   Perfect date night restaurant tucked in the Pearl Hotel. Bar selection is on point and the food is over the top. Very rich Americana style dishes so plan a palate cleanser accordingly

   I cannot say enough good things about Ponyboy. The service was better than most other trendy places in San Diego. The menu was fun and delicious, and the decor was cute and comfy. Came for movie night, left with the warm and fuzzies ❤️

   There is something so special and darling about this place, it was a perfect date night. We got the fondue which was absolutely delicious! Service was great, we felt so loved and taken care of! We also ordered the Mississippi roast and the Jidori Chicken Kiev both fantastic and highly recommend it! Thank you Pony Boy you are a gem and I’m so lucky we live so close.

   We came for Valentine's weekend, which had a special 3 course menu. Each dish was delicious and the servers explained the make up of each dish which made it even more of an experience. They had disney movies playing on the various screens around the restaurant which made for a nostalgic atmosphere. Highly recommend Ponyboy for date night

   What a fun night out with our daughter and her boyfriend. This place has such a unique vice and a fun menu. The ready cocktail selection was great and we enjoyed ordering some fun beverages to enjoy with dinner and for dessert. The deviled eggs were amazing! And our dinners were delicious and a fun twist on old classics. Enjoyed glancing at episodes of Bewirched while we dined. I’m sure we’ll be back l again!

   The pearl hotel has been a great place to get some drinks in Pt Loma for a long long time. Unfortunately, these days you're going to need a reservation because the food is just so damn good. Ponyboy has added their own spin to the concept of "dive in theater" and now the cocktails are perfect, and the food is so different from anything anyone else is doing in San Diego. I'm not sure how long they'll be able to keep the current reasonable price point, but for now it's also a relative bargain. Go now while you can get it

    Pony Boy is delightful in all respects. The food is fantastic and the staff is superb. We love the quirky throw back decor from the fifties. And no annoying sports on TV to ruin the great dining experience.
