The steak tip sub has gone down hill. They use to have the best steak tip subs not sure if it's under new management haven't been there in awhile.

First dine-in experience was very good & delicious too!The following week we placed a good size take-out order. Read the written order, repeated the additional needs n the order-taker repeated everything A+45 minutes to pick-up...sent Nono (he paid there with CC)Two bags and off he went, he tipped $10.00 on the "quilt screen" with eye's staring down on him..(he said he felt uncomfortable with that)Drove back to the daughter's home with, 3 adults & 4 grandchildren awaiting Nonos return w/food. (4 girls under 7)Unpacked!Set them up first!Didn't take long, all pitched in quickly! Drive is literally 6 minutes or less!I was told the 4 dinners included bread & butter...NO BREAD/BUTTER!!Requested a side of hot the whole hot peppers..will pay extra for that requirement and X grated cheese & red sauce requirement.NO PEPPERS! (just the one added to steak tip dinner plate)NO extra grated cheese (2) sent(3 pasta dishes were ordered) so down one anyways.NO EXTRA RED SAUCE!Ordered 6 meatballs (small btw) barley any sauce, could make the mini meatball sandwiches for a few of us n 2 children.2 sides of rice...$3.99-ish! Wasn't even a 1/2 cup of cooked rice...ice cold too!Undercooked thick FF were sent with the Chix dinner meal, then 3 full tenders, and 2 ends, size of a half dollar amount sent for the 2nd order.FF weren't eaten..cold & mushysoft, limp!The three adults mentioned that they were thinking the same as the others...when one adults, verbalized portions appeared OFF?? Salad, tips & tenders.The Shrimp Scampi over Linguini was flavorless, no garlic/lemon? They put a layer of cheese? over the pasta...it turned into a hard crust, stuck to pasta...so that layer wasn't edible, with (5 frozen?? Shrimp) they weren't white shrimp meat...rubbery texture as well.Sadly this 2nd visit wasn't what we expected based on last weeks visit/orders.We've had the stk tips and pasta dishes at many functions in the past. This was very disappointing for getting the order RIGHT, temperature of food, portions, quality and flavor.$150.00

Ordered a sub, no hots no onions. The order taker repeated it back to me. Got home, loaded with hots and onions.Not a good experience.

Just a heads up that I wish I had: you order at the counter and they bring the food to you. I just wasn't expecting that and wish we had more time to peruse a physical menu. You also have to prepay, which is weird when it comes to service and beer/wine. When we first walked in, I could smell the grill and could see some smoke. When we first sat down, I had to keep my count on because I was so cold. We finally realized that they had a screen door propped open which allowed the freezing cold air in. They eventually closed it and I got warm again, but opened it back up when it got smoky again. The filter system definitely needs some work and attention as that doesn't seem appropriate nor safe. My husband got the chicken parm and he said it was one of the best he's had in awhile. The red sauce was very yummy too. I got the chicken picatta. The chicken was very hard and I wish there were more capers and less mushrooms. The pasta was al dente. I think we'll order take out from here, but definitely won't eat in again.

First time getting a chicken cutlet sub I’m usually all in on the steak tips. Chicken was sub par. Not sure the tomato sauce was very good either. Disappointed but I’ll be back for the steak

Surprised. Heard many a comment and seen a review and it seemed to be a big question mark... No longer!!! Been a tough day for the two of us Didn't feel like cooking or going out, so... Let's roll the dice and see what Sonny Notos could bring to our home. Had heard about their steak tips... let's give it a try. Sides were fries, onion rings, house salad and veggies. We both ordered the tips, hers with fries and mine with garlic pan fried broccoli. I ordered a Greek salad on the side. Door Dash was quick. Upon the order, they called and said that they were running low on fries, would I like something else. Yup, the garlic broccoli was recommended and I went for it. Ordered the tips, medium... Doorbell rang 15 minutes later. Looks great. Let's see!... The tip dinner was delicious and very tender... SURPRISED! The entire order was very hot and ready to eat. Surprised. Best tips we've had in a long while... surprised!! We both finished our meals and for delivery it was a 10! My Greek salad after was fab. Fresh greens, fresh feta cheese, fresh tomatoes and fresh eggs. A 9 ! Sonny's is now a place we're going to visit in person!! It's a surprisingly nice place to order from!! Can't wait to go there!!!

This is such a cool, low-key dining spot. The vibe is like a sub shop where you order at the counter but have the option to sit down and eat or get your food to go. I dined in, and was surprised to see a small bar (I saw beer and wine, not sure if they sell any hard alcohol) where you could sit and drink/eat. While we waited for our food, we were brought slices of bread that were pre-buttered and delicious! They also brought the silverware in a food basket to the table so your definitely getting that relaxed style of dining here. I have to say the food was absolutely incredible! We had the steak tips, chicken brocolli and ziti in a garlic sauce, eggplant sub, and mozzarella sticks. ALL of which were absolutely delicious, seriously. The chicken brocolli and ziti, if you get it in the garlic sauce (because there are different sauce options) is very garlicky, just a little warning incase a strong garlic isn't your thing. The steak tips were cooked to perfection, just as I had ordered and bursting with flavor. The eggplant sub was one of the best I've had to date. It wasn't overly saturated in cheese and had a nice texture to it. I'm excited to go back and try more food options from here and highly recommend making a stop if you're in the area and hungry.

Friendly staff Lots of seating It seems like the food is made fresh. I got the chicken Alfredo with marinara sauce. It was bland and i likely won't try it again It seems like a popular place among locals. A+ for beer and wine availability

More a fast food than a restaurant.Quickly overwhelmed with customers and orders by phone, it's difficult to get any attention.Food is ok but not cheap either.
