The Polo Pony celebrates America’s diverse culinary heritage with elevated tavern classics and inventive chef-driven dishes for lunch and dinner.

The Polo Pony celebrates America’s diverse culinary heritage with elevated tavern classics and inventive chef-driven dishes for lunch and dinner. The sophisticated dining room, large bar, spacious private dining spaces, and lively outdoor patio set the stage for bold flavors, ranging from butter-poached mini lobster rolls and duck confit fries to a pastrami stack sandwich and buttermilk fried chicken and waffles. Guests can enjoy indulgent Certified Angus Beef® burgers big enough for two alongside seasonal salads, creative sides and rich desserts like a 16-layer chocolate cake, all paired with a cold pour from the 32-tap beer program. With a focus on bold flavors, premium ingredients and artful presentation, The Polo Pony offers a welcoming dining experience for any occasion.
