    Sonic had a 5 star review from me. It’s very disappointing to pick up food and get home and everything is wrong. Asked for Coke got Diet Coke. She asked if I wanted any sauces, I said yes and told her which ones. Got home, no sauces. Mistakes happen but fast food these days it’s like 9/10 times my order isn’t what I said. Yet my money is always right. Tired of not getting what I pay for.

    Today I witnessed such a disgusting thing while waiting for my drink and fries, at the pick up window. There was a man sitting at the table repeatedly picking his nose and eating it. I asked the young man at the window, if he worked there and he said “yes, he’s the manager.” I told him what I was seeing and he said he’d make sure he washes his hands, when he came back inside. There was a camera right next to where he was sitting. So whomever is above him, should review the camera footage from today around 5:55 ish pm, you will be able to see exactly what I seen. Truly disgusting!
