Went on a Sunday, crowded cause it was around the time churches services ended. So we expected a delay. It was me my wife and nephew that went. Food was okay, we ordered 2 appetizers only got one cause one got brought to a different table. Fried onions on top of the new tater tot app were not cooked all the way. Nephew ordered ice cream for desert ended up never even getting that. Got both sorted out and taken off of our bill. Waited for 15 min to get card back and togo box.

Got there right after the Sunday Church crowd. Staff were still very attentive and the food was great. I asked if they had a senior discount and was told yes. When I was paying I was informed that they do not have a senior discount; however, since I was told so, they would honor a discount. Saved about five bucks. That shows me they are honest and have great food. Will be going there again.

Our experience here was a littler less than stellar. We had to ask a few times for silverware and paper towels. Long wait times even though the restaurant wasn't all that busy, which would have been fine in itself but some of the food came out cold, and when we approached the server about the cold sandwich she returned with another that was only barely luke-warm. I would give them another shot if I were in the area longer, but this experience was very sub-par.I do recommend the redneck egg rolls. They were very good!

I frequent Sonny’s with my family. And not given a specific bad experience at a particular visit, I’ll have to default to a 4 star. As the food is generally always good and service with southern hospitality.

Had a small problem with food quality for a togo order. The brisket was grease and fat and gristle. And the mac n cheese the same was ....see pic. The person in charge of TOGO did everything in her power to make it right after I brought it all the way back from home. I appreciated that. Second time the food was great! Just a heads up if you are ordering your food togo, check it before you leave and make sure the quality is the same as which would be served in the dining room.

Sonny's bbq is one of the better chain bbq restaurants in the area. Their ribs, brisket, pulled pork and chicken are delicious. The Whole Hog Sandwich can't be beat. I have to admit their sides are just ok. Nothing ever seemed special about them.

Forgetful service, lukewarm food, had to remind them of food that wasn't delivered with the rest of the meal. Not a great night at Sonny's...

I had the sliced pork. The flavor was outstanding the meat itself was very juicy and tender. I wasn't impressed by the sides, the Mac and cheese I thought was overcooked and the beans probably came from a can. The potato salad on other hand I loved. My server was super friendly and it's nice. Also the bathrooms were very clean.

I met with a friend here, and the food was just as good as my " home" Sonny's. Our waitress, Savannah, was fantastic. I had fried okra and a sliced brisket sandwich, and the ordered banana pudding to go. I recommend this Sonny's location!

Had a great experience at this Sonny's! All you can eat ribs plus mix and match sides is a great deal. Demi is an excellent waitress. She is very sweet and attentive. Definitely going to return next time I'm driving through Palatka.
