The food was terrible. The burger was cold. The bun was hard. It’s the worst sonic experience I’ve ever had. Don’t go to the sonic in Portland.

I recently ordered off the app to pick up my food at 6:30 PM. I got there around 6:32 PM. I ordered an extra large chili cheese Coney along with some chili cheese fries. Once I received my food, it seemed like it’s been sitting for 15 to 20 minutes. It was cold and disgusting. The waiter was nice and friendly, but overall, I wasn’t satisfied with the food at all.
