Banking references abound at Tellers, beginning with their name. However, you can’t put a price on how much you’ll enjoy a meal at this spectacular chophouse, set in a magnificently restored 1927 bank building complete with 30-foot windows and art deco friezes. The Bohlsen family transformed this imposing architectural landmark into a restaurant where “diners are transported to a time when superior service and quality were the norm.” According to the Zagat survey, dinner at Tellers is “worth every cent.”
The waitstaff provides an unparalleled dining experience while their sommelier is your guide to the Wine Spectator Award of Excellence-winning wine list of 10,000 bottles comprising 1,000 labels. The magnificent collection is housed in four wine cellars, one of which is the old bank vault. Sip a glass with dinner or at their Gold Bar, which includes a handsome lounge for cocktails and bites from the bar menu.
Executive Chef Alan Kwan’s cooking style reflects his appreciation for global cuisine. Inspired by everything from his Asian heritage to a childhood spent among the local California bounty and his French culinary training, his menu relies on seasonal ingredients to create punchy combinations strong on flavor that satisfy without being heavy. Newsday’s Peter Gianotti calls the generously cut Spanish-Asian hybrid of yellowtail ceviche “a hefty rebuke to all those mini-choppings elsewhere” and the meats, like USDA prime 40 ounce bone-in 21-day dry aged ribeye and enormous porterhouse for two, “knockouts.” The menu also features stunning seafood preparations and traditional raw bar selections. Desserts, from Pastry Chef Amy Scanella, like the molten chocolate cake and ice cream sundae for two can only be described as deliciously rich.
