"Went to sonic tonight, the gentleman that was working came out and took our order because the speaker wasn't working. I wish I would have gotten his name. He went above and beyond and the food was amazing on top of that."

"Absolutely the best. Friendly service, delicious food. I wish Orlando's Sonic would be as good. This has been the best Sonics experience in the entire state of Florida. Keep up the great work and don't change a thing!"

"Just picked up some drinks and a burger from this location and it was STELLAR. The woman at the window Char was so nice and made my drinks SO WELL! The best I’ve ever had Sonic’s drinks ever made. My burger was fresh and delicious and I am genuinely confused by the low rating that this location has. Again Char is a gift and this location is lucky to have her."

"(Original review was stars only; no text... Here are my thoughts a few days later.) UPDATE: You're welcome, Sonic! Was in a bit of a rush when I posted and couldn't make time to post something more detailed, as I usually do. In retrospect now -- That visit was very pleasant, despite the pounding rain last weekend! The ordering process was easy (we even managed to stay dry!), the car hop brought out our food in a timely manner, our cherry-limeade was *on point* (one of our favorite reasons to visit!), the food was hot and fresh, and the kids were happy! That's an A+ all around in my book! :) Thanks again for providing awesome service to our family."

"I haven't been to a Sonic's in so long I was super excited when we found this one. I think I jumped a curb to get here. I got a chili cheese dog... onion rings and a strawberry limeade. Husband got a chicken sandwich on Texas toast and the kid got chicken nuggets. This was hot and fresh and I stuffed it all in before boarding our ship...I was very satisfied with this choice."

"I'm not one to bash or anything but I recently started going to Sonic and I started using the App for my orders. The first time I ordered I got the window they didn't even know my order name and when I did get it the order wrong. I had someone elses order. The day I tried it again, I waited and when I got my order order I was missing one of the items. I asked and was told that was I had I ordered which was true but a missing item and she walked away. A young man came out of the doors and brought me the item which was missing. All was good. However, I will try again at another time."
