1925

Ella Brennan (November 27, 1925 – May 31, 2018) was an American restaurateur and part of a family of restaurateurs specializing in haute Louisiana Creole cuisine in New Orleans, Louisiana.

Brennan was born in New Orleans, Louisiana on November 27, 1925.

1943

Ella grew up in New Orleans and graduated from high school in 1943.

Her brother Owen owned the Old Absinthe House on Bourbon Street, and Ella Brennan worked there as a teenager.

He also opened the Vieux Carré Restaurant on Bourbon Street.

Plans to move the restaurant to Royal Street were interrupted when Owen suddenly died and banks pulled out of the venture.

1956

Acquiring her own backing, Ella did open the new restaurant in 1956, the first Brennan's Restaurant.

This tactic was very successful and Ella worked behind the scenes, as well as out front, to ensure the quality of the dishes.

A family dispute dislodged her from the restaurant completely, and she countered by taking over a restaurant of her own with her siblings Adelaide Brennan, Dottie Brennan, John Brennan and Dick Brennan.

Commander's Palace became one of the culinary destinations of the South, if not the entire nation.

2017

2018

She died on May 31, 2018, at the age of 92.

Her daughter Ti Adelaide Martin is co-proprietor of Commander's Palace and SoBou restaurants, and her son Alex Brennan-Martin is proprietor of Brennan's of Houston.

2020

Miss Ella (as she became known) went on to develop the careers of many chefs including James Beard Foundation Award winners Jamie Shannon and Tory McPhail, who was the chef at Commander's Palace until the end of 2020 when he handed over the reins of the kitchen to Meg Bickford.
