I'm second in the drive thru waiting almost 20 minutes. Watched the server go to the queue of vehicles with food ordered as after me. And she would stop and ask what I ordered after I told her twice already. Still waiting as I type this. If this wasn't a small town I would leave but don't want DNA in my food if I come back (which I won't ever do...).

This Sonic has big issues, makes you wonder how clean it is internally. On-line ordering is constantly unavailable. The time it takes to order IF they decide to answer after pushing button. The time it takes to get the food and hopefully it is at least warm. This tells you something about Sonic as a corporation. To be fair you do have to stop and think it is located in Bandera. Sonic and the other inferior establishment coming into town must be in competition for last. Maybe it is the employee's at all the fast food franchises in Bandera.

This was a good trip to a location that is inconsistent in both service and food quality. However, this night the service and food quality where right on point.

I'm guessing the girl in a red shirt was the manager on duty when my food was brought out the tater-tots and fries were cold I asked them to please remake them all she did was dio them into the frying and brought them back and still cold and gross. And I feel sorry for the poor girl that had to bring me out cold food directed by her manager.
