Court of Two Sisters

We%26#39;re visiting for my 40th birthday in June, and I made reservations for the Two Sisters for the Jazz brunch on Sunday, June 7th @ 1pm for a fun, touristy meal. My husband loves a buffet! The reviews on this place are love it or hate it, so I need some advice. What do you guys think of it? Should I keep the reservations because of the buffet, or forget it and just go to Commander%26#39;s Palace for a jazz brunch and order off the menu?

If the quality of the food is important to you, then Commander%26#39;s without question. If you don%26#39;t mind mediocre food in a beautiful courtyard as long as it%26#39;s a buffet, then Court of Two Sisters is for you.

Court of Two Sisters

A lunch experience with great food and great service at Commander%26#39;s vs. average to mediocre but plentiful food....Commander%26#39;s by far.

We have had the buffet at COurt and it was very good-pricey, not as good as Commander%26#39;s in terms of food quality or service, but you will enjoy it. There is a lot of variety, and the bread pudding is still my favorite (even over Commander%26#39;s souffle type).

Definitely Commander%26#39;s Palace! You go for both the food, the service, the ambience and the experience!

The Court of Two Sisters is not very good, and it%26#39;s on the pricey side too! Go to Commander%26#39;s instead!

We were at Court last Friday, and while the setting was beautiful, and the jazz players good, the food was mediocre. But we were in the FQ, hot and hungry and decided to do it rather than go to the garden district. If you really want top notch food, go to Commander%26#39;s. However, if you want average food and LOTS of it, then Court would suit you just fine, especially on a beautiful afternoon.

Also, we ate tons of crawfish and shrimp which is hard to get too wrong. The bread pudding was good too, as was the creamed herring. A lot of avoidables though. Be warned, if you try to taste everything, you will be digesting the food until the next day (as I found out). Hence, why I never like buffets, but its good for an experience.

The food quality at Court is spotty, mainly because it%26#39;s a buffet, and some things have been sitting out for a while. Also it is nowhere near the service and experience of a ';real'; restaurant.

However, its one advantage, if you have never experienced many of the dishes, as a buffet you can sample many different things in small samples, and then (just try) remember what you liked, and later order them at nicer places.

Oh yes,they have a 3 or 4 piece band playing. So does everywhere.

Thanks for your help! Commanders it is, but I might keep the reservations at the Court since with a little luck, I can get my husband to do both. Commanders for my bday and the Court because this man does love him some buffet!

Does anyone know where/how to get discount coupons for Court of Two Sisters? I%26#39;ve read mentions by other travelers of finding them. Thanks!
