Stopped by for a quick bite in Yuba out for the Ballers end of the season weekend. Grabbed the All-American Double Smash combo. It's been a minute since I have been to Sonic's. Still dig the old school drive-in feel here. The look and feel gives me that back in the day vibe. The burger and fries came out hot. Had an unsweetened iced tea. Burger juicy and flavor with the bacon and cheese. The jalapeño ranch was a great touch dipping some of the burger but really good in the fries. Service was quick and only about 10 minute wait. Good location with friendly service. read more

Sonic Drive-In - All-American Bacon SONIC Smasher Combo - Burgers Near Me - Yuba City, California

This was my first visit to this Sonic location, and it went well. The food and service were both good. I ordered an All American Double Smasher with large tots for $12.99 through the application and got a free Sonic Double Smasher Cheese Burger too. I can't complain about a deal like that. Both burgers were, hot, fresh, and cheesy. The tots were crispy and my carhop game me some extra sauces for free. All the food tasted great. It didn't take very long for the kitchen to cook my food. My carhop delivered it faster than I expected. This Sonic checks all the boxes. Good food, good service, and good deals. read more

Went on a family vacation and love this Sonics. We've been coming here everytime for yearsss! Love the real fruit slushes! Their slushes stay frozen even in the ugliest weather. The pretzel twist is soft but has like a crisp sweet crunch layer on the outside? Cheese dipping sauce is very similar to a thick nacho cheese. A little heavy on the salt so dust some off. The tater tots are a little on the soggy side. Chili was good! This location has amazing service especially having large orders, they are on it! Props to them! I'm not sure why people are giving negative reviews read more

Not much to say. My chili dog looked like it was pictured but seemed crazy salty. Not like they added extra salt but like it was the cheapest of cheap ingredients. My shake was delicious tho. It's almost like fast food has declined to the point where they all pretty much taste the same; regrettable. read more

Never really been a big fan of Sonic and previously the Yuba City location was pretty gnarly with a dirty location and veryyy questionable food quality. I have been here 3 times this year (2026) and I am so impressed by the turnaround! The store has been clean every time, every staff has been helpful and polite, and they have some pretty good deals for hot freshly prepared food! I ALWAYS get hot fries and nuggs here! Look- it's fast food, but for what it is I give it 5 stars and it's really one of the better drive thru burger joints in the area! I actually went through the drive thru but went to the park and eat area... staff came by to see if I needed sauces or anything, what?! Awesome experience at YC Sonic read more

Told us they couldn't take our order and then told us to go through the drive through. Then wouldn't take our order through the drive thru. The most ghetto sonic I've ever been to. They don't wanna work and I saw them pick up food off the floor and not wash their hands then go back to making orders. Jaysen was extremely rude and was the one who originally told us to go through the drive through and then would not take our order. read more

No indoor dining, but that's just Sonic. The food was fresh and tasted great, the staff were also kind and the tables were clean. Public restrooms were locked however, I had to ask an associate. Overall, I think it is a great place to visit. read more

Jaysen was super rude. I've never experienced service like that. I asked for extra which I paid for and he told me "I put way more than I should in there you should be good with that, you don't need anymore" Totally rude and uncalled for. read more

So far every time I have been here, I have received great service. It doesn't matter if it's an early morning pass through or a late night snack, the drive-through staff stay professional and focused. I love how it feels when you go here because depending on the time of day, you will be met with all types of people. The food is great! My family and I usually get sides and drinks and we are always happy with it. My particular favorite is the cherry limeaid. I love that they are a fast food joint, but also someplace that you can hang out and catch a glimpse of how it may have looked like in the 50s and 60s. I also really appreciate the selection of drinks and sides because we don't get that anywhere else. They're slushy and drinks are some of the best out there. This place always comes in clutch when my family and I are craving something cold and refreshing. Sure, you can get that from a corner store soda, but why not try something different like a slushy with nerds in it. Coming to this place and will continue to come here. read more

So stopped in YC for a babyshower and decided to get a strawberry slush. We went through the drive thru and was assisted by the most beautiful soul I've ever encountered in a fast food restaurant. Destiny pretty much sang to us. She was such a delight. Very welcoming and sounded like someone who genuinely loves making others feel great. She could turn anyone's day around. Keep spreading that positivity and beautiful vibe around. read more

Ordered a milkshake, fries and chili cheese hot dog and my sister and her husband ordered hamburger , onion rings and sodas. We continued our ride to Chico. Everything was good but what happened to the hot dog? it was the absolute worst! I took one bite, told my sis she would want to taste it and she agreed it was terrible! it tasted like a Vienna sausage! DO BETTER! read more

Service sucked. They didn't answer the speaker at all so we had to park at a stall. They wouldn't give us plain ice at first, then they caved and gave us just one cup. Then the side of chili came in a little boat and more than half of it was spilled in the bag read more

I will say when I come here for a burger, it's generally fresh, but the price is insane. I paid $36 for a value meal, a plain hamburger and another drink. Not worth it. read more

Five stars for Tanya(sp?). Flight was delayed for hours today and got to sacramento way later than originally planned. Stopped at sonic on the way to Chico. Tanya was kind and pleasant. Even labeled the kids meals for us. After a stressful day of travel, Tanya made it a little easier read more

Service was slow. They had these weird self order windows that had this red button that was screaming Press me! Below the button it said "Press to start ordering." We pressed it and waited for ten minutes and gave up. We decided not give up on Sonic and went through the drive through. Then I got an amazing cherry slushy. read more

This place sucks I got a cherry limeade it's not good. They tried to charge me like almost 7 dollars for a plain cheeseburger and I had to cancel that. I just think they charge too much in their food and their drinks are bad now I will not be going back and I like the cherry limeade. read more

I went today for lunch, the lady that took our order was very nice and the rest of our food came out fine but this isn't a blt, there is one piece of bacon folded in half and the lettuce does not look fresh at all. Very disappointed read more

The Sonic chain is dead to me because they took away malts (how hard is it to keep a can of Carnation malted milk powder on hand???) but I needed something and sonic was the only quick accessible place around. Last I heard they use real ice cream in their shakes. So I got a chocolate shake (that would have been a chocolate malt if they did things right). A medium shake with tip was $8.50. I tried to I drink it through the straw but it was too thick. When I got to a place where I could pop the lid and use the spoon they provided, it became abundantly clear this was in fact soft serve, not ice cream. It was ok for what it was. The attendant that brought it out was nice but a quick google check has confirmed they use soft serve now. I would have gotten onion rings too but my last onion ring purchase was a huge rip off and didn't want to chance that again TL;DR Sonic is still dead to me. read more

YC Sonic appears to be suffering from employee apathy. We used the drive through and ordered 4 hot dogs (no 8) with no onions or ketsup. 1. The girl on speaker spoke so fast you could hardly understand her. 2 She seems not to know what no. 8 on menu is and kept saying is that a coney island foot long. Went back and forth on that. Finally, we got our order and when we got home all the hot dogs had ketsup and onion's on them. Ketsup also made them soggy and were cold. Fries ordered were good. While waiting also noticed a lot of chit chat among employees and order was slow when it appeared they were already prepared. read more

I visit to this drive-in was extremely disappointing. We purchased a grilled cheese sandwich and it wasn't toasted just lukewarm. My wife had popcorn, chicken, and it tasted really bad. I don't know what has happened to sonic. It used to be a great place to have food. We're sorry we went. One star read more

On 8/26/ 2023 I ordered food and dessert for my family. There was every annoying issue with the food possible which is OK it's fast food. What do you expect but when I called the store to speak to a manager, a young lady answered stating she was the assistant manager. She wouldn't let me get through a sentence basically told me she could do nothing about it didn't care left, and actually said to cuss words. I get it she doesn't like her job but that's really not my issue. One of the cuss words was a slur that I took great offense to. Sonic really used to be an American pastime. It's really disappointing what it has become in our town. Save the money in the headache. read more

The person that I ordered from their English was so bad I had to repeat my order five times. Then she still got it wrong. And a hamburger taste like it's got some really bad meat in it.! I would call and complain, but I'm afraid that they wouldn't even understand what the heck I was saying obviously at Mygrant. read more

Sonjia i believe her name was, was so very rude, came up to my window read off my order which was fine than snatched my card out of my hand, said be right back with a bunch of attitude. Came back got my receipt and left. Maybe someone should have a talk with her before she makes customers not want to come there anymore. read more

We love coming to Sonic because we get the Nostalgia bringing our hot rod in and having a CarHop however right now to cope with the car hops are not on roller skates and the parking lot's been a little bit messier than usual yeah I know it's a CarHop but it's like your main dining area and they should have somebody Police Department lot a little bit more for cleanliness friendly staff service has been kind of slow but still we come here for the Nostalgia of it with a hot rod read more

Unorganized and clueless staff. This place needs help. I waited in line for 25 min. Most lunch breaks are only 1/2 hour. Not to mention there was no one in front of me and somehow the people behind me got their orders before me. Thanks for wasting my lunch time. read more

I don't know why I keep going back. Every time it's nothing but disappointing. Wrong items or wrong order completely. Long waits. Mediocre food at best. And today I'm told to "wait a sec" at the drive thru order station. 5 minutes later I back up and move in front of the speaker to activate the bell again. And I'm told to "wait a sec" again. A couple minutes later I have had enough and drive away. Round the corner and no one at the drive up window and two employees inside giggling away at who knows what. So I'm done. read more

Went there last friday and ordered the promo the jr drouble stacker and a chery limeaid with extra cherries. What i got looked nothing like the picture the bum was burnt the burger had no cheese sauce and the patty was out of this world d not in a good way. I was charged extra for cherries that i didnt recieve...i didnt even get one. Oh and lets not forget that they fly these people out to other stores for training. Obviously quality control is not a top priority for this store. Wont be returning for a very long time. read more

I loved my burger n fries! Tons of ice in my tea just the way I like it!! Great job guys!! If your ever in Yuba City you need to stop in and get you some!! read more

Every time we order at Sonic, it takes 15 minutes for someone to place your order in the drive thru. Just pure silence for 10-15 minutes. You drive up to pay and receive the wrong order repeatedly. Take your money elsewhere. There's kids running this place and a girl who practically dresses up like a clown screaming at you thru the mic after waiting for ten minutes. They're unprofessional and it's too much. read more

Sloppy and very slow. They take forever for my order to come out even if I order ahead.

Didn't ranch for chicken tenders, ketchup for tots or anything to dip mozzarella sticks. Remembered why I haven't been by in a while. Ended up going elsewhere for dessert. read more

Decent place to stop and get a quick burger. Great place to stop and get a yummy slushy, cream slushy, or ice cream shake on a hot day!!! And of course there are a ton of flavors to choose from. This place is a classic old-school drive-in. You can park in the car port order from the sign at your window and have a gal on rollerskates bring your food out to your car. Or you can drive-thru like todays modern pull-up order, move ahead, and go fast food drive-thru. Or you can park your car get out, order at any of the window order stations in the covered cement picnic area and have a rollerskater bring you your food and drinks. The cheesburger i ordered was decent. No complaints. Fast food was what i was looking for on my drive to Chico, and Sonic was my stop. 1st time trying it. I love that you can order tots instead of fries, cuz i like tots too! The chicken sammich my companion ordered looked pretty good. It came out on some sammich bread instead of a bun. The drinks were just what we were looking for on that 90 degree day. We ordered up large Watermelon and Grape Slushes and they hit the spot. We realized later that we could have gotten Cream Slushes, so next time, if im ever near a Sonic again, i will be trying that. Overall the service was good, the food was decent, its fast-food what more could you ask for, and I had no complaints. read more

Destiny is AMAZING! She is super professional and so incredibly sweet. All people in this industry need to be like her. All people in general need to be more like her.

This place is horrible! In the last week I've literally called 3 times only to be told their ice cream machine isn't working properly. It's bad enough I have to call to make sure because I've showed up plenty before only to be disappointed. Literally attempted 4 times to get their cheesecake sonic blast and all four times something was unavailable. Why run promotions if you can't deliver! read more

The fries were cold and old and they didn't get any of the burgers I got right I only got three one with nothing one with onion and lettuce and then one plain all came with lettuce and the slushes were all melted and I got a milkshake and that was all melted. It's not a bad place the food is good but the service isn't great. read more
