yeah I know this sounds dumb, but we finally got one up here about two weeks ago. I'd forgotten how good their food was.

Not sure how well their going to do in the middle of winter when its -30F outside but its nice there is a Sonic up here now

There are too many where I live (HQ is in OKC) and the food is average at best.

It has caused me to take a liking to restaurants from out of state.

Their slushies are pretty damn good during the summer.

Sonic.

I'll give them credit for their slushies and deserts though...

sweet green tea with mint is pretty darn good, as are tater tots

Foot long Chili Cheese dog with extra onions and a Route 44 diet cherry limeade, please.



My dag likes their jr. deluxe burgers - plain & dry.....but he likes beer instead of limeade with them.

It's one of the better for what it is..

I love Culver's in a bad way though.

Their quality varies quite a bit, but when you find a good one, it's pretty good.



Local one is advertising half price burgers, I think on the 15th.

The Sonic here is OK at best. Really depends on the pimple faced teenager cooking your food. Whataburger right next door beats the Sonic hands down as far as food quality, but the frozen drinks and shakes are great.

The closest one to me is 3/4 mile. I like the hot dogs from the Greek run place up the road better, but the fries are greasy.I love the tater tots at Sonic. Nice change from fries.

Their new pretzel dogs are pretty damn good.

Can't stand the food usually but on Friday and Saturdays we get a good cruise going and see some nice rides.

You want a few more of them, will be glad to send you a few from here.
And yes, getting excited about a Sonic coming to town sounds dumb, sorry.
Maybe they will use ice skates this winter.

I have one about 1 1/2 miles from me, never have been in the place.
Nothing in there I care for.

Glad you like the food, enjoy.

Nothing special.

OP, how long did you wait in line.  News showed an hour wait, and they hired people to direct traffic.

Think I'll wait for the crowd to slim a bit.

if you eat in the dining room you don't have to wait in line and have your food within 10min, that's what I did

We tried to eat there on the 26th. They had flagers directing traffic it was so busy. There was probably sixty cars in line waiting. We said screw it and went to wings and rings.

Lime ade is good. Chili cheese fries and foot long chili cheese dogs make a good combo.

I CAN NOT stand the commercials on tv. They are annoying and dumb as hell. Those two idiots on there remind me of those guys from American Pickers on discovery channel. Might be lovers???

They opened up Sonic Restaurants in both Oshkosh, WI and Appleton, WI, neither of them saw their second winter.

Their chicken strip sandwiches are pretty badass for only being a buck or so.  Way better than anything you can get at McDs for a dollar.

F-ing liberal place. Go ahead and give them money so they can help speed up the destruction of the country.

They used to offer the Frito chilli pie. Man, that was the best. Anything they have smothered with chilli and cheese is great.

I haven't eaten in a Sonic in almost a year and feel better every day and that comes from a 43 year old man raised on it since birth. they give a ton of money to the Dems. they don't get a dime out of our family.

I will say this. there is NO OTHER place that has the proper taste on any type of fountain drink and there is not a day that goes by that I don't lust for a medium Cherry Dr. Pepper from there.

Oklahoma in general has an odd perception of what food is. It's like Oklahomans don't know how to build a personality and run with it. Instead, you just sort of cater to whoever has the most bland and generic taste and pretend that being nice and homely makes up for a lack of actual effort or skill.

I think I've just lived here too long and the passive and modest atmosphere has gotten sickeningly thick. If there is a state where I feel genuinely discouraged from excelling, Oklahoma would be it. There is nothing in this state worth advertising except cheap land and low population density so we make the oddest appeals to bring business here. Then, the businesses that originate here and actually make it out of the state do so through sheer quantity and whoring out instead of being selective enough to garner some exclusivity for those on the outside.

where the hell do you live. OKC, Tulsa, even a lot of smaller towns have excellent food if you go looking for it.

Sonic is terrible.  I have never liked there food.  I have had it since I moved to OK in the 2nd grade and I always complained when we went to eat there.  I'd rather eat a bologna sandwich than a burger there.  Some of their drinks are decent but all their food sucks.
