Reviews for Sonny's BBQ in Fort Walton Beach, FL
We have been to this place a few times because the BBQ meat is pretty good. The service is spotty—some servers are better... than others. The food is sometimes old (even during peak hours)—just take a look at my fries. I likely won’t return. Ohyeah, the wood that smokes the food is stored next to the trash—smoke that goes into the food? Read more
First let me say don’t ever do curbside if you want all of your food this dish I ordered came with 3 sides as you can see I... only have two. Secondly the bake beans were so hard I couldn’t eat them the lid was also cracked on top I’m not sure why.The meat was very dry ribs and the chicken no smoke flavor at all. I was giving sauce in a packet never seen that from arestaurant. The only thing was tasty was the cornbread muffin that I ate. I ordered 3 meals yesterday for my family forMemorial Day at the beach, we all wasted $65 worth of food my husband Mac/cheese was runny.. I only came here because someonereferred this place, however never again. Read more
Great BBQ joint! Food, decor, and atmosphere were all amazing, however this restaurant, like many others, is plagued by short... staff issues. Wait times were just a bit too long for most customers I feel, given that there were still open tables. I orderedthe “Whole Hog” sandwich. This unique combination of pulled pork and sausage was delicious, especially when combined withtheir award winning sauce! Served with a heaping mound of crinkle cut fries and a tall glass of tea, makes this a meal fit for aking (or queen)! All around, this restaurant has my enthusiastic recommendation. They just need the server staff to get up tofull operating capacity, but don’t let that discourage you! Read more

Went on a Friday afternoon for a late lunch/early dinner. We had excellent service and very tasty food. We had appetizers of... fried pickles, corn nuggets (actually suggested powdered sugar with them which we thought was weird but ended up being verygood) and the pork egg rolls the pork eggrolls weren't bad but probably wouldn't order again they really had no taste atall. For main We had the sampler 2 different ways and both were great. Kids had a pulled pork salad and a brisket sandwich. Weactually had a Togo box which is rare for us and we all left full. Very satisfied, will go again. Read more
Wow I did not recognize the place when I walked in. I have not been there since they remodeled it is very nice. The food was... amazing. I wish I lived closer so that I could eat there more often. If you haven’t been do yourself a favor and run there.???? Read more

I’ve been to this location multiple times and I’m only now making a review, I don’t make reviews. Every single time I’ve... been completely ignored by the staff. I’ve seen a lady answer the phone and say “please hold” and just stand theremultiple times in a row. I’ve gotten attitude immediately upon entering without saying anything to the ladies upfront. Once, Ihad a lady throw the food at me into my window to hurry up and join a male coworker on his break outside. I’ve worked incustomer service and this treatment is unacceptable. Edit: This was only one of the terrible sandwiches I received. Thissandwich alone was a clear lack of effort. Read more
