Welcome to Sonny's Place, a gem nestled in the heart of Galveston, Texas, at 1206 19th St. This iconic establishment has embraced the culinary spirit of its neighborhood since 1944, becoming a beloved relic of bygone days.

  • Mouthwatering Muffuletta: One standout dish is the New Orleans-style Muffuletta, offered in whole and quarter sizes. This Italian sandwich features layers of ham, salami, mortadella, Swiss, and provolone cheese, topped with Grandma Theresa's signature olive salad. Priced at $18.99 for a whole and $7.25 for a quarter, it's a generous offering that satisfies both hunger and taste.
  • Comforting Soups and Salads: When the craving for comfort food strikes, choose from the Chicken Noodle Soup or Homemade Chili, ideal for sharing or enjoying solo. Don't miss the Friday special, Shrimp Gumbo, which promises a festival of flavors with every bite.
  • Classic Eats: Complement your meal with a crispy burger and golden fries. As noted by our guests, the portion sizes are not only generous, but the quality is palpably satisfying.

Sipping on a refreshing beverage or enjoying a mixed drink enhances the experience beautifully. The nostalgic charm of the old-fashioned jukebox, echoing tunes from legends like Patsy Cline and Elvis, sets the perfect backdrop for an engaging meal. Whether you're here for a casual lunch or a night out, Sonny's provides a delightful culinary journey that resonates with both locals and visitors.
