    a burrito wrapped in aluminum foil
    Judy E.

    Casual place with freshly made breakfast and lunch items. We had the Breakfast Burrito and it was stuffed full with peppers, onions, egg and sausage/ham. Very filling and delicious. Service takes abit of time to prepare each item but it is worth the wait.

    I've lived 1.2 miles from this places for years. I've gotten oil change across the street and smelled it several times but it didn't look like much and I'm particular about health scores so I, ignorantly, assumed it wouldn't be a good score. I am sorely sad for how many years I've passed up this GEM! Don't overlook this CLEAN little dive off 17! My Dad loved the breakfast, I loved the crab cake sandwich and sweet potato fries. Service was five stars, cleanliness five stars, fast five stars!! (The man beside me just said this is the ONLY place he orders burgers! He is loudly loving his cheeseburger!)

    Sonja's Grill, locally owned and operated, has been serving up breakfast and lunch to hungry diners for 32 years. Immensely popular with area contractors, businesses, and law enforcement, you'll often find a steady stream of customers during peak hours. The menu is colorfully written on large chalkboards near the north entrance, and they serve everything on it Monday through Friday, from 7:30 AM until 3:30 PM. (Sonja's is closed Saturdays and Sundays and traditional holidays.) Navigating this cozy space is simple. Once you know what you want to eat, place your order at the window, pay, and then find a seat -- there's booths and regular tables inside, picnic benches outside. They'll call your number when your order is ready. It's a homey, no-frills establishment, and the food that comes out of the kitchen is quite good. The iced tea is excellent, made fresh each morning. They make a mean omelet and the grits are out-of-this-world delicious. The fried pickle chips were a hit at our table, served with a side of ranch dipping sauce. My husband enjoyed the onion rings and a couple of Chicago dogs, and my cousin's 10-year-old daughter polished off a plate of French toast and bacon. Visiting with friends old and new at the charming and welcoming Sonja's Grill was a great way to start a beautiful spring day.

    Trip and fall hazard - no railing

    My breakfast was greasy. The hash browns were from freezer at a discount grocery store. The cook deep fried the hash browns to a solid mass of burnt potato. The side order of ham was some pressed deli meat burnt from a grill. Eating from the lowest quality disposable plates and flat ware is not for me.

I decided to try it here. The appetizer had just a little bit of lettuce, so I ordered the small house salad. My friend ordered the 'regular' salad with the tuna. Her salad was huge and she wished she ordered the same small house salad. The tuna was super fresh and seared perfectly. We both ordered it very rare. The menus at both restaurants are different, with a few same items. This place has a long list of wings and a bigger menu. Nice service by our waiter.
