Ribs , brisket , sliced ans choppec, onion rings , potato salad . Also, there is table seating in an aggitional building. Walk out east side of original building and open door into new area.
The old favorites--ribs, brisket and onion rings--still hit the spot, especially when doused with Sonny's original, thick sauce and washed down with fresh, cold iced tea in a foam Dr Pepper cup. Read more
Open 24/7!! The seating is old school desk and not many of them. Food was good and fresh. With it being 24 hours I was skeptical about freshness by the food was good. I had the puled pork and a rib .
Good golly that was lip smacking finger licking good. Barbecue and a cold beer on a hot day; sure hard to beat that. Get the beans, onion rings and brisket .
Use to be a time when you had to get there early, to get a meal. Now, they serve it all day. And dont let the atmosphere scare you.
It's great that they're open 24 hours now barbecue anytime of the day you want it
If you are in Dallas, TX and LOVE barbecue (and you should) you MUST go Sonny Bryan's! It's one of my favorites!
Cheddar jalapeño sausage sandwich was delicious
Brisket , onion rings and sauce were wonderful. Dallas BBQ tradition!
Brisket is fantastic, just arrived in town and told to come here. No complaints.
Brisket . Some of the best I've had.
school desks , yeah! During summer outside seating is not good....stay inside! Needless to say, food is great!
Thursday's special: Frito pie and drink.
The food was disgusting. The staff ran around unnecessarily hectically. The indoor seating area is tiny with only small individual school desks for seating. The adjacent building has tables but no A/C
Bring your own towel to mop the sauce off your face and hands. Eat there. The discomfort is fun and the customers are great--both tourists and locals.
The best part of my meal were the fries and the biscuit .
3/4 lb combo for 2: excelent choice
The ribs are amazing. Brisket is good.
Large rib dinner was amazing
Made our South's Best List! Try the brisket , sausage , and pork ribs . Read more
Grab some smoked meat before they run out and sit in the school desks just to say you did. - CBS DFW Read more
Food smells amazing! Unique and fun seating area :) i cant wait for my chopped beef sandwich !
Best brisket at the ORIGINAL Sonny Bryan's!
Best onion rings in Texas...maybe even the entire USA!
Soooo good!
Yumm - love some BBQ
Biggest onion rings , yes. Best, no, not by a long shot. They're dry and surprisingly bland.
Brisket & ribs
best BBQ in Dallas!
Frito Pie is some of the best.
Get the pulled pork .
Mediocre, unmoist brisket , pulled pork pretty good, ribs rather tender & moist.
Brisket and pork
Since when do the children run the daycare ?! Nothing but absolutely horrible service for the 2nd time in a row. Don't waste your time ordering online, they don't check it.
Try the three meat combo..
Small joint, good food!
Longer hours 10a - 8p Mon- Sat, 10a-3p Sun, they close if food runs out!
Frito pie is delish !!
Uses Styrofoam, food not very good and could not print a reciept.
The ribs are amazing
Try the ribs instead of the brisket .
Brisket . Onion rings . Oh man.
Pulled chicken is good. Onion rings so-so.
This is the original sonny bryan's.
Chopped brisket FTW
open Sunday now!
Decent BBQ , the ribs are pretty solid. The onion rings are huge, but so bland & the other sides are just so so. There are far better BBQ joints in Dallas than Sonny Bryan's
Don't eat here... BBQ is horrible and atmosphere sucks..
Try the Chopped Steak Sandwich - Uno de los mejores sandwich EVER!
Thurs. lunch special was the Beef Ribs, worth the trip, they were very tasty. - Brian P
If you have never been you should give them a try. Very friendly people and good BBQ as well. - Curtis Green
Amazing barbecue. Get there early–they tend to run out of food quickly. - allison wheeler
Very nice clean store with very fair prices. They have sales throughout the day so listen up. - Rober Taylor
What a great museum. Very well done. If your in Dallas Tx and into history it’s a must. It has a parking lot , parking is $10 for I think 12 hours. It’s a self guided auto tour. ???? - The Traveler
