So, from now on, whenever someone is visiting a restaurant, be sure to post it in the Daily Texan since it's a "current event."

Fuck, and here I was telling people how easy it is to fast after you get used to it.  Wish I didn’t click on this thread…

Holy shit, I had one today as I dropped in for half price burger night and was surprised to see it on the menu. 

It was a banger, best fast food burger I've possibly ever had. You should go try it.

Article says it starts at $6.49. Is that how much you paid?

This. Perfect venn diagram of efficiency, quality, price, and service. Freddys dominates all fast food burgers not named Shake Shack

Sonics in Oklahoma used to be Iike Whataburgers in Texas, the best of fast food. Now both are just terrible. Sonic in particular has lost its edge in speed and service, it takes 20 minutes, almost as long as Whataburger. The one by me closes randomly for a day or two because they aren’t staffed. I think Braums is probably the best of Oklahoma fast food chains these days. Some local joints have drive thrus now too that are far superior in quality.

I know the guy who runs shit around here. I’ll have him move it. I’m watching you!

I swore off Sonic long ago. I assume a lot of others did too because they closed a bunch of stores and kinda re branded with different colors and shit. I am wary to give it another try, it was pure trash the last time I ate there.

Hits close to home. Worked at Braums when I was 15 y/o. Made burgers in fact as well as an in demand malt.

I tapped out when they ditched the skates.

Sonic’s going through a renaissance of sorts. I went there last week for the first time in years and I was pleasantly surprised. Part of me does wonder, though, if my expectations were just that low or if the food was actually better.

I had a girl on skates once eat shit right into the side of my car in highschool. Like face first into my driver side door. All my shit spilled onto the car, too. Never minded that they ditched skates after that.

In high school I banged a skating carhops. She was definitely a brown bag special.

Had?!?!? From her IG earlier this month. Sure it's been sharpened a tad, but let me be clear, I'd stab you in the leg with a fork for about 3-4 minutes with her. Which happens to be about how long it takes to get this new Sonic burger. (To keep on thread)Screenshot_20240731_100648_Instagram.thumb.jpg.b5d297134bf9ebc9c7b882ca0f9dee92.jpg

When I drove to Denver in 2019 and back in 2021, I found small town Sonic’s to be quite good stops. Suburban Houston ones too

Just a two word review.

Shake Shack..Shit Shack.

Del Rancho is my go to in the OKC area. That huge CFS sandwich is great and the burger is fine.

Moved to Cali last year after 30+ years of a Sonic being either the closest option to my house, workplace, or both. I actually miss it more than whataburger. They have them in OC but Im not driving 2 hours for Sonic

Shake Shack is about the best out here, unless you prefer cold buns and a burger covered in a gross, allegedly chili

I'm just here to say that In n Out is overrated shit.

In n Out bumps. And its like 2 dollars cheaper than everyone else.

But unless you get there and get in line at about 1015, good fucking luck

I'm just not a shake Shack fan. It always tastes like a congealed, greasy mess to me.

Yeah I've never liked their fries. I shouldn't need to make multiple modifications to make one of your staple items edible.

Hungover at 1p on a Wednesday afternoon? Impressive. What happened on Tuesday night?

I thought their fries were packing peanuts.  Actually, packing peanuts would be an upgrade on In-n-Out fries.

During the last school year, my daughter got a coupon for a free Braums combo meal from her teacher that we finally got around to cashing in the other day. Ordered their bacon cheeseburger combo and was blown away by how good it was.  Crisp lettuce and tomato, bacon with a crunch, hot and juicy burger cooked perfectly, cheese that didn't need 10 seconds in the microwave to get melty (cough cough whataburger cough). The crinkle-cut fries were burn your fingers hot and perfectly salted.  All the staff were very friendly and competent.  Oh, and I could walk over and get a double-dip mint chocolate chip in a waffle cone for dessert.  We all left very impressed. A++ all around, Braums.
