Reviews For Sonny's BBQ

We went to Sonny's on a weekday around noon and the restaurant was full. After being seated I realized there was only 4 waitress/waiter working the whole restaurant. These individuals were hustling. Even though our waitress, Trinity, was busy she still was courtesy, had smiles and took time to answer questions. Wish I knew all their names so they could be recognized and say well job done! Thank you

Mona and her team members were VERY professional when I first entered the restaurant. I had a long (70) work week to start out March, came into this location (40) minutes before closing and she was very accommodating the entire way! I don’t usually visit restaurants near closing time (having worked in hospitality), but I knew the food and steadfast service would be great here! I highly recommend this location and every experience here is phenomenal! Mona and team members are definitely on point here! Keep up the great work!

Had catering from here in February 2024. They delivered a group lunch order to the hotel where we were having a business meeting. The food came in a reasonable time, and was still warm, even the tater tots! The order was accurate, even if there was an extra sandwich. Will order from here again when at the next meeting.

As always, the food was great and the service was the best. The meat was tender, juicy and very flavorful. Iappreciate the changing table in the men’s room, that makes things very convenient. The bathroom could use some cleaning but the rest of the restaurant looked fantastic and my family and I would gladly eat there again.

Amazing BBQ! My husband got the prime rib and said it was very tender. I got the chicken sandwich with the Chipotle bacon and onion strings and it was delicious! I wish they had the onion strings offered as a side as well they were that good! Our server was very attentive and nice.

I hadn't been to a Sonny's in several years and went for dinner due to the convenient location. I was very impressed with the quality and taste of the food, as well as the value. The ribs and pulled pork were great! Very authentic smoked flavor. Slaw and macaroni n cheese were excellent as well. Trinity was very attentive and friendly.

We got our food within 15 ish minutes during lunch rush. I got the Candied Bacon chicken Sandwich and my husband got the Sweet Carolina Sandwich. Their sweet tea is always divine too.
