I'm so very disappointed in the two combo plates we got here today. Ribs and brisket were terrible…read more Ribs fell apart and tasted overdone and no smoke flavored to the meat. The cole slaw was old and tasteless--a total waste of $40.00. We will not be returning.

Emily is amazing and sweet. She takes your orders here. They offer a stimulating, not only…read morecharacteristically wise, but also a beautifully well furnished atmosphere that I would love to enjoy once again. She was more than obliging and they have such cool little old knickknacks, you have to come try out this joint. We have been searching for a legitimate hyper rib joint that isn't killer or my arm with having a scrub dishes for 10 hours afterwards my man who was a professional cook does so fucking well, but we will see what happens and I only heard the best of the best of this place. You guys gotta check this place out and if you don't, you must be on crack.

I met up for lunch with a friend at Poppa's. The first thing I noticed was that the parking lot…read morewas full of pickups & utility trucks. That is always a great sign. Inside, the assembly line was going in order to serve the big lunch crowd. The menu is small but the quality is big. I had a pulled pork sandwich, 2 ribs, & a drink for $12. The pulled pork was very good & not loaded with any questionable fat or gristle. The sauce in the squeeze bottle on each table was excellent & complemented the sandwich well. The ribs were flavorful & tender & meaty, & I'm pretty sure I smacked my lips more than a few times. My only disappointment is I wanted more, hahaha. This bbq is solid!

I have not been to Sonny's BBQ in over 20 years because I thought the food was horrible…read more April 5, 2026 my friend and I decided to give Sonny's BBQ another chance. April 5, 2026 the food was good. Natalia who was our waitress she gave us excellent service. We asked Natalia to please make sure the food was fresh and hot. Natalia did an excellent job the food was fresh hot and tasty etc. We went back mainly because of Natalia accept this time she was not on the clock so we were given another waitress. April 11, 2026 OMG what a nightmare. (This girl only had 2 tables). It took this girl 20 minutes just to get our drink order. Then we asked this waitress to make sure the food was fresh so that it would be hot. Nothing was hot a matter of fact a couple of the items were cold in the middle the ribs and pulled pork were so overcooked they were sooo dry. We asked the waitress to please get us fresh hot food. She said "yes". This girl left our plates on the table we don't know if she ever informed the kitchen to re-fire the food, as we were waiting for the waitress to remove our plates so the kitchen would know to re-fire the food, the waitress proceeded to bring an order to another table then on her way back to the kitchen she stopped and was cleaning tables. (Mind you our food is still sitting on the table we are still not sure that she informed the kitchen). When we finally got our food it was tepid at best. We had enough and I asked for the check. We waited and waited then I had enough so I went to the guy greeting people at the door and asked him if he could please get our check. This guy basically told me NO. I then asked for the manager now it's like 15 to 20 minutes later I am now speaking with the manager when this girl walks up to me and rudely hands me the check and says something under her breath. The worst waitress I have ever met. My tip to her is "find another line of work, this is not for you".

Best BBQ we've found in St. Pete! Inhaled too quickly to take photos, will do so next time…read more While we've gotten takeout both times, the second time we went there early to pick up since it has such a nice vibe. There is plenty of space for outdoor eating, drinking, and playing shuffleboard, but due to the late July heat, we grabbed a drink indoors at their bar. 13 beer taps, which we weren't expecting and was awesome! The very friendly bartender offered small free samples when we couldn't decide. The kitchen was so fast, the 20 minute ETA was really closer to 5-10. It traveled well, and once home my husband and I both immensely enjoyed our meals: I got pulled pork (not super greasy, which is SO hard to find outside of Nroth Carolina!) and pulled chicken and my husband got ribs and brisket. We both got sides of coleslaw, beans, potato salad, and corn bread. Every single thing was excellent!! I loved that they put the BBQ sauce on the side (as requested) so it didn't get soggy, and then we could rotate between sweet, tangy, and spicy sauces. The beans were rich and savory enough to act as a fourth sauce! The cornbread was cooked perfectly, and the ratio of mayo-to-veggie in the coleslaw and potato salads were perfect. We will absolutely be back!
