43 Best Vegetarian Restaurants in State College

“The food here is delicious, the staff is incredibly kind, and the atmosphere makes you feel right at home. Highly recommend! 🌟“

“The place to go before the football game! Great Saturday morning eats. Sooo good!! Our server Jasmine was amazing. Her hospitality made us feel at home. She was very knowledgeable about the menu as well. Shout out to her!! We had the pecan pancakes, the waffle and regular pancakes. All top notch!! 10 out 10. The only downside is the line and wait to get in. Waited for 45 mins but it was worth it. Check them out. Highly recommended“

“We came for dinner with a group of 16 while in town for a swim meet. Some restaurants struggle with large groups but not this place! Our waitress was absolutely fantastic at making sure everyone had what they needed. The atmosphere was perfect for a group. The main takeaway from the entire group was that the FOOD WAS INCREDIBLE! Two of the chefs, Alec and Quinn, came out to the table to make sure everything was ok and even answered questions about some of the dishes. The adults were loving the crafted cocktails and the kids loved the desserts! If you’re looking for a farm to table style restaurant that provides great service and pays attention to all the details-this is it!“

“Their food is delicious and there's no question about it. We ordered a Mutton Biryani and Lamb Kabob Bowl. However, there was so much rice in both and less meat, so we found the meat was not sufficient to eat the rice. If Cafe Alina wants improve its services, think about our comments and take some remedial measures. Thanks!“

“Good fast service and great food“

“Fresh delicious food. The pizza crust is perfect.“

“The shawarma was not that great because the garlic was not fried well and why is the shawarma spherical in shape? Too many pickles and minced chicken! No smoky flavour in the chicken.

Another day, I tried the Navratan korma and it was delicious and the mutton curry was decent but didn't seem that fresh. Although, the indian dishes were definitely better.

About the service, they charged me someone else’s bill and they didn’t even realize it until I came back and asked for an explanation. Please pay attention to your customers.

The turkish coffee was awesome. Overall, this is a great restaurant to try with some room for improvement.“

“I used to work here, so I'm a bit biased, but I feel that it's the best food that you can get in the State College area. Well worth the wait even when the line stretches long for days like the Arts Fest! Breakfast and lunch options are both fantastic and filling.“

“I'm a regular lunchtime visitor, and every meal here is a delight. The Chicken Over Rice is consistently flavorful, with perfectly grilled chicken and just the right blend of sauces. Plus, the service is exceptional in morning time—the server is always friendly and polite. Highly recommend!“

“Went to Perkins for lunch today. Morgan R 188 was our server. She is positive, friendly and a great waitress. We love Perkins.“

“OMG the food is incredible! I had the arepa pabellón with chicken stew and it's hands down one of the best things I've ever eaten. I've only had arepas in Colombia and have never tried Venezuelan arepas; so glad I was able to try them here. The service was super quick and friendly too. I can't wait to come back 🥰“

“In town for work & luckily, walked down the right street & had the Kraken Burrito …. OMG, so freaking good!!! I would try EVERY burrito on the menu!!!!“

“Great food huge portions and great value. I can't wait to come back to try some of the other menu items they really have something for everyone.“

“Hidden Gem indeed! Delicious Authentic Korean food. Their Korean chicken is the best I've ever had. Great staff and clean restaurant. Check this place out!“

“Stopped in last Sunday, and the food was great. We had an awesome server Kimberly. She was very good at her job. Very nice meal. Would go back for sure.“

“Outstanding pizza. The best in town.“

“Colorado prime and sweetvpotato fries was amazing. Christy, our waitress was the ,best. Definitely be back to try dinnet“

“My husband and I love good food, but Indian cuisine is not one that we are experienced in. Decided the lunch buffet was perfect not only for the cost, but the wide array of curry options to try. We absolutely loved them all. They had a mild to medium spiciness (enough to warm you up but not make you cry or sweat), the flavors were bold and well put together. I had a number of questions that were happily answered by staff. All in all, great experience and will definitely return again.“

“Love the bagels and the service. I’m always on the quest for the perfect bacon, egg and cheese on a bagel. So far nothing beats Bagel Docks in NC, but this place is my close 2nd!“

“Always worth a trip when in State College. Staff are accommodating and friendly. Hard workers and show it.“

“I would still recommend them. However, my sister and I ordered pizzas today. I LOVE truffle oil. I ordered a Kennett Square pizza and they forgot my truffle oil…..made my pizza less than appealing. It did not taste good without the truffle oil!!!! Hopefully if I return they will remember the BEST part of my pizza……truffle oil!!!!!“

“Wonderful food and excellent wait staff!!“

“Welcoming atmosphere, outstanding service by Jeremy from our reservation to being our waiter. The food was the best meals we (all 5 of us) have had in a long time!!! We all are ready to plan our return visit!! Highly recommend this place!!“

“Place is amazing. I’m sort of a bagel snob being from Queens and this place is incredible. They don’t skimp on the bacon in their bacon egg and cheese sandwiches, and the prices are very reasonable. Has become a sort of weekend tradition in my house...⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️“

“I visited this restaurant after traveling from Michigan. I took a seat at the bar and I was greeted by the bartended immediately. She was very friendly and had a nice personality. Definitely a good choice for a bartender! The restaurant was nice and clean. I ordered a beer and a steak. Overall the meal was very good. Steak was cooked just right, fries were tasty and the broccoli was good too.
However, while the steak was very good, it had a tendon running through it that I couldn’t even cut with a steak knife. I just had to eat around it. Kind of a bummer.“

“Again we had delicious food here. We love Thai food & go to Cozy Thai Bistro when in State College. Very large portions & dessert to go was a delight later. Our server was very attentive. The entire experience 5/5.“

“The tacos were amazing. Portions were generous and everything tasted authentic.“

“excellent food, authentic Mexican. excellent atmosphere.“

“Always satisfied with the authentic food served by Little Szechuan and have been enjoying the dishes since 2017👍🏼“

“Had a great lunch today. Ribs were delicious along with the sides. Our waitress Jese was terrific! Answered questions about food, made recommendations, and was pleasant. Sorry I don’t live in the area because I’d return!“

“Eat here a lot. Food is excellent and all the beers are amazing also.Highly recommended.“

“Had lunch there today as part of our office's quest to find the best pizza in State College. I was impressed with their new lunch menu that let's you pick from 3 crusts and any toppings by the slice at a reasonable price. The flakey crust was unconventional but very tasty. I went to the Hi-Way downtown in college but have largely forgotten it but was pleasantly surprised today and will go back for lunch much more often. Will they win our office vote for the best pizza? Not sure but I suspect they are in the running.“

“Best. Sushi burrito. Ever!“

“King room very clean quick check in. Reasonably priced.“

“Delicious food, always made fast and hot. Large portions perfect for sharing. My favorite is Singapore Mei Fun and Honey Chicken.“

“every thing was quite tasty. so many options. delightful lunch“

“The dumplings were absolutely delicious — delicate, thin dough with a flavorful filling. I’ll definitely be coming back! I also love K-pop music, and they were playing it while I was there, which made the atmosphere feel clean, lively, and welcoming.“

“This was our first trip in and my daughter and I loved it! The staff were all friendly and helpful. The chicken quesadillas were delicious and so was the queso! We were pleasantly surprised at how good everything was! I wish we had one in the Hollidaysburg/Altoona area!“

“We had the pleasure of dining at Gigi’s for dinner recently. The menu is very creative containing dishes we haven’t experienced previously. Quite an array of different cocktails that were creative as well. The food was excellent, but I’d say the drinks were a bit on the small size with the one large ice cube helping to make it look like a more generous pour. The different Old Fashioned drinks ranged from $14-$20, which I felt excessive. I’d call the atmosphere “spirited “ as it certainly was not quite fine dining. I would go back without hesitation.“

“Always love the food. Service is always great..“

“1st time there for dinner. Was negatively impressed by the physical space... which is huge.
Was expecting a more intimate, warm, cozy ambience.
It was cold (best guess: 68°).
It's a huge space, (seating for maybe 60 to 80 people.) Although it was a Friday evening, there seemed to be no more than about 10 to 15 people dining in. While noticing the number of customers who came for take-out, it's clear that the majority of the resturant's business is provided by take-out and perhaps delivery.

The wait staff were very accommodating and helpful.

And the food and the meal was absolutely excellent.“
