The girl at the window was very sweet. And the drinks turned out really good. Different set up but very cool.

The food was good but the syrup needed changing in the soda machine. I was already down the road so could not get that corrected so I do not blame they completely.

First time Shopper with Sonic. The food and service were good. As far as atmosphere, it was storming that day. Although I was parked under the canopy, it was difficult to order my food. I do plan to go back on a day it's not raining because the food was satisfactory.

These ladies work hard for the money! I made a direct visit to this place from Evergreen to get a dessert with a new friend of the family from out of Detroit. We had a going back home dinner for our guest. Aftwards, the guest and I had a taste for an ice cream milk shake! Cheesecake, to be exact. Mine was Strawberry & Cheesecake and theirs Cheesecake. I also had a taste for onion rings! I counted only four but large in size, and I didn't specify wanting medium or large. Next time, I'll request the medium. They were good. Above all, I was impressed with the service and will come back.

The first time I came here I didn’t have good service, it took 30 minutes to get my food after multiple wrong orders. That said, the last few times I’ve been here again, I’ve had pretty good service. Polite and attentive workers, fast preparation and delivery, and the food is as ordered, no error. Most people only leave reviews when they’ve had bad experiences and it’s just bad for the workers and the business. I see the potential and improvement. Good work Management and employees!

Fast food as it should be. Fast service, hot fresh food. Served with a smile. A sandwich that requires 2 hands to hold and at a reasonable price, unlike other places.
