Sonny's BBQ is a popular restaurant known for its tasty barbecue dishes and friendly service. Many customers have praised their experience, especially highlighting the helpful and attentive staff. For example, Jennifer, a waitress, greeted guests warmly and made the dining experience enjoyable with her attentive service. Lauren and Hannah also received positive mentions for their bubbly and friendly attitude, with Hannah going the extra mile by bringing a missing sauce. Sadie, another server, was appreciated for her helpfulness during a large party, ensuring everyone was well taken care of.
The restaurant offers catering services, which customers have used for events like company Christmas parties. One customer appreciated the online ordering process and the driver, Chris, who arrived early, communicated well, and set up a beautiful spread, even accommodating last-minute requests. The staff's willingness to be accommodating and their enjoyment of their jobs left a good impression.
Food quality varies. While some dishes like sliced turkey, pork, sides like coleslaw, broccoli, baked beans, garlic bread, cornbread, and sweet potatoes are enjoyed, others found the family meals lacking in BBQ or sauce, with some meats being dry or unexpected items like chicken quarters instead of sliced chicken. The sides are served in small portions, not enough for larger groups, and some customers were disappointed by the absence of BBQ sauce with their meals.
Overall, Sonny's BBQ is appreciated for its friendly staff, good service, and tasty sides, though some food and portion issues have been noted.
