Ponytail, known by the Japanese name Ponite, is a supporting character in the anime Welcome to the Outcast's Restaurant! She is a teenage girl who serves as a regular customer at the Adventurer's Restaurant, the establishment opened by the former guild chef Dennis after his exile from the Silver Wings Battalion. Her most defining visual feature, and the source of her name, is her ponytail hairstyle. She has violet or purple hair that reaches chest length and yellow eyes.

In the story, Ponytail is introduced as one of the patrons drawn to Dennis's cooking. The appeal of the food is so immediate that she gives the impression of becoming a regular customer from the very first day the restaurant opens, and she continues to appear as part of the clientele that gathers there. Her role in the narrative is that of a recurring guest whose presence helps show how Dennis's meals attract a steady following among adventurers and other outcasts.

Her motivation is centered on enjoying the dishes Dennis prepares, and her repeated visits establish her as a familiar face in the restaurant's everyday life. Her connection to Dennis is primarily that of a satisfied customer, with the quality of his cooking serving as the bond between them. Beyond her role as a regular patron, no further details are provided about her personal history, her reasons for being in the area, or any notable skills, and her development is limited to her gradual establishment as a dependable customer of the restaurant.
