Owner and head chef of Sonoy was Paul van Staveren.[5]

The restaurant was a member of Alliance Gastronomique Néerlandaise since 2006.[6]

Restaurant Sonoy was located in a former water tower, at a height of 40 meters.[7] It occupied four floors. During the transfer from the old location in Blokzijl to this one, which took five weeks, the staff worked in De Librije in Zwolle.[8]

In 2010, the restaurant won the "Sustainable Restaurant of the Year" award from Gault Millau.[9]

The Michelin star awarded in 2010 was the first one ever awarded in the (young) province of Flevoland.[10]

In March 2013, the municipality of Noordoostpolder, owner of the water tower in which the restaurant was housed, reviewed the future of the tower. A failed renovation caused too many problems.[11] The restaurant closed per 1 July 2013.[12] Paul van Staveren received a compensation of about € 275,000, but still lost about half of the money he invested in the restaurant in 2010, based on a ten-year tenancy contract.[13]
