    My partner's special: pork sandwich with coleslaw
    Carla K.

    I lived in South Florida in the late 80s for six years. My now X absolutely love the Sonny's barbecue there. It is the same chain. Hence, when it was his turn to choose a restaurant, guess where we went most of the time? Their food was good, but I was never a big fan. Fast-forward three decades and our Bob Evans sadly closed its doors. However, the Sonny's Barbecue franchise moved in. They've actually been there probably a year and we had never tried it. Last night, we decided to give it a try. It really was fabulous although they brought me fries instead of the potato I ordered, our precious server fix that immediately. I think they did send me beans with my special that weren't supposed to come with it, but Even I liked those even though I'm not big on barbecued beans. The irony was my guy is trying to downsize himself a bit and he ordered a $10 special. That was a sandwich and one side. So he got a pulled pork sandwich and coleslaw. Both were very very good. I had to take pictures because it seemed like I ended up with a ton of food, which I did, and I enjoyed an entire meal again today. The price of mine was only $12 plus the small up charge for choosing a salad as a side. The iced tea was so good that I had to get it to go cup because I was not leaving any of it there. Recommendations to our efficient and friendly server, whose name was Rae. Although my significant other does not use apps, I went ahead and downloaded the app to my phone and added my card and received a $5 discount off our tab. My partner had ice water with lemon, I got this massive amount of food, he got a very nice portion meal, and service was very nice. It is hard to believe that we got all this for less than $24 before the coupon after the coupon, it was not even $19. let's not forget. I brought some food home for today. I must add if you go in to dine there based on my photos, please remember that the fries and the beans in the photos did not come with the special that I got. The point is they fixed the error with the potato immediately. I highly recommend Sonny's BBQ in Bowling Green, KY. The ambiance is OK -- after all, they were working with the floor plan that was left by the former Bob Evans. It could perhaps be cozier, but they do have a full bar. It was a Sunday evening around 5 PM and they really should have been busier. I know we will return.

    Had to get a bottle of their delicious sauce to bring home.

    Food was perfect in every way. Ordered a family feast for 6-8 and to enjoy with family, everyone filled completely with delicious smoked meats and perfect sides. The fast friendly service made it a great experience. I wish Huntsville texas had a A Sonny's BBQ.

    When our favorite barbecue place was closed, we decided to head over to Sonny's. Our food was good and hot, and came out in a quick manner. My mom and I decided to split the sampler and a salad. It was way too much food for the both of us. Just getting the sampler would've been fine, the salad was massive and ended up being split between three of us. I really enjoy their beans, they have a good flavor profile. The salad is massive, also packed with extra veggies.

    Had the brisket, cheddar sausage and pull chicken it was good had the mac and cheese and tots was not a fan. The waitress Ray was awesome and friendly. The decor was nice and environment was nice.

    Shortly after I tore into bbq perfection!

    I come to Sonny's every couple of weeks. Every time I visit I'm greeted warmly, promptly sat, and served outstanding bbq! The vibe is definitely bbq with a flair of the wood that makes the goodness, such a cool atmosphere. Today I got pulled pork, beans, fried okra, and cornbread. The pork was smokey and sweet, everything I was looking for today. The okra fresh and cooked perfectly! The beans were outstanding, s usual. And the cornbread is like a southern smile, sweet and welcoming. What a great meal and outstanding service from Rae, I couldn't have asked for more!!!

    Sonny's Sampler - ribs, chicken, pulled pork, brisket, beans and slaw
    Rhett B.

    Why are all these Yelp reviews hating on Sonny's? It's the unofficial BBQ of Florida with a few locations in Kentucky. I am from as close as you can get to Florida and I'm always pleased with Sonny's. First of all, the sweet tea is always sweet and refreshing. Second, I love the Sonny's Sampler that comes with ribs, chicken, pulled pork, and brisket. It also comes with slaw, beans, and garlic bread or cornbread. It is about $17. I would say the most consistent meats from Sonny's are the ribs and pulled pork. Also ask for the mustard BBQ sauce to put on the pulled pork. Thank me later. The beans and slaw, in my opinion are the two best sides from Sonny's. The beans are sweet and smoky and the slaw has a good mix of crunch and creamy slaw sauce. There are 4 sauces on the table and the mustard sauce that you have to ask for. The 4 sauces on the table are original, sweet, sizzlin (spicy sweet), and smokin! I love all of them and they are all ketchup based. Sonny's BBQ is great BBQ!

    Good food at great prices. Good service. Restaurant was clean but the AC wasn't working well. They had fans but it was a bit warm.

    Great food, good selection of menu items, and a pleasant ambience. Best of all, no vegan food.

    Late lunch while visiting from out of town. Loved the options available. Service was friendly and…read morefast. Food was good

    Cambridge market and Cafe has intensified my craving for Brussels sprouts. If you like your…read morebrussels sprouts firm like little hard al dente balls of cabbage, then these won't be for you. These are cooked until they are very soft, mushy and so full of seasonings and flavorful that I think a small child would like them. Hence, my review is not just about Brussels sprouts. Although Cambridge Market has had to increase their prices in the last few years, they are still competitive. One of my favorite things to get is the four veggie plate; however, I had never ordered them to go before. Today's order prompted me to take a few minutes and write a review. You get your choice of four veggies or salads along with your choice of roll or cornbread (which I opt out on). The portions, -- especially when compared to fast food restaurants such as Popeye's mashed potatoes where you get maybe 4 tablespoons of instant potatoes with 2 tablespoons of gravy on them -- are profoundly different. Cambridge Market has real mashed potatoes and yummy gravy. (I am not completely adverse to instant potatoes, but I am adverse to paying for a restaurant side dish that has a quality and portion of a frozen TV dinner.) Cambridge market knows what they are doing for sure with my four favorites: Brussels sprouts, lima beans, mashed potatoes and gravy, and their crisply-sweet broccoli salad. Another menu item -- my friend's favorite-- Is their Manhattan style roast beef on bread with mashed potatoes in the middle. I was pleased that the young lady who took my order was polite on the phone (and in person), I was pleased that I was not charged for an accompanying glass of ice water, and I was pleased that my order had the required utensils and napkins in the bag. My total was $10.60 for all. My picture may be in here sideways, but I'm not going to risk losing the novel. I just wrote.
