Tellers Steak House offers an exceptional dining experience, blending sophistication with a cozy charm. I had the pleasure of visiting for lunch, and though it was a date for one, the ambiance made it feel nothing short of special. The dimmed lighting set a warm, intimate tone, while the bar exuded a romantic elegance, perfect for quiet contemplation or a rendezvous with a loved one.
The menu showcased the restaurant’s upscale nature, and I couldn’t resist indulging in the oysters, a classic starter. Unfortunately, this was the one small flaw in an otherwise delightful experience. The oysters were not shucked with the care one might expect from a restaurant of this caliber. They appeared gritty, with traces of what looked like mud, which was disappointing given the $55 price for a dozen. While their presentation didn’t quite match the restaurant’s elegant reputation, it was a minor blemish in the grand scheme of things.
The duck fat fries, however, stole the show. Perfectly crisp and rich with flavor, they were a decadent delight I’d return for in a heartbeat. Paired with a glass of buttery Chardonnay, the combination elevated my solo dining experience to something truly memorable.
Overall, Tellers Steak House lived up to its reputation for refined dining, and I left feeling thoroughly impressed. I would, however, love to see the quality of the oysters elevated to match the excellence of the rest of the menu. That said, it was a splendid lunch, and I look forward to returning.

I first got to know "Tellers" when a friend celebrated his wedding there. What an incredible venue to enjoy a celebration with family and friends, and the food selection was outstanding. The fresh seafood during the cocktail hour was especially amazing. I’m definitely planning to come back for a drink at the beautiful bar in the other part of the restaurant.

Our anniversary dinner was memorable due to the excellent food and drinks, but what truly made it stand out was the exceptional service provided by our waiter, Carlos. His recommendations were spot on, and he took the time to explain the intricacies of our cocktails. To cap off the night, he even offered us a champagne toast! We will definitely be back and requesting his superior service.

Alexandra Ardizzone was the coordinator for my engagement party, and I can’t express enough how professional and helpful she was. My family and I can be very indecisive, but Alexandra was incredibly patient with us, maintaining consistent communication up until the event. She was always willing to accommodate any requests, and her support made the entire evening run smoothly and beautifully. I would absolutely host another event here if she were the one overseeing it. The food was praised by all of my guests, and the drinks were not only stunning but also tasted phenomenal. Every detail was meticulously considered, thanks to Alexandra’s expertise in event planning. If there was anything I hadn’t thought of, she took care of it. I am beyond thrilled with how the event turned out. Thank you!

Flawless experience here. We called ahead to reserve a table, and they asked if it was for a special occasion. We told them it was our anniversary. When we got there, not only did they wish us a happy anniversary, they left a sweet note on our table congratulating us and thanking us for spending our anniversary there. Throughout the night the service was great, the food was top notch and the dessert was incredible. They even gave us complimentary drinks for our anniversary which was rather nice of them. Overall, the atmosphere was very warm and inviting, the employees were all very kind and friendly and I felt very satisfied leaving there. I can't recommend this place enough. Definitely THE place to have a fancy dining experience.
