Review of Tellers Steak house

An Amazing Experience. I have been wanting to try...

An Amazing Experience. I have been wanting to try Tellers for quite the longest. I finally decided to take my girlfriend out to dinner. We generally go to upscale restaurants with the occasional average spot once and awhile. We were very impressed with the service, ambiance, and food. From start to finish - we had an extraordinary experience and here is why:

Hostess: Very friendly, organized, and sat us at a perfect table with ample room for the food we ordered.

Wait Staff: Professional, organized, and well communicated. I observed the waiter of ours communicate to certain wait staff individuals - everything was done timely and accurately. Bravo.

Waiter: Friendly from start to finish and read us very well. We like to consider ourselves more reserved and very hard young workers. He spoke to us like that with an occasional joke here or there which brought us to smiles. The waiter explained to us any questions we had, but also recommended which sides to get and what entree. Food and Service are equally important to me, but seals the deal whether ill be back or not. I'll be back.

Food: Appetizers were crab cakes and 3oz stone crab. Crab cakes were delicious and cooked to perfection. 3oz Stone crab was meaty and cracked accordingly. I prefer hot drawn butter next time, which Im sure they would have accommodated. Main dishes were Prime Rib Medium Rare and the Sole. Wow, Prime Rib was a 20oz cooked medium rare as requested with a delicious au jus gravy. Sole was cooked perfectly and gobbled up by the gf. Sides were Scalloped Parmesan Potatoes and Mac and Cheese. Absolutely one of the best mac and cheeses I have ever had and we go out every day for lunch and dinner. Potatoes were tasty as well. Lastly, the Brooklyn Cheesecake was good, not as good as my cheesecake sorry! Had a Red from California - great choice and the gf had a Sauvignon Blanc - great. Wine glasses were real crystal and to me and other wine connoisseurs this is a big deal.

Ambiance: More than enough space. Quiet Dining. We were overdressed which is kind of surprising because I would have thought an expensive steak restaurant would require suit pants, collared shirt, dress shoes, and dresses for the women. I was mistaken. I'm an avid believer that expensive places should require a dress code and I didn't see it.

Valets: Valets were nice and understandable I didn't want to valet my car.

Overall. This is the place to visit. Great food, great service, great ambiance, great experience! Thanks Tellers.
