Just so we are clear this Sonic/KFC is not in Paris! The one here used to be awesome.. Hasn't been clean or good since Dave left.. So the stars are for outside Nashville Sonic

October 12, 2024

Idk what's going on with this branch, but they are terrible. Maybe they're short handed. That's fine. But maybe tell the customer that you won't be able to get them their order in a timely manner. Id rather you say that than take my order and leave me waiting for over 25 mins. I could've went some where else. I don't like my time being wasted.

September 21, 2024

They take forever to get food ready and deliver it. I'm a dasher and I had to call the store after talking to two different employees just to get 1 shake

August 6, 2024

Went for m&m blasts. Said machine was down. Also said soft drink machine was out. Got milkshakes which were nearly melted by the time they arrived. This Sonic has really gone downhill. Very unhappy.

★★★

Usually don’t complain but the size of the ”dish” of ice cream we just got was laughable. We got a dish at the Tom Austin location which was a generous portion in a styrofoam cup. Gave it a try at the Pleasant View location and it was less than half the size. It’s in a sundae cup without the toppings and it barely reached halfway up the cup!!! Do better Pleasant View!

★★★★★

The food was good. But what stood out to me the most was how fast the food was fixed and delivered to us! They were busy with lunch rush, and the girls still had smiles on their faces! You don't see that much nowadays!!!

★★★

I'd love to rate higher, but my last experience wasn't the best. I ordered a medium popcorn chicken, and they were so over fried there was no chicken left in them. I also ordered a large blackberry sweet tea, and it was not sweet at all. I had to add to sweetener once I got home. I go here frequently, and usually the chicken is good, but this is probably 3-4th time the tea has not been sweet. Very very very friendly staff.

October 13, 2023

A disappointing experience. 3 of 4 of our orders were wrong, and despite being busy, the cheeseburgers were cold and were not edible. Threw the burgers away. The tots however were hot and tasted great.

Not truck (super duty) friendly. Wait staff was rude and brought me incorrect change; bill was $29.21 and I gave them $40.21 I was given $10.10 in change. Not a big deal but after waiting nearly 10 minutes for my change it was irritating.

Incredibly fast service and the food was delicious. A bit hard to yell through the microphone so they may need to update them, but either way it was awesome. The blackout slush float was delicious, didnt come with any eclipse glasses, however. They might have just run out.

This is the best Sonic that I have ever been to when it comes to speed for filling your order. Usually at other Sonics that I have been to there is a wait before you get your food. Because you are in the comfort of your own car, you can pass the time talking with your friends or listening to the radio. However, at this Sonic, it was truly fast food. The order was out before I even had a chance to get comfortable for what I thought was going to be my usual wait. The order was accurate and fresh! Even though it is a little out of the way for me, if I am in the mood for something from Sonic, this is the one I will drive to.

I sat for over ten minutes after pushing the red button and no one ever answered so I went to Hardees. Sonic is my preferred breakfast stop but I was very disappointed this morning.

We went to sonic to buy milkshakes and now they have new sizes. They no longer have mini, they only have small, medium and large. We order small sizes and it was not small it was a mini cup. This was very disappointing when you think your getting an actual small cup.

Whatever happened to being able to get a good, hot, fresh hamburger! There used to be pride in restaurants, but I truly believe thats a thing of the past as is, so many other things! Higher prices and lesser quality, should be the motto of most restaurants nowadays!

Pulled up this morning and all the screens were off, Again Sat for a couple minutes and then left. Screens never came on. Website showed they were open and it was about 6:12am. Personnel inside were just standing together. Either hours open on website are wrong, employees are opening whenever they feel like it or they have other problems. People in the mornings are generally trying to get to work and looking to get food in a hurry to eat on the way to work. Wont be wasting my time before work to stop there again and not be able to order.

Its 9:19 at night , I ordered a medium sweet tea and they come bring me my drink and it was unsweetened. I let the woman know that answered the speaker and she was rude for starters! Also the manger came and brought me a new sweet tea and it wasnt sweet either. She told me they just sweetened their tea! No you didnt. Unsweet and sweet tea taste completely different!! I understand its late but the woman who answered the speaker , costumer service is a thing! Ive worked fast food I know what its likes!!

Was on my way home from Nashville for a doc visit & ordered on the app, but when I got there 2 pick it up, it had went to a Sonic on the other side of Nashville for some reason! They were very helpful in helping me cancel that order! I had wanted a Peanut Butter Milkshake & once everything was settled I headed Home with one! Very, nice & polite at this location, definitely recommend this place to anyone & everyone who pass by!

Food was hot and it was busy but we got our food really quick. And it was tasty.

December 22, 2022

Ordered 2 kids whacky pacs. Everyone around me got their food and I m still waiting. I finally pushed the button again and asked when the food would be out. She said in a minute. She said the order must have gotten lost in the system (right). The fries were cold, so the food had just sat there because they were waiting on their friends. All the teenagers around me got their food. I don t know why fast food restaurants cannot have adult supervision when teenagers are working. And if there was adult supervision, they need to be replaced.

★★
December 22, 2022

The pleasant view tn location has went way down. I m so sorry but the girls are super rude, you wait sometimes 15 mins just for someone to pick up after pushing the button. The popcorn chicken is never even covered in the sauce that is asked for.

December 22, 2022

waited literally 25 minutes on my break for 2 things and only had 5 minutes to eat before i had to go in for work. 2 things. just a hot dog and a coke it s not that difficult to make a hot dog and a coke.

I previously gave this location a 5 star, but after my recent visit, it s a 2 star. It s only 2 because of the pleasant attitude of the employee. She was nice, and apologized multiple times. However, there were 3 major inconveniences with my visit. I ordered, and received the order in a not unreasonable amount of time. I was missing a burger, and informed the lady. 5 minutes later, the lady passed by and asked if we received the burger. We hadn t. She checked on it for us, and said it would be right out. Another 5 minutes, and it had finally arrived. I have been here for half an hour at the point, but finally had everything and could leave. I get home and pass out food to the family. The 2 supersonic jalapeño cheeseburgers I ordered, had no jalapeños... One of them, which I ordered as a supersonic jalapeño cheeseburger with mustard and ketchup (not mustard and ketchup only), was mustard and ketchup only; no other toppings(including the previously mentioned missing jalapeños). So, after half an hour and 2 screw ups, I get home to find a 3rd. I will still visit this location, since there aren t very many other options when I visit my wife s family in Pleasant View. However, they deserve the one star, and I ll certainly keep this visit in mind the next time I m looking to pick up a quick bite for the family when I m in town. How about Sonic? , Do you remember the last time we went? .

Ewww. Nasty food. Havent stopped at a Sonic in a while since theyre all closed around where I live. That says enough in itself. We got the chicken strips, tots and gravy dipping sauce

December 22, 2022

Good food if they actually get the order right. Nothing like ordering 40 dollars worth of food for the family and only getting half of it. Didn t notice until I got home because I had screaming kids in the car. Of course it s not worth wasting 45 minutes driving there and back to fix it. This is why fast food is a MINIMUM wage job.

Got the number 14 which is a breakfast burrito with sausage. It had 1 piece of sausage in it the size of a quarter. The burrito also had a miniscule amount of eggs. I feel SCAMMED.

They dont hear very well when you place the order, I think the microphones are damaged, the screens too. We order burritos, but it seems like they make them with hatred.

So this is the second time Ive been to a Sonic since returning to the states and I do not know how this company is still in business. Cold undercooked tots, cold burger, added onions when not requested, and the kicker... took them 30 minutes to get my cold food to the car... NEVER AGAIN Sonic. Also this is the second time I went to this sonic. Last Sunday went there to try and get an order, pressed the button and waited for 10 minutes with no answer. Then the power went out in the store. Absolute garbage

Our food took over 20 minutes to get to us. When we finally got our order, the food was cold. I m sitting here waiting after pushing the button 5 minutes ago and they still haven t come over the speaker. Finally stop a carhop and she tells me they won t answer the speaker because the screen is full inside.

Everything went well considering worldwide circumstances. Food was hot n fresh. Scenery has improved. No complaints.

We have attempted to eat here three times since moving to Pleasant View at the end of July 21 and never got a response from store. We moved to different slots and saw others moving their cars to another slot to try and get service. There were no visible people inside moving around that we could see and no servers delivering food. Maybe we just came at a really bad time. We enjoy sonic but have struck out trying to eat here.
