I don’t think I’ve ever had a better meal than what I had at Red Pony and that’s not an exaggeration. My mom and I traveled into Franklin from St. Louis for a mother-daughter trip and we were researching places for a nice dinner – SO happy we decided on this place as it did not disappoint. Such a great experience and cool atmosphere. Very attentive service with exceptional food.

Amazing restaurant! The dining experience is top notch, if a bit noisy at times. The service is professional, consistent, and amazing. And then there’s the food…

Nice dining experience. The service was great and the food was delicious. The portions are generous, we could have split an entree. The sour dough donuts are must try.

Let’s start with the ambiance… it’s a total vibe with the cutest little bar upstairs. The food was absolutely amazing!! We started with drinks and the guacamole. Best guacamole I’ve probably ever had. Packed full of flavor, a little kick but not too spicy!

My favorite restaurant in Franklin! I’ve been here twice and each time they have been spectacular. The servers really show knowledge of the menu and explain everything in thorough detail. They bring you a special tasting from the chef if it is your first time which no one else does anymore! They really do stand out with their food and service!!

I was well advised to have dinner here on my first trip into Franklin Proper. I didn’t have a reservation and was dining solo. The nicest guy personally took me to the upstairs bar area to a table. The bartender was attentive and entertaining. The food was well worth the investment.
