After church me , my wife an 10 of our church members/ friends planned to meet at SONNYâS Bar-B-Q To fellowship and enjoy a meal after church.

I hate to be one of the generic "Well, I'm a Texan" folk, but I'm going to have to put that persona on for this review. So, apologies in advance for the ad nauseam Texan references.While enjoying a nearby restaurant, my family and I couldn't help but keep commenting on the wonderful smell of smoked meats making it's way through the air (it's a Texas sixth sense, after all). After making our way back to the hotel, I made it my mission to figure out where that wonderful smell was originating from. Low and behold, it was Sonny's just a few blocks away! Considering that we were off the next morning for Disney World, I had to simply live off of those beautiful meat fumes.But, lucky for me, we had to once again pass through Pensacola to make it back to the land of Texans. This time, we got to taste test those beautiful smoked meats that created that gorgeous aroma.Once we arrived, we were seated immediately. The restaurant itself was clean, well lit, and well themed. Our waitress was quick to take and deliver our drinks, and was great at dodging all of the jokes that we managed to build up during our drive back from Disney. The food? Well, let's just say I was pleasantly surprised! When it comes to brisket, I tend to be a little overly critical. When I ordered my sandwich, I asked for the fattiest/wet pieces of brisket that they could find. They delivered! My brisket sandwich was FANTASTIC! It was a little smaller than I'm used to finding in Texas, but we're all fat . . . So, maybe that's a good thing? Either way, it was great.I will say, I was less than thrilled by their baked beans. They were overly acidic/citrus flavored. I'm sure that's a regional difference, but I didn't enjoy them at all. Their rolls, butter, french fries, and mac and cheese were all delicious as well.Needless to say, when we make our way back to Disney in October, we'll be making a point to stop at Sonny's!

Sat and waited 15 min to be waited on when someone else walks in behind me get served before I did. Maybe hey should have a pull number system.Pay attention who comes in first. Had your back turned so you couldn't see who came in First. I was going to buy lunch for my whole crew I decided to go to TOP'S Instead Thanks for Nothing

This is a spot to hit on a Monday for their full rack ribs special. They are perfectly done, come with a side of your choice, add in a decent craft beer list, and a great staff and itâs the right place to be.

Butch's has absolutely delicious food! Everything is very fresh and well prepared. You also get very large portions for very reasonable prices. Not only that-the service is friendly and fast also. Today we actually talked to Butch himself and he's a super nice guy! This is definitely one of our favorite places to eat when we go to the Perdido area!

Hot Spot is our go-to spot for bbq. I always order the pork sandwich and my wife the chicken. Their potato salad is our favorite side. The staff is always friendly. The food is always delicious. And when we feel naughty...we take a slice of lemon pie home. The pie is heavenly! It isnât too tart like some lemon pies. Enjoy!!
