Sonny's Real Pit Bar-B-Q

Welcome to "Feel Good Bar-B-Q"

  • Smoked slow, served fast
  • Takeout and Catering
  • Order barbecue sauces

At Sonny's Real Pit Bar-B-Q, you'll always enjoy authentic Southern barbecue at its best--always tender, always juicy. Over the years, Sonny's has added specialties, such as sweet and smoky barbecue ribs, hand-pulled pork and tender fall-off-the-bone baby back ribs. Sonny's barbecue is prepared the old-fashioned way with a hardwood smoker then served up fast and friendly just like the old days.

But great barbecue isn't the only reason folks stop by. You'll also find a relaxed atmosphere and a warm smile every time you come in. We've been pleasing customers since 1968 and perhaps that's why we're America's largest barbecue chain with more than 150 restaurants operating in nine Southeastern states. Whether dining in, ordering takeout or letting us cater your next event, one thing's for sure--we're going to make you feel good!

Editorial Review for Sonny's Real Pit Bar-B-Q – by Sara Levy

In Short
Owner Sonny Tillman has been serving the same Southern barbecue and fixings since 1968. A common roadside stop, Sonny's offers low prices and barbecue; roomy booths, wagon-wheel chandeliers and homey craft art are the standard dining room decor. House barbecue sauce, available sweet, regular or hot, spices up large helpings of smoked beef, pork, chicken, turkey and ribs. Sides like fresh fried okra, onion rings and barbecue beans complement the entrees.

3 Star Rating: Average

With the exception of the beef (which is always dry and tasteless to me), the barbecue is all right. The baked beans are EXCELLENT. Portions are large and you definitely get your money's worth. The service has been average. We've had some great servers and we've had some not-so-great ones. But I must admit that when the service was lacking or there was a snafu in the kitchen, the management made up for it by comping our dinner. Be prepared to wait during prime dinner hours on Friday and Saturday nights.

Pros: Baked Beans, Management, Parking

Cons: , Skip the bbq beef
