded me why we stopped coming. AGAIN read more

Horrible service. I went threw the drive threw no one responded waited 5mins still no answer. Drove up to the ordering window and the attendant told us we had to go back around. Choice to leave because now there was a line and he refused to take our order. He was very rude. read more

Refill time! Ordered on the app 2 large diet cherry diet Colas. Check in upon arrival. It took a while, but a masked worker eventually brought one out. Didn't say anything for waiting. Good diet cherry Diet Colas read more

So, every time I go to Sonic, it reminds me of why I don't go to Sonic. After waiting 13 minutes after placing my order (can't imagine how long I waited before then) I get my order and it's wrong. Immediately I know the drink is wrong, because it's a large iced tea and I ordered a medium strawberry limeade. The young man was very pleasant and replaced the drink. But of course, Sonic being Sonic continued to disappoint. My order must have been prepared as soon as it was ordered...judging from the congealed cheese on my chili dog...the chili is suspect as well, since there was just trace amounts. The only bright spot was that there were only 6 of the cold tater tots. Anyway, at least I answered the question "why is the line so long", it's not the great food or the service...it's poor management and confused workers read more

We ordered 2 of the pretzel twists. My husband ask about the cheese because I looked in the 2 bags we had while waiting for another. There was no cheese. When we got home he explained when he asked about the cheese. He over heard the lady in the drive thru tell her employee "I f-ing put one in their bag". When we ordered two. We paid for 2 & gave my husband one after cursing that she put them in our bag. Very unacceptable. Wish I knew before we left the restaurant. Very bad customer service. Unsatisfied read more

Stopped by this afternoon and was so impressed with the service I received from Jordan. You're doing great, Jordan. Keep smiling and keep up the good work! read more

No point in calling this fast food. Waited 30 minutes for a milkshake. INSANE. Hire some people that aren't stoned 24/7

If you want terrible food and terrible service, then this is the place for you. If you expect to be treated like a human and receive food that's actually edible, go to any of the literal dozens of other places close by. The manager Kennia was rude as hell. We placed two mobile orders and paid through the app, then they magically couldn't find the one and almost didn't even give us food. Once I finally got my food after waiting 15 minutes, this is what I opened. I showed Kennia whom then blamed it on me and told me "well we make everything when we see it so that's just from sitting". Ummm excuse me? I placed the order while waiting in my car while I was there. She finally agreed to make me a new burger, took another 10 minutes, then didn't even bring it out how I ordered it. read more

Sonic Drive-In - A "mesquite butter bacon burger". Looks more like a bun used as a sponge to clean all the excess grease off the grill. F***ing terrible. - Fast Food Near Me - Modesto, California

I have been eating at Sonic for years, and have loved many things on their menu. We don't eat there a lot because their prices a tad too high for a family of three. The last time we visited we were told they were out of onion rings and their root beer was not working. How does this happen. We can accept one thing not being available but TWO...unacceptable. We then tried to call corporate office to visit with mgr., but we're on hold for over 10 minutes. This location in Modesto, CA. has had this issue before. They don't seem to be prepared for customers, and unfortunately they come across like this is a common occurrence and do not care that their attempt at customer service is truly lacking. It will be a very long time before we visit this location again read more

I can see why they have less than 2 stars. We went there and we waited too long for what we got. We ordered the chicken fingers and they gave us the French toast strips. I guess they figured one strip is just as good as the other, NOT! And it wasn't even that we got the wrong thing, but that they put the chicken in the same bag as the sweet cinnamon strips. That's not ok. The chicken and ranch were not with the aggravation, time, or money. read more

I don't know what happened to this location. It's garbage now. Every time I go, something is wrong. It's like they don't understand the term "fast" food, nor the term easy. If you want something customized just don't order it. I legitimately order the same thing every time. Limeaide with ez cherry. But no I can't get what I ordered, I get whatever they want to give me. Just keep going don't stop here. On the other hand if you want good cheese sticks, after an hour wait you'll have some really good cheese sticks. read more

This Sonic is disgusting! Don't come here! Horrible food & service! The food was nasty, old and cold!

My boyfriend and I ordered 3 regular chicken slingers and 2 shakes June 28, 2020 Shakes were good My boyfriend had 2 Chicken Slingers, one fresh and one was not it was rubbery he did not even continue to eat it he later that night had diarrhea.. I had a Chicken slinger and it was not fresh I threw up that night and felt sick. Definitely not worth it read more

If I could give no stars I would. Don't bother ordering the chicken strips because this is what you'll get. If you wouldn't want it, why would you serve it! I probably won't be back. read more

Good food, but messed up our order, and didnt make the food plain like we asked them to for 2 meals.

If I could I would rate 0 stars. I pulled up at 11:50 after my 12 hour shift to order some milkshakes for my family and I when I waited for 5 minutes In the line with nobody in it and nobody helped me so I drove to the window when an very unprofessional female approached the window with her breast all out and her phone in her hand approached the window and told me to go back to the screen and order. Keep it mind they close at 12:00 it's 11:57 at this point and I got there at 11:50 then she never answered and when it turned 12 she l then said we're closed. Never going back here smh read more

Will not be returning even if the drinks are half price thru the app. I've been by a couple of times each time thinking never again. But the huge ice teas that I love are half off thru the app all day. I'll pay full price somewhere else. They always screw the order, even with it in writing from the app!! One time the guy was nice and no big deal. Each next time the person was in a daze and still didn't get it right. This time I ordered 2 44 ice teas and an order of onion rings. I got a 44 cup of ice and onion rings. No tea. How can 2 teas and onion rings get screwed up. Besides I had to wait 15 minutes to get my order! Oh and the iced tea barely had any ice. read more

So clearly I didn't read the reviews before trying this location. Bathroom closed, they only take cash (!), and they're incredibly slow. Can I blame them for the meth head wandering around the parking lot screaming at everybody? No? I mean, they could at least have called the cops or something but I guess they're used to it. read more

Worst customer service ever. I had to drive all the way back to this location because they got my order wrong then the employees had a nasty attitude including the manager and she spit in my food. I should have taken a picture of the huge lugee In my chicken sandwich. I've already contacted corporate to complain still no response as of yet. read more

REALLY I hope they all get fired! Well listen your rude employee I took pictures with my receipt so I'm not suprised you knew what you did in the first place! The owner can certainly contact me for confirmation!!!! Some idiot's idea of a practical joke this is exactly what Yelp was sat up for outing scum like you!!!!!!!! read more

I was really irritated with my visit to this sonic. 10 min I waited for my food.... ten long min in a drive through. That's a really long time to just be sitting there. No one even came to the window to acknowledge I was still there I thought they had forgot about me. When someone finally came with my very small order she was really rude. Sad cuz I like this place and I won't be going back. No excuses for a 10 min wait I was the only car there in the whole place. read more

Sad that Sonic can't ever get their staff right, I've been in line for about 40 mins now. Im literally writing this while I'm waiting. They need to consider some new management and employees. Absolutely RIDICULOUS! read more

My slush tasted like sink water. There was no flavor of the strawberry or lime inside this drink.

Horrible service, I would not recommend this place at all. No communication what so ever. They said no parking only drive threw but I seen other people get helped, they need to put up a sign so atleast the customer is aware and heads to the drive through, by the time they got back to me it was to late to get in the drive threw line. read more
