| - I am sad to say I will probably not be coming to Sonic's again if possible. On the plus side, it is open 24hrs which is very convenient. Located on Flamingo near the strip and by 3 casinos. Palms, Gold Coast & Rio. Service has always been nice & courteous.
The first time I tried their SuperSonic breakfast burrito at this location about 10yrs ago. I fell IN LOVE with it. It has everything except the kitchen sink. Sausage, bacon, eggs, cheese, onions, tomatoes, jalapenos & tater tots. It's pretty hefty too. I've honestly lost count how many times I've had it at this location. I've even gotten others to try it and some really like it too. I can't speak for other locations since this is the Sonic I've patronized 95% of my visits. I've had a couple other items too but the SS breakfast burrito is by far my fave.
Last week near the strip I needed to grab some late night grub. I felt a hankering for an awesome SS breakfast burrito. Initially I thought I got the wrong order since the burritos were considerably smaller than what I've known SSBB to be. Though it turns out that wasn't the case. I had ordered 2 of them. Inside one I found 2 or 3 tater tots, 2 jalapeno slices, a couple diced onions & tomatoes. If not for that I would've thought I got the wrong burritos. There was alot less of all the other ingredients in both of them. Both were roughly 1/2 to 2/3 the size I've known them to be all these years.
I decided to call back and ask the night manager on duty if perhaps my order wasn't done correctly. He explained that the burritos I got were how they were supposed to be made. They had to control rising food costs and were being overstuffed by the kids that work there for a long time. I had just had one there the week before and mentioned that fact. He said they just started correcting things.
Sure, the price has slowly gone up over the years. Which was ok, I was still willing to keep eating them. But I will not be paying $3.19 for an item that's suddenly almost half the size it used to be up til 2 weeks ago.
