Editorial Review

Step through the grand doors of Tellers and you’re greeted by the stately bones of a bygone bank—think soaring 30-foot windows, vault-turned-wine cellar, and a copper bar that glows under the amber lights. This isn’t your average steakhouse: it’s where old money meets modern taste, with USDA Prime steaks dry-aged to perfection, duck fat fries that make grown adults swoon, and a raspberry cream pie worth plotting your return for. Locals treat Tellers as the go-to spot for anniversaries or power lunches, while out-of-towners seek it out as a pilgrimage for classic American chophouse fare with refined flair. There’s a sense of occasion here—a place where families gather for milestone dinners, business deals are inked over Bordeaux, and the staff remembers your favorite cut. In a town that prizes tradition, Tellers bridges Islip’s past with a cosmopolitan edge, serving as both a community anchor and a culinary ambassador for Long Island.
