Nice, new modern bar/ restaurant in lobby of brand new Hilton property. Huge portions, excellent food.
I think Desert Pony, is a hidden gem, the food, ambience and value can't be beat. Always enjoy my meal there!
First of all the servers and hostess were fantastic. We had Nicole and she was wonderful. I ordered a beef tenderloin, but I think it might've been a skirt steak cause I've never seen a beef tenderloin that thin and slightly tough before but it was still tasty. The chairs need to be replaced, completely uncomfortable. Your butt sits on the frame.

Desert Pony Tavern offers a delightful dining experience with a beautiful and open setting, perfect for enjoying their homemade flour tortillas and blackened mahi mahi tacos. The restaurant is located at the back of the lobby of the Hilton Hotel, which can be a little hard to find at first. The service is attentive and friendly, with servers providing exceptional service and ensuring drinks like iced tea are always filled. Guests have praised the food as very good, noting that the steak nachos and tacos were excellent, with portion sizes being impressive. The French onion soup received mixed reviews, described as good but not great. The restaurant is dog-friendly and offers reasonable prices for a hotel restaurant. Popular choices include the pretzels with beer cheese and Stack Burger. Although the patio music can be loud, it is recommended to visit to enjoy the live music and great food, with talented singers enhancing the experience. The bartenders are nice and easygoing, making it a great option for a comfortable experience. With management's commitment to accommodating guests, including large parties, Desert Pony Tavern stands out as a place for repeat visits.
