. Overall thought a lot of the dishes were too salty. We tried all 3 soups and thought they were all too salty. The food portions are also pretty small for its price. Got a side of the crab cooked in champagne and do not recommend. Tasted like plain crab. My favorite dish was probably the cauliflower appetizer and pecan crushed fish. The free garlic bread is delicious
Service: >5/5 Logan was our main server and he was so very kind and welcoming! We ordered really weirdly but not once did we feel pressured to order more food and he was very friendly in explaining the dishes.
PSA: people get REALLY dressed up for this restaurant! Also highly recommend making a reservation in advance.

A must for any special celebration 😍 We made a reservation for their Saturday Jazz Brunch and had a wonderful experience. For starters, we both got the wild white shrimp rémoulade which was impeccable. For entrées, my husband got the new roads pecan crusted fish and I got the cochon de lait eggs Benedict. We both agreed the fish is the better choice, especially for folks who want a lighter meal. For desserts, we got the old fashioned banana pudding and southern style pecan pie à la mode. The banana pudding wasn’t too sweet and the pecan pie was the perfect contrast of cold ice cream and warm pie with magical candied pecans. The service was also amazing. Our server looked like Gary Oldman and was so hospitable and attentive. The live jazz trio that moves around from room to room were also incredibly talented. We can’t wait to come back on our next trip to NOLA.

Unbelievably amazing food and excellent service. Gorgeous venue. I will NEVER miss an opportunity to eat at Commander’s Palace whenever I’m in New Orleans. Their reputation proceeds them but it’s FACT. FABULOUS restaraunt!

We had been here once before but this time was even more special because of Raphael and Kendall. They were so charming, welcoming and attentive. We felt like family. Top notch experience from start to finish.

I was excited to visit this place as it was talked up by many people, however, for a fancy restaurant, one of my worst experiences. The worst part was probably the fact that the server upgraded the cocktails to an expensive liquor without asking, and he even admitted that he did not ask and then had to go fix the bill at the end when we caught it. It made me wonder how often they do that to people and people just pay the bill without looking closely. It was rather shocking to be honest. The fish was not overcooked, but it was very bland and on top of a vegetable and cream medley, which to be honest was kind of gross. Definitely nothing special . The glassware was rather mundane for a fancy restaurant. The positive is it’s nice to have several servers for your table… but the fact that one of them tried to swindle us by putting a expensive liquor upgrade that we did not ask for that greatly raised to the bill took away from that. I will definitely not be back.
First of all, this place is HUGE, but it felt like we were in a very intimate setting. Our Captain, Justin and his team - Travis and Corey were phenomenal from start to finish. We chose Commander's Palace to celebrate our anniversary dinner and couldn't be more pleased. From our appetizer to our desserts, everything was perfect. I also love that we had bananas foster prepared tableside along with a history lesson. I look forward to visiting again.
Because I couldn't decide on which soup to order, I decided to get them all! The tasting portions of the gumbo, turtle soup, and soup of the day was perfectly portioned, and a wake up for my taste buds.
Recommended dishes: Bread Pudding Souffle, Commander's Turtle Soup, Crusted Fish

What an absolute gimmick. Trashy, uninteresting, average food. We were actually shocked. Not at all the kind of place you’d expect from NOLA’s top restaurants list. Felt more like a chilis.

Both Joe and David were outstanding. Their attention to detail, historical insights, and warmth were wonderful additions to our first dinner here. We will be back!
