How do you put the rows with the same order_id such that all their corresponding rows add up to form the resulting Dataframe? (in this case quantity & item price should be added with the corresponding order_id before it, and the choice_description & item_name should be added in their "str" format as well)

Reproducible input:

d = {'order_id': [1, 1, 1, 1, 2], 'quantity': [1, 1, 1, 1, 2], 'item_name': ['Chips and Fresh Tomato Salsa', 'Izze', 'Nantucket Nectar', 'Chips and Tomatillo-Green Chili Salsa', 'Chicken Bowl'], 'choice_description': [nan, '[Clementine]', '[Apple]', nan, '[Tomatillo-Red Chili Salsa (Hot), [Black Beans, Rice, Cheese, Sour Cream]]'], 'item_price': ['$2.39 ', '$3.39 ', '$3.39 ', '$2.39 ', '$16.98 ']}
df = pd.DataFrame(d)

You can use:

out = (df
      .assign(price=pd.to_numeric(df['item_price'].str.strip('$'), errors='coerce')
                      .mul(df['quantity']),
              choice_description=df['choice_description'].astype(str),
              )
      .groupby('order_id')
      .agg({'item_name': ','.join,
            'choice_description':  ','.join,
            'price': 'sum',
            })
      .assign(price=lambda d: '$' d['price'].round(2).astype(str))
      )

Output:
