Sonny’s Pizza

Man ! I think I found my new favorite pizza spot! Came there with some of my buddies and we wanted to try a little bit of everything. My favorite was the new your cheese pizza classic! It was amazing, you can taste quality in every bite. From the cheese to the dough to the sauce ! It was bomb ! We also got the pesto for the people which was also yummy. The fried calamari was some of the best I had. My 2nd favorite was their margarita pizza and it was amazing ! The sauce on there is something else ! We finished off with their vodka pasta made Fresh! The sauce you put on was super yummy. They have a full bar with an amazing patio ( dog friendly). Restaurant was clean and the service was amazing ! Definitely coming back here!

Overall great experience, especially for only being open a week. Food and drinks were delicious and came out fast. Servers seemed like they were having a great time interacting with everyone, which also helped. The atmosphere is great....love the classic 80's pizza place aesthetic! Nice big patio that is also VERY dog-friendly (the servers loved our dogs and came by often to provide treats and water). Only negative are the prices....they are REALLY high even for the area. Maybe that's the new normal now for a new business, I don't know. Like I said, the quality was great across the board, but overall the prices did not match the portion sizes.

This place is about to become a neighborhood staple. When I tell you this is the best pizza place I have been to in a while I am not joking. The diversity of the menu makes this place truly special, the whole vibe combined with beautiful interior designs and item diversity with burgers, pizzas and drinks made it my new favorite sports bar to go watch a game or hang out. 10/10 recommend, you won’t regret it!

We came here on opening weekend and sat in a booth. Seating is first come, first serve and you order from QR codes on the table. The service wasn't bad but the experience felt a little cold/off since we didn't have a waiter/waitress...maybe something to just get used to. Really I felt like everything was good without being exceptional. For a bill that was ~$50/person I think I was expecting a little more. All in all, it was a good experience, not outstanding. Probably a once-a-quarter visit for me. Pizzas were honestly fine but a bit bland/boring. Mocktail was like $13 for pineapple juice and seltzer water...2 pies, 1 beer and 1 mocktail, 1 app. No leftovers and $100 bill.

Amazing experience over at Sonny’s. We went with the pepperoni cup pizza, the cheeseburger, and a ceasar salad. the pizza was cooked to perfection. Delicious and craveable! The burger was sooo good especially with its burger sauce! I could have probably went without the ceasar salad but nonetheless it was great! The building is beautiful and has plenty of outdoor seating. We will absolutely be back!

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️☆ (4.5 stars) We visited Sonny’s Pizza for the first time and had a really enjoyable experience. We ordered the No Sleep Till Brooklyn pizza, the zucchini fritters, and a glass of Cabernet each. Starting with the drinks—while the wine itself was smooth and paired well with the food, it ended up being more expensive than expected. It was the only item on the menu without a listed price, which we probably should have taken as a hint. Live and learn—but a little pricing transparency would be nice. That said, everything else really hit the mark. The zucchini fritters were outstanding—hot, crispy, and not overly greasy. They came with a mildly spicy marinara sauce that was flavorful and had just the right amount of kick without overpowering the zucchini. Easily some of the best zucchini fries we've had in a long time. The pizza, No Sleep Till Brooklyn, was also a standout. Topped with white oregano, mozzarella, mushrooms, speck, and red onions, it had a well-balanced flavor profile. The dough itself was a little bland on its own, but in a way that allowed the toppings to take center stage—and they absolutely did. The speck added a smoky, savory richness, the mushrooms brought an earthy depth, and the red onions added just the right bite. It’s a creative pie done right. We chose to dine on the back patio, which turned out to be absolutely delightful. It’s a cozy, relaxed space that feels tucked away from the street noise, and the fact that they allow dogs back there is a big plus for pet lovers. It made for a comfortable, unpretentious setting to enjoy our meal. As for the service, the vibe is laid-back with a staff that gives off classic Bro energy—but in a surprisingly great way. They were friendly, attentive, and clearly knew the menu. It’s always a bonus when the team genuinely seems to care about what they’re serving. In short, Sonny’s delivers on flavor, atmosphere, and hospitality. A couple of small notes—like the wine pricing and dough seasoning—but overall, we had a great time. See you soon, Sonny’s. We’re already looking forward to our next visit. 🍕🐾🍷

Pizza is the best thing on the menu. Everything else is just in case you're curious. Tables turn fast so just walk in and get on the waiting list. They provide live updates of where you are in line. They have an indoor and outdoor seating area. Not much table service since you order from your phone. Kind of a free for all outside but still a relaxed lunch or dinner spot with a chill vibe.

Our service was fast and friendly and the pizza is great! The Caesar salad here is my new fave. We enjoyed talking to Andre from Cicily and we’ll be back again soon.

Absolutely loved this pie--pure perfection. The crust was thin and crispy with just the right char - no flop!!! We did order well done, which I recommend. A no-frills slice of heaven, it's my new go to for cheese pizza in SD.

We came around 5ish and the place was pretty empty with about 5 wait staff standing around. Immediately did not like the vibes, everyone felt like they had no interest in being there. Salad was watery and the dressing is not a Caesar by any means. Hard to mess that one up but ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ Pizza (pep and mozz) was flavorless but had good chew. Super small for the price. What really got my goat though was the $15 half pour of wine that had definitely been open too long. No prices on the wine list and the gal taking our order was too young to have ever had a glass of wine so was of no help with pairing. Listen, there's that saying about pizza that even when it's bad it's good. Which gives them the two stars. But give me a thimble of expensive crappy wine and now you're just trying to upset your customers!

We had high hopes for Sonny's. We drove by months ago and saw the sign and thought "Small, local? Italian? Let's do it!" We really wanted to like Sonny's, but we've left disappointed this evening. I made a rez for 4:15 on a Saturday and to our surprise, the place was pretty empty- of customers. There was no shortage of front of house staff. One hostess sat us, while the rest of the staff kind of.. stood around talking to each other. One man, seemingly from back of house, brought waters and let us know to use the QR code to order. I don't love the seated qr system- but hey, your restaurant. Once we placed our order, our $5 soda came with, legitimately, no flavor. With very quiet music, I could hear the now 5 front of house employees talk about how bad the soda is, as they continue to deliver it to customers. We got a glass of wine as well, with no price point in the menu, and a short pour. I only say this to say- if you're going to Sonny's, maybe get a beer. From a can or bottle. We ordered the blitzkreig bop pizza, featuring cup pepperoni, a personal favorite. The pizza was thin, but tasty. Not a top 5 spot in the city, but I'll say this review would be better if we would have been eating just this pizza and had no other experience. The bolognese may have been the worst part of our entire experience. It was delivered seemingly by a chef, who was very clearly bothered by having to deliver the pasta- and I don't blame him. All of those front of house employees to not take my order, to not check on the table and make sure everything's good (it wasn't), and now to not even deliver the food. But then we get to the pasta itself- acidic. Not some sort of fresh lemon taste - no. Acid. Pasta also overcooked, by a good measure, and with minimal meat sauce, which itself, again- acidic? I'd recommend avoiding the bolognese altogether. So then comes time to close the tab. When we're approached by the staff, and (after we've already eaten our share of the meal and are clearly done) we are finally asked how we're doing- I didn't hold back on the soda. I let her know and she took it off my tab- while admitting she knew the whole time it was bad. We're finally asked for a tip, and it was hard to go much above 10%. We're industry, and we feel for staff without training or the proper tools to succeed- but cmon, man. Really hoping this place turns it around and gets better, because we deserve a good local Italian spot.

My friends and I tried this place last night and it was SO delicious! I was pleasantly surprised, we didn't have high hopes as there are plenty of pizza spots here. There is a lot of seating both indoors and outdoors with heaters/TV/music, and it's dog friendly, which is always nice. Staff were very welcoming and friendly. Parking is always a little difficult in NP. Definitely worth a try if you're in the area. Food review: Cucumbers: (5/5) These were so refreshing! Great crunch and blend of flavors. Caesar salad: (4/5) Simple and delicious. The dressing was very tasty and not too much. Vodka pasta: (5/5) Honestly, this stole the show for me. It was delicious! Loved the creamy/cheesy flavor. We wanted to order another one it was that tasty. Blitzkrieg Bop: (5/5) YUM. I love a pepperoni pizza. Crust was perfect, pepperonis were small, but thick and full of flavor. Def my fav pizza of the night. Pesto for the people: (3/5) This was just OK in my opinion. It was nice a light, with good flavor. Pesto was very subtle flavor. White Riot: (3/5) This wasn't my favorite. The ricotta had a different herb flavor that I wasn't a fan of. However, everyone else at the table enjoyed it!

Have been wanting to try this place since it opened. The place is super cute with nice outdoor seating so we brought our pup. You go into the main entrance and then pick your own table. You use the QR code to order and then they bring your food and drinks to you. Super efficient. The staff still regularly checks on you to make sure you have everything you need. They were all fantastic and friendly. We ordered the caprese and a pizza. I had a glass of wine and my husband had a cocktail. The drinks were good. The caprese was nice and fresh though I felt it was a bit expensive for what we got. The pizza was yummy! Thin crust and crispy. Very good! We will be back!

I was so excited when Sonny's opened and my wife and I had dinner just about a month or so after opening. The place was packed for a Thursday night. We had a short wait and were then ushered upstairs to the additional dining area which is much quieter than the first floor. The service was just non existent. After 20 mins someone came to the table and took our order. Food came at odd times. Pizza came first then an appetizer and the salad. All that aside the food was just ok. The pizza was pretty good but everything else we ordered just wasn't quite there. I'll give them another shot buy overall just ok. .

Inside the restaurant is old school with pictures hard wood floors and big bar in the middle. Dining in there's no servers( lack of customer service ) it's all runners who brings out your food and drinks because you order everything on a QR code. We ordered the pepperoni pizza and bolognese pasta. The pizza was good because it was a fire oven pizza with light sauce and you can taste the burnt from the over but, the pasta... oh boy the pasta tastes like hamburger helper. Soft pasta with little taste of sauce and meat. Hamburger helper has more flavor honestly.

We were driving around and searched for pizza and Sonny's came up. I was actually thinking of the other pizza place on Park Blvd. But we turned the corner, saw the patio, went to hunt for parking, which is even more of a challenge in the area since they installed those unused bike lanes. Friendly greeting, you are suppose to order from a QR code, but we sat at the patio bar and a bartender took care of us. We ordered a bottle of wine...no price though but oh well. Since they were about seven weeks new, we ordered the fresh mozzarella. Olive oil, lemon juice/zest, and basil. This was really good! Even better with the wine. We decided to share the Blitzkrieg Bop. Small for the price point, but very good. We also shared the tagliatelle bolognese. This was very lackluster. Not a lot of meat sauce and the pasta was overcooked. Even chili flakes didn't help much. Great outdoor patio that is dog friendly. A number of workers came out to say hello to Cako. She got treats from the twins who worked there, and come to find out, they are actually triplets, but their brother had the day off. The space has a nice chill vibe and the staff was really friendly. I understand the checks appear to be electronic, but we didn't see the total when I asked to pay. After looking at my text receipt, they forgot to add the wine. Now the kid in me was like, "hit the road and go!" But the adult was like, "I want to come back and don't want to be that guy!" So I stopped back by before leaving the area. 3.5, but I rounded up because of the staff. Cako Approves!

Man ! I think I found my new favorite pizza spot! Came there with some of my buddies and we wanted to try a little bit of everything. My favorite was the new your cheese pizza classic! It was amazing, you can taste quality in every bite. From the cheese to the dough to the sauce ! It was bomb ! We also got the pesto for the people which was also yummy. The fried calamari was some of the best I had. My 2nd favorite was their margarita pizza and it was amazing ! The sauce on there is something else ! We finished off with their vodka pasta made Fresh! The sauce you put on was super yummy. They have a full bar with an amazing patio ( dog friendly). Restaurant was clean and the service was amazing ! Definitely coming back here!

Brand new Sonny's Pizza by the team of Madison on Park (Right by University Heights) in collaboration with Chef Francesco of Cucina Migrante fame.. This resataurant has lot of character with sort of NYC Italian vibes.. It's also super cozy & family friendly with plenty outdoor seating. In the future they plan to also setup live music etc. in their large outdoor patio. Sonny's has imported a stylish pizza oven from Italy that can make 10 pizzas at the same time (and super quick too). Even their fittings like speakers etc. are designer custom made. As for the pizzas, loved most of them. Just wished that the pizza dough based was not that much charred.

Earlier this month, the owners of Madison opened an '80s style, East Coast influenced pizzeria around the corner from the overarching 'University Heights' street sign on Park Blvd. The previous tenant of the building was an auto parts business so much refurbishing was needed including the installation of an imported, custom pizza oven. The layout featured a covered outdoor back patio that had the most available seating with picnic tables. You could also sit at the bar or some booths in the main dining room. Menu sheets were available at the unstaffed "hostess" stand near the doorway. You then used the QR code available at each table to place an order. While it saved on labor, I didn't like how this made it difficult to ask questions about items on the menu. I will mention more about this later. "Pizza and Fine Food" was stated on top of the food menu. This consisted of appetizers, salads, charcuterie boards, pasta, a burger, and a few entrees in addition to the pizza pies. From the list of appetizers, I selected the Pepp Rolls which was made up of mozzarella, pepperoni, green onion, parmesan, and a cup of marinara for dipping. The problem was that the order came as four small rolls for a whopping $18! At minimum, there should have been six to eight rolls because one can get an entire small pizza for that price. Had I known the quantity, I likely would not have ordered this item, but this goes back to a lack of a dedicated server. The rolls had a slight burn to the crust to give some crispiness to them. For an entree, my choice was the Tagliatelle Bolognese. A beef and pork ragu made up the sauce with a touch of cream added. A generous grating of parmesan topped the pasta dish which was very savory. The $21 price was high for the serving size of the noodles. A cheery staff member did come by my table to see how I was doing after the food had arrived. I just wasn't sold on the absence of upfront assistance which would have influenced my dining experience at Sonny's Pizza.

I'm not sure how I feel about this spot. We were a party of two and we were seated upstairs away from everyone. We ordered the capers, gluten free bread which came with amazing marinara, and two pizzas. The crust is pretty good for gluten free. It was charred and thin with a good chew. But the ricotta on my pizza was super sweet. Like ruined my pizza sweet. I will go back because I do like the crust. But it's really pricy for what it is and the minimal service. I had to ask our server for a drink. Maybe we would have a different experience if we sat outside ... I'll keep you posted.

The sign out front was welcoming and fun. We were sat outside as there were no tables available inside. We needed to order using a QR code and creating an account with toasttab which was a little frustrating since we had to close out with the server and not the app. We ordered 2 pizzas which took about 40 minutes to make. We were extremely hungry by the time the pizzas came. The toppings and cheese were minimal and there was not a lot of flavor. Apparently, they were short a pizza cook which likely contributed to the long wait and possibly the quality of the pizzas. I'd like to go back and have a better experience so the wait and food quality could be attributed to the lack of staffing.

Pretty good! Came here on a Tuesday night, wasn't busy. Opted to sit outside at one of the tables. You can grab a menu at the front if you'd like an actual menu, but they have QR codes at the tables to look at the menu and order through. You can keep the tab open to order more and just wait to pay and tip til after your meal. We got the classic american supreme and the calamari. Total came to $40 without tax and tip. Could be a bit on the pricey side for a casual weekday dinner, especially if you'd like to order a drink. We were starving, so the 2 items were easily finished between the two of us. They also have pasta, so everything could be shared easily as a group. We were satisfied with our meal. I was content with the calamari and we enjoyed our pizza. Just wish we had more of it! It was classic, rightly named. I'm also a fan of the crust. I do wish they had more pizza options with meat. You can also build your own. Each topping ranges $1.50 to $3, so that could add up quickly. Would came back again since the patio is dog friendly and inviting. Also would love to see a happy hour menu! Sounds like they're still working some things out so I'd love to visit again. Desserts are TBD still. Since ordering is online, we also had to wait for someone to come by to get some water. Staff was nice though when they did deliver our food. Also keep in mind parking is limited. Expect to drive around a few blocks to search for a spot especially on weekends or at night.

Solid neighborhood joint. It's a casual place with a good vibe. Has a large pizza oven inside and an upstairs. I'm so happy this place opened up! It's a fun atmosphere with yummy food and cocktails and I plan to come again. They have mocktails too. Everyone was friendly. We had the Classic American Supreme Pizza (RIP Costco Combo pizza) and two cocktails. Pizza is on the smaller size; one pizza is great for two people. There is a large patio (kid and dog friendly). Ended up being about 60ish bucks. Excited to try the burger next time.

Absolutely love this new spot in Normal Heights! Stumbled upon this vibey pizza joint, Sonny's, during a walk around the neighborhood and decided to give it a try. We were greeted upon entrance with friendly staff. It's an open seating place - find a seat and scan the QR code on your table number to order. We sat in the outdoor seating area in front of the tv. They put on the Padres game, which was perfect! My husband and I ordered 1 drink each, 1 appetizer, and 1 pizza. The drinks were delicious! Strong, but so good. We also got the calamari, which was also tasty. The winner of the night was the pizza. I would come back and order the pesto for the people pizza + add mushrooms + pepperoni again and again. I'd love to come back and try more of their menu. They have pasta too! A plus is they are very dog friendly! They even gave my dog a little treat.

Nice vibe with plenty of very cool seating indoor and out. I like the atmosphere amd glad they serve great drink selections. They have a horse shoe bar which was a plus. We ordered the Queen Mar and Pineapple express pizzas. If you like NY TJ in style then its good. Crisp not as saucy. QR code after sitting to order. No servers. Fast service but dont expect staff to check on you much. Id come here to drink pizza was ok.

Nice spacious space with outdoor seating. The decor is vibrant with colorful wall paintings. The staff is friendly and welcoming. They encourage you to order from their bar codes but you can also order from one of the working staff. Their pizzas are small, pricey but solid with nice crust. They also have gluten-free option. What turned me off was not only the high prices but that they nickel and dime you to death on any extras (sauces, cheeses, etc.) or side orders. For example, I ordered the Branzino fish dish. It comes with just the fish for $28. There were no sides or sauce. I had to order a side of potatoes for an extra $4. If I wanted some green or sauce, it would cost me another $4-$8 and my fish dish would be close to $40. I know that restaurants have been jacking up prices since COVID and cut down on service/staff but this is crazy!

This place is cute for sure. They have a good selection of drinks and the cocktails were pretty good, especially their rendition of an old fashioned (Run DMC). While the people there seemed to be attentive and knowledgable, there were no waiters. You have to order at the counter or put in through a QR code, which works for smaller more casual places. For a place like this, where the menu and prices reflect a slightly more upscale pizza place, it wasn't the best fit. The pizza was good, but they should be considered personal pizzas. They're too small and light to feed two people. For reference, we got drinks, two appetizers and two pizzas for 4 people and it didn't seem to be enough. If you're hungry/eat more, you will definitely need more. Honestly, I think the pizza prices should be adjusted to reflect that.

Pizza is the best thing on the menu. Everything else is just in case you're curious. Tables turn fast so just walk in and get on the waiting list. They provide live updates of where you are in line. They have an indoor and outdoor seating area. Not much table service since you order from your phone. Kind of a free for all outside but still a relaxed lunch or dinner spot with a chill vibe.

Great customer service, everyone was so nice! Pizza is traditional NY style thin crust pizza with a bubbly and crispy crust. We got the gluten free crust and I'm pleasantly surprised it was the same size and texture as the normal. Makes me feel as if I'm not missing out! So many different cocktail options too and bonus points for having mocktails on the menu. They put attention to detail in all of the decor and it adds to the casual, family style ambiance. We'll be coming back and we'll return for the t-shirts!

Great food and friendly staff. It's cool seeing the big oven where they bake the pizzas too

Vibe is amazing! Super chill. Miles the bartender is amazing. He was rad at his recommendations.

Considering between 2 and 3 stars and decided to round up due to the positive atmosphere and great staff. To the 3 star review: the Cesar salad was a joke at $15, just a couple of lettuce leaves drenched in sauce, super not worth it. We got the supreme pizza and it was good, but super small for $20+. Overall I probably won't be coming back here, just too expensive

Starting with the positives: great ambiance, kind staff. Ordered: 2 Peronis, Calamari, Blitzkrieg Bop (pizza), Pineapple Express (pizza). The calamari was good but lacked salt. Easy fix at the table but still a touch disappointing given the price. I had seen a few photos of the pizzas online. They looked great online and looked great in person. The size on the other hand -- was shocking. The standard pizza size in inches wasn't listed anywhere as there is only one size available for purchase. These are personal pizzas at best. Nothing wrong with a small pizza so long as you come with the understanding of ordering more than you might think - especially if you come with a large group. My husband and I were relieved we ordered two pizzas. Everything was ok - the environment is fun, but economically there are better options out there.

Sonny's has that effortlessly cool vibe--great music, friendly staff, and a space that makes you want to hang out for a while. We had the Caesar salad, the Hawaiian pizza, and a Negroni, and honestly, all three were on point. The salad was crisp and flavorful, the pizza had that perfect balance of sweet and savory (pineapple fans, rejoice), and the Negroni was strong and well-made. It's definitely a spot for the full dine-in experience, but heads up: they don't do slices, which is kind of a letdown if you're just looking for a quick bite. Prices are on the higher side, but you get great quality and service in return. If you're down to share and soak in the vibe, Sonny's is a win.

3.5 stars Loved trying a new neighborhood spot! Great atmosphere and really well curated The pizzas were a little small given the price and definitely "personal" pizzas Dough was incredible but they should add an olive oil drizzle (especially to the white pie)

The food: mediocre at best. I had appetizers pizza, and pasta. They all lacked flavor and the pizza was undercooked. The ambiance: pretty good; t's cute and casual. The service: inconsistent. The servers seem very distracted. I have been here twice and will not return our recommend this place. The prices are way too expensive for the quality and too high for the portion size. The staff is not attentive and kept forgetting to bring a cocktail i ordered. When they finally broughtit to me, it was watered down and the ice was melted. I am very disappointed and will not be back.

Yo... Sonny's Pizza is bomb. Honestly, one of the best pizzas I've ever had no exaggeration. I don't know if it's the chef, the stove, or some magic combo of both, but they're definitely doing something right. The crust, the sauce, the cheese everything just hits. Just a heads-up, these are personal pies, not the kind you bring to a whole party, but that just means you don't have to share! I'll definitely be going back.

Excellent addition to the neighborhood. Top tier pizza and a well designed restaurant.

Great food, ambiance and service! Fede took great care of our table! Look forward to coming back

Quality food and fast service. Very pleased with the menu and actual food. I enjoyed the classic NY style pie. The pies are on the smaller side but the pizza doesn't flop and the sauce has flavor. Probably the best pizza I've had in San Diego. I'm from NY so pizza here usually is very sub par for me. Also enjoyed the shrimp cocktail and baked clams. I would skip the focaccia bread. Service was very fast and everyone was looking to help. Not sure what a lot of the other reviews mean by pricing- pricing is very in line with what all the restaurants around are charging except the food is actually good. No complaints. Will be back again.

Pizza is subjective, but theirs is not top-notch. The wine selection is limited--and no prices are listed on the menu. The approx 5 oz seemed meager for the $15. price. I get that cocktails are the latest trend, but wine really goes better with food. The wait staff is inexperienced, but very helpful. At least it was quiet enough inside to hear each other talk!

Food was good, but I don't understand their business model. The wait was about an hour. There was no wait staff to take our order. Instead, we had to use our phone to open an app, where we ordered from. It was like ordering on Door Dash. I couldn't ask anyone anything about the menu while trying to place the order. When you pay for it before getting the food you're asked to pay a tip. Before anything is actually done for you. Again, like Door Dash. We had to stop someone to actually get some water. Of course there was no one to check on us. I got a burger and my friend got a pizza. Both were actually very good. The alcoholic drinks that we chose were very disappointing and not particularly good. The other problem with not having a server is that there is little chance to upsell, which means they aren't getting more money. After having to order the drinks and food online, I wasn't going to bother ordering another drink or dessert. Had a server been there I'm pretty sure I would have ordered more. To me that's a missed opportunity for the owner as well as servers who get higher tips based on a higher bill. Given everything I don't see the point of waiting for an hour. Instead it would be much easier and make more sense to order at a counter and then sit while the food is being made. Or just order on Door Dash. Waiting an hour for a table for this just wasn't worth it. My friend and I were just frustrated and disappointed with the whole thing.

My wife and 2 kids went here recently for dinner. The bartenders were over the top friendly and helpful. We needed WiFi service for my daughter's iPads and the bartender came to our table to help us get connected. The food arrived fast (pizza, salad, and pasta dish) and was really flavorful and some of the better pizza I've had in SD. Only very minor complaint is there isn't a server and everything is ordered on a QR code or at the bar. I would come back to this place for sure! Also make a reservation if you plan to come during busy/peak hours.

Service and food were top notch. Overall vibe is good for hanging out with friends, going on a date or a night out with family. Kids and dogs welcome. Really well rounded spot. Feels casual yet elevated at the same time. Food quality speaks for itself. As soon as you step inside, you can smell the aroma of the fresh baked pizzas. Can't wait to go back!

So second night open and me and my bestie and love of my life went to try it out... it was great! Service was welcoming, place is super cute and food was great! It's close to my house (actually 16 steps away) so I will absolutely be a regular.

Sonny's is Kller, killer cocktails, great pizza, and helpful staff. Everything was taken care of from the moment we walked in the door. Don't miss this place!

I was excited to try this spot as I am an NYC transplant. However this is not up to par at all. I was sat at the table right next to the door/hostess booth which sucked, there really shouldn't be any table right there, its awkward and loud. They had me order off a QR code, which is convenient but also weird to not have any interaction with staff. At no point did they offer extra napkins, straws, etc, or come over to check on our table. This place needs to decide whether it wants to be a full service restaurant or a straight up classic pizzeria. Pizza was terrible, zero flavor, undercooked, I did ask the hostess if she could remove it from the bill because we just could not eat more than one bite. Decor is great, but that is literally it.

More cafeteria than restaurant utilizing Toast app to order results in no real service, no real connection to staff or the establishment. The most unneighborhood restaurant in University Heights. The kitchen uses quality ingredients but most dishes were under seasoned with portion size to price point failing to align. The pizza occupies that non-conforming middle ground between Neapolitan and thin crust styles that results in a chew that reminds one of a quality frozen pie. The cocktails and wine list shine, otherwise a total miss by the Madison group.

Food, atmosphere, drinks, vibe is wonderful! I highly recommend for you to come here. My and my fiancé enjoyed the evening. We really enjoyed Andrea's services. I highly recommend to ask for his service and advice on the menu. He helped us order pineapple express pizza. I ordered the Texas ranger drink and my fiancé the cucumber cooler.

My husband and were so excited to try this new neighborhood pizza spot and unfortunately we were disappointed. We ordered two pizzas for pick up via DoorDash. We drove to the restaurant after receiving a notification that our order was ready, and when we arrived, our order was wrong - they never made our second pizza. They offered to correct our order (it would be an additional 15 min wait) or refund us for the pizza we never received. We chose the latter option and left disappointed with the lackluster service and organization.

went for the first time with some friends and got the pesto for the people...worth it. our server jazz was also so kind and took such good care of us!! would definitely come back for the service alone :)

Was really excited for this place to open as I live a stone's throw away, but left feeling slightly disappointed. Pros: great vibe/atmosphere and service. Cons: Food - just average, but expensive. Came with my wife and a guy friend. I ordered a Negroni before food came out. It was very solid, but $17 seems steep for a cocktail served in a plastic cup. We ordered the calamari to start and 3 pizzas based on the size (we can shovel down pizza). Calamari was a bit cold and lacked crunch and salt. It was pretty mediocre tbh. Pizzas were fine, but they are personal pizzas for $20+. You get to the crust in 1-2 bites so it feels like you're mostly eating crust, which isn't great crust by the way. There is much better pizza in the area. My advice to management, embrace the NY pizza vibe and serve NY style pizza! I would be happy to pay $30-$40 for a big NY pie I can share with others. As of now, I'd come back to hang on the patio with friends and have a drink and share a small pizza as an app. But if I actually wanted pizza for dinner I'd go elsewhere (across the street).

Pizza was pretty good but we got here at 9:30pm (they close at 11pm) and they told us the kitchen had just closed. They did let us put in an order but the pizza was so small. Personal-sized for $19. Wanted to order a second pizza at 10pm and they wouldn't let us.

so much potential. We hope for improvement. TINIEST pizza ever. $53 for 2. The box was heavier than the food inside. Really Hope they read the reviews so we can get a decent pizza place here in university heights. come on guys. It's dough. Bronx is right up the street. At least match their size.

Fedes was the perfect waiter. Friendly, efficient and on top of his game. I ordered the pesto pasta and added chicken. It was amazing! Liked the ambience cuz it was outdoor setup and the music was just the right volume. Our party was able to hear each other unlike similar places where the music drowns the conversations kudos to Fedes

Use the barcode on your table to order do not wait for service. 12" cheese and sausage pizza $19. Specialty drinks $15 the bourbon rhinestone cowboy is better than the blue vodka cocktail. Ambiance good, the outdoor table are benches: Service meh. Parking a challenge.

Have been waiting for this place to open and it was worth it! The Pesto for the People and the White Riot pizzas were our favorites, as were the Brass Monkey and the Age of Aquarius cocktails. Everyone was super nice and the ambiance was killer. This is now our weekly go-to spot!
