    Rainbow Slush
    Toni T.

    I am giving a 3 stars because the combo meal was rung up al carte. I have been here in like 20 years. I had it picked up so can't say about service. Ambiance is outdoors the one in Wallingford no skates like back in the day. My order was an all American Beef Hot Dog combo comes with a soda did not substitute it with the slushy that's okay but as a combo that means to me one price. Well the hot dog had a price, the fries had a price and the slushy had a price $15 a bit disappointed for a returning customer after so many years.... The slushy was too sweet and I couldn't drink it at all. Instead of al carte rate because of the slushy they have charged the combo price then add the difference of the slushy

    I just get in from out of town, it's late. I order a burger with no ketchup. They literally only put ketchup, no lettuce, tomato, pickle, nothing. Just, how

    Looking to pick up a quick lunch I decided to give Sonic a try. Ordering at the drive-through was quick and easy. I liked that their burgers came with lettuce and tomato. I do wish that they had inside seating rather than sitting in your car on a cold day. In warmer weather they do have a outside seating area. As far as my burger and fries go it was typical fast food, nothing special.

    My favorite fast food

    I first had sonic in Texas and found my favorite fast food. I fell in love with their cherry limeade. I bug my parents daily when I visit to go to Sonic. Now I don't have to bug as much since Sonic migrated north to good ok Connecticut. I'm in addition to my cherry limeade I enjoy the tator tots with plain or chili cheese. The best combo! Today I opted for the chili cheese fries. Staff are friendly and greet customers with a cheerful hello and deep apologies if something is out. Love hearing that southern hospitality up here in the north. Nick was my gracious car hop and delivered my food with a smile. Letting me know if anything was wrong or missing just to call for him directly. Open air, can eat in your car or on their open air patio. No indoor seating.

    This sonic is horrible. Everything is always out of stock and their worker always have an excuse as to why they can't do things. They advertise rt44 as a slushie and they stated "a large is the biggest we have" "we don't have a button for that". The wait time for everything is astronomical in both the drive thru and the Bay Area. My mom had to send back her tea because she had no ice in the cup and she was argued with. I would recommend not going to this sonic if you don't need to.

    "Imitator, intimidator, stimulator Simulator, eliminator"…read more(Eminem) If ten state of the art golf simulators are your stimulators, you'll love a visit to Back 9 Social. And your visit will not be handicapped by a lack of gastropub like food and drink. Their golf simulators are very impressive and combine radar and camera technology to faithfully recreate some of the best courses in the world, including St Andrews, Pebble Beach, and 120+ others. A professional organization I belong to held a gathering there last night and had a great time. We ordered and paid for our drinks through their big bar through a QR code, but you can still pay the old-fashioned way with cash if you prefer. We had plenty of their pizzas which were quite yummy. Our golfers had a blast and I should point out that although some of the other customers I saw actually brought their own set of clubs, Back 9 can hook you up with their clubs for men, women, lefties, righties, and kids. And of course, plenty of tees and balls to whack into their high-definition screens. The facility is gorgeous, the golf simulators were amazing, the staff was helpful and friendly, and it was a very enjoyable experience.

    This place is a lot of fun, and we genuinely enjoy coming here, but our experience with management…read moreon multiple occasions has really put a damper on the whole establishment. We completely understand that the facility has every right to monitor alcohol consumption and prevent inappropriate behavior. Nobody wants people getting sloppy or disruptive, and we respect that. However, there's a much more professional and respectful way to handle it than what is done. We are unsure of her name, but the female manager present made us uncomfortable as she was constantly staring at our group throughout the evening instead of simply communicating expectations directly. The alcohol restrictions are also entirely ridiculous- I specifically was told by the bartender that I was being watched for alcohol consumption after having 2 Coronas in a time span of 1 hour and 45 minutes. The restriction on alcohol itself is not the main issue -- it's the way it is handled. We have felt watched and punished despite the fact that nobody in our group was loud, inappropriate, or intoxicated on multiple occasions. I also want to note that the bartenders have been spectacular and are always very nice. This is specially about the manager and the way she acts towards paying customers. When you're spending over $200 on the simulator alone, a little courtesy and respectful communication would go a long way. We really do like this place, but experiences like this make us hesitant to come back.

Our server was knowledgeable of gluten free options on the menu, which was great. They start every table with potato chips and a yummy aioli, truly addicting! For food, the filet mignon was perfection. A previous time I came, they had shrimp and scallops in a saffron cream with wild rice and market vegetables and it was DIVINE! The menu does change so that dish wasn't listed this recent time that we went. It would be amazing if they brought it back as a permanent dish!!! For drinks, I loved by Buzzin in Bikini Bottom cocktail! It is my favorite! My fiancé liked the Negroni and Julep as well, but loved my drink above those. I'd definitely recommend going to Six One Nine for a date night or dinner outing!

    The Wright Way's Yelp profile stood out when I did a Hamden area search earlier this year. Burgers…read more Wings. A High Overall Rating. All things I love. I recently found time to visit. Wright Way is small and more functional than nice, but there is some cool branding and the place has a very friendly vibe. I'm the only person who dined in, but while I was there, there were a number of people there for takeout orders. The Wright Team was very kind and accommodating while I there. I ordered a Fungi Burger, which was a double beef smash burger, grilled onions, sautéed shrooms, garlic sauce and Swiss Cheese on a standard bun. The smash burgers were not cooked to the point of char. For a double smash burger, it didn't look particularly big, but each of the components was very good. And the burger was better than the sum of its parts. The fries were good too. I also ordered a Small Wings, with dry rub and BBQ Sauce, and Alabama Sauce (a white sauce) on the side. We must have had a misunderstanding about the sauces, because they came with dry rub and all sauces on the side. Not a big deal. I sauced the wings at the table. The wings are smoked, but there wasn't a strong smoke flavor. They had the texture of smoked wings, but the outer texture was still good too. The meat wasn't dry at all. The Wright Way was nice enough to accommodate all my crazy sauce requests. Blue Cheese or Ranch. I tried both, and I'm going to tell you that a side of Alabama White Sauce is the way to go. A nice bit of horseradish. Very flavorful. I can definitely see returning even though I don't live in the area. If you live nearby, you should definitely visit and start exploring the Burgers, Sandwiches, Wings, Breakfast Sandwiches, etc. 4.5 Stars
