We were not blown away by Sonny's on a recent visit, but clearly lots of families seem to like it because the place gets busy. The portions were average size, but the quality was below par -- I mean how can you ruin corn -- but ours was a plate of mushy, watery cobs! Food was just generally too soft... more
