Pony Espresso - SANTA YNEZ

My husband and I decided to try the caesar salad at this restaurant, and we asked for some anchovies to be added as the dressing did not include them. To our surprise, they served us white anchovies, which I had never tried before. The salad was delicious and the white anchovies had a mild flavor, not as salty as the regular kind I am used to. We also shared the flatbread, which was the best I've ever had. I ended up taking home my chicken cacciatore because I couldn't stop eating the flatbread. My wife enjoyed her carnitas tacos as well. It seems like not many people know about the dinner menu available Wednesday through Friday, but it is truly fantastic.

The tacos and Mexican corn were fantastic! We ordered the tacos de Birria and the carnitas tacos and they were both delicious. Very satisfying. We didn't have drinks this time, but we will next time. The outdoor seating had a lovely atmosphere and the service was excellent. We will definitely be returning! Highly recommend! We absolutely loved it.

Both the carnitas and the short rib taco 's were terrific. They serve them with a picante sauce and a red pepper sauce that are really great when you use both on the tacos. The caesar salad didn 't have any anchovy in it which was disappointing but still tasty. The mixed berry desert could just be the ice cream with a cholate sauce and skip the rest. Their corkage policy is terrible... $25, but if you buy a bottle of our over-priced wine we won 't charge you corkage

This restaurant is a great spot with tasty food! The soft tacos and street corn are delicious. Don't pass up this hidden gem in Santa Ynez.

My husband and I decided to start with a Caesar salad and ordered some sardines on the side, as the salad dressing did not contain any. To our surprise, we were served white anchovies, which I had never tasted before. The salad was delicious, and the white anchovies were milder and less salty than the usual anchovies I have tried. We also shared a flatbread, which was the best I have ever had. For my main course, I ordered the chicken cacciatore, which was so delicious that I had to take some home after I had finished all the bread. My wife had the Carnitas tacos, which were also excellent. The restaurant was not too crowded on a Wednesday night, which made our dining experience even more enjoyable. Overall, it was a wonderful meal.
