A stalwart in the New Orleans dining scene, Commander’s Palace is an elegant, upscale restaurant that serves creole food at its best. Famous for its turtle soup (yes, real alligator turtle) and creole bread pudding soufflé (trust me, it tastes as good as it sounds) Commander’s Palace is the restaurant that put Southern food on the map.
