I have  eaten  at SONICS  ever  since  my Daughter Joined the Â
US AIRFORCE and they are Everywhere in Texas
I looked forward to them , coming to Michigan !
Today, however was  awful ! ! !
Pulled into the drive-thru  to get my gal a cone & a grape Slush for me
[ Happy Hour  daily  2-4pm ]
Arrived  at 2:16  with ONE CAR in front of us
Placed order at  2:21
Received order at 2:28
I could understand if it was NOON on a Friday
but  a 14 minute journey for 2 Treats...?  on a Slow Sunday. . . .
I ordered off the everyday value menu. Â The jr. deluxe burger was okay but kinda smushed and contained lots of shredded lettuce and mayo - two things that I find annoying when in abundance.
I thought I'd like the tater tots, but it must have been an off night. Â They tasted really weird. Â The boyfriend and I kept eating them, trying to pinpoint the weirdness, until we realized that the tots had a faint vanilla-y taste to them, as if a ton of french toast sticks had been deep fried in the oil first and then the tater tots went into the deep fryer afterwards.
Lastly, I tried the jr. candy sundae - vanilla ice cream, your choice of candy topping (I got Reese's), whipped cream, and a maraschino cherry on top. Â This wasn't bad but was half melted when I got it. Â It was quite tiny, which is good if you're going for portion control. Â I probably would have preferred 1.5 to 2 of them though. Â If you're going for ice cream at a fast food place, I think that McD's sundaes are better in size and taste.
Maybe I should've ordered one of the slushes, but the colors just seemed too alarming.
Finally stopped in and gave it a try. Very limited menu with no vegetarian option and no fish. Interesting drink selection of freezes, shakes and ades. Those were good. One glaring ommission for a car hop place - no drive up garbage cans. No fries just tater tots. Really it was all bland kid food.
