Tadashi Japanese Restaurant

There are two Tadashi restaurants where one caters more to rice dishes/don (this one), while the other one serves sushi and rolls. We ended up trying both restaurants during our weekend visit to Penn State.

This location has more of a casual setting, and it was really warm inside given the lack of AC and the open kitchen setup. But the food overall was much better than the other location. I wasn’t even hungry, but I took a bite of the strip steak don and couldn’t stop eating.

5 star restaurant. Service is fast and friendly, atmosphere is relaxing and clean.

Misi soup is miso soup, but the miso soup here is outstanding! The seaweed salad is amazing, and the ten don is delicious.

I'll be back.

Yum yum yum...those are the words you will be saying when you eat here. Everything we ordered, I would 100% eat for the rest of my life. I ordered the chicken bao bun, octopus balls, vegetable ramen ( I don't eat pork) and had the creamy mango soda. The food was so fresh and flavorful. The server was very kind and did not feel like they were rushing us out, the place became very busy while we were there. The bao buns were so light and fluffy, it was like eating a cloud. I know there is no shortage of ramen places in state college but I would definitely come back here again and again.

Great and authentic food! Dons and ramen are both good, loved the vibes. We had the spicy miso ramen eel don. Meat was tender soft and well flavored. Solid spot!

Amazing food. Terrific presentation. Waitresses glued to their phones. At one point I got up and retrieved a menu for myself and then had to go to the back to get the waitress’s attention to order other items. She forgot my drink as well. Still, the food was just so good

FYI: This location does not have sushi. However, the food options here were very good. Extremely fast and attentive service, there was absolutely zero waiting around for a server to ask for our order, check, etc.

The place is small, so we arrived early and there was plenty of available seating. The portions are huge...I mean HUGE and everything I tried was delicious. I will be returning here soon.

I love the atmosphere and the food here! The lunch special is a great deal. The sushi is amazing and the restaurant itself is cute and modern. The waitstaff always seem to be in a rush, but they are friendly. I wish they offered more beverages, but I appreciate the water already at the table.
