What Chris Swan likes about Sonny's Bbq:
This place was great! The staff was very freimdly and attentive. And fast. We must've gotten used to slower service due to worker shortages, but the waitress surprised use by getting our food to us very quickly. And the food was amazing, too. Best pulled pork and brisket I've had in a while. ? View all feedback. What User doesn't like about Sonny's Bbq:
verily, I don't like to give bad reviews, but it seems that since covid it started it is usual, I order my regular meal the great combo meal pulled pork with extra. View all feedback.

Wow!! Sonny's is flavor, deliciousness, and mouth-watering food, from BBQ pork to sweet baked potato, to corn nuggets. I've never had a better meal in Kentucky....

Sonny’s has long been a beloved destination for BBQ aficionados, celebrated for its tantalizing flavors and warm atmosphere. Yet, recent visits have revealed a mix of experiences. While some patrons rave about the consistently delicious brisket and scrumptious mac and cheese, others have encountered disappointing service and food quality issues, particularly during busy hours. Complaints of slow service, cold dishes, and lackluster customer care have surfaced, contrasting sharply with fond memories of better days. Overall, while Sonny’s continues to charm many with its savory offerings, a few diners hope for a return to the high standards they've come to expect.
