   Overall we had a great time and the food was very good. The brisket sandwich was awesome. Three of us ordered the cucumber side salad and we didn't like it at all. My biggest issue is that I like dark beer and they don't have any. Their darkest beer is what I would call medium. That won't stop me from going back though.

   We had a reservation for standard seating but got a patio table once we arrived which was a nice surprise as it was a beautiful day. We loved the food and drinks. Music was nice. We will be back!

   My wife and I had a wonderful evening sipping margaritas and listening to the music. This is a great casual venue, sort of like a great neighborhood pub. It’s large enough to move around so if the band is really rocking, you can get away from it, enjoy the music but still carry on a conversation. Corn hole also was a nice diversion. We really enjoyed ourselves.

   They canceled our reservation hours after we booked it, due to a music event. This is the second time that they have canceled a reservation I’ve made with them Bc of an event they were hosting. They need to control their reservations better.

   Shannon, we are so sorry! This is definitely not how we like to do things! If you are so inclined - we would love more information on this experience. (Ex . . .How far in advance was the reservation, do you know who contacted you?) Thank you so much!

    The music was so loud and we were right next to the live band. We had to scream to converse with our friends and actually lost our voices. Would go back when there is not live music or when the porch is opened up with warmer weather

    This is one of my favorite places to eat/hang however, Friday night was slammed packed. I waited for 30 minutes for a drink. I couldn't find my regular person so I asked a guy waiter (tall guy, red hair/beard) for my drink/waitress and he acted almost offended. Some of the staff were super rude.

    Thank you so much for your feedback, Dedra - and thank you for being such a great patron! So sorry the service was anything less than stellar for you! Thank you for taking time to let us know - without knowing we can't improve! Hoping to see you again soon!

    It was just ok the dip on the menu is GROSS! The couple next to us even agreed it was cold and nasty ! The glasses had film on them like maybe it should be ran in the dishwasher one more time with just water. I cleaned my glass with a napkin and water from my water cup. We didn’t stay long we had a table right next to the men bathroom which is gross ! Why would you have a table that close to the men restroom so people continue to walk by our table the whole time we were there. I don’t think I will try again . The waitress was super nice !

    The music level was unacceptably, ridiculously loud, so loud the server had to lean in so we could shout at each other. Conversation was next to impossible and less than pleasant. The service was mixed, with our server being very personable and attentive, but things like getting utensils and refills happening only upon request. Food was tasty and served quickly, but some portions were small. Sausage and cheese plate was nicely done. My sandwich and chili were fine, but didn’t really live up to their names on the menu. In other words, if I had been given either blindly and asked what they were, I wouldn’t have called them what the menu does. Parking was easy to find. Bottom line is I really wanted to like this place, but in a town with so many options hitting on all marks I don’t see myself coming back.

    Thank you for all of the feedback, HankY! Happy to hear that your service was fast and friendly. Sorry that the atmosphere and food were anything less that stellar! We hope that you will come back and give us another try. Thank you!

    Sonny’s is one of those fun places with a big patio with oversized Connect Four and Jenga. It’s bar food with smoked meat as the base. Food was above average bar food and the ambiance was simply fun. A great place to get together with friends.

    Sonny's is a great spot to hangout with friends. The margarita/beer/mimosa flights are a great value and delicious. We went from brunch on Sunday and got a cute picnic table outside. Its dog friendly so, all the cute pup vibes. I've also gone for dinner and drinks before. They have live music some nights w/ QR codes to request songs & tips the artist. Definitely a favorite spot.

    This is a fun place but that’s it. The food is mediocre at best, as it’s good “I don’t care what I eat let’s get drunk” place. Service is nice and so are the people/vibe but if you’re a foodie, keep looking.

    Pretty cool place, waiter was very friendly and made good beer recommendations. The BBQ chicken was just two grilled tenders with ranch dressing. I was expecting real BBQ chicken. The brisket however was really good. I would definitely come back and try other dishes.

    Hey there, TXCellistMom! Thank you so much for taking the time to leave a review with feedback! Sorry for the confusion on the tenders. We offer different toppings for our tenders and BBQ is one. We are happy you mentioned it because we can see how that would be misleading! Thanks so much - you have to come back and try the smoked brisket (we smoke most all of our meats including our wings . . soooo goood!)

    Shrimp was delicious and servers were very nice! I wish there was a way of knowing which spots you were reserving (outside cabanas by games vs inside) . Also no AC inside or it doesn’t feel like it so it can get a bit warm.
