I keep trying different Sonic locations because the one closest to me is not great, and my current obsession of dirty drinks is limited. I ordered extra fruit that I paid extra for, specifically, cherries that were not added. It's not a huge amount but, the principle that bums me out. Also, the pretzel was overcooked, like almost burnt. So, I will continue searching for great "dirty drinks". read more

Sonic Drive-In - Fast Food Near Me - Westland, Michigan

I ordered on the app. It was more than 10 minutes after the time the app said it would be ready, when I asked for the reason behind the delay, the staff member just said that "it takes time" when I finallyndid get my food, it was cold. read more

We literally drove through the drive thru the last time we tried to order We sat at the order menu for up to 5 min. no one said a thing... As we slowly rolled up to the window we saw 2 employees hovered over the register like they were trying to hide!! I don't know if the many cars behind me got service... This is not a walk in restaurant so I'd say ambiance doesn't exist if you never even get to order read more

Sonic Drive-In - Brown. Lettuce dried hamburger - Fast Food Near Me - Westland, Michigan

Shut it down immediately! I know it sounds dramatic but the service here is beyond terrible. There are a bunch of lazy teens and young adults workings and the food is just terrible. I ordered mozzarella sticks and the cheese was melted all on the outside ... old ass corndogs that's been burnt, slushes are nothing but syrup, and shakes are a joke. It's ridiculous I just drive to Dearborn if I'm craving sonic now. Whoever owns this place clearly doesn't care and is just trying to keep things afloat. read more

1-3-26 at the Westland, Michigan store #619, I ordered a kids happy meal with a cup of water picked for the drink, a bourbon caramel iced coffee, which I paid $3.74 for separately on its own. They gave me my coffee, and the kids meal, but no water/drink with that. When I asked him about the water for the kids meal, he said it doesn't show I had water for the kids meal (which my emailed receipt CLEARLY shows a mini water under the kids meal!). He said that my coffee drink was the drink that came with the kids meal. This is not true because I picked and paid full price for the coffee drink separately! Plus, a coffee drink was NOT even an option for the kids meal when I chose the drink. I told him once again that the coffee drink is separate and I picked a cup of water for the kids meal drink. He again said it doesn't show on the receipt that I picked water for the kids meal (not true). He stood there arguing with me over a cup of WATER, and ultimately would NOT give me the mini cup of water that should have come with the kids meal! So we paid full price for a kids meal, but didn't get the drink that was supposed to come with it. It was just a cup of water!! Very disappointing, uncalled for and rude. read more

The burger tasted great. The corn dog was typical corn dog fare. Not much variation. :) The tater tots were legit. That's where the good ends and the disappointment takes over. I ordered a peanut butter and banana shake, but there was no peanut butter in it. The banana shake tasted good, but wasn't what I wanted. We ordered three drinks, pulled away from the window after waiting in line over 20 minutes, and we had no straws. I pulled up to a curbside carhop spot and noticed they all had signs on them saying only the drive thru was open, so I couldn't ask for them to bring straws out. I definitely wasn't going to wait in line 20 more minutes for straws with a shake melting in the car. I called the store, but it disconnected at least 10 times in a row. If I was rating on customer service only, I'd give 1 star. (Or a negative star--wait, that's not an option.) Finally, I walked up to the building to find nary an employee. I cautiously walked in the front door and shouted, "Hello?" a few times, but nobody answered. I peeked around the corner, saw people, and tried to get their attention. They still didn't see or hear me. There were straws on the counter, so I took 5 steps to get to the counter, took 3 straws, and was walking out when one of the male employees started yelling at me. I nicely tried to explain my situation. He could have said whatever he wanted to say politely. There is no excuse to talk to someone the way he talked to me, let alone a paying customer who just needed straws that should have been in the bag. Then he scathingly said, "I hope you don't get Corona!" as I walked out, mumbling under my breath about his lack of character. Pity. The burgers are good and I love the carhop, old-time vibe, but I won't return here. Ever. read more

Sonic Drive-In - Straw-make sure they give you one after waiting 30 minutes in the drive thru - Fast Food Near Me - Westland, Michigan

set in the online order spot for almost half an hour, and nobody came out to give us our food. and by the time we got the food, it was cold and melted. never coming here again read more

Service sucked, food wasn't good, and overall this location has lost its touch. Hope they do a re vamp on customer service and food quality soon. read more

Unless you want the worst service experience of your life, then steer clear of the Westland, MI, Sonic drive-in. True rating is a NEGATIVE million stars! I've visited this location 4 times in the past month to pick-up an online order & each visit has been worse than the previous visit. First visit (ever) resulted in a 20 minute wait for my order after checking in on their app. They don't respond to the red "call" button, gave me a burned burger, didn't include the ketchup packets that I requested in my online order & gave me no napkins. I had to telephone the store to request the ketchup (again) & waited an additional 5+ minutes for that to be delivered. Second visit I waited 15-20 minutes after checking in. This time I made the server wait while I checked my order & big surprise, no ketchup packets again - which I made them go back inside for. Thankfully the burger wasn't burned this time. Third visit I only ordered a milkshake online, but still waited at least 15-20 minutes after checking in. Fourth & FINAL visit, the app kept telling me the spot # that I entered was invalid (which it was NOT). After 10 minutes of this nonsense, I pressed the red "call" button - no response. I called the store several times & they never answered the phone. I tried to locate an entrance to the store, which does not exist. I drove to a different spot & checked in, waited another 25 minutes & never received my order. Finally found a phone number for their corporate office customer service & demanded a full refund immediately, along with providing details of each visit's experience at this location. I will NEVER go to the Westland, MI, Sonic EVER again - they've lost my business for life! read more

Went to sonic basically cause I wanted some ice cream and didn't feel like going to DQ,I ordered the 3 piece chicken strips with fries The strips as if they put them in the microwave to heat them up on top of looking like from the bottom of the bag and so did the fries. read more

This was my first ever time at sonic and it will probably be the last. I ordered ahead and still waited at least 15 minutes. The slushies had a mess dripping down the sides of the cup. Then I get home and take out the food to find the fries only half filled, I mean come on..... well gotta go make a second dinner because my kids are still hungry. What a waste of time and money read more

Sonic Drive-In - Fast Food Near Me - Westland, Michigan

Pulled up just after 10am, when they advertise and have signs up that the stalls open. I was told they don't serve in stalls any more. I got in the drive through line, and after some minutes was told they were busy and I needed to wait to place an order. After 5 minutes I got the hint and left. read more

It was okay but me and my brother got jumbo popcorn nuggets and they were basically all breading and crunchy but all of the other food was fine. read more

The guy working the morning on Saturday, July 9th charged me for a combo but then forgot to add the hash browns. This would normally have been fine, I noticed almost asap and just went back to politely ask for them but then the guy copped an attitude and lied saying he only rang me up for the burrito and drink (spoiler, even though your dumbass didn't give me a receipt there's a thing banks have called a mobile app). Normally I wouldn't give a f, but the audacity of this loser and how just blatantly rude he was was insane. Like dude, it's not my fault your life sucks, I was nothing but polite to start. Gonna message corporate out of principle. read more

I went to Sonic today after a L-O-N-G hiatus away from them and ordered 2 of their spicy chicken slingers. Lemme start by saying they were the ABSOLUTE WORSE (hands down) chicken sandwiches I've EVER had! The amount of spicy sauce on them both was hidden under pickle... literally. Secondly, the chicken was so THIN it only had one side. It was fried hard as a brick and the bun was tragically hard. It was 10:00 in the morning for god's sake!!! There was no rush. The potato tots were ice cold; not even warm. I could've chilled my drink with them. I instantly remembered why I haven't been there in two years. I can walk there from where I live and I avoid them like the plague. Their ENTIRE menu is crappy at best. Do yourself a favor, if you go there DO NOT, I repeat, DO NOT order the slingers. I guess getting your food HOT is a special order. read more

See all

My husband and I visit once a month or so and have never had a bad meal. It's not healthy, but the food is quick and tasty. You can find plenty of burgers, chicken and fish sandwiches, hot dogs, fries, onion rings, breakfast sandwiches and milkshakes and slushes. I don't necessarily recommend the onion rings, but the tater tots have never disappointed. I love the quarter pound cheeseburger. Very filling for the price. It's nice to have the option to either drive through or pull up to a spot and have a staff member bring your food. They have great coupons and deals if you download their app. Again, not health food, but a great place to stop for a quick burger and shake! read more

When we arrived here today it seemed really nice. We have rarely had issues today. My sister is a vegetarian and basically can only order a grilled cheese sandwich today. Grilled cheese pictured was what we received. She tried to eat it but it was gross, soggy, and not even grilled all the way. When we asked for a replacement, the restaurants attitude changed. Evidently they "changed" how they make them. They simply pop the bread in a toaster and call THAT a grilled cheese sandwich. When I tried to explain it wasn't even toasted well, she got exasperated and asked if she wanted something else. No. I need a replacement that's made correctly. She said she would have them make it on the grill this time. Which we received the sandwich, with a snide here. As if I was inconveniencing the waitress by having them fix a sandwich. I mean. It's not really worth the 30$ we paid for the food. They have no healthy options either. At least McDonald's has something semi healthy to pick. read more

Sonic Drive-In - Grilled cheese sandwich - Fast Food Near Me - Westland, Michigan

Tried to order a brownie batter shake and a chocolate chip cookie dough shake. The lady told me "we don't sell either of those shakes." This woman literally refused to let me order the shakes unless I called them by their "official" name, the Master Blast. Are you kidding me? You knew what I was talking about, why hold up the line instead of just saying "do you mean a master blast?" Gave me attitude when I pulled up to the window. Won't be returning again. read more

The food is absolutely delicious though the service could be a little bit better but overall I love love LOVE Sonic

This place has gone downhill in the last 3 months... It used to be a great place but the service and execution have disappeared. The app allows you to place an order then park in any stall to have the order brought to you (simply the in the stall number on the app). Now? Some days you can order ahead in the app, some days you can't. Some days your order goes through and the associates simply won't bring you your order unless you call them. My last app order? 25 minutes- and I had to call them to remind them! I'm done! I'm done with them. read more

Went to sonic yesterday august 17th around 8pm we pulled into the drive in spot to order. We ordered the all American hot dog meal with a large cherry vanilla lime coke and tator tots with 3 ranch's , a small strawberry shake, and a medium strawberry cheesecake shake. We went to pay and our screen went black and had to flag a worker down in the parking lot. she proceeded to bring us our food which was my meal and my strawberry cheesecake shake but not my cherry vanilla lime coke which was supposed to come with my meal. I assumed she was going to bring it out with the strawberry shake my sister ordered and she did not.I had to tell her she forgot my drink that came with my meal and also my ranches she came back with a melted cherry vanilla lime coke that looked like it had been sitting for an hour and there were no limes in site. My sister ended up not getting a strawberry shake which is what she ordered but a Oreo cheesecake shake. We didn't realize until we were down the street and had to turn around and wait 20 mins in the drive through. we got up to the window lady seemed very confused and like she didn't know how to do her job. She argued with me and ended up just throwing limes in my melted drink and giving it back to me.( I didn't even drink it I went home and dumped it out it was disgusting) My sister still never got the correct drink either they again gave her a strawberry cheese cake shake instead of just a regular damn strawberry shake she didn't like the crust bits in it and threw hers out as well. We ended up just leaving and decided we were never gonna come back to this location especially not at 8 which defeats the purpose bc that's when their shakes are 1/2 off. If it didn't make me rate this 1 star to post the review I would have rated our experience a 0. read more

I come get everyone in a while since I live close by and I've never really had any serious issues before besides the drive through line is always SO SO long. But today I went specifically for an Oreo ice cream cone. Unfortunately they were all out, which I was super bummed about since that's the only reason I came. I settled for a blast. I get home and this is what I find... a hair struck up under the lid of the cup. See photo below, ew. read more

Sonic Drive-In - Fast Food Near Me - Westland, Michigan

Service is consistently not great each of the 3 visits I've had in the drive thru. I'm not a Sonic regular, so I don't know the ends and outs. This last visit there is a promotion that states a free small shake when you buy a cheeseburger or certain coney dog. So I ordered the coney and a couple other items. The staff person never asked what type of shake I wanted so I asked her about it. She stated you have to ask for the promotion or they aren't going to offer it. This was the most backwards thing I've heard regarding something that is listed on the menu board The visit before they staff person rang up my items separately instead of in the combo I asked for and stated it was cheaper. It wasn't and I held the line up for her to redo the order and it was cheaper the way I ordered. It's apparent that they are high schoolers or young adults that received mediocre training and I get that. Just be aware of what the promotions are and what you ordered if you dine here. read more

I went there yesterday with some friends they not only got our order wrong but didn't even get all of our order down after having us repeat it a good 5 times. They also had our ice cream just sitting out with everyone else's orders and gave it to us melted. The food tasted completely old when we got it They gave a bit of an attitude too. Truly wasn't a good experience and I was quite excited to have some sonic after not having any in a few years. read more

The prices on the signs at the drive-through are incorrect and when I questioned it, I was told the first time that it was $18 for some thing that should've been to 12 before taxes and then when I question a manager I was told it was 16 something so the price dropped two dollars still not what it should've been but he told me that it's because prices change here all the time and he doesn't know why well maybe if prices are changing so much you should have a better reflection on your signs. Their service is also slow as hell. I've been sitting in line in the drive-through for five minutes, and we have not moved. read more

So disappointed. Had my 5 y.o. Granddaughter with me. Ordered online, at 8 pm, was there by 8:15, watched the order til it was "ready" on the screen and NOTHING CAME OUT for 15 mins. When I pressed the red button he said "For Debra?" I said yes and he said "Hold on". 20 minutes later my food came out. When we got home it was all ice cold. Totally wasted $15 and I'm on Social Security. My burger had several tablespoons of mayonnaise on it and my granddaughters corndog was pitiful. I understand it's hard to find people for fast food these days but, that's getting to be a pretty lame excuse for this kind of rip off. read more

this has to be one of the worst Sonics i have ever been to. the service is way too slow. it seems like they only take one order at a time and when they are done they go to the next customer which makes the waiting way too long and are losing business because of it. then when you get your order the drinks are flat the portions are smaller than usual and also cold . this place was not this way 6 months to a year ago it has really gone down hill. i only gave it a 1 star because that is as low as i could go. i tell all my friends to stop going to that location read more

This sonic sucks. They close at 11 PM at night, we were in the drive-thru before 11 and the lady began taking our order, she went silent after. She stopped responding to our order till after 11 PM so she could say they were closed. That is the worst service I've ever received. The people in the car all work in a restaurant and know to never act in the manner she did. 0/10 rating. read more

We each had the $2.99 deep fried Oreos with ice cream! Do I really need to say how delicious that was? Best dessert in town.

Went to the Sonic Drive-In in Westland Michigan today. After paying for my order I realized it cost more than I had calculated in my head. There's no public door to the building and I mistakenly walked into the kitchen where the car hops go. It was filthy the floor the door everything. Realizing I was in the wrong area I stood back at the drive-thru window and ask the cashier why my food cost more than I calculated? She said there had been an increase in pricing. But the menus had not changed. So beware you're going to pay more than you think. PS I told her she should relay the message to her manager that that was false advertisement whether she did or not I don't know. Beware! And let's hope they give that restaurant a thorough cleaning. read more

Where to begin, *Stalls where closed for delivery *waited in drive thru for over 45 minutes: *Burgers where cold *Chilli Cheese tater tots obviously microwaved. * Served with no Fork or spoon * No valid number to call the manager, had to escalate to Corporate * approx 7 employees sitting at the water cooler enjoying some social time *Drive thru attendee said they where short staffed. Used to work fast food in my youth, for a mere 3.35 / hr, me and two girls where able to handle the midnight and 2am rush with no issue. This is un-excusable. If fast-food restaurant employees are demanding 30k a year to work what was otherwise widely known as a teenager job, then do your damn job, stop f*ing around and getter done. read more

Normally I never go to places like this for food but after a two mile hike I decided to treat my kids to a shake. My daughter then asked if she could get a hot dog so I said yes. This is the type of food they send out to kids?!?!?!?! Are you kidding me? I wouldn't even serve that to my dog! I can't imagine the type of people they hire that thought this was ok to serve! Disgusting! Lesson learned! read more

Sonic Drive-In - Kids hot dog - Fast Food Near Me - Westland, Michigan

Went around 830pm, the staff didn't want to serve us, took forever at drive thru to be noticed. ordered two blasts and two slushes, both blasts were missing the added cookie pieces. it was caramel and vanilla ice cream. VERY DISAPPOINTED. the one slush was made correctly and the small slush had a pump of blue flavor. tasted like water. TERRIBLE QUALITY. we paid $26 for stuff we ultimately threw out. read more

We first go to a stall to order,we are told it's only drive thru right now. So, we go get in line. While we are in line we see two cars pull up to the stalls and order, yes we can hear them. Now, we have wasted 20 minutes from stall to the drive thru. We get up to the window and they quote the wrong order. We now have to wait for them to get our order . We get our food and drive home and we have COLD BURGERS! Ridiculous! Won't be back! read more

My husband and I went tonight for a quick dinner. His back is a wreck and this way he did not have to get out of the car but we still got to go out. This chain is uber popular down south and my nieces and nephew have dragged me here a time or two in Missouri. From those experiences I can highly recommend Cherry Limeades :). James is also familiar having not always been a Michigan guy. First I must say James is a tater tot fan. The fact that they are an option instead of fries is aces in his book. It was full but not packed on a Wednesday night and we found an open slot on the first pass through. Our service was speedy and friendly. We each got super Sonic burger combos. For me, a double burger is a must. James of course got tots, I had fries. We stuck with basic on drinks and got Diet Cokes. Neither one of us is a shake or slush with food person. The drink selection was awesome, lots of teas and a huge variety of pop. I was happy to see Sprite Zero as it is hard to get a drink other than water that is caffeine and sugar free (a must for my mom). You can also upgrade to slushes or shakes. We devoured our food. We both found the burgers happy. We agree Culver's is better but that these are quite respectable, well wrapped too, which is vital for eating in the car. James' tots were hot and crisp as were my fries. All in all pleasing and fun. After we were done, we looked at each other and said "dessert?". I had a small caramel milkshake and he indulged in a peanut butter fudge one. His, of course, was better but both were good. A happy little adventure. Call me a sheep but I know what I like. read more

Been to this Sonic a few times for different things. The good, Had the breakfast burritos once those were pretty good. I had the Sonic blast a few times those are very very good. The bad, their chili dogs Worst in the state of Michigan. The french fries were below average. I only give this 2 stars because the service is way to slow, I think this is why they appear to always busy because the line don't move. If your The 4th car in line you will wait at least 20 -25 minutes even just for ice cream drink. It is what is I won't reccommend you go there but I won't reccommend you don't either. read more

We received no sauce with anything we ordered even after paying extra and shortly after my family and I ate we all were very very sick!

This is the 3rd time in a row i have come to this location and their ice cream machine is down for the night. Its only 10:15pm yet they dont have ice cream. I just dont understand it.....You're Sonic....thats kinda what yall do....? No? Anyways, i gave you the 1 star because yall tots actually do slap. Thanks. read more

This Sonic is fun to go to. It is kept clean and neat. It is difficult to access sometimes during the winter months. The lights at the intersection need to be upgraded. Heading east or south is fine. Heading west or north is a little tricky. Exercise caution. The food is fresh and well made. Their selection list is super long but worth the read. I enjoy the burgers, hot dogs and chicken bites. The chicken bit sauces are tasty without too much heat - but they aren't for little children. It's older teens and adults - with the exception of the barbecue sauce but that has some bite to it too. The drinks are sassy and cold. They serve them up right. There seems to be a little difficulty with their microphone and speaker system. Sometimes they can hear fine and sometimes you can hear fine but there are times when there are frequent interruptions. They soldier through, though. read more
