    We waited 38 minutes after we ordered, just to never be served. At one point, the screen said someone was bringing our order out, and after another 5 minutes, it said thanks see you again without us ever getting our order. What's more, when we called via the button a second time, they put us on hold. All of this happened after we tried the regular drive thru first, but we were never greeted and their screen was broken. Horrible experience. I've never had something so egregious happen at a Sonic before. This was wild.

    The cheese tots, hotdogs, corn dogs, ice cream creations, walking tacos, and soda are good. Best cherry sprite in town, for some reason. Prices are ok, and staff are friendly.

    My friends and I had mobile orders where we ordered food and condiments such as pretzels and cheese, breakfast burrito and salsa, etc. We got our food and two of us were missing our sauces. One of our orders also had a banana shake and it what we got was something with peanut butter. We came through the line to ask for our sauces and the shake. Who I’m assuming is the manager came to the window and told us that our food did not come with sauces and we would have to pay. He was incredibly rude about it when I felt we were nice and understanding. Especially when my friend was given a peanut butter milk shake, and she is allergic. Mistakes happen, she caught it before drinking it and we weren’t upset. It was not our fault that the app doesn’t charge for sauce and if that is the case fix the app or at least just explain that to the customer. I feel like if I already messed up an order I would’ve just given away the $2 in sauces, but I guess that’s just me. Overall the food was fine, the carhop and man at the window were great! The man that came to the window about the sauces was incredibly rude and was the worst part about our experience.
