We had eaten at Sonny's years ago...ribs were NOT good. Then my brother and SIL wanted to eat there when we were together here in TV....we were almost assaulted by the host....very loud and very aggressive w/his "hug"- his cologne arrived 15 minutes before he did....I'm not a prude, but I don't care to come chest to chest w/a stranger. Anyway, after that was over, we were seated - the service was okay....but the food was mediocre at best....then we found Oakwood....well needless to say we know where to get good, juicy, fall-off-the-bone ribs now...very ample servings and the sides are so good (limas, black-eyed peas, macaroni & cheese for example)....that's the place for us!!! (BTW, I don't agree with the comment that if you pay only $8 for a meal, then you should expect bad food...restaurants are in business to cook and serve you good food...Just my opinion...) don't throw umm tomatoes at me now!
