Sonic Drive-In

Cool spot with good service. I thought it was really good. Had some chicken fingers a burger and that milkshake kind of thing. All hot and fresh. And the service was really nice.

Have never had a burger here before till a few weeks ago. The burger was damn good for being a fast food burger. The drink selection is excellent. Hell, even their ice is good. Only thing I don’t like are the fries or tots.

stopped here one night since all of Taos was closed and we didnt want to hit Applebe’s.
onion rings-​5
burger on grilled bread with bacon and onion ring on it (forget name)-1
it was cold and not really grilled bread but soggy bread.
tater tots with foot long chicago style hot dog-​5
this is why it gets a 3. wouldnt get a burger again but for sure a hot dog.

What a welcome relief from another fast food joint in this town!
The usual refreshing drinks (luv the Route 44 cherry limeade!!); didn’t try the food here. But friendly, courteous, efficient staff and service — even late at night !

We only went here because we were looking for cheap eats, and it was right off the highway. Maybe we were just ignorant, but after the intercom-​ordering system at carside (a big attraction) didn’t work, we went in to order — and found ourselves right in the kitchen. Apparently there is no over the counter service at all. And while the unsurprisingly flustered kitchen person nicely took our order while we were awkwardly standing there, we got to see a bunch of intimidating notices from the manager stating, for instance, that anyone who failed three times to ask people ordering if they wanted something in addition would be fired. Cheery.
Anyway, so we retired to the car to wait for the order. The burger I got was skinny and slimy, and my sweetie’s «grilled chicken salad» was made with lettuce that had obviously been treated with lemon juice or some other substance to give it the appearance of freshness when in fact it tasted like three days old, which we were certain it was.
If I were you, I’d try a local, non-​chain place if you’re looking for better fast food. You must be able to do better.

For those who know Sonic, this is the same as all the rest.
For who don’t, this is the place where beverage dreams come true. All of your blended, creamy, slushy desires can come to life. With a side of tater tots.
My friends like to order the screaming orgasm, and then make the person repeat back their drink order, They’ve been disinvited from ordering it again, so enjoy this prank at your own risk.

I have been reading the Charlaine Harris novels lately and they are a hoot. The reason this is relevant is because the main characters of these southern novels are Sookie and Harper and they are both patrons of sonic on occasion. I was intrigued, we have sonic commercials in the LBC, but no sonic. We went, the shakes were yumm, the food meh.
