    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

    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.

    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!

At some point all the orders came out except for one person on our table. It seems the order got lost so he got his food late.

Let me point out somethings that went right first. The service, owner, staff were all nice and for the "most part helpful". The food was good, presented uniquely, and there was not dish that was bad. But we expected something better for sure. Sooo... what went wrong, from the beginning we felt like an inconvenience since we had a party of four. We arrived and were offered to sit at the bar, I guess so we could watch the chefs, but were told that half through the dinner since other people will be showing up that we will have to be moved to the table, we just decided to start and stay at the table, thanks for the consideration, but your saying that our experience means less than the next reservation so we are now going to have to move you , wtf. Next, my wife unfortunately came down with a cold earlier in the week and was not feeling well that night but there is no cancellation policy, no big deal, she could tough it out. When we went to order drinks she asked for some warm tea to help her feel better and was informed they do not have tea, ok, but then you gave us some tea in the to go box, so genuinely confused now. Also, we were under the impression there was a larger drink menu, there is not, a couple beer options and lots of expensive wine options, no mixed drinks. We ended up ordering some of the wine, the wine was good but grossly overpriced. Before beginning the dinning experience you are presented with options to add to the dinner, they kept saying no pressure on getting anything extra but these are some nice items to add if you like any of these. This was presented by the waiter and the chef. I felt personally, I'm just going to order two things bc why not. So we were never presented with menu/ dinner plan/ what ever you want to call what is being served over the 11 courses, so one would assume the extras being offered would not also already be on the menu for the evening. But no, the additional items ordered were already being served that evening, so it was just an extra helping of what was being served. Why TF would the chef not mention this instead of letting someone add $80 for two tiny dishes which was already being served. At the point when this was realized in the evening I was beyond annoyed just trying to get through the evening and not let my frustration ruin the evening for the other party members. The venue is a small place the decor and ambiance is just ok. I remember seeing another review mentioning why the front window was not covered better to block out car lights shinning in, lol. And now I completely understand, not sure what the idea or lack of attention was to this but car lights shinning in the window while your trying to eat dinner is never enjoyable. We expected a better ambiance. It is not loud inside, soft music played but it was easy to hold a conversation with each other. But saying this, we had to repeatedly ask the chefs to repeat what they said when they were describing the dish being served. This continued to happen and we eventually gave up asking them to speak up and repeat themselves. They also seemed to be annoyed with us for this, simple fix, speak up. The additional drinks and items were paid for at the end, we were charged for a higher prices glass of wine than what was ordered but again I was beyond over this experience at this point. Looking back I should have had them correct the bill but I was annoyed and ready to leave. Not sure the price warrants the experience and we say that it does not after this evening. We would not go back, and feel like this experience will likely push us away from doing something like this in the future now.

I really enjoy her recommendations since it's never paid and just honest journalism. I think more Orlando influencers need to just be honest about what is good and what isn't good, rather than trying to sign everything expensive and trendy as such. Also I think when promoting things, people should practice discernment and ethics. I went there during my lunch hour and even walked there. I love it when cities are made to be walkable. It was a bit too hot, but city girl do what she gotta. I met a friend for lunch there. It's inside of a bank building. The staff was nice and it is an order and sit down situation where they bring it to you after you order. I got the honey lavender corn muffin and the Pig-Wich. First, the honey lavender corn muffin was insanely delicious. I still think about it. It's a nice dense and thick muffin that has a whipped corn honey lavender muffin. The sweetness of the topping and the crumb texture of the muffin made for a very nice bite. My rating is a 10/10 for this muffin. It cost $4. The sandwich is a breakfast sandwich with duroc bacon, egg that they'll make how you want it, cheddar, spinach, tomato, and garlic aioli on a brioche bun. I requested scrambled, just because as much as I like a sunny side up egg, it does make eating messy. This sandwich was a 9/10. It was delicious, well made, and easy hand held. Best part, it only cost me $10. Overall, I would rate them as a 9/10. I think what I got was great but there are other items that are a little pricey. However, if you're a downtown Orlando person and you work or live here. I highly recommend.
