About this location
About Tellers
Tellers resides in a renovated 1927 grand stone bank building from which it gets its name. From its 30-foot ceilings and art deco friezes, comprising what the New York Times says ‘to be one of the most strikingly beautiful dining rooms on the Island,’ to the clubby Gold Bar, Board Room private dining room and walk-in Wine Vault, diners are transported to a time when superior service and quality were the norm. Adds Zagat Survey, ‘The fantastic experience comes in part from its gorgeous setting . . . meatery mavens laud the exceptional steaks and to-die-for seafood as well as the outstanding service.’ The classic chophouse menu with local seafood selections is complemented by a diverse and imaginative international wine list. A regular recipient of Wine Spectator’s Best of Award of Excellence, the list of 1,000 labels is part of an 8,000-bottle wine cellar ‘kept safe’ in the former bank vault. Tellers is the flagship fine dining restaurant of Bohlsen Restaurant Group (www.brgroup.biz) which also owns and operates the chic and casual Verace: True Italian in Islip; neighborhood favorite Long Island’s Beachtree in East Islip; Gold Coast harborfront Prime: An American Kitchen & Bar and Harbor Club at Prime in Huntington; acclaimed by Newsday as #1 on Long Island, the four-star Monsoon: Steak & Sushi in Babylon Village; and the vibrant H2O: Seafood & Sushi in Smithtown.
