OK, so no one likes Sonny's. I get it. But, c'mon, y'all gotta admit Larry is the best host of any in The Villages.

Nothing wrong with chains. I happen to like Sonny's.

We just tried Burkes BBQ today, I had the Spare Rib Platter with scalloped potato and corn and the corn bread for $10 hubby had the 2 meat pulled pork and sausage , baked beans and texas toast and okra. The Ribs were fall off the bone awesome and very meaty, corn ok, scalloped potatoes ok, corn bread very yummy. Hubbys pork delicious and huge amount, sausage excellent, baked beans best ever . We will be back. Very clean and friendly. Net time wan to try their homemade from scratch cake it looked delicious! I ope they do good. We have been to Texas Stockyard twice and were not impressed at all, it was ok at best for the price. Like Oakwood a lot but usually so crowded. Haven't tried Westons but seems like more bad than good reviews.

Tried Texas Stockyard this evening and the food was very good. Had the pulled pork platter and had enough to bring home some. The sauce is a little different than what I am used to (but it was good). Being from VA, I am used to the Carolina style, vinegar based sauce. Maybe I will sneak in a little of my own sauce next time!!! Will definitely go back.

Oakwood is the best I have never anything good about Burke's, I don't like sitting outside with bugs and eating offof paper plates for the same price I can go to Oakwood and get the best in town. [I][U]Weston"s is the lousiest service and food I have ever had. Never again.

When it comes to BBQ, I support mom n pop shops. I have never had a bad meal at Burke's. Robin and I have eaten there at least a dozen times. They even have a good cheeseburger with meat that was smoked before it was grilled as a burger.
As far as eating outside goes, most people that come to Florida will go out of their way to find a restaurant with outdoor seating. Hey! Its Florida. And Burke's is loaded with outdoor seating. Unpretentious and homey. You might even get to be entertained by their little grandson. As always dining choices are highly personal, almost like religion, but I vote for the mom n pops of this world!
