Sonic. It’s a Bit Far, But It’s Worth It

Usually I get a peanut butter milkshake, some fries, and a burger maybe.

 About the Place

Sonic is a fast food restaurant that is located in many places here in America. Sonic sells delicious fast food such as burgers, fries, hot dogs, shakes, and slushies. All the food there tastes really good and the shakes are especially good, too. The slushies come in many sweet and fruity flavors. They’ve got watermelon, cherry, strawberry, and much more. I believe you can even mix-and-match the flavors.

Inside is actually their kitchen where they make all the food so you can’t eat inside there. You have to order outside by a push of a red button. On top of the button is their menu where you can order the food. You can eat outside or in your car.

They also have a drive-thru. Two drive-thrus actually. One is your regular typical drive-thru and the other is like a parking lot where there is no line. If you don’t want to eat in your car or wait till you get home then they do have some tables outside for you to eat on. The food is delivered quickly by someone wearing roller skates. No other restaurant does that.

Location and History

There is a Sonic that is here in Stockton. There is only one though. It’s located at 10354 Trinity Pkwy. It’s near Eight-mile road. If you don’t know where that address is exactly then you could google it. Before Sonic was even called Sonic, it was called Top Hat. Top Hat was created in 1953 and started off as a small business ran by Troy Smith and his partner Charles Pappe. Top Hat didn’t start off by selling what Sonic sells now. They only sold root beer. It was a root beer stand. But later it became a successful company and got really popular and thus Sonic was born.

Decor and Service

Sonic looks kind of like an old-timey restaurant. The decor outside looks kind of dull. There’s really not that much. There’s the tables, menu, and the garbage can. That’s really it. The inside like I said before, you can’t go in so who knows just how neat the kitchen is? The place itself has some brightness and is noticeable. You can’t miss it. It’s almost as noticeable as a McDonald’s. The menu is also bright.

Its got lots of color to it. It’s a simple menu, but not as simple as In-n-Out. The service is really good. Your food arrives fast and warm, never cold. The employees are nice and friendly making sure you have enough napkins and if everything is alright. And at the end of your meal, inside the bag is a peppermint candy.

The Main Course

The main food item that was bought at Sonic was the chicken sandwich. The chicken sandwich came wrapped in a blue and silver aluminum wrapper in a brown bag that said Sonic on it. The chicken sandwich was warm, not cold. Between the buns were two crispy chicken tenders and shredded lettuce. There was probably also mayo in it, too. The chicken tenders were crunchy and good and the lettuce wasn’t too soggy from the mayo. The price was really worth it. The chicken sandwich was really good.

The Side Course

To go along with the chicken sandwich was two fried mozzarella sticks. The fried mozzarella sticks were crunchy and crispy. It tasted really good. They use real cheese. The mozzarella inside wasn’t too gooey, it was perfect. They were also considerably inexpensive, too.

Recommendation

Obviously as you can tell, I really do recommend Sonic. It’s a great place to go with friends or family. The food there is really good and there’s a good amount of food to choose from. Sure, it’s a bit far, but it really is worth it. You’ll get great service along with great food. Everything there is really nice. If you do plan to go there then you should get one of their slushies. You’ll like it for sure. Sonic will become a fast food restaurant that you’ll want to go everyday.
