This particular Sonny’s BBQ location is convenient to Interstate 10. This was one of the driving reasons that I chose this establishment for lunch.

Sonny’s BBQ also has its roots in Florida. It was started by Floyd “Sonny” Tillman in Gainesville, Florida back in 1968 and has grown to well over a hundred locations across the southeastern United States.

While I have had better barbecue than the food at Sonny’s BBQ, I have to say that Sonny’s BBQ is decent. Consistency is really a key when you deal with larger chain restaurants. A good example is Sonny’s BBQ. They have over a hundred locations and to keep consistency is not easy. I went into this Sonny’s BBQ knowing what I should expect and for the most part I received the food that I expected.

All in all, this was not a bad lunch. I will give it four stars.

My favorite BBQ restaurant in town. Love this place! Always recommend it. My favorite is the BBQ ribs and baked beans are the Best!

Dry rub ribs were tough as shoe leather. I’ve gone to Sonny’s since it opened but something has changed. Flavor is still there but the final presentation is not what it was.

Walked in. Table was sticky. Average customer was eligible for social security. Walked out.

Great food and great service.
I ordered a bowl that included “BBQ Dirty Rice.” Being a Louisiana Cajun, I just had to try that.
Genuine Dirty Rice it was NOT. It was white rice without any ground pork in it.
It had BBQ Sauce in it.
Won’t make that ordering mistake again!!!

I have always loved Sonny’s for decades. Ordered Babyback Ribs – waitress came back later and said they did not have any Babyback Ribs! Asked for Stew – no longer carry Stew!!! Had ordered water. Got a sandwich with fries. Charged for a drink. Never told!!!  Worse serve Pulled Porkever!
Sonny’s has gone down the tube!  So disappointing!!! I will need to find a new Bar B Que place. Sonny’s has bit the dust!!!

I went inside and ordered take out yesterday 12:14. I thought I would be nice since I didn’t need right away. I ordered 3 kids meal…chicken tenders, sliced pork and pulled pork.  However 34 minutes later I finally asked Dre about my order and he put it together in 5 minutes. This is the 2nd time I have walked in to order a simple meal and it has taken over 30 minutes to put together. My friend and I are in there once a week and it seems like the management is non-existent. I guess they are busy in the back. This place needs some help all the way around. I guess next time I will go thru the drive thru. I knew there was a problem when people sat down 10 minutes after i ordered and got their meal 5-10 before I left. I like Sonny’s too much not to go there however I don’t know if I’ll order anymore to go food.

A comped replacement meal that itself may well be screwed up doesn’t address the problem.  How many bad reviews will it take before Sonny’s will do something about the incompetent management at this location?  This Sonny’s been in decline ever since the renovation, and it seems to be getting worse all the time.  The  damage it is doing to Sonny’s system-wide reputation, at least in my eyes, is substantial.
