For some reason, the flavoring at this sonic is not the greatest. I'm not sure if they don't put as much in as they're supposed to or what, but none of the drinks have the flavor that they truly should have that we've gotten that other sonics. we've given them two opportunities now and have been disappointed both times. read more

I like chili dogs but this sonic always uses a teaspoon to measure how much they put on a dog. To day, I ordered and PAID FOR extra chili. I got the usual teaspoon amount. I give up on this sonic. Do not recommend. read more

This Sonic is a favorite! The service is on point, very friendly and considerate folks. The burgers are made to order and the onion rings are cooked to crunchy perfection. Also, they make a really good blended float! Definitely worth the drive from Hutto. read more

Idk why all the reviews for this location suck lol. I've never had a bad experience with them, both at the ordering window or the drive-thru. The staff are very friendly and I've never gotten a wrong order from them. Guessing people are just picky but y'all have to remember it's a large chain in a small town, mostly run by teenagers. read more

I got in an entire car accident with my drink, and it stayed intact. 5 stars for the whirlwind experience, and a pretty decent drink too! read more

HORRIBLE SERVICE Probably the worst managed sonic I've ever been to ! There has been so many times I come here and they won't even answer on the machine to take your order This is my first time going out of my way to write a review so that should tell you something ! read more

The wait is ridiculous I ordered a pretzel and a slushie 10 minutes go by I press the button to ask if their making it and they said yes it'll be just a minute 1.5 hours later it came out AND IT WASNT EVEN MY ORDER THEN THEY TOOK ANOTHER HOUR then I just left read more

This place has gone down the food is not the same anymore the last two times I've been there their tator tots are suppose to be golden brown but they were white and footlong hot dog hardly had any chili and tried calling manager both times and they never answered won't be going there no more instead I'll just drive to Hutto read more

Arrived here about 5 minutes to 9 pm hoping to get an oreo blast and was told, "we're not doing ice cream right now because we are cleaning the machine." Such a disappointm ent. read more

Guess there is an u spoken rule that you can not order from drive thru speaker. No one has ever answered to take my order the last 5 times I've tried and I've waited 10 minutes before I left. read more

Worst customer service ever. Whoever the little girl was talking over the intercom needs to learn how to listen to people before talking over them. She also needs to take a chill pill and learn that if she slowed down she wouldn't fuck up people's orders. To the other girl that yelled at me over the intercom needs to be fired. There's no need for it. Maybe train your people to listen to what the customer is saying instead of assuming. Little Miss Bernice should also be retrained. She's lucky she didn't end up wearing my order. They should just shut this sonic down. Nothing good comes out of Taylor. I wouldn't be surprised if I get food poisoning. read more

Let's start off with I wish I could give this sonic Negative stars because they sure do deserve them. This has to be the worse sonic in Texas, hello manager if you're reading this... get your god damn shit together. You should be fired! Let's start with service, lady taking my order was vocal and just straight up had an attitude. Second the food was gross chili dog tasted like last years hot dogs and tater tots were so greasy I could re use the grease to fry chicken. I mean my god don't get me started on the popcorn chicken either. Chicken was way under cooked. Now lastly my drink which was a French vanilla coffee, I thought this was one thing they couldn't fuck up. Hell no! That drink was terrible AF. Overall this place should be shut down immediately until further changes are made! I don't recommend anyone to go here unless you want terrible service and food. I rather go hungry then go here again! Sincerely, a PISSED OFF CUSTOMER! read more

the only star they get id for the drinks , the food is awful, i ordered fries and they where so soggy you can bend them into a full circle without breaking , also COVERED in oil not at all what is advertised. to make it even better it was at 1:30 not even close to the lunch rush hour. i was one of 5 cars there. the food is 95% of the time undercooked it's disappointing since i used to come here a lot as a kid. lastly service is great everyone is very kind and respectful. just get a drink here and skip on the food. read more

They got rid of the large sonic blast and are now selling the medium for the price as the old large sonic blast

Ordered via app picked up on stall. Missed tots but brought them right out. Taste great. Order was 2 Big Dill burgers, pickle fries, pickle slush and Corney dog combo with large tots and Reese's Oreo master shake. read more

Pulled in. Asked for a watermelon slush. Was informed they only came with Red Bull. This was odd as I've had this same drink for about 15 years. Opted for a cherry limeade. Waited 7 minutes. Left. No cherry limeade either. Sadly this isn't the first bad experience at this location. The Sonic in Hutto is pretty on point. But alas Taylor gets the short end of the stick once again. If the service was as good as the enthusiasm it would be even worse. I guess we're lucky there. read more

Be careful here I bit into raw chicken and burnt bacon. I don't think I have to say anything else. read more

Sonic Drive-In - Fast Food Near Me - Taylor, Texas

I have not had a single good experience at this specific location. For starters, I've never, yes never received a correct order. Every time there has been an issue with some or all portions of my order. They love to ignore the light ice option. Any flavor add on is clearly never present, and one time I received nerds in one of the drinks and the girl "couldn't" take it back due to COVID. The ender for me though came last Saturday when we ordered 3 drinks. We ordered using the app like we always do. The order went through fine and showed on screen, going through the motions except it stopped once it got to the kitchen. We pushed the button and informed the girl that our order went though and then disappeared. She ensured us that our order did go through but they were "swamped" (which it was busy). We continued to wait, calling it at the 30 minute mark. SONIC is always kind of hit/miss, but unless this specific location makes some serious changes we won't be back! read more

Samsung has chosen our city to build here. Are you going to insult them when they try out your business? Another order today speaks volumes on the quality of your food. Are you going to listen to managers how to make a certain food or are you going to treat each paying customer equal quality for the food they have ordered? Using less quality on one customer verses on another customer is bad service. Especially for senior citizens in Taylor that are on a fixed income. Well today the order was gross. Couldn't even feed it to my dog. God bless. Thank you for it. read more

I see the workers running around while being busy in the afternoon and the manager standing out back on the edge of his charger talking to somebody. Absolutely terrible. That manager needs to be helping his busy workers instead of using company time to talk to a friend. Victoria was amazing on pulling his slack making sure everybody was taken care of and had what they needed! She's a superstar!! read more

If I could give this place no stars then I would. We have lived in the area for 6 yrs and have given this sonic multiple chances. But it's just flat out terrible. Tonight our drinks were watered down and not even made correctly. The chicken was stale, and the French fries tasted like they were at least a day old. We waited 20 mins for $23 worth of food. read more

Went to sonic to get a milkshake today and I had to eat it with a spoon apparently they don't know how to make milkshakes yes I won't go there again read more

Sunday afternoon, I ordered ahead in the app. I ordered one grilled cheese sandwich and a Route 44 drink. I checked in and waited. I waited 17 minutes for my order. I was fuming! This happens every single time I go there. I won't be back if I can help it. You're either slow or short-staffed. Period. It's ridiculous. read more

We pulled up to the drive through and waited. Sat there for a few minutes. Talked to the order menu with no answer back. I backed up and pulled forward again. Waited for a few more minutes. Asked if anyone was there, again. Nothing. I gave up! As we pull away the only two employees working there appeared to be outside and upfront arguing with each other. So nice! I don't usually do reviews but I've yet to have a good experience at this Sonic and I've been multiple times. Today was the last straw! At least Taco Bell was happy to take my money and they got my order right, the first time! read more

Worst food in this town. Consistently poor victuals and bad service. Have nothing good to say about this awful fast food place. Avoid at all costs. read more

This sonic is the worse takes forever to answer when u press the red button Not only that the staff is rude I must come when everyone's in a bad mood.... read more

So when did sonic or maybe sonic in Taylor specifically start opening @ 10am on Sundays? Pulled in at 8:01, immediately activating the red button to order. I waited til 8:15, yes 15 minutes before someone came out to tell me they don't open til 10am on Sundays. Some kind of displayed changed hours would have been fairly nice so that EVERYONE knows about this ridiculous change. I was just baffled that it took someone 15 mins after pushing the button to come out and tell me. AND the person that came to tell me had just gotten dropped off for work lol. I would never recommend this sonic location to anyone. In all honesty if there was an option to choose 0 stars as a rating that would be my only option I'd choose at this point. read more

Rude girl taking my order. Ordered a number one and they put no mayonnaise, no ketchup, and no lettuce? I called back to tell them the problem and they brought out a small paper container with lettuce. What kind of sick joke is this? I will never be back. read more

The guy who brought out our food had blood and ooze from popping his zits we left our food there we will not be returning they have blue dolphins with kids meals read more

I usually don't review chains, as I expect very little from them. As someone whose first job was at a Sonic, this one is...weird. Every visit here there is something up. 1st: My first visit here I ordered a cherry lime aid and cheddar peppers with ranch at the drive thru. I waited a bit, and a male carhop comes out and informs me they are out of cheddar peppers. Okay, so I order cheese sticks with marinara. I wait a bit more, and he tells me they are out of marinara, but offers me BBQ sauce or honey mustard. Not wanting to dip my cheese sticks in either, I opt for the popcorn chicken and cherry limeaid. 2nd: This time they had everything I wanted, but the carhop was VERY over zealous. He kept pointing to his name tag and saying, "If you ever need ANYTHING, ask for me." and kept repeating it, which I thought was odd for a carhop to be doing. I could see if he was a manager. 3rd: Third visit went smoothely, but when I tipped the carhop he said, "Thank you, ma'am. You have no idea what this means to me. This goes a long way when you only make $2 and hour." I was flabbergasted that he would have the nerve to lie and say that he only made $2/hr. I didn't tell him that I used to carhop and I know they make at least minimum wage, but I made a mental note not to tip that liar again. 4th: Today was (almost) perfect. I simply ordered a medium cheese tot and a large cherry lime aid. When I drove off I attempted to put my straw into the cup, but it wouldn't go in, because they had filled the cup with ice, from top to bottom. So much so that I was practically stabbing my straw into a chunk of ice midway down, trying to get past it. I ended up sucking ice up through my straw, and got no drink until I got the straw to the very bottom. The ice was a very light shade of pink, so you know there was SOME liquid in there somewhere, but very little. I had always had people tell me "ask for no ice" or "ask for little ice because that's how they rip you off and only give you a tiny bit of soda and a TON of ice" but I've been going to Sonic all my life (Dad was a manager at one in my hometown when I was younger) and had never had that problem, until today. They gave me a flyer with my order, saying they were hiring all positions. I hope they fill them with good workers who do not lie or try to rip their customers off. UPDATE: I was at the bottom of my drink a few sips in, and I LOVE LOVE LOVE cherry lime aids. Not wanting to spend another $2-3 I had spent to begin with, a friend and I returned to the store, with the cup still full of ice, and explained the issue to a carhop, opening the lid for him. He immediately began shaking his head, looking very much not surprised, and said he'd take care of it right away. This lead me to believe this is a usual occurrence, at least as of recent. He brought me a new cup with more drink, and the normal serving of ice. I'm happy they at least did the right thing. read more

On August 1st we went to order at this Sonic which we used to get drinks from 2-3 times a week. I used the app and checked in. After 25 minutes sitting at the stall we still didn't have our order. I hit the red button to check and was told they'd made our order 5 times. I cancelled the order and asked for a refund. I called the manager later to make sure the refund was completed since it showed pending on my card. The manager assured me it would be removed after a hold. The transaction now shows complete. This location has awful reviews and customer service to match. read more

Ridicules wait time. Ordered 2 shakes....yes only shakes. Over 15min. WTF no reason for that. Yes they had other customers besides me but no an overwhelming flood of customers. read more

I like this chain, but something is very wrong here, or at least was on the Saturday when I visited. I started by trying to go through the drive-thru but after several minutes of waiting it appeared no one was answering there. So I pulled in to a drive-in spot and pushed the button. It was a while before that was answered, but I spent the time polling my kids for their orders, and when the order time came I was ready. I made my long order fairly directly, and then when I was finished the server said "hold on a minute, what was that?" Somehow the entire order had been missed, and I had to repeat it, the second time more slowly. When finally the order was made, it was time to wait. I paid with my card at the drive-in card reader, checked in on Yelp, tuned in a football game on the radio, and waited. And waited. And.... waited. It was 19 minutes after my Yelp check-in, and around 30 minutes after I had first arrived at Sonic, that the woman in the drive-in spot next to us, who had been there before we pulled in, left because she had been waiting too long. This was not encouraging, but I thought it had been so long already, it can't be much longer... right? Fortunately, I was mostly right, and after another 10 minutes or so we finally got our food. The carhop was very sweet and apologetic, offering us a big handful of peppermints for our trouble. And the order was correct, and the food was fresh and tasty, so I can't fault them too badly in that area (though they did forget the straws for our drinks.) Having the order right at last and being sorry for taking so long saved them from a one-star review in my book... maybe this was a one-time fluke, but I would take care here in the future if you are trying to pick something up in a hurry. read more

First time I went there we had to wait more than an hour to get my food and it was not bussy, The second time all the fryers were down and so we just left read more

My two most recent experiences at this location (and this from someone who generally likes Sonic): 1. waited 5 minutes for a response after pressing the order button; saw no sign of life; left without ordering; 2. after a long wait, ordered unsweet tea with easy ice and lime for my wife. After at least a 10 minute wait, we received tea with the cup filled with ice and one small piece of lime for which we were charged an extra 50 cents. We will never, ever visit this location again. If they can't get iced tea right, how can they possibly get a food order correct? This place really deserves 0 stars. read more

This sonic is terrible. You wait in line for 15 minutes and still nobody comes out to help you there's service is the worst I've seen.And if you do get a chance to order you still wait to get your food for another 15-30 minutes so you then leave. read more

The only reason I gave 1 star was because there was no zero star. The chicken strips were evidently cooked earlier in the week. Tough and even worse luke warm, the Texas toast was soggy, the gravy was paste although it came in handy repairing some loose wallpaper. The tater tots were at least warm. I have learned to expect very little in Taylor and Sonic confirmed that again. They should change management- maybe visit a Sonic to see how serve food and give customers a little quality. I will never go back and i wouldn't serve what they serve to the homeless in the park or the hungry ducks on the lake across from this sonic read more

Terrible service and people hung up on me many times they even took the phone off the hook hole in my drink seriously..

We've been here a few times during Happy Hour. And, while I know they are very busy, our drink order has been wrong every single time.

I received excellent service today. My carhops name was Adolpho and he was terrific. My food was very delicious. I don't know if Sonic values it's employees or not but if they do they need to keep this one. read more
