I ate off the menu and wanted bone in catfish but all they had was strips. This was our first time eating there since the fire and the place looked amazing. However be careful with the chairs as they turn over very easily. My wife's chair turned over when she got up and we saw another lady turn over backwards as she sat down. In my opinion I enjoyed Blue Bay Seafood better in Albemarle than Jay's or try Captain Steve's if you're up towards Huntersville.

As good as my own on charcoal and hickory. Cooked perfectly rare as ordered, juicy and tender. On the restaurant web site a review said it was the best steak in town...

I ordered the fried fish and shrimp combo with Brussels sprouts and Hoppin' John. My server recommended the Hoppin' John and I am so glad she did. It was delicious, perfectly seasoned and just so freaking good. My fish and shrimp was fried to perfection, crispy and melt in your mouth good. My Brussels sprouts were good too, but after I finished my delicious foods, I had to take my Brussels to go! Nice setting, lots of space and the servers were spot on, they did not miss a beat. Definitely making a special trip back to Florence to eat at Tubb's. Highly recommended.

Hidden Gem Alert: Sonny's in Hartsville Will Make You Rethink Every Travel Decision…read more The Setup: Picture this - we're fleeing Charlotte airport toward Myrtle Beach, stomachs growling, playing restaurant roulette on our phones. Every exit offered the same depressing parade of 3.3-star sadness. Just when we'd resigned ourselves to gas station jerky, there it was: Sonny's Restaurant in Hartsville, gleaming like a mirage with its 4.9 rating (okay, only five reviews, but STILL). The menu screamed "drive past me!" - hot dogs, burgers, and enough fried food to make your cardiologist weep. But that rating! We took the leap. The Vibe: Walking into Sonny's feels like your cool aunts invited you to his hunting lodge/tractor museum/time capsule. High ceilings, a delightfully chaotic mix of chairs that would make an interior designer's eye twitch, stuffed pheasant keeping watch over your meal, and - my favorite touch - a majestic display of tractors. Oh, and bottled sodas with an ominous "DO NOT OPEN - EMPLOYEES ONLY" sign. (I'm still wondering what happens if you do. Instant ejection? A stern talking-to? The mystery lives rent-free in my head.) The Welcome: The greeting hit different - warm, genuine, like visiting relatives who are actually happy to see you. We rolled in late, right as they'd shut down one of the burners, but there wasn't a hint of "ugh, late customers" energy. The Food: Started with onion strings (because of course), then asked for their recommendations. My wife went French dip route; I chose the burger steak - loaded with onions, peppers, mushrooms, and gravy (I had them hold the gravy and pile everything else on top because I'm a maverick like that). Here's where it gets good: This came with a baked potato AND salad for a price so low I actually checked the bill twice. My wife's sweet potato fries? Chef's kiss. Her side salad? Crisp, cold, perfect. My salad? Same. Everything hit exactly right. The One Speed Bump: The baked potato arrived with vegetable oil spread instead of real butter. In a place this authentic, margarine feels like a betrayal. Guys, spring for the real stuff - you're so close to perfection! The Verdict: Sonny's is exactly the kind of place you discover by accident and then bore everyone about for the next year. Rural setting, genuine hospitality, solid comfort food at prices that feel like a glitch in the matrix. If you're passing through Hatsville on the Charlotte-to-Myrtle run, do yourself a favor: Stop driving. Eat here. Tell them the couple not from there and who arrived late sent you. Five stars. Would accidentally discover again.

The fried okra and whiting is good NEVER NOT 1 time have I had any bad fish or okra. I use to get the garlic shrimp but there have been too many times that it has become a hit and miss. somedays the shrimp is cooked to perfection other days the shrimp is over cooked. The garlic butter sauce is hands down top tier. With all that to be said I give this place a thumbs up for sure I love it and will always come back.

10/10--no exaggeration. Mr. Seafood is so good!…read more I ordered the fish and shrimp basket, and everything was fresh, crispy, and piping hot--fried to absolute perfection. The seafood combo was just as delicious, with great seasoning and fresh ingredients. While they do have seating available, the space feels more like a takeout spot than a dine-in restaurant, which worked perfectly for grabbing a meal on the go. The service was top-notch. The woman who took my order was friendly, patient, and made the whole experience even better. I'll definitely be back the next time I'm in the area. Highly recommend if you're craving great seafood!
