Great restaurant. We live in Fort Worth, but were meeting some friends from Dallas and decided to meet halfway. We are thankful that we chose Restaurant506. It is in a quaint hotel and the food is excellent. Our service was exceptional from start to finish. Very attentive wait staff. The appetizers (scallops and crabcakes) were delicious. The salads were really good, and I highly recommend the buratta. Most of us had salmon, either from the menu or the special which was blackened. We will be back! read more

Hidden gem in Arlington. Wonderful atmosphere, friendly staff and great food. Very impressed overall.

Had a quick lunch date with the wifey and at first was very skeptical about this place. It looked like a bed and breakfast in a older establishment. But don't let that fool you. The food was actually surprising good and service was great. I probably wouldn't bring a big group here but it was perfect for the two of us. We had the filet, it was a little over cooked but the potatoes were delish. Wifey had the scallops risotto and that was actually my favorite thing there. I would definitely try this place again maybe for dinner next time. Probably the best spot for elegant dining for the area. read more

We arrived in workout clothes around 1pm and were told they only had seats outside on the porch, (it was 95 degrees), when I clearly saw 4 clean tables inside, not a big deal, their clientele was an older dressed up type so I get it. 5 minutes later another couple came in dressed up and was sat inside. No other customers arrived after that. The service was great overall, and the food tasted great. A quarter of the way through the meal we noticed a hair in the food, we didn't say much just mentioned that we didn't want to take the food home because there was a hair in it. They ended up taking half off of that one plate, so in the end they felt the food was still worth $11 with a hair in it. Overall decent experience we probably just had bad luck. read more

The Sanford House has the best food and the best service. Period. I've been lucky enough to have had brunch here several times and dinner a couple of times and I cannot recommend it highly enough. Tonight was no exception. The food consisted of a selection of appetizers and they did not disappoint. There were wonderful tenderloin skewers with a savory sauce as well as chicken and mushroom in puff pastry. The little dessert fruitcake bites were superb. The service at the bar was top notch as was the rest of the serving staff. We were in the outdoor area of the Sanford House, which would be perfect for a wedding and subsequent reception. Make reservations for dinner or weekend brunch at the restaurant. You can thank me later. read more

I love the Sanford House Spa and have visited Restaurant506 for brunch in the past to my delight. But, my dinner visit brings mixed emotions. Let's start with the good. The waiter was attentive and friendly, and the ambience was serene and welcoming, and the bartender spared no alcohol when it came to my drink. I also had a steak Amushe Bouché that was very tasty. The meals however, were just OK. My daughter's chicken was bland and her sides were just as tasteless. My crab cakes were better, but still underwhelming and did not live up to the ones I've had at the Spa and while dining for brunch. Definitely passing on dinner in the future. read more

I've driven past this place for years, not realizing the Sanford House has a restaurant inside as well. We came for Sunday brunch, it was a nice sunny day so we chose to sit outside. The weather was gorgeous, I had a newspaper in my hands, and some gentle classy music was playing lightly in the background, I was in heaven. I went for the biscuits and gravy, which was a very generous portion and it was delicious. I ordered a side of bacon but that was nothing to write home about. I also had a bloody mary, which was garnished nicely and taste good to boot. It is a little bit more expensive that other brunch places but has a total different atmosphere. Service was good, the only slow part was waiting for him to bus our plates and bring the check. read more

It's our anniversary week so we decide to venture out and try this restaurant. It's so cute and cozy. I think we should have told them we were there for our anniversary, maybe then they wouldn't have sat us next to the table of 6. It was clearly a business dinner and I now know more about the Health Industry than I did before (and I work in that industry.) Back to the experience ... our waitress was not very attentive. We could count the times she came to us on one hand while the other waiter was in very attentive to his guests. Once the manger came to box up my food she the became very attentive but by then it was too little too late. But again, the restaurant was very cozy and the food was ok. I gave it 4 stars really because of the atmosphere and the area. I highly recommend the Tabasco onion straws...they're amazing! read more

Always great food, ambiance and service always out of this world. Make a reservation is recommended. Sitting at the bar is also great.

The restaurant is charming and the food and service are great. Sit in the bar for Sunday brunch and ask for Micheal. He is the best!

Haven't been here in a while and I'm so glad we came back! Jacob was great, very attentive, knowledgeable and provided fast service. Everything from the mimosas to the pancakes and avocado toast was delicious. We will certainly be coming back! read more

Our food was mediocre. Our server was fine. What really made this experience negative was the fact that when my party of three walked in for our reservation, the two ladies at the front COMPLETELY ignored us. We stood there for an uncomfortable amount of time while the two women stood at the hostess desk and continued talking to each other. The lobby was small, so there was no way they didn't know we were there. A gentleman saw us and had to walk from the back, through these women to help us. At this point they didn't even bother greeting us or apologizing. The decor and table setting were nice and the food portion of the experience wasn't horrible. The sorbet palette cleanser was a nice touch. There already aren't too many "nicer" establishments in Arlington, so we were disappointed to see that this restaurant won't be considered in the future. read more

First off this place is absolutely charming and so beautiful. Brunch was mouthwatering to say the least! We had the Eggs Benedict and the Stafford Breakfast and both were unbelievably delicious. The service was amazing and I highly recommend Mike as your waiter! Thank you Restaurant506 for a wonderful meal in such a delightful setting with attentive and very welcoming wait staff! read more

Had a great dinner at 506 on a Saturday evening after we'd been to a Rangers' game at Globe Life. Inside of the Sanford House B&B 506 has great ambiance as you feel like you are eating in a large house. Definitely different than a traditional restaurant and it was welcome. The wine list was good but not great. But, you could have some wine with your meal without breaking the bank. We had some rose, a nice cab, scotch, and port. All good quality even if the variety is not there in the menu. To start we had curried lamb lollipops, chili garlie octopus, and crab cakes. All were winners but the lamb was probably the table favorite. The flavor was fantastic and the chicken was cooked perfectly. To eat, I went with the duo, which was a roasted short rib with a demi glace, brocollini, and lobster rissoto. I loved all of it, very strong entree. Others at my table had the Steak Diane and pork chop and all were liked. For dessert, we went with the tiramisu, chocolate creme brulee, and peanut butter chocolate bread pudding. The tiramisu was a miss for me but I really liked the peanut butter bread pudding. I will say the appetizers and entrees were stronger than the dessert selections. Very cool experience to eat in such a nice setting and have excellent food. This is worth missing a "normal" restaurant experience for. Check it out if you're near there, well worth your evening. read more

Good food. Nice atmosphere. Our server was great. Checked on us several times. Very laid back.

We went there for Brunch on St.Patrick's Day which is also my wife's birthday. We were also able to bring our German Shepherd so we sat on the outdoor porch area. It was a beautiful day and the food was Amazing! My wife and I had the Eggs Benedict and my kids had the biscuits and gravy. While our meal was superb, those biscuits and gravy were to die for. We are from New Orleans and the gravy tastes like Étouffée sauce. Come to find out, the chef was also from New Orleans. Can't wait to get back there soon! read more

Lovely and classy restaurant in a bed-and-breakfast old home. Very well decorated for Christmas time. A small bar in the back with only two or three chairs. Food is fairly expensive but the atmosphere is quiet and private with only a few tables in each room. I had the scallops and lamb lollipops for my meal. Both were very good but $20 is a lot to pay for only two scallops. I wish they had more European wines by the glass. read more

I've only had brunch here. Everything I've ordered has been fantastic. My kids love 506! I have not had a disappointing meal here before. It's my favorite "hidden gem" in Arlington! read more

This is a wonderful little gem in Arlington that everyone needs to try. Apparently reservations are encouraged.. we were asked if we had one, and didn't. We ended up in the bar which is fine because we love sitting in bar areas anyway. $7 mimosas ($12 bottomless) with orange, grapefruit, and passion fruit to choose from. The brunch can be pricey. $12-$17 a plate but the food is superb. We had chicken & waffles and the pulled pork Benedict. Amazing! So good. Seriously great quality. It's a little fancy pants in the atmosphere for my taste, and our server seemed to be in the weeds that WHOLE time, long waits between visits to our table.. not sure if that's typical. If they were on top of service I'd give five stars! read more

Restaurant 506 is located within the Sanford House Inn and is an absolutely fantastic dining experience. Came here for thanksgiving and was extremely pleased with the choice as soon as I walked through the door. This place is gorgeous, homely and puts a heightened focus on customer service. The food served was essentially a fixed thanksgiving menu complete with an appetizer, main entree and a dessert. Each and every dish was cooked nearly to perfection and was promptly delivered to the table with a smile on their face. The server was kind and friendly from the upon arrival all the way until departure. Overall, This place is a highly recommended and likely one of the best dining experiences in Arlington.

My first time to dine here and was so happy with the entire experience. The environment and setting was very much pleasant. Pleasant in the sense the noise level was not very loud and my friend and I were able to enjoy our conversation without raising our voices. Our server provided excellent service throughout our meal. The food was excellent all around. I enjoyed the beef tenderloin with shrimp but I was very surprised by the taste of the horseradish mashed potato! Blew my tastebuds away! Wished we could've stayed for dessert, but had to attend a show. I will definitely return to this quaint spot, it's worth the drive. read more

Soo this definitely is not the kind of restaurant I frequent haha but I must say that I really enjoyed my experience and will forever cherish my dinner there! The outside is the epitome of fancy! Beautiful mansion that was converted into a bed n' breakfast type of place with an adjacent spa. My friend had driven by the place multiple times, and being intrigued by the gorgeous garden, had her eye set on trying the place out. We "researched" the menu beforehand and honestly were a little bummed by the $$$, but the appetizers and lunch menu are A LOT more affordable. Now for the experience: warm, cozy and welcoming to say the least! Nice hardwood floors and interesting antique décor, fit for 17th century aristocrat haha, ok well maybe not, but really. Our server Luis was very enthusiastic and even took the time to explain each dish to us haha it was like he translated the menu into English for our proletariat-selves ;) He was very personable and patient with us! The complementary appetizer was an exquisite crab, cheese and spinach puff pastry. It was described as a "palate cleanser" which I thought was interesting because it alone would've been heck of a comfort food meal if it were larger! We ordered the tomato and mozzarella salad, the pecan crusted crab cakes, and ahi tuna tacos. The tomato mozzarella salad was pretty average in taste, but PLENTIFUL. Definitely could be a meal itself. The slices of mozz were my favorite part. The pecan crusted crab cakes didn't really taste like pecans at all, but were very tender and came with an arugula salad and some kind of crispy topping. The crab cake sauce was excellent. Again the portion size would be perfect for a light lunch. Now the ahi tuna tacos had to be my favorite of the three! Very interesting take on a taco - it was very Asian! It had a crispy fried wonton-type shell and raw sashimi tuna pieces! Loved them! It was like a crispy piece of sushi minus the rice and seaweed! The greens on top were perfect and the sauce had a slightly spicy edge! The desserts are really what pushed it over the edge!!! Eating lighter portions to save room for dessert was a GREAT idea! We ordered the strawberry bread pudding, chocolate mousse, and white chocolate cheesecake. My friends and I agreed that the chocolate mousse was the favorite. The light mousse is flanked with a chocolate crust and a really nice cream-marshmallow-like top! It was a perfect hit of chocolate with an lightly sweetened cream layer on top! I would honestly just come back for that alone with a goood cup of coffee. The white chocolate cheesecake was great, but nothing out of the ordinary. The strawberry bread pudding was an intimidating large loaf haha! It was HUGE. But I think it could be a good breakfast strangely enough. It was a little dry for my taste and didn't have any fresh strawberries on it. It had some type of strawberry sauce. If it were a bit more moist, more pudding-y and piping hot, I probably would've liked it more. I definitely want to come back for brunch!!! read more

I like this place because it's different. A restaurant in a house setting - I would recommend going here for a special occasion. When we walked in, the staff was welcoming. We had bread and I like how they had little horderves for us to try in between. We got the jumbo crab cake, lobster ravioli, shrimp and scallop, and the chocolate melting ball for dessert. Our waiter was prompt and very great as well. Looking forward to be back soon for next special event! read more

This has been one of our favorite spots for weekend brunch for years. We ate there today and it just wasn't the same. We had reservations and they sat us in an empty dining room, near the window. In no time at all, two women with a loud, unruly child were seated in the dining room with us. I know they have 3 separate dining rooms.... but we got to eat while listening to a screaming/singing/yelling child. It is our 45th wedding anniversary today and we had chosen that place to eat out. No, we didn't tell them it was our anniversary. We just wanted an elegant brunch. Not a chance- unfortunately the bloody Mary's were tasteless even after we asked for spicy, it was hard to distinguish that the crab cakes had pecan crusting. The eggs were perfectly poached. The service was great, except for seating decisions. However we certainly couldn't and didn't enjoy our meal and we were anxious to leave. Very disappointing. read more

Stepping into this restaurant was just like being welcomed into your family's old historic home. Such a beautiful place to have brunch and dress up.

This is the first time I came back to this restaurant since 2020. I came here for wedding shower for one of my team member. It started great and it seems we were getting great treatment. The reason I gave one star because they didn't treat my wife well at all. Honestly the waiter racist to my wife as we were the only minority there. He also knows that I will be the one paying the food but decide it to deliver my wife l's food the last which was the same food with 5 other people on our table and she gave my wife less scallops, different plate and less portion. You always need to give food first to the lady which is basic common sense. I am not sure we will come back again because of this kind of treatment and we just spent more than $1k tonight. This is very sad and my wife didn't tell me earlier during the dinner time but I saw that she was sad after this kind of treatment and she told me afterwards. Please kindly treat people the same way and please don't do this to other people anymore. The food was great but the bad experience especially to my wife just unacceptable. read more

Great food. Good service. And a quiet, relaxing atmosphere. My wife and I love coming here. Always a treat.

Enjoyed brunch and dinner on multiple occasions and over many years. From celebrating or just an intimate moment, 506 has never disappointed. Service is always A+ along with the front of the house. The food choices and overall quality is excellent. read more

We asked to sit outside because it was a little cool inside. My wife asked if we would be ok out here ie service. We sat for a good 5-10 min no one came out. They sat another party and the server was pronto and filled their glasses with water. We waited a few more minutes cause by now we are ready to order and still no one. No water, no food, no service. Even made a reservation to add insult. read more

This is an Awesome Restaurant I had the Caprese salad and the Sanford House Crab cake, they were both delicious and my fiance had the Soup de Jour and the Grilled Isle Salmon with couscous both were also delicious.

Went for brunch with a friend. Food was alright. Atmosphere was cute. But the waiter ruined my time there. Rather than get my order from me, he just asked my friend because she's been there before so she just ended up ordering for me. Homeboy mumbled, but apparently he couldn't understand/head what I was saying whenever I asked for something. As most girls do, we take pictures of the food before eating. He walks by and rudely remarks "are we done instagramming our food to know what the food tastes like?" And we couldn't even have five solid minutes of just chit chat and eating without him coming by asking if we needed anything. Honestly I wish I could say I had a 'splendid' time, but I can't. My waiter was distasteful. I suppose he was hitting on my friend or something. But whatever. read more
