You can add one more field in sort array. Below is example of Elasticsearch query:

{
    "sort": [
        {
            "_score": "desc"
        },
        {
            "date": {
                "order": "asc",
                "format": "strict_date_optional_time_nanos"
            }
        }
    ],
    "query": {
        "term": {
            "user": "kimchy"
        }
    }
}

PHP Example

'sort' => array(
            array("_score" => "desc"),
            array("date" => "asc")
        )
