    Everything is broken at this sonic. All the order screens, the entrance signs, the exit signs. The staff is rude. I ordered a diet cherry limeade and got a lecture on how there is nothing diet about a diet cherry limeade how its full of sugar. I then had to explain to the worker if it's sprite zero and diet cherry syrup it should have no sugar. He then complained I parked in the wrong stall. Which if they would fix their screens it would say what stall you were in... the food is decent it's fast food but not worth being yelled at by the guy that works there.
