We had our wedding at the Commentary on 5/31/25 and we could not be more thrilled with our experience. Olivia Martel and Chef Fran were PHENOMENAL to work with. Anything we wanted, we got. We wanted a low key, chill wedding, and decided on stations and the pasta bar with a plethora of appetizers and the execution was a 10/10. We loved having the whole bar and restaurant to ourselves in Ballston and welcoming guests from across the country and being in the Commentary’s/Westin’s...read full review

The Commentary offers an amazing dining experience with delicious food and great service. It features popular pizza and cocktail-making classes that provide an unforgettable experience for couples or gatherings with friends. The pizza making class was wonderful, with Chef Yndia teaching participants to create a delicious build-your-own pizza. The fun atmosphere, along with the humor of the instructors, made the learning process enjoyable. The pizzas and cocktails were absolutely delicious, and the crispy Truffle Fries were bursting with flavor. The patio seating was lovely, with a pleasant server who recommended tasty dishes like shishito peppers and ceviche Del Mar. The poblano burger was the best ever, juicy and flavorful. The trendy decor and stylish ambiance enhanced the experience further. The breakfast buffet was fresh and delicious, offering a great variety at a good price. With a la carte options and friendly service, this restaurant is a must-visit for a delightful dining experience. The instructors were personable and fun, and the crab dip was exceptional, even with gluten-free and cauliflower pizza options available. Customers have praised the attentive service and complimentary drinks offered during delays.
