For a middle class individual such as myself, going to fine dining restuarants isn't an every day thing. So when myself and my fiance decide to go out for a nice dinner, we are taking a chance of spending alot of money on something that may not be up to it's high price standards. Commander's Palace not only live up to its standards, it exceeded our expectations.
First of all let's start off with the service. It is top notch. Everyone involved in providing service to you is very friendly and always ready to be of service. You will never have an empty glass and the waiter will be more than happy to give full detailed explanations of any dish you desire.
The food is excellent. I had a shrimp creole type of dish that was rich in flavor and most importantly, rich in shrimp. My fiance had a steak that was cooked to absolute perfection. Ordered medium rare and it came out as such. The steak came with a loaded mash potatoes that was creamy and full of flavor.
Commander's Palace may be a costly fine dining experience, but for the night it didn't matter. It was money well spent as the service and food exceeded our expectations.
