Biography: In 1910 Elias Bryan moved his family to Dallas from Cincinnati and opened the first Bryan 's Barbecue. His son, William Jennings Bryan, (known as Red for his hair) opened his own restaurant in Oak Cliff, Texas in 1935. Working with his Dad was William Jennings Bryan Jr., who was known as "Sonny". Sonny left Red in 1958 and opened his own restaurant on February 13th, the same day his Daddy and Granddaddy opened their restaurants. Since that time the legend has spread nationwide, in fact worldwide! Sonny's reputation for friendly service and melt-in-your-mouth barbecue has fed U.S. Presidents, famous entertainers, sports legends, and other famous patrons. Sonny Bryan's has been featured in all types of publications including television, books, magazines, newspapers and more.

Just celebrated my Mom's birthday last week by ordering a family pack on-line and treating her to Sonny Bryan's at my house. A good deal with the first time ordering online and a great birthday.

My very favorite BBQ place....even though I live in Colorado....when my brother lived in Plano several years ago and I went down to visit him....I asked him what the best BBQ place was and Sonny Bryans was where he took me...never forgotten the place.

There was a line, but it moved fast enough. The tables were full so I ate outside. The sandwich was great. The Pulled Pork was so moist. The fresh buns were SUPER. Can't wait to go back and try the next meat.

I was raised on BBQ and this is pretty good. Not the best I've had, but you cant go wrong here. The staff is very friendly and it's a fun place to go. Plus you get delicious biscuits when you go :)

Just tried Sonny Bryan's for the first time. Loved the food, but have to let you know how well we were treated by the staff. They took great care of us, we're friendly, and genuinely cared about our dining experience. It's rare to eat out and feel like you are more than just another customer. We will definitely be coming back!

Smoked brisket is one of my favorite food groups, and Sonny Bryan's does it right.
