Sonic is taking things to the spicy side. The restaurant chain introduced their latest menu item, the all-new Buffalo Chicken Dip bites, available now for a limited time. The new Buffalo Chicken Dip Bites are a side order option and come in 3, 5, and 7-piece options. They feature juicy chicken, buffalo sauce, and melty cheddar cheese blended together and stuffed, then fried, in a crispy golden-brown wrapper. According to Sonic, they start at $2.99 and are available at participating Sonic locations nationwide for a limited time.
Not too much else is known about this new item, though thus far they are getting rave reviews from customers online. On Reddit, one poster in r/fastfood said that they were “fantastic” and described the bites as having a “crispy, almost wonton-like exterior” and noted that while they are small and definitely a side rather than a main dish offering, they were delicious.
