501 East

We belong to the Boca club but that is not the reason we like this spot.
There is a formal restaurant for those that need it.
The bar and the tables in the bar overlooking the golf course are our usual favorite spot.
The food is excellent with local fresh fish daily. And no other local restaurant does the fish so nicely.
Everything is good, the French onion soup, Caesar salad and for me the fish.

Really Excellent! Similar in style to a Houston’s and the creativity of the food is a notch higher. Smoked ribs are amazing. Fantastic staff and atmosphere. Great live music (Steve Ross) on Fridays. Diverse crowd from business people to families with kids. Puts you in a vacation state of mind.

Went here for dinner. Way overpriced in my mind. Our party had… fish tacos which They said were good. NY strip was fine but not anything to write home about. I got the scallops which were way spicy and the salad and sauce were not appetizing. Asked for a different side and the brussel sprouts were recommended. I thought they were undercooked and couldn’t even swallow one. Would not return. The staff was nice and the atmosphere was family friendly.

I love this place. The food is consistently good and the service is nice. The lobster bisque is great!
The atmosphere is nice too.

501 is probably one of our favorite places to eat in Boca… we have never had a bad meal here.
The steaks are great as is the burger. The Brussel sprouts are fabulous and the kale salad is wonderful.
The offer a cookie cooked in a skillet that is AMAZING and I don’t even like cookies!

My fam and I are crazy about this spot — highlights include an amazing happy hour for members MWF (50% off the entire bar + apps), incredible food all around I have never had anything I didn’t love, and a great location right on the golf course with ample indoor and outdoor space. It’s gorgeous.
It’s hard to even decide what I love most to eat here but I’ll make an attempt — you can’t go wrong with any of the salads (but 501 Cobb is my fave), the guac is delicious and you can adjust the heat to your liking + add veggies to dip, and the kung pao calamari is to die for — a MUST.
AS far as entrees, most recent obsession is the naked burger but I substitute a turkey burger which is phenomenal and a lighter choice. Any of their burgers are a good choice though. One of their best entrees is the honey butter fried chicken — it’s boneless breasts and the coating/​sauce it comes with is so decadent and flavorful, it’s probably the best fried chicken I’ve ever had.
Sides — the brussel sprouts have a garlic cream sauce over them that is amazing, any of the fries are great, and the mac & cheese is perfection. Those are all my favorites but honestly everything coming out of this kitchen is worth waiting for, come hungry!

The food was pretty good the ambience on the patio was nice but the service was horrendous. The manager took our drink order but then no one came back. We finally flagged down a girl to ask who our server was and she told us she was or server! She made a very lame excuse about everyone coming at once. I told her it was unacceptable that she did not at least stop and acknowledge us as she passed by. She was extremely slow and the food took a long time to come out. The manager actually brought us our food. We had to ask 3 people for a tea refill which she eventually brought us. We had to ask another waiter for our check which she eventually brought out. Another table she was waiting on expressed frustration about her slow service and finally flagged down a male waiter to get their check. The manager was not very friendly and did not seem to be on top of the service issues. I was really shocked as the service throughout the resort had been otherwise exemplary and the employees had gone out of their way to be friendly and helpful to us.

Amazing food!!! I recommend trying the burger!!! So goood. Service is great. No complaints. I would hundred percent go back anyway of the week for lunch or dinner.

It’s a decent steak house. Ambiance is fine. You are better off at a Mortons though. Ribeye was cooked properly, it was high quality meat but it didn’t inspire me. Mac and cheese was delicious. Service was ok

The place has a very nice entry, the lobby was welcoming and seem almost, like you’re in a different country. The food was really spectacular, the serving was quick, a lot, and delicious. We were debating til either sit out on the patio or inside. Now, depending on the weather, I’d suggest to stay in, regardless the weather.
Now you wonder, why four stars?
First: The shuttle driver dropped us at the wrong stop and directing us the wrong location.
Second: The venue is nice, perhaps they should carefully scan trough their guests, and check their I.D. prior to letting them go on flirt with the male server to get them alcohol beverage. It was my fiancé’s birthday, and I was trying to get him a surprise, but the minors surely ruined that part of the surprise birthday fun.
Overall experience, we had a decent experience. Since we’re just tourist, I’d assume the locals will probably appreciate more of the positive experience, versus negative feedback. But, rock on! ;)

Seated quickly for brunch, great service, have the bacon wrapped tuna with peaches, Kung pao calamari, and their chopped salad!

The first time I dined here, I was blown away by the food and the service. We came for two very special occasions, my moms wedding rehearsal and my dad’s birthday. The first time I came, I ordered the salmon with biscuits. Let me tell you it was one of the best salmon dishes I’ve had. The skin was crunchy and the salmon was perfectly cooked, juicy and flaky. You get two biscuits as a side and the biscuits are out of this world. I didn’t think that anyone could beat Cracker Barrel biscuits but yes they did.
I sampled some of the calamari and I found it to be super spicy and just okay. The complimentary bread is cheesy and fantastic. The second time I came, I wanted to try something different and I realized they had swordfish as their special. So I ordered the swordfish and their cornbread. The swordfish was blackened and just okay. While the cornbread was amazing. It is served in a mini cast iron skillet and had chunks of corn inside and the top is sweet and crunchy.
Overall, I would come back. Especially for the salmon and biscuits.

If Tom (manager) sees this in the next 30 minutes /​look for the #asian in the group of 19… I advised it was good — didn’t want to lose face in front of the large group — everyone was positive but frankly — it didn’t meet expectations as it comes to service. She was nice but you really should have two servers for a larger group — that is split between two tables. We waited for drinks, waited to have plates cleaned… Otherwise quality of food was excellent.

Ambiance was less than anticipated. Service was very good. I had the salmon steak and my fiancé had an assortment of sides. She is a vegetarian and there wasn’t a single choice for her on the menu. The salmon was filled with little bones which made it a chore to eat. Her sides were ok with the exception of the asparagus. Would not recommend dining here.

An absolutely fantastic meal. I started with the tuna tartare, and then had an entrée salad with salmon. I wanted my salmon well done (which restaurants sometime hesitate to do) and they prepared it as requested.
Great service, delicious food, nice atmosphere. Can’t wait to come back here again.

This was a great place with pretty great food and drinks. It has burgers, salads, and more fancier options like steaks. We had the tuna tartare and the filet mignon. The filet mignon was spot on. Delicious, soft and melts in your mouth. The only thing I did not like was that the tuna tartare did not have guacamole but it had chopped cucumber under it. I am NOT a fan of cucumber so I did not enjoy it as much as I would have. But over all it was good.

Looking for a good meal in the Boca area — this place was solid even though it was on the resort. We went back again the next night to spend some time at the bar and get another meal. First night we shared a bunch of appetizers like the calamari and tuna tartar.

Best salmon dish I have ever had!!! I stayed at this awesome resort over the Labor Day weekend. My son (senior dental student at Nova Southeastern University) came for dinner the next night and we had an unbelievable brunch here. I loved Boca Raton Resort and Club and now my favorite restaurant. Staff was amazing too! Manager came over to tell me about the spa and resort activities. The greatest!!! 10 stars!!!

The restaurant had great service. I was very happy with the waitress and manager — very attentive. The food was delicious and we took advantage of the bottomless mimosas on Sunday. The food was very pricey for what you got though. If they cut the prices some this place would be a new favorite!

4 stars for the meal I had here.
I had skirt steak and I thought it was excellent. Good texture and great flavor. Ambiance was really nice. Sangria was eh. But all I really cared about was the steak!
