“Dining experience was good, started off with ? wine, although the waitress wasn't exactly sure on most things but she was 18-20 yrs old since so I give her credit for not knowing...had calamari with some strange creamy sauce, not sure about the sauce but calamari was good, had pork chop with mashed potatoes, green beans with a butternut squash sauce (maybe) at the bottom, whatever it was, hit the spot!“
“It's a lovely, colonial-style inn near State College, Pa. My husband's Old Fashioned rivaled a Whiskey Sour he'd had at NOLA's Couchon--memorable. My Sauvignon Blanc was very nice. Our calamari and lamb lollipop apps were perfectly cooked and expertly seasoned. Same for the salmon filet and the pork chop. Homemade key lime pie was a lovely ending to a delightful meal. But when I received the credit card chit to sign, there was a discrepancy . The bill was thirty cents less than what appeared on the credit card chit. There was also a credit card service charge of $4.95. When asked, our waitress said she didn't understand it either and the best she could do was say it had something to do with taxes. So, as far as we can figure out, their overly cautious accountant advised Duffy's to collect a six percent sales tax on that $4.95 credit card surcharge just in case. I don't usually mind paying the cc surcharge, but I really did mind that thirty cents that wasn't itemized anywhere. It's a nice restaurant, but they need a new accountant.“
“State College does not have a ton of fine dining options. The Allen Street Grill vaulted to the top of my list. Amazing food, well curated wine list, not a fault to be found. If you are planning a celebration, this is a fantastic option. We will be back“
“We ordered Bonfire Old Fashioned BBQ for a first birthday party with our family for approximately 15 people and everything turned out AMAZING!! We had brisket, fried chicken, mac & cheese, garlic mashed potatoes and cornbread!! Glenn and Andrea provided us with all of the fixings for a brisket or chicken sandwich including their delicious homemade sauces!! We would highly recommend them for any catering needs!! The food and service is top notch!!“
“Absolutely fantastic. The menu constantly changes, and they somehow improve upon the previous version every single time.Love the atmosphere and people!Dietary restrictions: Almost everything was gluten-free.Parking: Can’t wait for the new parking lot, bc the current one is a bit small.“
“Lovely dinner! We did the pre-paid fixed 4 course menu. Great food, staff was wonderful. Owner came by and was able to answer my husband's questions about how many kilowatts output their solar panels produce and all about the structure, which is beautiful as well as LEED certified.“
“Stopped in for Sunday brunch. Our first time here and wanted to check it out based from word of mouth. Seated quickly and server took our drink orders. I had a Bloody Maria after inquiring what the difference was between that and a Mary (tequila instead of vodka). Quite good actually. Probably a new preference.My food order was something called a Capricious Goat. Egg omelette with goat cheese, cherry tomatoes, and arugula. Served with home fries. It was a plateful. Nice mix of flavors. And the goat cheese was local.Hubby got the pretzel bread which came with beer cheese and apple slices. The bread was very interesting and reminded me of dense cornbread. The cheese was also quite different from what we were used to. To me it had an almost pimento spread type vibe. Cold with just a touch of heat.Hubby's other small plate was the beef empanada. Two generous sized pieces with a roja sauce for dipping. Golden brown with a very well seasoned filling.I spied their blackboard on the wall with posted drinks and desserts and my eyes lit up when I saw banoffee pie listed. Since this is something I've always been curious about, we decided to share a slice. The presentation as it was carried to our table was impressive! There it sat on it's own little pedestal. The pie itself was very eye appealing. First bite you could tell it was ooey gooey good with all that caramel. The sliced bananas were just right and that crust was amazing too. Very rich dessert and I'm glad we tried it.Service was outstanding. Now I know why this is a popular place. Looking forward to returning.“
“Excellent atmosphere, good appetizers (the chili lime french fries were quite spicy); however, it does not take much for me to reach my spice Limit. The Barrell Burger was awesome. First ever ribeye blend burger I had, and the bacon was top of the line and nice n crispy on the edges. My boss had the Delmonico Steak and loved it.“
“Excellent restaurant. Our party of four was seeated immediately at noon on a Saturday. The server was very friendly and helpful. But the star was the food, which was all amazing. The cigar rolls were a delicious appetizer, would highly recommend. And all our main courses were spectacular.“
“Just had the best experience at the State College Cracker Barrel. Eric was our waiter. He was friendly, courteous and saw to our every need. When our meal took longer than he anticipated he checked on us to see if we needed anything. When we finished he took the time to make a personal connection. We asked for a container for our biscuits. I spent a short time going through “the store”. On our way to the car, I realized I had forgotten the container. After a short discussion, my husband and I decided not to go back. As I was closing my car door, I looked up and Eric was jogging toward us biscuits in hand. Thank you Eric“
“This particular TRH is a solid 4 across the board.Other than putting the outback just down the hill out of business, you can expect this place to meet expectations regularly and in a college town that goes far, especially when this location is so often busy.I usually get a steak, medium rare, which 90% of the time arrives at such. The other 10% are probably a fair split between being raw or being well done. They've honestly been fast about getting a new one to the table, presented by a manager, which has always been appreciated.Very easy choice to remain a strong customer with their care and quality of food and service.“
“This place is amazing. Let me start off by saying that, and preface further by saying I'm here nearly daily.The people that run this place, Eric, Jeff and Sheila, are some of the most genuine individuals you will find in Bellefonte. They have come through for people time and time again and would give you the shirts off of their backs without even knowing you.There have been times I was broke and came in and they were more than happy to help me, no questions asked. We've bonded over our shared situations and they've been grateful to have me, even when I'm not able to do my part as a customer right then, or if I can't tip fully.This place is the place to go for food done right, and a homely atmosphere with individuals that couldn't be happier to see you.“
“Great little diner off of the 322 route. Well worth the detour. The food was cooked to perfection and had a great taste. The service was very good and fast. Both the hamburger and chicken were not over cooked and very moist. Not the cheapest diner in the country but the food made it worth it. Not over priced either.“
“The food here was so good we went in on a Thursday morning and the servers all seemed annoyed we were even there though. Our girl didn't really come check on us and there was a 15 minute gap between us receiving our actual plates. But the food tasted good.“
“An exceptionally wonderful and memorable experience at Grace Restaurant at Carnegie. We celebrated our wedding anniversary with a special, romantic evening of wining and dining and could not have been happier. Friendly, professional, attentive staff; beautiful decor with lovely lighting including multiple fireplaces to enhance the already lovely ambiance. Expect higher end pricing for exquisite beverages and cuisine. Huge wine selection. We ordered a bottle of Bread and Butter, Cali white at a reasonable price and it was a delicious accompaniment to our meal. (Cauliflower steak was a tad spicy for my liking but that was my only complaint) Kudos to the owners, bartenders, kitchen and pastry chefs! Such beautiful presentations and delicacies made for a lovely evening! Highly recommend from a foodie traveler.“
“the atmosphere is absolutely wonderful. I came during college GameDay Saturday September 9th. had a wonderful shrimp and grits the grits were so creamy you couldn't even tell they regrets it was the best I've had and I've tasted a lot of different shrimp and grits. Victoria the bartender makes excellent drinks if she's working try to sit at the service plaza bar or the counter right in front of her. she makes amazing bloody Marys and was doing an excellent job at making drinks that the other servers wanted she was just in and out quick quick.“
“Perkins is out go to restaurant. Great food Good prices Employees are great. Feels like home. Micah was our server tonight. He is friendly, pleasant, and does a great job. He is always nice Tonight we came in th door and he hurried to prepare and clean of tables to get everyone seated. Micah is awesome“
“I had the New England Lobster roll. It was so delicious! My 2 sisters had the Turkey Apple Cheddar sandwich. They both loved it! Staff was very attentive. Atmosphere is great. I would recommend this restaurant to anyone. I definitely will go back.“
“We tried Otto's for the first time and would definitely return. The beers were good, I especially liked the apricot wheat. We ordered the slider baskets which were tasty and the fries were nice and crisp; and a special--mandarin orange chicken on a bed of jasmine rice which I thought was flavorful (the rice was crunchy in some bites) but the chicken was very tender and moist so it made up for the crunchy bites of rice. The brownie sundae was large but average. Our server, Leslie, was nice and helpful! We enjoyed the atmosphere and will return next time we are in town. I definitely would recommend giving Otto's a try if you have not!“
“We stopped by the Legends Pub for an early dinner yesterday, (Monday): I had the "Happy Valley Charcuterie Platter," [i.e., which was amazingly-tasty with its array of different types of sliced cheese & sausage; marinated mushrooms; whole-seed mustard; fruit relishes/jams/jellies; toasted bread rounds, etc.!] ........................ and my husband had a Reuben Sandwich with Fries, [i.e., which he said was top-shelf "wonderful"!]!!Although the food is maybe a bit expensive ~(i.e., for this area)~ the portions were so generously LARGE that we both asked for take-home boxes, which our fantastic server Eric ............ [who, without fail through the years, has always been very attentive & accommodating every single time he's been our server!] ............ promptly brought out!! Today, we subsequently enjoyed our delicious "Pub leftovers"; so, all-in-all, we do think the Legends Pub is definitely a ~**Good V.a.l.u.e.**~, dollar-wise, you know!!Vegetarian options: Caesar Salad; Greek Salad; Spinach Salad."Grilled Vegetable Bruschetta": with Seasonal Diced Vegetables, Garlic Crostinis."Vegetable Panini": with Grilled Eggplant, Zucchini, Squash, Roasted Red Peppers,Provolone, Hummus, Olive Tapenade, Rosemary Ciabatta."Impossible Burger": with Caramelized Onions, Cheddar, Garlic Aioli,Pretzel Roll.“
“Everything I've ever had here is delicious. I've been to Sunset West a couple of times and they never disappoint. It IS cash only but it's totally worth it. The people that work there are super accommodating and friendly. Give it a try!Parking: You'll always find a parking spot. They're everywhere.“

“Highly recommend Prospectors! They were very attentive when we placed our order and helped us make some decisions when we were unsure of flavors and serving sizes. They helped us feed our hungry personal crowd of about 40 during the busy Penn State graduation weekend with ease. They were super pleasant and helpful when we picked up the food. And, above all, absolutely everybody raved about all of the food! Actually, two weeks later, people are still talking about the food! The brisket, pulled chicken, salads, Mac n cheese, sauces … everything was delicious and well-priced. Do yourself a favor and let the cooking up to them!“
“Burger—-WOW, AMAZING!!! Decor—-so FUN!!! MUSIC—-sometimes irritating for my ear tunes into all music everywhere, servers—-GREAT and Personable!! Home-made chips could hardly be tasted for the overdone stowing in spices, especially the SALT. Thought I would try them since I had not had any in two years, but they were just as bad as then.“
“Amazing atmosphere & food! The food is exquisitely prepared & served. The waiters & waitresses are attentive & friendly. There's also a nice drink menu whether it a soda, wine, draft beer or mixed drink. You won't be disappointed!“
“Stopped in to have brunch after skiing. We had the avocado toast, bear burrito and eggs Benedict. They were all amazing! My personal favorite was the avocado toast, but loved them all. Extremely busy, race weekend and the service was still great!“
