★★★★☆ 4.0 Steven Dunahoo · Dec 2025

My father and I stopped here to have a quick bite before we went to be with family at the hospital. Everything was nice and the lady that waited on us was very friendly, efficient and caring. I cant get her name but she does travel a ways to work here if that helps. So.eone that travels this distance is a gem of an employee and a great job she did.

We eat at Sonny's frequently I must say this was probably one of the best meals we have gotten from here 😋 and the service was amazing I believe our servers name was Angel and she was just on top of everything!

Brightly lit, clean fresh interior, wonderful service. Great ribs, lots of sauces. The potato was a little over cooked, but still tasty. The cornbread muffin was too dry to eat. Cornbread casserole was be a wonderful substitution. The salad was loaded!

The last 3 stops have been worse than terrible. My children didn’t want to go, but I convinced them anyways, to only be let down once again. Our server, Adrian, was super amazing- however played a part of the misfortunes too. 1. My daughter ordered the Sonny’s Steak Burger Big Deal. It comes out “naked”. It was a bun, a piece of meat, and NOTHING. Nothing else at all. When I ask Ms. Adrian if she could get toppings for my kiddos burger, she was happy to help! I couldn’t understand why it come out without any though. That’s not the norm. I ordered the Pick 3 Combo. 2 Pulled Pork and 1 Chicken Tenders (without sauce specifying these were going home to my fur children). When food comes out, my son says, “That’s not yours mom. Did she bring someone else’s food to our table?” I flagged Ms. Adri

Chasity took such great care of us even while training a new staff! Food was spectacular! Matt was wonderful and kind! We are in from out of state today and will be back for sure for lunch tomorrow before we head out again! Such a clean, calm and friendly environment exactly as we remember the Sonny's in South Florida we lived near.
