Went Sonny’s BBQ in Clinton…
Went Sonny’s BBQ in Clinton Mississippi. I am not exaggerating when I say, it took 15 minutes— in a nearly empty restaurant- for us to be seated. That was our first sign. We were traveling, and hungry, so we waited. Someone csme and finally seated us and then no one came to take our order. After another 20 minutes— I had to get up and tell a random server , no one came to take our order. So someone finally did. That was sign #2. The young server was gracious, apologized sincerely and treated us well. It took another 30 minutes to get our food. This was sign #3. Why did we stay? The smells of bbq were so tiltilating- and we saw other delicious looking orders come out, for other customers- we decided to wait it out. Well, the hash browns with crispy onions, sauce and cheese- was a terrible disappointment— no flavor, processed crispy onions and the bbq meat on top was just pork fat. The competition wings that we ordered were hard and tough- again, no flavor. The bbq burger— my husband said, .. “ was fit for the dog”, and my baby back ribs were burnt, hard and crystallized sauce on one side— totally disturbing! I mean no flavor at all- except that sauce. I’d never tasted rib meat that was that awful!! By then I was mad! I requested another order of ribs and 25 minutes later, I got them. The garlic toast and baked bean were delicious. And that’s what I ate. We irritably paid for out $68 + meal and quickly left. We told each other, we’d never again eat at another Sonny’s BBQ place. 😠
