About Sonny's BBQ

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.

What the manager did this evening topped every experience I have ever had since ever going to sonny's for several decades now. I was having to place an order online to be picked up as we were not able to dine in, had a couple of issues with the app so figured I would just walk in and order.

We came to the new Sonny's in Winter Haven for the first. We sat at the bar and our waitress/bartender Catherine(Cat) was amazing and she was so friendly and helpful. She really knows her job and everything about Sonny's. Will definitely be back!!!!

My family went here for a dinner a month ago. I guess when it just opened and enjoyed the experience. My mom wanted me to try it. So we went through the drive through. It took a while since it was busy but we didn’t complain.

Our bill total was $66.11.

A few days later my mom noticed an additional charge of $6.79.

Apparently Sonny’s drive through gives themselves tips without your permission. I get that it’s the holidays but tips should be earned...read full review
