  The worst bbq I have ever tasted. The brisket was 85% fat and the pork ribs were tough and horrible taste! Too bad because it used to be great!

  Found this hidden gem suggestion at the tower and it was a bit disappointing. I ordered both chopped and sliced brisket and both were cold and lacked flavor. The potato salad was okay and the coleslaw slaw was good. Not impressed with the beans as they were cold as well. The ribs came out last and they were horrible. They tasted burnt and they tried to cover the burntness with extra bbq sauce on them. Not bueno! The best were the onion rings. And of course I must mention the awesome customer service from Jessica whom just started working there but seemed like she had been there forever as she made everything on the menu sound so good. Can't say I will be back, too many bbq places to try in texas.

  This place has the best brisket. It is moist, tender, and has a lot of flavor. You don’t even need bbq sauce. Try the onion rings, you will be impressed. The bbq beans are amazing too. I highly recommend giving Sonny Bryan’s a try.

REMEMBER SONNY'S SMILING ALL THE TIME AND TALKING TO ME REMEMBER THE WAITRESS'S IN ONE OF THEM WAS STILL THERE THAT I REMEMBER I KNOW IN THE SEVENTIES. IT WAS JUST AFTERNOON, AND YOU COULD SHOOT. I CAN AND THROUGH THERE AND NOT HIT ANYONE. SHOULD HAVE BEEN MY FIRST CLUE. BUT I WAS TOO HUNGRY AND WANTED ONE OF THEIR FAMOUS CHEESEBURGERS HANDPACKED, NOT. WHAT DO THEY CALL IT SMASHED TIGHT HARD NOT DO JUICE EPISO Ordered the cheeseburger, where it a medium rare cheddar cheese.Lettuce extra mustard She says, yes, what else I said fries and a drink, isn' Fries in a drink is all you're gonna have No cheeseberg, rare cheddar cheese, lettuce, and mustard only It was like who's on first! Finally, with an attitude, she said, sir, we don't have burgers here I said you never said that Oh, I'm sorry. Well, I wonder why you were continuing.Asking So I ordered the polport sandwich She talks me into a poor boy.Devil meet Okay, I wanna double pork poor boy sandwich with double pull pork. Yes my name and I said sonny bryan. She says really seriously And I said, seriously, I want you to give a tribute to sunny bryan Never told him my first name or last name At one time, I thought did I hear my name couldn't Much later they call out my first and last name Jesus from a credit card So I go up to pick him up, and the guy says, sir, they'll take them to you.They'll take them to yuo. Fortunately, the theory french fries, we're still warm to medium hot But the frozen fake potato taste kind. I cannot believe this is happening to my sonny.Brian's. There would have been more beef and there was more meat on my friend's brisket sandwich And the poor boy wasn't like any poor boy I've ever had. It was more like a hot dog bun. That was almost firm and stale I had to use a whole bottle of sauce to get it.Where was edible and didn't eat the top part of the bun I am so so disappointed and i'm so so sorry for them. I used to have to stand and line at lunch and then stand in line with your food.Waiting for someone to get up to leave O M G I AM SO SORRY TO GIVE THIS REVIEW.

  Not great at all, for a place that's been around so long it was definetly lacking. I got the turkey sandwich plate with beans and potato salad and a sweet tea. The turkey sandwich looked and tasted like something out of a public school mess hall. The potato salad was completely mediocre. I don't even know how you can screw up beans, but they did, not bad, just bland. The sweet tea was watered down and barely sweet. Tried some onion rings and they were good, nice thick batter. Wouldn't go here again, I'm coming from Georgia so the standard is high but...
