    We adore this restaurant. It might be the best in Texas. In every category Restaurant 506 is outstanding. My favorite is the crab cakes. The wine list is limited, in a good way; many I have tried are outstanding and go beautifully with our meal. It is worth going out of your way. Spend a peaceful night at the Sanford Inn. And dine with them. Then have brunch the next day.

    A very nice special occasion place. The duck breast was a bit on the overcooked side, and the veal Milanese it was not served in a classic fashion, pleasant surprise. Little tough on the edges. Service is outstanding. Palate cleansers and amusés are nice touches. Small dining area means reservations are an absolute necessity.

    Great restaurant located on the ground floor of a B&B and across the street from their Spa. Enjoyed a nice business lunch. Service and food was excellent. Convenient to downtown Arlington and easy access from Route 30 so was a great place to meeting half way between Fort Worth and Dallas for a business lunch

    My husband and I went for the brunch and it did not disappoint. The food was delicious and the ambiance was great. I strongly recommend the lemon blueberry pancakes, and my husband raved about the bread pudding. Our server, Najeeb was incredible. His friendly disposition and warm smile was the icing on the cake. We will definitely be back!

    Went to dine with two friends. They ordered the lamb and chicken. They were happy with their meals. I ordered the pork chop. Basically, it was tough and tasteless. The Sanford House has done better in the past. But for the time, I will not be returning.

    The outside of the restaurant is very appealing, first thing I noticed when we walked into the foyer was the temperature of the restaurant; it felt like 80 degrees; too hot and not comfortable. The waitress was sweet and professional; we never had to ask for a refill and she was very attentive to us. For that she received a very generous tip (over $150. The food was definitely not worth the value you pay for it: the first thing we got was a appetizer which was a slice of cucumber with a piece of pork chop on top with balsamic; was not very appetizing. When we ordered our food we were asked which side we wanted with it; we ordered two surf and turf, a shrimp and scallop linguine, and a bone in pork chop, our sides were: a house salad, two Caesar salads, and crab cakes. Unbeknownst to me, the sides were not sides, they were appetizers (not included with the meal. All plating was nice, however the steaks were definitely turf, very dry, I had to moisten my one bite with water to swallow it. The pork looked very moist and appealing. Overall, we travel a lot and like to eat at very nice restaurants, we rarely review the restaurants, but this experience will not even make the list to retry. Sorry if you do not like our review, I just feel that after a $400 dollar bill, others should know what they are getting into.

    The food was very good and came out in a reasonable time. The service after we received our meals could have been a bit more attentive. The server did not come around and ask about refills for coffee or our ice tea and it took a while for our finished plates to be cleared. Will definitely try again and hope the service is a bit better next time.

    Service was excellent. We were able to have a romantic relaxing dinner for my husbands birthday. The food was delicious. The carrot/bell pepper soup was fantastic although it could have been served warmer. The duck confit was cooked perfectly and delicious. The bone-in pork chop was also cooked to perfection snd the butternut risotto was a perfect side dish.
