I enjoyed their $6 pork big deal today (sandwich, side and drink). After telling the waitress how much I liked it she said the restaurant is closing on May 14.

OK, I'll bite (pun intended).

WHICH Sonny's?

Lake Sumter location? Oh no

They chose not to renew their 5 year lease. Opened in May, 2009 according to the Gourmet Club website.

Never been. It’s not on the McRib level I hope?

I'm surprised something called the "Gourmet Club" would even know a restaurant such as Sonny's.

Some of them aren't too bad for what they are, but I once ate at the Sumter Landing location and it was scary bad.

Service or the food?

So another FMK?

Sometimes when a business wants a location, the lease can be out of the reach of current establishment

Please forgive the staff, they just got told Saturday. So if your server is drunk/stoned (as the outdoor bartender is today), that is probably why.

The food was awful, the staff was ....

I don't want to cast aspersions on my bartender that day, but the above post from another thread seems like an accurate characterization ... other than it was going on, long before today.

Oh boy

We went to the one on I think it was on 301/441/27 but I could be wrong (it was in that town before Ocala) and I have to say it was several notches below that of standard BBQ. We told the server and she swore that their meat was smoked but it was clear no smoke ring was evident.

Now we go to Mission when we want BBQ. I bought an additional pound of brisket and that served two of us for two days - succulent, tender, with a delicious red ring on it. At about seven dollars a serving you can’t beat it.

They had a great salad bar before COVID. They never brought it back so I will not miss them.

It has a large bar so it will not be empty for long.
