Kids there did not Wana work we were the only customer until I was leaving still took quite some time to get popcorn chicken an mozzla sticks with 2 drinks they were fresh an food was good. The cashier also asked if I want my change I could understand if I had it delivered by the carhop but I was in the drive threw

  • Dorian Block

Of the 5 attempts I have made to get a simple medium cherry slushie here they have never once gotten my order right. They have a rediculous wait time of 30+ minutes every single time even when I am, legitimately, the only car in the lot and only ordered a slush. Do not waste your time or money even parking here.

  • M B

Don't be fooled by the professional food pictures the company posted for this review. The food doesn't come close to looking like that. Imagine a squished fast food burger lacking in quality wrapped in greasy paper. This particular location is subpar compared to other Sonic locations. Cheers and Happy eating!

  • Marie “Vee” Grinnell

I've had the worst experience at this Sonic in particular. The young man who was taking our order he was so rude to us. We ordered two drinks and that took a good ten minutes just for that order then another ten for the delivery of the drinks. It was a horrible experience on a very hot day like today.

  • Ginger Gates

Wasted 20 minutes waiting in drive through only for a very rude young lady tell me she can't "do two transactions." First why not? Secondly isn't something posted so people don't waste almost their entire lunch hour. Usually go to the location on 4th which is much cleaner and staff much friendlier.

  • Nelly

This place always has a line and there is always a wait ESPECIALLY on weekends.. but the food and drinks are always good with some questionable employees at the window. But, we're in the midst of a pandemic so considering the circumstances they're doing well enough.. thanks

  • E M

I order number one combo that burger was cold. And the onion rings I ordered are cold. The only thing was good was the lemon limeade. I order a hot fudge sundae and that was cold also. Haven't been here for a while. It's going to be a while again. Pretty much suck. More

  • Peter Lokke

You got to love Sonic. It's a good experience I like to drive up and service to the car. Overall the experience was fun and the food was good typical Sonic food though. Nothing extra special about their food it's fast food but it's good fast food

  • Adam Martin

Every time I go to this location, it is always slow service. Even if I'm the only person in the drive-thru. If there are multiple people in line, you're better off going somewhere else. The only upside, is that my food order has never been wrong.

  • Andrew Wiggins

After a long day of work I stopped at this Sonic at 9:30 PM. I knew they closed at 10 PM and figured I still had 30 minutes before they closed. I waited in the drive-through patiently for 20 minutes. I finally made it to the box to order my

  • Rita Salazar

Did was a very bad experience. We got to Sonic at 10:45 pm . when we pulled up we push the button for service and the monitor said someone would be right with us we waited there for 10 minutes we then went to a different stall and again my

Went by yesterday to get a corn dog, strawberry sprite slush and a come and they gave me a lil too much cone...It had the bottom of another cone on the inside of my cone.. I kept wondering why my cone looked a lil different when I got down

  • Marisol Segura

This place is a joke, I’m not even sure how they’re still open. We waited 30+ minutes for my daughters chicken strips. The lady was very sweet and apologetic but this has happened more times than we can count. We also ordered fries and all

  • Joey Maxey

So I actually go here alot and they usually do pretty good with service and quality but this time was just too upsetting seeing how small my ultimate meat and cheese burrito was and the fact that the bacon was semi-warm and basically hard

  • Katie S

I love Sonic, I always have, but the last couple nights this particular location has been giving really bad service. I went in with a group last night, an hour before close, and pulled up to one of the stalls. We waited for 20 minutes and

  • MARK T

This place is terrible and should just shut down. They always get your order wrong no matter how carefully you explain your order. The food is always nasty compared to other Sonics. Most recently I showed up with 30 minutes until closing

  • Ri Ri

Went to this Sonic one evening at 10:30 and waited in one of the stalls for the employee to tell me they were only open in the drive thru. Waited in line in the drive-thru. When I was up to order the employee Jordan stated that they were

  • Benjamin Smith

Horrible. Worst experience I have ever had at thie Sonic. They have children who are inexperienced and do not know how to take an order. When I got to the window my entire order was botched and even added thungs to the order that I didnt

  • Rose Ahumada

Very unprofessional. I think there were a total of three workers there. Two young men and a lady. I ordered a mini m&m blast. It took 20 plus minutes for me to get that only thing I ordered. There is a young man that leaned out the drive

  • Rick Clark

Generally, this Sonic at Alameda & 2nd is pretty good. Other than the terribly slow drive-through, I've really only ever had one problem at this location, but it precludes me from giving a full five stars. (For those of you playing along

  • Vulpes Strix

They are almost always slow even when no ones in the lot, they use the tracker for your order to hype their numbers to cooperate I'll bet, considering the last three times I've gone it has gone straight to "on the way" and I still had to

  • Mayra Vega

I ordered and paid online... When I got there my product was supposed to be given... But I didn't receive it... Probably it was given to someone else. I asked for my product twice.. the third time a guy came to take the order... Finally

  • Kristie KMC

Better than what they used to be in many ways! The food is good & the desserts are tasty. I had 1 bad experience when they way over did the ketchup, it was gross. But the guy was new & they honored my complaint & replaced the meal …

  • Devan Jojola

Came here today after work waited in the drive Up for 10 min with no help , then went to a parking spot pressed the button had no response for another 10 min, then a response as soon as I back out of my space. I can’t forget to mention

  • Sanda S

Um. Hello. This place was FANTASTIC!!! Seriously. Do I really need to drive to the outskirts of town for a great drink and burger?!? My drink was made EXACTLY the way I requested it....thank you and my burger was SPOT ON!!! Let me just

  • liz avalos

I only stopped to pick up a nice cold iced tea. Love the crushed ice, it was fast I went on line parked and there it was. The food is also good there I like to order on line and pick it up. Keep up the good work Sonics. More

  • jbwer jbwer

I went to Sonic yesterday and had the double Sonic cheeseburger. The speed of service was excellent and the food was as well. I also had tater tots which were hot and crisp. I will be back based on this experience!

  • Briyit Arteaga

I drove by to get a cheeseburger and while I was driving home I opened my cheeseburger and saw it didn’t have the meat on it only plain buns cheese, tomato lettuce basically paid for an incomplete meal More

  • Brian Clark

How can you stear wrong when you have an awesome classic hot fudge or strawberry shake at half off during Happy Hour Summers? You can not. Sonic is still great. And has a great, respectful friendly staff.

  • HR MC

Even with a long line we got through it all pretty quickly. Wasn't too happy with the fries or tator tots; they tasted kind of old or maybe the oil wasn't clean. The burgers were great though.

  • Adriana Torres

Drive-in is the worst... super slow and they don’t take your orders right away. Drive-thru was moving faster but still more than 30 min to get out of here at rush hour. The worst sonic ever.

  • Edith Meadows Armijo

Usually pretty fast. Haven't made my order wrong yet; been going there for years. Love their ice cream. Kind of hard to get back into the road sometimes, especially heading east.

  • sabin allison

Do not waste you time at this location, Golf Course, Montaño, and Rio Rancho have better service and will get you in and out faster (with the drive included) than Alameda

  • Jessica Brand

Asked for extra hot fudge, didn't get it. One shake was 1/3 whipped cream. It tasted fine and they did a good job getting things out quickly even though it was quite busy

  • Ms Tafoya

Everytime we come here they get the orders wrong. The wait is literally ridiculous even in their drive thru. They’re also really rude. Who can’t make a shake??? More

  • RosAnna Curley

The food was great for a quick stop. Ordered ar 1:15 got our food at 1:30 and it was busy. Thought I would have to wait longer. Great job everyone!!!

  • Thomas.G Price

11:21 am to 11:44 am I couldn't even get my review in no replies. If fast is what you want here is not where to go.

  • Mike Marshall

I love there burgers and they have the best iced tea of any fast food chain
