Food: Respectable food, but uninspired

Sonny's Pizza & Pasta might not win awards for taste or freshness, with complaints of bland and stale ingredients, but their originality sparkles.

  • Okay Taste

    Mixed reviews with some finding food satisfactory and others less impressed.

Vibe: Warm ambiance blunted by noise

The restaurant possesses a really cozy, inviting ambiance that beckons patrons to relax and dine comfortably. But the subpar musical selections and limited wine inventory leave space for improvement. The external noise and occasional parking hassles counterbalance its buzzy popularity.

  • Great Ambiance

    Cozy, warm, inviting ambiance enhances dining experience significantly.

  • Okay For Dates

    While romantic for dates, also suitable for casual meals or family gatherings.

  • Bad Drinks

    Limited and overpriced wine selection negatively impacted dining experience.

Perks: Ample parking? Forget about it

One would be hard-pressed to find an easy parking spot near Sonny's, and expect to converse at a higher decibel than imagined. Also, the blase attitude and ponderous service can be nerve-grating. Outdoor seating helps offset this and impressively, dietary demands aren't greeted with eye-rolling.

  • Great For Kids

    Extensive kids menu and high chairs greatly enhance the family dining.

  • Okay Outdoor

    Casual vibe with both indoor and outdoor seating options

  • Bad For Groups

    Does not take reservations, causing long waits for big parties.
