"This location is run pretty smoothly. My food was out quickly and was delicious. I chose to dine right there and that's nice when it's not too hot out. Man that Bacon Double was so much Bacon! Lunch was fantastic for 10 bucks."

"On Tuesday April 30, I stopped by this Sonic and ordered a large Diet Coke. The drive thru window was out of order so Quay, my server took my card inside to run it. She came back out and said there was a problem with the machine. I didn’t have a penny in my wallet!! She said “it’s OK I’ll pay for it!” I was embarrassed to death!! I asked for her name and this past Friday, I went back by and asked for her to come to my window. I gave her $5 and told her how sweet she was to pay for my drink!! I wanted her to know she was appreciated!! Thank you Sonic and Quay for coming to my rescue!! So many criticize servers, but not me!! I appreciate you!"

"Always friendly. Just wish you could leave the car hop a tip on the credit card. I cannot stand it when I don't have cash on me to leave them a tip. I served tables for 6 years so it's so embarrassing not to be able to leave them one. They are understanding about it, but they shouldn't have to do without a tip."
