    I don’t like to be that guy but damn 2 times this location has messed up my order, when I came around to get the right food I paid for the girl that has the orangish red hair was super disrespectful, made it seem like it was my fault she messed up the order and then had an attitude? Lmao own up to your mistake and make it right, I would be happy if I came back and didn’t see her working there anymore.

    We had a sonic back where we are from and it didn’t taste good so much so it got shut down. We decided to try it again and while it was edible it still didn’t taste all that great.

    Couldn’t find a name tag sadly but had an awful experience at this location from an older male employee working the drive through late thursday night (11/6). My boyfriend and I couldn’t remember that their “milkshakes” were called BLASTS and he accidentally said mcflurry when ordering and instead of respectfully correcting and educating he immediately went with the response “this isn’t mcdonald’s”. Not to seem like a karen, and being someone in the service industry, I was not pleased and hope that this location management sees this review and spends better time training employees as I will not be back to this location because I don’t need nor want to experience being talked down to by an employee.
