Reviews for Sonic Drive-In in Salem, OR
Please be warned. If you read google reviews, avoid this location. I should have listened to the reviews and thought I would be... different. I, like most others, wish I could give this place zero stars. The wait time to order is horrible, the wait to get acorn dog with a drink was far too long at 15 minutes, and the quality of food has been bad. I will say that the cherry limeadeis very good and has always been a plus of Sonic. But this location just does not seem to be able to get it right. I ordered acorn dog for my daughter who wanted barbecue sauce; they didn?t have barbecue sauce. In fact they didn?t have any sauce orcondiment except ranch. Ok, fine. I?ll take ranch?. FOR 25 cents! And when it got here, the cup was hardly a quarter of the wayfull! Not enough for one corn dog. Thanks for making my daughters day. She really appreciates the service. /s On top of all ofthat, it all just tasted like bad carnival food or too much old fryer oil. Not sure why I expected my experience to be differentthan others here. Read more
Wish I could give this place zero stars! My fiancée and I were traveling through and stopped off quickly to grab food.... Immediately upon ordering we were told they had ?limited options.? After asking if they had certain things we finally settled oncorn dogs and mozzarella sticks. We waited in line way longer than we should have given the small amount of food we got. All ofthe food we received came in unlabeled packages. Once we drive away we realized that the cherry limeade didn?t taste like asonic cherry limeade. The mozzarella sticks are NOT standard sonic mozzarella sticks. They were overly breaded in a differentfried coating and tasted like old fair food. The corn dogs batter on the inside was soft and didn?t feel cooked. No sauce wasoffered and no napkins were given. We have a sonic close to where we live and it is the best! This?.. this was somethingcompletely different. If I would have read the reviews on google beforehand I would have taken my business elsewhere. Thebusiness owner needs to do something about this. Stay away people, you?ve been warned! Read more
All of our bags, cups, and wrappers are unlabeled. Just plain white wrappings. Ordered a chicken sandwich which turned out to be... 2 chicken fingers on a bun. Fries were not seasoned and not fully cooked. Slushies weren't mixed with the syrup so when I sippedmy drink it was all warm syrup and no ice. Hot dogs were served on coffee filters and the dogs were crunchy. Usually thislocation is pretty good but everything about this meal was terrible. Read more
This place is garbage. You can tell management is cutting corners and getting ingredients from elsewhere. The strawberry limeade... didn't have any strawberries, just the flavor syrup. No mints with our drinks. They offered mayonnaise as a dipping sauce. Theyhave seen better days. Read more
I usually am not one to complain and bee undefstanding... but i have tried multiple times to go here and be understanding but... its just so dissapointing every time. This last time i ordered a chicken slinger. Im not sure if they were out of chickenpatties or what, (which if they had told me i could have changed my order) but this is what i recieved. A (hopefully) torn inhalf chicken tender and 1 pickle. So like HALF a sandwich for full price. I guess ill be driving further out if i want a decentsonic meal. Read more
DON'T GO HERE I'M TELLING YOU SAVE YOURSELF!! This was my first time and last time coming to this location I ordered a breakfast... sandwich when I open it a smell of chemical burnt food comes off so potent I now have a headache. I take it apart and everything including the egg was charcoal burnt the bacon is hard as a rock and burnt as well! I called customer service but I dontknow if anything will be done. I'm beyond disgusted by this. Shame on you people for even serving that! Clearly something needsto be done here. Read more
Slow, inept, uncaring and down right despicable service. served charcoal bacon on two burgers waited 15 min for them to answer... the button, one of the cooks comes out covered in grease and old flower and I show him the two burgers I was served and he looksat me blankly and ask "what's the problem?" He then asks if I would like them remade and returns inside despite me asking him toremove the two double bacon 1/4lbs. Cheese burgers, long story short I received more charcoal bacon and some unidentifiablerunny substance mixed with the mayo, I threw them in the trash. I have been served burnt food, food that was clearly hours pastits serve by time, waited over 15 min for one route 44 soda repeatedly.... and when I ask for it to be addressed I am told it'sa franchise and corporate has no control over the service. I have been to this location at least once a month and have neverhad a vist that wasn't disappointing. Read more
This is the third time getting the cherry limeade signature drink with no limes or cherries in the drink. It just tastes of soda... with melted ice and a hint of cherry flavor. Our drinks were mostly ice when we specifically asked for light ice. Took threesips and the drink was gone almost. This is a disgrace for sonics as they are the number one drink makers. Read more
