Excellent food, had the pulled pork plate with bbq beans, coleslaw, and garlic bread which was excellent. Service was ok but it's always cold in this place. read more

I ordered Sonny's pick 3 with brisket, smoked wings and ribs. It came with sides, I got Mac and cheese and a salad. Wings were good, not great. Ribs were overly dry. Brisket fell apart but had no taste. Very disappointed. read more

They offer curbside. You get a text confirming curbside. You text your parking spot number to the link. You get a confirmation saying someone will bring your order right out. 15 minutes later, i walk in to get. It had been sitting on the counter. It was cold. If you're not going to bring it out, then stop offering curbside. read more

The only positive thing i can write in this review is that the servers and service were amazing, but other than that the food was absolutely atrocious. I could compare it to regurgitated baby food. My beans were served cold, chicken had strange lumps of fat, my beverage was served with SALT instead of sugar, and the worst of it all my water tasted like straight chlorine. If you're looking for a good BBQ place, do NOT come here. You will choke on dry biscuits and chug down a disgusting salty drink. Rethink your choice before coming here. read more

I was extremely disappointed with my experience at this restaurant. The cleanliness of the establishment was very concerning, and it did not appear that proper sanitization standards were being maintained. during my visit i noticed roaches which is unacceptable in any food service environment the overall condition of the kitchen and surrounding areas also seemed unclean and poorly maintained. I strongly hope the management takes immediate action to address the sanitization issues and improve their cleanliness standards before serving customers again. read more

Food and service was great! Got the pick two smoked pork and baby back ribs! The potato salad was a perfect match along with the Mac and cheese! read more

This is not the same Sonny's BBQ!!!! Haven't been to one in years and let me tell you, they've stepped up their game! Everything was cooked and smoked perfectly. It doesn't have that chain trying to do BBQ feel anymore and the food is really good. I was impressed and have now gone back 2 additional times with each being as equally good. read more

Sonny's BBQ - Their table sauces - Barbeque Near Me - Spring Hill, Florida

BBQ at its best. Not just ribs and brisket. I really love the turkey. Sides are great too. Just like having a family Que but without getting stuck with the dishes. read more

Everything was great. The service is always A+. Food is always on point. Very clean and welcoming environment. Never a bad experience.

I've been going to Sonny's for 45 years. I used to love It. Always thought it was the best bbq around. Really gone down hill. They've enlarged their menu but lowered their quality. Today I order takeout pulled pork sandwich meal. It was gross. Shredded pork stewed in bbq sauce like a gas station pork sandwich.. It looked like something that had already been eaten. Stewing their pulled pork in sauce is not the way they used to do it. They're going to send me a ticket for a free meal. I'll probably give or throw it away. I love good bbq. I hated this bbq. read more

We've used Sonny's BBQ catering for a couple of years and probably will not be going there again! This last time, we ordered chopped brisket and received shredded chuck roast. I reached out to Sonny's telling them how disappointed I was and received an "I'm so sorry but please come back again " email. I spent a lot of money on the order and a third of it was on the "so called" brisket! If you love Chuck Roast and paying top dollar for it, Sonny's is the place to go! read more

So disappointed . We used to love Sonny's . Arrived at 4:45 pm early dinner , surprised to see people waiting. Hostess says it will be 10 minutes we don't have enough servers . Well 25 minutes later we were seated ! I must first say that Karli was a great server ! Hubby ordered ribs with fries , slaw and corn bread . He got ribs, beans and garlic bread . Manager (?) who brought our order said " oh I'll get the right stuff " returned a few minutes later with right stuff . I got a 3 meat place with tots and Mac n cheese and nothing was truly hot except the tots . Everything else was warm but not hot . At this point we just ate and paid and left ! Sonny's used to be the best and one of our favorites but no more . Sorry to see such decline in what was a great place . read more

Our group of 6 arrived on a busy Saturday evening. I think in general the group enjoyed their dinners. However my smoked chicken was the scrawniest, driest chicken I have ever been served in a barbecue place. I can't believe this is standard fare, so I'm just assuming this was a one-off. The side dishes were all delicious, and a waitress was very pleasant and helpful. read more

The place was packed. We were not expecting this. We had to wait a little longer for our food. Once we ordered the pace picked up. The bathroom was clean and monitored regularly. Our server was efficient and friendly. read more

A group of 14 went to dinner on February 20. The food was terrible and cold. The waitress was absolutely awful. She started an argument with one of the folks in our group. His dinner was incorrect and instead of bringing him what he ordered she argued with him. She brought the manager over who was useless. After she took our orders, we never saw her. We waited and waited for our checks. One of the ladies finally got up and went to the desk to ask for our bills. The waitress finally showed up with an attitude. They do not take reservations and when we arrived, the restaurant was practically empty. We had to wait and wait to be seated. We did do a call ahead. This restaurant has paper towel holders with paper towels that you use for napkins. Ours was empty, and she never came to fill it. Some of the bills were incorrect. Beware of them overcharging. The manager finally did make them right. Usually for a party of this size, a restaurant would provide two waitresses. We only had one with an attitude and no customer skills. Unfortunately, nothing positive to say about this night out. The group would never recommend this restaurant. read more

Food great. Service great. The restaurant looks very nice. We went to Sonny's a few months ago. It was pretty bad. Made a not good review. The manager called, and offered us coupons for free entrees to come back. We really weren't going to, but, on a whim we decided to try it. To our surprise it was really nice. It was cleaned up, the food was great and the service was very good. We will be going back. Thank you to the manager, and you did a good job. We're glad we gave Sonnys another chance read more

When at 5p today. No brisket!!! Server said they run out of brisket early most day. Server did her best to make our meal better

Had a wonderfully cooked rib dinner. The worker crew was very personable and friendly. Everything was great, until I needed the Restroom. It was absolutely FILTHY, disgustingly Dirty! My husband experienced the same filth in the men's room NO excuse! For this filth. It's making me Really Wonder! What the kitchen looks like read more

Dry cold ribs. crunchy, cold, and dry rice. Watery ranch dressing. BBQ sauce containers old enough for the label to have rubbed off, which were still grimy from at least the last few customers. The service was rocky from the start. Took fifteen minutes to see our waitress and get our drink orders in. We were ready for food orders but our waitress (who didn't introduce her self, but I'll call her Methany) was not. Took her an additional fifteen to bring back silverware and take our orders. The hostess said the delay was her fault because she sat two tables to methany at the same time but your hostess was working hard cleaning tables and things most of the time we were there in the largely empty restaurant. I don't think anyone came in before or after us (sat 10/4/23 around 7:15pm) for quite some time. Had to ask for a spoon several times before she brought one. Brought out the salads with the ribs. As to ambiance things are looking pretty run down. They changed the layout which seems like it will accommodate the same or perhaps slightly fewer tables. While neglecting other important things like the men's bathroom and the flooring (which was missing, just raw concrete). The men's bathroom hadn't been serviced in a while and was out of hand towels, the floor was wet and smelled of urine. Everything was dingy, and worn down looking. Someone needs to invest some money in the place to make it look decent again, unless worn out has-been is the aesthetic that is being aspired to. All that said the ribs that weren't thin and dry were fantastic. The sweet potato was a 10/10. I hope this isn't the last death gasp of this franchise location because we do really like eating here. Usually. But definitely not tonight. read more

I have been enjoying Sonny's for years, My son's says if you're sick Sonny's will make you feel better! Over the years I can't think of very few times I have had bad service, It's Family friendly and it's a family favorite! read more

Great service and great food. Much better than I remember from the past. Our server was kind and got me a kids menu when I asked for it. (Bariatric surgery) We ended up sharing the Sonny's Sampler instead. The rib literally melted in my mouth - no sauce needed! And the brisket was tender and juicy, not stringy. We're taking the chicken, pulled pork and sweet potato home for dinner. read more

Sonny's BBQ - Sonny's Bourbon Mule - Barbeque Near Me - Spring Hill, Florida

When you want consistently good barbecue, Sonny's is the place to head to. Hubby requested ribs for Father's Day - and that was what he enjoyed! It was a full rack, so he brought some home "in case I get hungry later tonight ", lol. I ordered a salad and the pulled pork sandwich, and unfortunately only took pictures of my salad because I got distracted by the meal and ate it quickly! It's always a great meal at Sonny's, no matter what location you visit, as we have been to both Georgia and Florida locations for terrific food and service. read more

I was disappointed tonight( not that it matters) my food was cold and my waitress didn't even ask why I didn't eat most of my food ( I'm not one to whine to the wait staff) I just won't be back since there are so many other places that care about customer service. read more

This was our second visit to Sonny's in Spring Hill - and unfortunately will be our last. The first thing we noticed was that the entrance walk was filthy and so were the entry doors. Once inside, the lobby floor in front of the host/ess stand was so sticky, even the Host was looking at his shoes to see what he'd stepped in. Now, I might have dismissed this if it we'd visited at the end of a busy Friday night, but this was less than an hour after the restaurant opened on a Sunday at Noon and there were maybe a dozen people in the place. We stood at the host/ess stand for several minutes before we were seated at a booth near the door that was almost as sticky as the lobby floor. We should have excused ourselves and left, but our first visit there had been pretty good, so we decided to stay. Our waitress came to see us promptly and was extremely friendly and our hopes started to rise. We ordered queso with pulled pork, and it was pretty good. For lunch, I ordered a large brisket sandwich with bbq beans, and my wife ordered sliced pork with coleslaw. The brisket sandwich portion was generous, but the brisket was tough, rubbery and had no smoke flavor at all. It really had the texture of boiled meat. The BBQ beans were tasty, but barely warm. My wife's sliced pork portion was ridiculously small, which ended up being OK because it was almost too dry to eat. Her coleslaw, though, was very good. In summary - the staff was friendly and efficient, but the restaurant was dirty, and although the sides were ok, the BBQ was considerably below average. And a dirty BBQ place with lousy BBQ just isn't worth another visit. read more

The moment in the door the Smoked meat smell is hypnotic. We were brought to our table seconds after coming in. Our waitress could of been a bit better. She was nice but seems like she was in a rush. Other than that our experience was amazing. The food looked so good I dig into it before taking any pictures. I would 100% recommend read more

The baby back ribs at Sonny's were absolutely delicious--tender, flavorful, and perfectly cooked. The standout, though, was our server, Rhionna, who provided exceptional service with a warm and friendly attitude. A fantastic dining experience overall! read more

Today I picked up a to go order and was helped by an employee by the name of Dominique. She was extremely rude and disrespectful and made a huge seen in front of many customers making me feel horrible about myself. This employee shouldn't be working here and should be educated on mannerisms. Take your business elsewhere. read more

Sonny's BBQ - Employee Dominique - Barbeque Near Me - Spring Hill, Florida

I came into this establishment on a Sunday afternoon, naturally they were busy. I waited about 40 minutes to be seated, and then additional 10 to 15 minutes for a waitress to come by to collect our drink order. My children and I sat there for several minutes and the waitress was tending to other tables surrounding our area, and she never came by to take our food order. It's always humiliating to get up and leave and establishment before taking care of, but I had to work and didn't have time to wait around for as long as we were. I love Sonny's, unfortunately it was just a bad experience this time. I will try to update again later perhaps when they are not as busy. read more

My cousin was visiting from California and we couldn't let her go home without coming to Sonny's! Our lunches were prepared perfectly and our server Andrew was awesome!! Will come back very soon!! read more

Our family came for lunch, and they have quite a few lunch options for a reasonable price. I got the ribs with a side of apples, and the ribs were nice and saucy and full of meat. Also a choice between garlic and cornbread but garlic is the way to go. Their other signatures like the sweet tea is incredibly over-the-top sweet and a salad bar that is more to add on than their is variety of food there. Their side items are only okay. Not much in the way of veggies to balance out the delicious BBQ. They have good BBQ items but the rest is a bit hit or miss. The food came quickly and the service was great, so it's worth it for the meats. read more

Went to Sonny's for dinner. Was seated right away and the waitress Erin came over right away and took our drink orders and answered some questions on the menu. Erin was very nice and attentive and continually checked on us through our meal to ensure everything was good and and if we needed anything, the ribs were excellent and the sides were even better. Looking forward to our next visit. We will definitely be asking to sit in Erin's area. read more

Food and Service were good. The restaurant was set up very well for carry out orders, which is what we did

Food was great as always. Server was attentive and brought everything we needed. The remodel done recently made the restaurant seem much bigger. 10/10 would recommend. read more

Service was quick and the Sampler- Platter was very good and came with friendly Service.

As far as BBQ goes, it's great for a chain. My favorite is the Sliced pork, on garlic bread. Coming from Memphis TN , the BBQ capital of the world, it's different. But different isn't bad, folks, it's another kind of BBQ. Their sauces are pretty good and unique, buy a bottle ! I've been a Sonny's fan for decades now, and continue to be! read more
