Sonic

Pros: Varied menu; Low Prices; Easy payment
Cons: Some vehicles may not be suitable; No trash receptacle nearby

Sonic is a fast- food restaurant that was founded in 1953 in Stillwater, Oklahoma, by two entrepreneurs, Troy Smith and Charlie Pappe. Originally known as “Top Hat”, the name was changed to Sonic in 1958 because of copyright infringements. The ...

Pros: corn dogs, cheese tater tots, slushes, cheddar peppers
Cons: eating in your car isn't always THAT fun

When I was a kid, my family would always come back to the midwest to visit my dad's parents for summer vacation. And that always included Sonic. When I would go back home to California or Wisconsin (depending on where I lived at the time!) no one would...

Pros: Shakes & Desserts
Cons: Service, burgers, & Service

If you are thinking, "What the heck?" when it comes to my title, your basically thinking the same thing I was when I drove up to the window to collect my dinner.

During half-time of the football game I decided to be nice and run out for...

Pros: Great burgers, fries, and desserts made to order
Cons: wait is a little longer than your typical fast food drive through.

Before I actually start this review I will warn you, it may be somewhat biased. The reason is that my 17 year old son works there and it is his first job. With that being said let's move on and have a Sonic Experience... We have had a Sonic in Rural ...

Pros: Good food and drinks.
Cons: A little expensive.

Sonic is one of my favorite fast food restaurants. I love it so much that the first thing I asked my husband when we went to California is if there are Sonics there. When he told me no, I asked him how did people live with out...

Pros: fast service; car-confined dining
Cons: buns; dry burgers; gastric distress

As a public service to all of humanity (and Epinions in particular) we stopped at our local Sonic to sample their cuisine, in order that we could write a review on it. This was quite a sacrifice on our part, as you will soon find out.

Sonic...

Pros: Burgers, onion rings, desserts
Cons: No eat-in

Now here’s a great fast food restaurant. Sonic is one of my very favorite places to go to get a burger and onion rings. Recently, Sonic has been growing by leaps and bounds in central Arkansas. Less than two years ago, there was only 1 Sonic within 20...

Pros: cool toys in kids' meals, tons of drink options, inexpensive.
Cons: not the healthiest, sometimes long waits.

You don’t know how much of an impact Sonic has made in my life, not just food wise. You see, in my little hometown Sonic is right on Main Street, and back in my high school days, that is where you could find anyone or be seen. “Look up at Sonic ...

Pros: Good burgers, good prices, variety
Cons: Where's the ketchup?

When I want a burger, I like to go to Sonic. I would say Sonic is a step above most other fast food restaurants.


The Drive-In

Sonic is modeled after the drive-ins of the 50s and 60s with music from that period...

Pros: Reminds you of the old 1950's drive thru's
Cons: Quality of food and service are very poor

Yes, there is a fairly new Sonic Drive-In Restaurant in our town too. Of course the first few weeks everyone was dying to try it out and it was usually so crowded we just went home. They had the right idea with this 1950's style restaurant. Pull up to...

Pros: Varied menu, brings back a bit of nostalgia, not too expensive
Cons: Forget eating here if you're health conscious, quality sometimes leaves a bit to be desired

For two years, from the ages of 16 to 18, I worked as a carhop at Sonic, which was the hangout in my then small hometown. Where your reputation was based on which side of the drive-in you pulled into (I begged and pleaded for my parents not to...

Pros: Tasty food, friendly service
Cons: Service can sometimes be very slow

Sonic is the drive in of my choice in our area. Like other chain restaurants, the quality varies from location to location. However, I can safely say that I have never eaten at ANY Sonic Drive In that was really bad.

The Sonic in our town...

Pros: Good burgers. Fast and friendly service.
Cons: One food item not so hot. Bad for the waistline.

I visited a Sonic fast-food restaurant for the first time just recently. This Sonic is located at 4403 S. Tamarac Parkway in southeast Denver, just north of the Denver Tech Center. What is unique about this fast-food restaurant is that you drive up and ...

Pros: Some Tasty Selections, Unique And/Or Rarer Menu Items In Comparison To Other Fast Food
Cons: A Lot Of Calories And Fat In Almost Every Sandwich Or Main Entree

Although Sonic has been in our town for a number of years, its never been a regular pit-stop for us. All-in-all we probably eat out less than the average American family, but on occasion I like to make a stop at Sonic… Sometimes, these stops ...

Pros: Different style from usual fast food restaurants, tasty foods.
Cons: Probably not the healthiest foods to eat.

We recently came back from a vacation in Lancaster, PA. After spending the day at Dutch Wonderland with our friends and children we worked up a big appetite. Our friends suggested we all go out to dinner at Sonic. Huh? I had never heard of this ...
