Sonny's has both corporately owned and franchised locations is probably why there is the difference in menu and specials. They do give more leeway to the franchises to allow for local favorites and tastes. Sonny's is my favorite BBQ chain because of the consistency that you get as you travel. I know that there are better BBQ restaurants around, but if you are in a place where you aren't sure and you want good BBQ, Sonny's is a safe bet in my opinion.

I am a little late on this thread but here is a comment on Sonny's.  I
have eaten at the Waldo Road within the past year and several times at the
Sonny's in Inverness.  I have to tell you that the one in Inverness is
better BBQ.  In addition, they have a wonderful special for us old folks.
When I am down, I eat there at least 3-4 times a week.Their sliced brisket
is very good.

Sonny's may not have the best BBQ in the country, but the Inverness
location has the best value, hands down.  (BTW, I am surprised that the
Sonny's specials and menus are different from one Sonny's to another.)

The original Sonny's is still out there on Waldo Rd.
It was pretty upscale to me when I was a student.

The Sovereign
Toby's Corner
Casa Palermo
Wolfgang's

Those were my go-to spots in Gainesville for independent fine dining.

I am sure that new restaurants have arisen to take their place, but can't
seem to find them.

Chains along 34th and Archer - sure, there a zillion.

But unique high quality restaurants? I am at a loss.

I did enjoy the Paramount Grill downtown.

Does anyone have suggestions for upscale dining?

I still like Emiliano's, but am hoping for a step up.

Outside of downtown would be a plus, parking is pretty tough on the
weekends.

Surely there must be something to the North and Northeast of campus...
