Pickle fries they advertised
Jessica P.

Sonic is probably the worst restaurant in Smithfield. I like to give a restaurant a few times before making a decision and leaving a review but time and time again this restaurant has failed. From entire orders being completely wrong to old dry over cooked food and even having to repeat your order several times at the speaker. I will never be back. I'd rather have McDonald's. More on the specific items I ordered today: pickle fries - these are new to promote the big dill burger. They are supposed to be long dill pickles sliced and fried. Instead I got the little quarter circle pickles that go on the burgers fried & burnt. Disgusting. Then I ordered a simple corn dog, couldn't even eat it because it was cooked so long the hot dog was poking through the breading at the top. Major fail Boneless chicken wings - presented with almost no sauce on the wings at all. How do these people think it's even a little bit okay to serve food like this? Management clearly doesn't give af.

Cheese Tots

They literally overcharged me and gave me the largest size of everything without asking, the food was disgusting, cold, and hard, I wouldn't even feed this to My worst enemy, oh and if you want a refund do not expect one or even a call back, you can't even get in touch with the actual store and just bounce you back and forth between random customer service people who can't even help, this location is disgusting and I'm so annoyed I can't even get a refund, I felt sick after taking one bite of this food.

I like using the app because I can pre-order my food and during certain times of the day you can get a discount on your drink.

A Classic Done Right at Zack's Char-grill. Sometimes the…read morebest meals are the simplest ones, and Zack's Chargrill in Smithfield proves this perfectly. My wife and I stopped in for what we thought would be a quick bite, but ended up with something much more satisfying. The menu isn't fancy - just good, honest burgers and fries - but the execution is spot-on. My wife ordered a double cheeseburger with lettuce and tomato, while I went full Carolina style with chili, slaw, mustard, and onions. Both burgers were cooked exactly right, with that perfect char-grilled flavor you can only get from doing things the traditional way. What really struck me was how this meal brought back memories of old-school burger joints where quality ingredients and proper technique mattered more than gimmicks. The fries were crispy and hot, the perfect complement to these substantial burgers. If you find yourself in Smithfield and craving a burger that tastes like it should, you really can't go wrong with Zack's Char-grill. It's old-time goodness served fresh, and sometimes that's exactly what you need. Sorry about the photos. Phone screen went blank and couldn't see what I was aiming at. :-)

Sunny skies, great food, and watching planes take off and land right in front of you? This unique…read morespot was definitely worth the short drive from the Raleigh area on a warm Sunday afternoon. There was a bit of a wait to sit outside - this place is POPULAR! But it was worth those few extra minutes for front row seats of the action on the tarmac below. We arrived during their lunchtime buffet hours, although you can also order from their regular menu. I'm not usually a buffet person, but since I wanted to try a little bit of everything it was definitely the way to go. For $18 I got some ribs, pulled pork, and BBQ chicken. Not to mention, a side of their delish cornbread, and a scoop of two of my Southern faves: mac & cheese and collard greens. Sadly, I was too full of the deliciousness to make a second trip, but if I had it would have been for a heaping pile of mashed potatoes and a generous scoop of their homemade peach cobbler. If you like airplanes and BBQ, add this to your list for your next visit to the area. They also have a full bar, though on this hot day we were happy with bottomless refills of their refreshing sweet tea.

Amazing food and service!!! The hostess' and our server were so kind and attentive.

We chose to get menus instead of the buffet and the pulled pork sandwich was so good and a really good size. The fries were seasoned so well!! I wish the brisket sandwich was bigger but it was good nonetheless and the hush puppies were very good.
