A good place to eat barbeque near the Florida Mall
This Sonny’s BBQ is located right off the east side of SR 441 in Central Florida, just southwest of downtown Orlando, Florida and just north of the Florida Mall. This restaurant is part of the well-known Sonny’s chain that started in Gainesville in 1968. This location delivered on the brand’s reputation for solid barbecue and good, efficient, and friendly service. The building is easy to spot and has plenty of parking around the sides and back. It was a little tricky to get to since the parking lot to the south of the restaurant did not connect with their parking lot. Inside, the atmosphere is classic new Sonny’s design. The seating is mostly booths with some larger tables to the back. We were greeted quickly by a friendly hostess and seated in a booth, which seems to be the default at most Sonny’s locations. The service was efficient from start to finish. We ordered the pulled pork sandwich and french fries with a tea for the drink. All of the food came out hot and fresh within minutes. The meat was tender and flavorful, especially when topped with Sonny’s signature sweet sauce (my favorite). For a full meal and drinks, the price came out under $35 for two people, which is a good price for a sit-down barbecue restaurant. All in all, this Sonny’s lives up to the high standards of the chain—reliable, tasty, and budget-friendly. A great stop for a good meal near the mall.

Shared the family feast for 4 and we were stuffed! Decent quality and very good value for money.

Could do with being a bit ‘smokier’ on the meats.

The waitress was friendly and attentive. The grilled chicken salad presentation was AMAZING! It tasted as good as it looked. My boyfriend got the pulled pork sandwich. He said it was delicious and tender. They always offer drinks to go. I wish they still had Sonny’s in Lakeworth, Fl.

I’ve bot been to many Sonny’s locations but this one was great. The server was fantastic and friendly, the ribs were delicious (seems like a hit or miss at most BBQ places), and at least when we went there was plenty of space during the week.

Highly recommend for a great BBQ option from what I experienced.

I was very disappointed with my visit to Sonny’s. We had previously visited a Sonny’s in Titusville and enjoyed it so much we were keen to make another visit. We visited at 7.30 on a Tuesday.
We were seated quite quickly but had to wait to be served. The server was really not very interested. We asked about a cocktail drinks menu and she pretended there wasn’t one. The drinks eventually took around 10 Minutes to arrive. The food took an additional 20 mins and was cold! Other guests got tired of waiting and walked out.
We would have complained but we did not see the server again.
The green beans were absolutely disgusting. They were stewed and stone cold.
We eventually managed to get the check, paid cash and left without seeing a server.
This was the worst meal I have had in 2 weeks in Florida. I will not return which is a shame as we enjoyed our previous experience.

I always have a good experience at this Sonny’s location specifically. There’s a worker there by the name of Ayriana. She is so kind, very attentive and will always make you feel welcomed. The food is always fresh and flavorful, and her positive attitude just adds to the whole experience, you can tell that she cares and I hope to have her again on my next visit.

Review for Sonny’s BBQ – 7423 S Orange Blossom Trail, Orlando, FL
Date of Visit: June 11, 2024 | Time: ~3:00 PM

I’ve been a regular at this Sonny’s location, but after today’s experience, I will not be coming back.

Despite the restaurant being nearly empty — only three customers inside — the service was extremely slow. Our waitress showed no urgency and lacked basic courtesy. I ordered the corn dip and asked for a chip refill, and instead of informing me up front about an additional $2.50 charge, she brought the chips to the table then told me there was a charge. That’s not just unprofessional — it feels intentionally misleading.

This kind of service reflects poorly on management. It creates a frustrating, unwelcoming atmosphere that makes you feel like your business isn’t valued. If this is what Sonny’s considers acceptable service, then someone at the corporate level needs to step in and raise the bar.

Very disappointed and frustrated. I’ll be telling my friends, family, and social media followers to avoid this location altogether.

Absolutely the worst service I have ever experienced. I waited over 30 minutes and was completely ignored. The staff continued serving other customers while I sat there without any attention. No apology, no explanation — nothing.

This level of disrespect and lack of professionalism is unacceptable. I would not recommend this place to anyone. Avoid it.

So let me tell you about Miss Erin, honey I come into this sonny’s BBQ just to have a quick little lunch and drink a beer and she was so nice fantastic great customer service matter of fact it’s crazy because my friend he he’s from out of town and he left me today and just caught a Uber back and went to the airport and I was really down, but she made me smile. She was so polite and something or somebody needs to recognize her before I get up out my suit.

The scenery of the place is peaceful and the food was good. Our server was nice and honest with us when it came to the food, they provided us their recommendations and I ordered the burger cooked medium well. Server said they tend to burn it sometimes so they put in a medium and it came out perfect they were honest and we appreciated it. I asked for my burger to come with garlic bread instead of buns and it was delicious with the swiss cheese.
