I feel the food has changed. The brisket is 100% trash, whatever you get don't get that. This is after trying to get a decent brisket 5 or 6 times. The sliced pork is hut or miss as well. I feel like they just throw it on the plate, if you get a pile of fat then thats what you get. A little bit of qc and Sonnys would be great again. The rest of the menu is ok and the service seems to always be good throughout the years.

My husband and I traveled here to Gainesville for an appointment and decided to stop by and try the bbq here at Sonny’s BBQ. Our waitress was Amy. She provided excellent A+ Customer Service to us and our photo was delicious, hot, and freshly prepared. Also the presentation of the food was awesome!
