Met up with friends for a casual dinner at the Oveido Sonny's. Two of us ordered a 2 Meat Combo with St Louis Ribs and Chicken. The ribs were great, fell right off the bone! The chicken was a bit dry, but with some bbq sauce it was decent. The other person in our party ordered a Bowl and said it was delish. We also ordered the Cherry Pie Eggrolls to share for dessert. We all agreed these were good but overly sweet. Also insanely messy. They were out of Coke Zero which was disappointing so I settled for a Diet Coke. Later I ordered a beer off the visible tap and was told the tap was broken, so settled for a bottle and a frosted glass. I noticed they did a LOT of DoorDash/Uber eats. Our server was awesome, and overall a positive experience. read more

Good service, great food. No real complaints about this location. It was our first visit to this location and it was clean and food came out timely during a weekday lunch visit. read more

We came here yesterday 5/17 for a late Mother's Day lunch. My son in law had half chicken. My daughter and I had the baby back ribs. Mine came with bbq baked beans and coleslaw. Very tasty. The ribs, however, were beyond awesome. And I've had some good ribs. Absolutely perfect. My meal was so good I forgot to order the banana pudding for dessert. Our waiter, Andrew, was very helpful. I'm not from Florida, but I'll have to come here again for the Baby Back Ribs. read more

Tried the new turkey power plate here and it is fantastic and a real bargain. A half pound of turkey with a side and drink for $10.99. Our server Hope was terrific. This is a great deal. read more

Sonny's BBQ - Turkey, slaw, and tea - Barbeque Near Me - Oviedo, Florida

Let me break down my afternoon visit to Sonny's BBQ. While it's not my first time, I think it will be my last. I want to first acknowledge the good: customer service is top tier. The wait staff is attentive, funny, and take their jobs seriously. I felt welcomed and cared for from the moment I walked in. I observed them own up to mistakes at other tables, make corrections, and even joke with some folks that were regulars. I enjoyed my 'working' lunch observations. The location was clean, with typical BBQ-esque decor, but the bathroom looked like a war zone. Someone must really expect folks to use the bathroom as the toilet paper & paper towel dispensers were overloaded to the point that anything you grabbed came out in tiny tears- the floors were littered in these pieces. The trash cans were overflowing, and the counters/floors were very sticky. I was greeted within a few mins of my arrival, taken to my seat, and my drink order was taken by the host, who was immediately followed by my waitress who went over the menu with me. I loved her and so did everyone else in my section. The food came out in about 25 mins, and all of it except the corn bread muffin was unremarkable. The lean brisket looked like beef jerky and tasted like wall paneling, the ribs were overcooked and tough to separate from the bone, the mac-n-cheese was kinda congealed, and my green beans were cold. I was in a hurry, so I didn't have time to wait for them to fix it, so I ate what I could and left. The BBQ sauce selection is either too sweet, too salty, or too bland. And neither of them paired well with the meats that I chose. The impossibly large lemonade tasted like sugar featuring the thoughts of lemon, and I was glad that I also ordered an impossibly large water. At nearly $30 for one person (including an upcharge for the brisket), I expected it to be better. I packaged up the leftovers, then threw them away once I got home LOL read more

This was my first time visiting this location, and I had a great experience! There was plenty of parking, and for a party of 2, we were seated right away. The inside of the restaurant looked recently renovated and very clean. There was even a bar inside this location. We had top-notch service. Our waitress was extremely attentive, personable, and helpful when ordering. We both ordered a big deal meal. I got the smoked turkey sandwich with the $2 upcharge with extra meat. This is the way to go. I also really enjoyed my Arnold Palmer with the sweet tea and lemonade. Perfect for a hot Sunday afternoon. My food came out very quick and was delicious. The sauces were all fully stocked, and we wanted for nothing while here. We even ordered banana pudding to go that was delicious. I highly recommend this location. read more

Walked in and was seated at a dirty table. There were two other couples and the staff didn't even come over to take our drink order. Went to move to another table and it was dirty as well! read more

We had a great experience from the second we entered. The hostess was great she accomodate our party of 6 even on a busy night. We were taken care of promptly. Our orders also were all taken correctly. I enjoy the pulled chicken Cobb salad. My son really enjoyed the mac and cheese. I would say out of the 2 apps. My fave were the tater tots. If you like pulled pork and or chicken you should definitely give Sonny's a try. read more

Hi friends, I order brisket sliced with pulled brisket was not even warm. A side of Mac and cheese with a side of coleslaw. The bbq sauce could not save it. The Mac and cheese was not good at all (cold and no flavor) And coleslaw was a miss. Service was good. The place is big the ambiance was nice. I was so excited to have some tasty brisket. :( read more

Today my mom and I went to Sonny's for Veterans Day Lunch! Our server Erin went over and beyond with taking care of us!

Thank you again Erin for amazing service! read more

Good food at a fair price. Sides are fresh and they are back to serving the good garlic bread. Ask for Hope, she is a great server.

This is our neighborhood Sonny's, and we have been eating here for years. Friendly service and timely reorders for all you can eat meals. Thank you, Erin, for always taking good care of us!! read more

My family loves Sonny's. Food is always great and the staff is so friendly! This location is our favorite!!!

I have come here the last few weeks looking for consistent quality BBQ and this location has hit the spot every time. Emily was my waitress and her customer service was exceptional! She made the overall dining experience amazing and her attentiveness to my table was memorable! Thank you Emily and the Sonny's kitchen and staff for making this a truly great meal all the way around! read more

Just went with my 6 person family to Sonny's and while we had a bit of a seating situation it was a great time! The food was delicious and our server Hope was amazing! She funny, really nice and good at her job!! read more

We went to Sonny's before a show and as always, the food was fantastic! I have always been impressed with the consistency of the food. Our server was super funny and personable and we were a fairly large party of 8 people. He was prompt in refilling our drinks but the food took quite a bit of time to come out. It did not seem or appear to be terribly busy in the restaurant and we didn't order anything that seemed crazy so not sure why it took so long. This seems pretty consistent when we come here so in the future, we will plan to not eat here before a scheduled event or if we are limited in time. The tots were so tasty, as usual! The chopped brisket was super moist and it goes perfectly on garlic bread! Corn nuggets are also a must try! read more

This food was amazing. We got the family meal, we got brisket, ribs and some sides. Everyone loved it. Yum. Will be back.

LUNCH TIME! This is a friend favorite for lunch. We usually don't stray away from our normals but I've been eyeing the bowls and apparently they're leaving forever so this is my chance. The waitress said they didn't do too well which is sad bc I really liked it and can never have it again ): We did discuss how we could construct the bowl when it's gone and although it would cost a few dollars more, it could be done. anyways! Service is always great and the waitresses are always up for conversation. Super nice girls! read more

Worst BB meal I've ever had. The sliced pork was dry and impossible to eat, even when covered in BB sauce. Must have been cooked the week before. I live in Oviedo but will NEVER eat here again!! read more

The brisket sandwich was a greasy fatty mess. I've had a better brisket sandwich at Arby's for less.

We had a delicious dinner and the service was great! We will return again and bring the kids next time! Thanks Luke.

We went in on a busy Thursday evening and had Luke as our server. Luke greeted us promptly and brought us our drinks quickly. There was a great special on Thursday night and most of the people in my party ordered the special. The food came out quick. It was delicious. We ate everything and were too full for dessert! I highly recommend this location and we are going to add this to our regular rotation! Thank you! read more

Called before placing uber eats order to make sure I could add ranch, then called back after placing and she said she would make sure to add it. I received it with no ranch. Yeah it's just ranch but that was the reason I got sonnys and not somewhere else read more

The food was awesome as always and very affordable. If you like BBQ you can't go wrong with Sonny's. I love the picnic table bbq country ambiance and the fast service. You also get large portions to fill your belly. I went to the Oviedo store and my server was a young lady named Sierra, which we've had in the past. She is always very outgoing, super sweet and a great server. She stays on top of my refills and never misses a beat with her other tables. Ask for Sierra, you won't be disappointed! read more

The service was excellent...from there it was downhill. The food came out lukewarm and was not the usual of what is expected at a longtime establishment. read more

We visited this location to celebrate some family birthdays. It looks like the place has been recently remodeled and it looks very nice. The decor is clean and modern and provides a nice ambience. Our server was very pleasant and attentive. Two people in our party had all you can eat pork and she came back regularly to offer them additional portions. She also kept our drinks full and the food came out quickly in general. I ordered the sampler which has brisket, pulled pork, chicken, and ribs. The ribs were just okay, nothing special. I didn't care for the chicken at all. It was greasy and lacked flavor; I had to add a lot of sauce to make it palatable. The pulled pork and brisket are decent. I enjoy the Sonny's original BBQ and the sweet BBQ. The Mac and cheese is pretty good also. Overall, Sonny's just doesn't do it for me when it comes to BBQ. This location is worth a visit if you are a Sonny's fan though due to the food service and nice atmosphere. read more

Ordered my usual this evening; pork 3 ways, garlic bread, beans, fries. That used to be $14.99. Tonight the pork alone was $17.99, plus $3.99 for the (very mediocre) fries. With tax the whole meal was ~$23 So Sonny's is on our "Don't go to anymore" list. Sorry! read more

Sonny's BBQ - Portion of ribs on sampler platter - Barbeque Near Me - Oviedo, Florida

Upon pulling into the parking lot, the place didn't look all too busy in the middle of the afternoon between lunch and dinner. I naturally wear a mask at all times (living in the hotspot of COVID-related occurrences, hospitalizations and deaths...yay! Florida!) I noticed nobody in the restaurant was wearing masks, so I naturally assume that your staff weren't made aware that a raging pandemic is currently floating around everywhere in Florida or that you must certainly have a policy of mandating that all workers be inoculated. Khloe (who I naturally assume must be smart enough to know that being inoculated is a good thing) was a joy and a pleasure to talk with while I was ordering. The salad with pulled pork is sweet, juicy and delicious. I happened to find an unlabelled container of sauce on the table, tasted it, and found it to be better than the labelled ones (not sure what was going on there but one would think the franchise could afford to get a container with the same branding information as the rest, but hey...I don't audit your books.) The sweet tea I ordered was just perfect and the Olympics were on the TV in the far corner of the restaurant, so I had something to watch instead of the plethora of people walking in and out of the building without masks, coughing, sneezing, hocking up lung dessert...you know, what normally happens after a good meal. Overall, I gotta say that Sonnys always brings the best barbecue meats to the table in a presentation that has you salivating waiting to dig in. I kinda like the added possibility of danger while I'm eating that I might be exposed to a deadly respiratory virus that has a penchant for mutating and changing into more virulent forms as it jumps from person to person. It's like a dinner AND a show! read more
