Restaurant506

Very quaint place that's perfect for a date night or Sunday brunch. The entire venue is full of history. We didn't get many photos but the food was really good. If you like local bed and breakfast-type stays, this is also your place. They have a lovely spa (located across the street). That's also the overflow parking lot.

Elegant atmosphere at this small restaurant in Arlington, with pretty decent food. We started with the scallops with bacon jam, and had the lamb chops and gnocchi with shrimp, all three were pretty good. We went there in other occasion for brunch, which was just OK, my omelette was somewhat dry, but overall it is a pretty good place to go to, sit down and relax the calm ambience. Good service too.

One of the best dining experiences I've ever had. Beats anywhere I've visited in New York or L.A. Fantastic specialty cocktails. Order whatever the night's special is. You won't be disappointed.

The special of the day, Salmon sandwich was phenomenal. Our office loves to visit from the food and holiday decorations. #tradition

What a gem! The food was delicious. We ordered sea bass, shrimp and scallop pasta, and steaks and shrimp. Everything was so good. Steak was perfectly cooked (medium rare), Sea bass was like a giant scallop melting in your mouth. Scallops and shrimp were cooked to perfection 👌. They gave us a tour of the hotel accomadations. This is a great place to stay after a night at the Arlington Music Hall 🎶 I honestly haven't had a meal like this since moving to the DFW area.

Adella made our dining experience, Michael gave us all the info on the restaurant and boutique hotel. Sarah is the best Manager-taking all of the great pics of us in the courtyard. This will be one of our must stops when we return to TX 🤠 **Our 17th Anniversary 💜

Impeccable service & beautiful atmosphere. This was the perfect place to hold my aunt's surprise retirement dinner! We all enjoyed the ambiance and the food. Michi was an outstanding server. We would return in a heartbeat! Fantastic spot for a special occasion.

A hidden gem smack dab in the middle of the D/FW metroplex. Who knew Arlington had such a treasure!! A spa with all the amenities, beautiful rooms and villas for an overnight stay or weekend retreat, and the most delicious food from their elegant and refined restaurant. We had brunch on Saturday. They close at 2 pm. We arrived at 1:30. And they served us with impeccable service until we were ready to leave. We never Felt rushed, but felt relaxed and completely enjoyed or whole experience. Everything we ordered was delicious!! My favorite was the sweet cream pancakes! The best I've ever had anywhere! Great coffee! The breakfast potatoes were so silky soft on the inside with the perfect crunch on the outside. Can't wait to go back and have dinner. A wonderful place for Tea or lunch with friends or even a fancy romantic dinner. Love this place!!! Reservations recommended.

Haveta tell you about this brunch dish today. You already know what we think about this lovely and elegant dining venue. Anne went with the traditional Bene today and it was excellent. Perfectly poached eggs! She requested grits as a side and the grits here are really, really tasty even though they're just Quaker. Quaker? Really? You kidding me? Quaker? I'm incredulous. LOL. . But anywho... my dish... the grilled shrimp frittata. This dish features three large grilled shrimp, very tasty large diced bacon pieces, roasted Yukon Gold potatoes, onions, and sautéed fresh spinach. When I think frittata I think a scrambled egg dish that has all the other ingredients mixed in with the eggs and then baked like a quiche without a crust. In this prep the scrambled egg is cooked in a small skillet flat egg style, and then all the other ingredients are layered on top of the fried egg. This is just so enjoyable. This is now my Go To brunch dish here. And I took half home for breakfast mañana! It is large. So good. The strawberry, beet and goat cheese salad was so good as always. Breanna was our server once again today, and as always she rocked the service rendered. She is so enjoyable, attentive and knowledgeable about the dishes and their preparation. Love 506.

Okay first and foremost I'm just going to state that you just need to try this place. This is an old home converted into a restaurant, and the core and the ambiance is amazing. , the antique furniture and most of all the ambiance. Didn't have any loud music, nor do they have any super bright or super dark areas. The lighting was just perfect. Their artwork was amazing too, it kind of all came together. Early Americana, 1930s type The food was amazing , we had the steak. We split it, and there was plenty to go around. , we shared a plate and it was amazing. We had appetizers and we were not disappointed. That are very large wine selection. When it needed something from the bar they provided it. They made a very special for us because it was a birthday party so that was very very nice. In fact, they had a little card on the table that said happy birthday which was great. They also provided a small dessert on the house for the birthday girl The only with this place is parking, but there is parking across the street near the spa, and a very small parking lot right next to the restaurant itself. While we were there there was a wedding reception and it seemed like they were having a really good time Would I recommend this place. Absolutely. Their staff was amazing, was wonderful and the food was excellent

It features "Inspired American" cuisine. Their culinary team creates seasonal menus to keep things fresh from the ingredients to your table. For brunch we ordered: *Creole Biscuits and Gravy Eggs Your Way, Lyonnaise Potatoes, Fresh Baked Buttermilk Biscuits, Cajun Andouille Sausage Gravy *The Sanford  Eggs Your Way, Bacon and Sausage, Sweet Cream Pancakes, Lyonnaise Potatoes *Beef Tenderloin Filet  4oz CAB Tenderloin, Herb Roasted Yukon Potatoes, Tender Asparagus, House Demi. Everything was delicious and service was on point! It was a phenomenal fine dining brunch! The fam & I felt transported. We hope to experience it again along side the accommodations and amenities.

This is my second time coming here, first time didn't yelp it ‍. It's a very nice establishment located in what was an old inn. The parking is very small but there is plenty of street parking. It was pretty packed but we got seated very quickly inside and they also offer outside seating as well. The menu was just the right size offering breakfast and lunch options as well as a chef special. I opted for the soup du jour which for that day had chicken breast and vegetables in it. I also had the crab cake eggs Benedict and that was delicious. Damn bear licked the plate. It was quiet inside and made it easy to have a conversation with any sized group you may have.

This is the restaurant in the Sanford House B&B in Arlington. The food and service are impeccable. It's a an old house that's been converted, so the decor is very opulent, but not in a bad way. Overall, this place is excellent and we'll definitely be back.

What a cute place for brunch! We went around 1 pm and it was super busy so I recommend making a reservation beforehand. Even with the reservation, we had to wait around 5-10 minutes to be seated, but it was during graduation season so completely understandable. I hadn't heard about this place until I was brought here but i'm definitely bringing my girlfriends here next time! The food was incredible too, especially for brunch. I had the Pecan Crab Benedict which was easily an 8.7/10. It was very unique for brunch but incredibly yummy. The short rib omelet was also very good (7.8/10) but very filling (if you're counting your protein this is a good choice haha). The last thing we got was the Creole Biscuits and Gravy (7.1/10) which was yummy but didn't change my life. The meal, the ambiance, the service were all really good. Definitely a quality brunch spot to bring friends.

This is a historic property and beautiful home converted to a restaurant. It looks like a tea room but they have a good sized menu and full bar. The food is excellent and service perfect. Highly recommended.

Such a cute place for brunch! The muffins we got were very tasty and not dry at all. The pecan crab Benedict is a must get! Loved it.

I'm so glad I stumbled upon Restaurant506. I was looking for a place in Arlington that accepted reservations for Sunday brunch and after reading the reviews, I decided to give it a try. The restaurant is part of a luxury bed and breakfast spot in downtown Arlington. I recall one review saying this place gave "women who brunch" vibes and I totally agree. I met 2 of my friends here and was greeted promptly by a friendly hostess. Our server was knowledgeable and made great recommendations. I ordered a mimosa which was refreshing. We all ended up ordering the same thing - French toast with bacon. I added a side of breakfast potatoes which were the perfect combo of crispy on the outside yet soft on the inside. I'm definitely looking forward to going back with hubby to try their dinner service and to check out the spa. Overall it was a great experience.

Found this gem through Yelp and quickly made a reservation online. It was easy and our table was ready as soon as we got there. My only regret is not paying attention to the cowboys schedule, they had a home game and this was close to the stadium so traffic was nuts, I would have just left the house earlier. Parking was a breeze even with the game as their spa across the street had plenty of parking. We were quickly seated at a lovely table near the window. The table was so nice and formal and the overall vibe was more quiet and reserved, not your typical crazy brunch place - I loved it! We got bread quickly and the smaller muffins I believe were pumpkin flavored and were so good! I had the pecan crab Benedict, after asking the server to explain more. The pecans are in the crab cake batter as the base. The crab cakes were rich but so tasty as was the red pepper hollandaise! Such a tasty meal. His creole biscuits and gravy had such a unique flavor and he ate every bite. The potatoes are also a nice compliment to the meals. Overall we had a nice quiet brunch with amazing food and really enjoyed the space. Service was also very friendly and quick.

I was here for yoga and brunch. The restaurant is in a great location and very nice inside. Quiet and not loud. Yes, this has a feel of "ladies who lunch," but it is so much more. When we were there, the guests were a mix of couples, business to groups looking to simply enjoy a great brunch. The food offers a modern Texas flare on traditional brunch elements. PS - Get reservations to make everything super easy.

We were visiting Arlington and decided something different and memorable was in order. We were not disappointed! The ambiance is a lovely recreated Victorian style home, with soft jazz and white tablecloths. Our server Michi was attentive and helpful. We ordered the halibut special and the rack of lamb, paired with a nice Pinot. Perfectly prepared, and complemented with an amuse-bouche and limoncello pallet cleanser. The house salad was also nicely composed. We would highly recommend it!

I love this spot. A hidden gem in Arlington at a well-managed bed and breakfast, this one you want to try. I love the atmosphere, vibe and staff. The patio area is wonderful for events and the spa across the street is a good spot to get a spa treatment and pop over for lunch. The food is delightful and full of flavor and attention to detail. I haven't had anything I didn't like here. The full bar makes fabulous drinks rounding out a killer experience!

In the heart of downtown Arlington lies an oasis of fine dining as delectable as cities 4 times its size. All of the courses we ordered were not just delicious but creative (browned butter scallops and tres leches cheesecake, for example). The wine list was short but well-rounded, and the traditional bread basket was anything but traditional (think crostini crossed with French bread). The veal scallopini was divine, and the chicken melted in your mouth. Absolutely save room for dessert, hand-prepared by a pastry chef. The ambience is classic but not stuffy, and the service staff was delightfully friendly and professional.

Came here about 2 years ago and have always talked about coming back. This place is beautiful! The service was incredible. The food was delicious. We will definitely be coming back.

Overall good experience. Nothing mind blowing but the food was good and booking a reservation on open table was very easy. It's very pretty inside and very clean. We only appeared to have one server for the whole area so the service was a little slow. But nothing that would keep me from returning.

We arrived at the Restaurant506 for our dinner reservation and we were seated promptly, the decor is proper for an antique home, clean and elegant. We were seated and served immediately. Our delicious meal was a world class winner. Our waitress was exceptional, she kept our glasses full and the delicious plates kept on coming, from the avocado toast, to the house salad, to the shrimp and grits, to the crab cakes, to the short rib and the shrimp and scallops over pasta, and finished the night with their bread pudding and coffee. I could not describe the delicious perfection on every dish, I will let my photos do the talking. Before we walked out, we were already planning our return. We loved it, and we don't say that lightly!

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

If you've spent any significant amount of time in downtown Arlington, or have friends who do, then you've heard of The Sanford House and brunch at Restaurant506. Lucky for us, they do more than brunch. The Sanford House is a beautiful little boutique hotel with a gorgeous courtyard and stellar little restaurant in Arlington's historic district. There are two main dining rooms and each looks like a cozy Victorian sitting room, complete with antique furniture and grand oil paintings in grander frames. There is seating outside on the wrap-around porch and in the bar area as well. You might want to make a reservation for weekends and date nights because it can get pretty full. I prefer a quieter weekday lunch or evening cocktail. My last lunch here I enjoyed the burrata salad with a bowl of their soup of the day, a lovely lentil soup. The burrata was perfect and the tomatoes and arugula were fresh and flavorful. The soup was well-seasoned and velvety, peppery and hot. A super-simple, beautiful, fragrant, and filling little meal enjoyed at my favorite window seat with a glass of dry white wine recommended by my server. I kinda feel like I'm dining at Downton Abbey when I eat at Restaurant506... it feels sort of quaint and special so you're apt to slow down and take your time, to really enjoy. The lunch menu is modest but mighty. Soup, several gorgeous salads and sandwiches, crab cakes, a burger, a 4oz filet, bruschetta salmon, shrimp scampi, a scallop risotto... Dinner is delectable with Boursin-stuffed chicken, shrimp and scallop Angel hair pasta, Korean glazed salmon, confit leg of lamb, braised veal, bone-in pork chop, herbed rack of lamb, surf and turf, fish of the day -- and that's leaving out all the appetizers and desserts! Then of course Restaurant506 is famous for its weekend brunch with dishes like Creole biscuits and gravy, crab eggs Benedict, beef tenderloin filet and eggs, lemon and blueberry pancakes, prosciutto flatbread, chicken and waffles... Chef David Pacheco really created an incredible menu here. Oh yeah, and THEN there's all the craft cocktails. It's a fantastic restaurant with a phenomenal staff and really great food. You don't need to wait for a special occasion to visit!

Had dinner at Restaurant 506 when we were in the area. The decor is very inviting, and the staff was very friendly and attentive. It has a very intimate feeling. They brought us an octopus hors d'oeuvre which was fantastic! The salad was very fresh with a delicious vinaigrette dressing. I had the lamb chops which were cooked medium rare but still a little tough. The broccolini was delicious seasoned with lemon and garlic. My husband had the hanger steak...one of his favorites and hard to find on a menu. It was flavored perfectly and cooked medium rare. The potatoes were a bit sticky, and we didn't love the flavor. The bread pudding was good but dry. We would definitely dine there again if in the area.

The restaurant is in a cute little house with a beautiful porch & courtyard. We had reservations for brunch & were immediately seated upon arrival. The staff were attentive & very friendly. They made great recommendations! I had the scallop risotto which was amazing! Overall a great experience!

The brunch I had here with others recently was delicious. Everything smelled good. Everyone at our table enjoyed their meal. We were seated promptly, and our server was friendly and attentive. Overall, the restaurant was lovely. Thank you. My one and only suggestion would be to have tables bussed in a more timely manner as there were several in our area in need of resetting when we arrived.

Went to brunch w my friends and puppy and will definitely be going back. We sat on the patio and enjoyed the amazing weather and food. Michi was amazing, giving fantastic recommendations and spoiling my pup. She recommended the special and hibiscus lemonade mimosas and both were amazing. 10/10 overall - everyone left happy, full, and ready to come back.

My husband and I had the steak, the crab cake, the scallops, and the shrimp pasta. All were extremely well executed and left us wanting more. I highly recommend this hidden gem. The service was impeccable, as well. It was the perfect lunch date for us.

This restaurant is located in the Fairfield Inn... A beautiful Victorian that hosts many a wedding. The backyard is amazing beautiful. The food at the restaurant is in the dining room, and it's one of the only places in Arlington I've been given, and Abuse mooch... a pleasant little bite to warm your palate, their food is equally high class and beautiful. The presentation is gorgeous and the food is delicious... But it does come with a high price tag. But it's totally worth it. Many people in Arlington. Go there on a special occasion.

Very enjoyable and delicious meal with an inviting Hallmark-like ambiance. Service was excellent.

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!

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!

Oh my goodness I loved my brunch date with my ladies at Restaurant 506. During Christmas it is decorated so beautifully. I am looking forward to making brunch during Christmas time a tradition at this place. Eggs Benedict was my choice and it did not disappoint. Our waitress was kind and professional. She even took a picture of our group. Dont forget to get a picture on the stairs in the lobby before you go. Great spot! Parking is across the street, along with about 5 spots on the side of the restaurant if you are lucky enough to get one. The street in front of this place is a one way so Be Careful! Venue for weddings as well. Very Clean bathrooms.

The restaurant was nice. The food was good. Hubby had a stuffed french toast and wife had breakfast sandwich. We sat at the bar which bartender was really nice. Not a very diverse restaurant though ... let's just say we stood out from everyone else.

I've had this restaurant in my bookmarks for a while now. I tired to make a res for Valentine's Day last year about two weeks before and couldn't get anything. I tried again this year about a month before and still couldn't get anything! So I went with Sunday brunch as a condolence prize!! It turned out to a lovely sunny morning. We chose to seat outside, thought I did want to experience the atmosphere inside. Nevertheless we both really enjoying dining a la fresco. Porch sitting, newspaper in hand, light background music on. Service was decent, a little slow towards the head. Ended up having a refreshing cocktail rather than a hot cup of joe with the sun basking on my face. I went with the crab cake benny as my entree. The little muffins with butter that came out were delicious. The benny was a little on the small side but I guess that's the downside of ordering crab - it's $$$. However it was very enjoyable, rich. My husband went with the biscuits and gravy, creole style - which he loved. The portion was huge in comparison to mine, he would have moaned at my portion size. Will be back to check out the dinner menu.

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.

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.

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.

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!

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!

Love, love, love! My favorite brunch spot in the DFW! The food is always fresh, the drinks perfectly made and the service impeccable! I've been here for brunch, lunch and dinner. You will not be disappointed!

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!

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

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.

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.

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.

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!

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!

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.

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.

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.
