    Key lime pie

    Amazing service! I asked for a key lime drink I've seen all over the internet & they made sure to make it how I expected. The manager is the sweetest lady & checked to make sure I liked it before letting us leave. Best sonic I've ever been to.

    Stall number 5.

    It is quite busy right now (2:40 p.m.) so the service is a little bit slow. I don't mind. The beef hot dog I ordered is good and so is the strawberry milkshake! I like the new digital stalls. It's easy to see that they are getting your order correct.

    A cheeseburger combo meal for my daughter - cheeseburger with mayo, mustard and ketchup - medium fries and a medium Dr. Pepper. A premium dog combo for me - NY dog, medium tater tots and a medium coffee for me. Total including tax was $13.07. From the initial order - which had to be repeated several times - to cold and ill prepared food, tray 8 at stall 15 on Friday was just a bad experience at this Sonic Drive-In, located in Walterboro, South Carolina. In attempting our order, it had to be repeated several times. I tried ordering the Chicago Dog - which was advertised on the menu as well as on posters directly in front of the stall - the cashier advised that Sonic didn't sell the dog any longer. Moving from Chicago to New York, I ordered the NY dog combo, which included tater tots and a drink. I choose coffee - which turned out to be a Green Mountain blend. My daughter ordered the cheeseburger combo with fries and a Dr. Pepper. Her cheeseburger was ordered with mayo, mustard and ketchup. Food was cold upon delivery, very unsightly looking and generally inedible. Coffee was luke warm and nothing to write home about. I ended up dumping my entire meal while my daughter ate a few bites of her burger. Have you ever looked at a meal and said "I'm not eating that" before dumping it straight in the trash? That was my meal. No pride in appearance at this location. It was unsightly with trash and other garbage strewn about the premises. Not a good experience. William E. Lewis Jr. Vero Beach, Florida

    Upon arriving you'll see that the outside isn't kept up with very well. There's black stains on the outside walls, along with trash on the ground and dirty bathrooms. I've never had a bad experience with the staff though. So far every visit I've been satisfied with the customer service. (Not great customer service, just not bad). The food is inconsistent. Though I've never had a bad burger (they've always been juicy and flavorful), the tater tot's on the other hand will either be bland with no salt at all or so much it's like you're drinking straight from the salt shaker. The ice cream is another hit or miss, it's either smooth, thick, and creamy or very grainy which is an off putting texture in ice cream.

We pull up to be told that our tope 3 drink choices are all out of order. Ok whatever. Then we are asked to oull up to the door because they are making fresh fries. Ok, that's fine. We love some hot fresh fries so no problem! We proceed to sit there for LITERALLY 14 minutes and watch 3 other cars go through the line from behind us. We were watching the clock and my husband was about to go in at the 15 minutes mark when the lady came with our food. She apologized for the long wait. We start to pull off and I notice my large fries fill up HALF of the fries sleeve. I said you have got to be kidding me! Also they were warm fries, but definitely not straight from the fryer hot. I was ticked, but we were already running late from out 14 minutes wait. Ridiculous! If it happenes again you better believe that I will definitely be going back in a requesting a full container of fries!....

    We stopped here while driving to Florida, this was our first mistake…read more.. Sadly, the AI attendant was the highlight of the experience. After ordering, we pulled up to find multiple cars were already being pulled from the drive thru because food was not ready, and we got pulled too. After about 15 minutes of waiting, we went inside to see what the delay was and found out they had not even started making our food yet. After waiting a grand total of 30-45 minutes we finally got our meals. After we got our food we needed silver wear and napkins and everything was controlled behind the counter so you needed to ask staff, at one point my daughter went inside to ask for napkins and was completely ignored by the staff after several people made eye contact with her. This is by far one of the slowest and most mismanaged locations I've ever been to. I hate leaving a one star review, but in this case even tm this feels generous. All this greatly under shadows the meal itself. The food was fresh as it was being cooked when you ordered for some reason. The fries were seasoned well. If you want fresh food and are willing to wait for it, and can deal with in attentive staff you'll like this location otherwise stay away.

I noticed a BOGO sandwich deal on the Arby's app and decided to order my 2 favorite sandwiches. Unfortunately, your app glitched and refused to take my payment. I tried switching to a different card. It didn't work. I tried adding another card directly to the app. It didn't work. I tried closing the app and starting over. It didn't work. I tried restarting my phone. Still don't work. I tried finding an emergency number I could call to resolve the situation. Found nothing. I walked into the store and kindly tried to explain my situation to the cashier. All I wanted to do was copy the same order I was promised in the app and pay for it over the counter. She would have none of it. She didn't understand what was going on and said she needed to get her manager to help but her manager was "busy" in the back. She shouted to her manager in the back and while I could not understand what she said, it was clearly a dismissive "no" that made me feel unheard and like I was the problem. I asked again how I could resolve this issue and the cashier looked away and continued the front of not stepping in and helping me. After our conversation I spent another 15 minutes trying to get your mobile ordering app to actually take a mobile order and it would not. In the end, after spending 30 minutes trying to resolve your app's issues and one very dismissive conversation with an Arby's employee and her unhelpful manager, I left your establishment without even eating. I spent 30 minutes on a road trip lunch break and never even ate lunch! I cannot recall ever being so frustrated and disappointed at any fast food location. If this issue is not resolved tastefully and with customer care I will be extremely disappointed in Arby's as a company and how they view their customers.

They start you out with warm chips and spicy salsa. THEN the most delicious frozen margarita which was likely enhanced with triple sec or another orange liqueur. "Are you sure this is the house margarita?" I asked. Yep. My Pollo Ranchero was pounded thin, grilled and topped with onions, mushrooms and a light cheese sauce. Even the refried beans are a notch above. T ordered something called El Combo. I don't know what's in it, but suffice it to say it was served on two plates. A lot of food, which T ate and enjoyed. The restaurant appears dated to the point of being atmospheric. I felt like I was in Old Tijuana. They have a policy which management should definitely change: their payment system. You don't receive a check. The cashier simply tells you what you owe. As that doesn't fly with me I asked for a breakdown. And good thing! An honest mistake, but he over-priced my chicken. Don't be turned off by what looks like a tired strip mall. Park the car and go into the restaurant. Your meal will be worth it.

We've never tried Captain D's but Jeremy really enjoys fried fish. This seemed like something he could eat while driving, but alas they were out of fried fish, and about half of their menu including condiments such as ketchup and cocktail sauce. Nevertheless we were able to cobble together two meals, and neither of us had any complaints. Jeremy had fried shrimp and popcorn shrimp with hush puppies (I love how many restaurants in the south have these on their menu. These were perfect, if not a tiny bit too salty). I had chicken tenders (they actually had honey mustard dipping sauce, which is my preferred sauce when it comes to chicken) and some amazing cole slaw (not mushy). Even though we couldn't have several of our first choices (out of jalapeno poppers), what we did eat was crispy and delicious. I wouldn't mind trying Captain D's again, sometime in the future, when we're on yet another epic adventure. Sorry no pics. It was difficult to juggle the clambox containers on my lap in a moving vehicle.
