our story

At Teller, every meal is a celebration of taste and moments to remember

We think life is better with great food. Our mission is to make both – food and life – simply better. Teller is more than a restaurant; it’s a home for new and old stories, filled with warmth and experiences.

Within these walls, two iconic storytellers have already served: KOP Bank and Record Store X. The foundation of this hundred-year-old building has had the privilege of narrating tales of time, money, culture, and people. The curved row of windows and the atmosphere that exudes longevity irresistibly draw people in.
