Me and my kids had dinner at Sonny's we all had the baby back ribs they were awesome and we had a cat as our server she was very friendly and my boys loved her she was very attentive, by far one of the best experiences I've had at a restaurant a long time

Julie F was our server. She was fairly nice, although I noticed that she was much friendlier toward the group of men behind us. I assumed they were regulars or friends. The food was excellent. I had the chopped beef brisket sandwich and fried okra. Hubs had the ribs. Definitely recommend giving them a try! :-)

Went and ordered an ice tea with lemon and sugar substitute and never got my sugar. Ordered the chicken wings.. they were tough and spicy when I ordered the sweet.. our server Jason wasn't paying much attention and just forgot. The beans and coleslaw were great.. it is a great place to eat.. the servers need to pay attention to their customers and what they order..
