    I ordered a strawberry cheesecake shake and the shake was spoiled. Disgusting and extremely disappointing. How can you serve your customers spoiled and rotten food.

    Jerome is the sweetest person! He was so efficient with our order and very patient. He apologized for the “wait” which really was nothing, and that showed me just how high his expectations are for the customer service! Our order was perfect, will be coming back to this Sonic.
