Sonny's Place

One of the best and oldest holes in the wall in Galveston. Replete with bullet holes and dents from a gun fight from years past. A good menu with good drinks, great food, and local camaraderie. This is a place you do not want to miss. If you’re a local and haven’t been to Sonny’s, then you ain’t no local.

Created right here at Sonny’s Place, it cost a little more, and takes longer to make, but it’s really tasty.
