Our group of four dined at Commander's Palace for my husband's birthday. The service was impecable with several people tending to our every need. Every course was well presented and delicious.

Ate here on a Friday night at 6:30 pm. The food itself was very good. However, the restaurant was very loud, hectic, and rushed. Not a relaxing dinner. Go elsewhere. The locals told us that Commander's Palace is decades past its prime.

We visited Commander's Palace on a recent trip to New Orleans to celebrate my husband's 40th birthday. We were welcomed by each staff member as we came in and were seated, as requested in our reservation, in the garden room. The service was wonderful. Little details such as choice of napkin color, replacing of the water glasses halfway through, serving each table's entrees in unison and attention to specific requests really made this restaurant stand out in terms of service.

My husband is more of a "meat and potatoes" kind of guy and he was a little apprehensive of the menu offerings. However, the waiter and kitchen worked with him on the filet option and presented him with a meal he enjoyed very much. I enjoyed the trio of soup appetizer and the pecan encrusted gulf fish was delicious. The dessert was good, but not my favorite part of the meal. I had the bread pudding souffle and my husband had the chocolate and vidalia onion ice cream (which was surprisingly very good). I would definitely recommend this restaurant as must at least once in your life!

The food is very unique and good quality, service is good as well. Not cheap, but great for special occasions.

I recently went for brunch on a Saturday and I found it to be really lovely, We were seated upstairs, in a small room (there were only three other tables) and while the main dining room was clearly bustling, ours was serene and perfect! The service was impeccable and the food delicious. We all oohed and ahhed over every course, sharing and indulging. It was certainly a good value - from the garlic bread starter to the generous portions at each course I found the entire meal to be just what my travel weary soul needed. Then to have a live three-piece jazz combo traipsing through our brunch doing old standards and improvising Happy Birthday for the three folks in our room who were all celebrating - that was the icing on the cake! When in New Orleans I think of this as a must stop - take time to linger over brunch, arrive early, leave late and wander through the neighborhood to marvel at the architecture of the Garden District homes. You won't be disappointed.
