This review was written by a special guest writer and South/West Broward Correspondent, David Goldberg:
Sonny’s Hogies, located at 1857 Nw 66th Ave, Hollywood, FL 33024 , a fixture in Hollywood since 1950 something, is a no frills lunch spot specializing in cheesesteak sandwiches. It was recently buoyed by an appearance on Diners and whatever, and judging by its recent swollen lunch crowds, I would imagine Sonny’s loyal fan base has mixed emotions. I ordered a cheesesteak sandwich with mozzarella (Whiz is not on the menu) and onions, a side of tomato sauce, and a bag of chips (fries are not on the menu). As usual, the sandwich was tasty and fresh. The bread is baked in house daily and Sonny’s high quality meat is thin sliced and plentiful. Unfortunately, this particular sandwich had too little cheese on it with only one slice between the meat and bread, and it could have used more onions as well. For me, the tomato sauce just didn’t work with a cheesesteak sandwich, the complementary spicy peppers provided are a better choice. It should be noted that the author of this blog, who originally introduced me to Sonny’s, ordered a meatball sandwich that apparently was pedestrian.
Sonny’s Hogies is a high quality, superb choice for a quick and tasty cheesesteak sandwich, especially given its location in Hollywood where premium sandwiches are few and far between. Cheesesteak gets an 8.0/10
