Sonny's BBQ is not good. It's tolerable if you can smother it with their sauces and wash it down with some sweet tea. The worst part is that it used to be a good value, we would go 2-3x a week from work for the $4.99 lunch special, but that's long gone and the average ticket is north of $10 at which point it's not a good value.
In Tampa our choices are between slim and poor, my two favorite, Hog Heaven on 301 and Big John's Alabama BBQ on 40th street are now closed.
