    Tasty K is an unassuming Korean chicken shop on Calder way near Heister street in downtown State College. Only the 2nd time I have gone to this restaurant and that is only because I found out about it last week. The food is delicious, exceptionally well marinated boneless chicken in a light well seasoned batter. I got that had a chili dipping sauce, and side of waffle fries and Korean cream soda that was a pretty special addition to my order. The place has a picture inside that stated "small menu, BIG FLAVOR" and that sums it up. I was very impressed with the portions and the friendly service. Disclaimer I have not tried the other "fried chicken" places down town and after trying Tasty K I don't need to .

    Tasty K never fails to brighten my day. The staff are positive and the food is delicious. The chicken is pull apart soft and juicy. The sauce is delicious. Highly recommend.

    Best Korean fried chicken in state college!! It's so juicy! The service was great! I ordered online and it was easy to navigate. The environment was very welcoming and clean. Would definitely be ordering from here often.

    Honestly one of my must go to restaurants when I visit State College…read more 1) Service is amazing. The guy is so friendly, will help you with your order/figure out what's best for you, and is so speedy it's actually insane. 2) The portions are huge. Where in 2021 can you feed two people (and get cokes) for less then ten bucks and still have leftovers??? It's amazing. Side note: I did try to do two orders and came nowhere close to finishing it hahah so come with a friend or be prepared to have leftovers. 3) THE FOOD. It's amazing. I always get the lamb over rice with the white and red sauce (red is spicy cause I like a little kick). It's phenomenal the rice is cooked to perfection, the lettuce they have is always crisp, and the lamb is always tender and tastes phenomenal. 10/10 you have to go.

    Use caution before ordering from this Yelp listing. I placed an online order for delivery from…read moreShaker's Grill because Yelp showed the business as open and accepting orders. My payment was processed, but the food was never delivered. After I couldn't reach anyone who could resolve the problem, I took an Uber from my hotel to the address shown on Yelp. At that location, I found a food truck operating as Halal Sher Gyro. I spoke directly with the man running the truck, who uses the same address and telephone number listed for Shaker's Grill. He told me that he bought Shaker's Grill approximately 11 years ago and that Shaker's Grill no longer exists as a separate business. Despite this, Yelp is still advertising Shaker's Grill as open and allowing customers to place and pay for online orders. In addition to paying for food that was never delivered, I had to pay for an Uber to investigate the situation and am now having to contact multiple parties to recover my money. I'm posting this to caution others: do not order through the Shaker's Grill Yelp listing unless you first confirm directly that the order will actually be prepared and delivered. I had to post a one star so that this could be posted. Just disregard the star for this Shakers Grill because the Shakers Grill does not exist. It is now operated at that address as a food truck under a different name so once again, if you order online through Yelp at Shakers Grill, your food will not show up because there is no shakers's grill at the posted address.

    5/5 Food: Great for fresh options. I had the falafel, chicken shawarma, and spicy steak bowls and…read moreliked each one. The portion sizes are large, enough for lunch and dinner. The spicy foods were actually spicy, and the falafel was fresh and not dry. Definitely my quick go-to salad/ fresh bowl place for now. It is cold and cafeteria-style. Great option for state college. 4/5 Ambiance: modern/ industrial fast casual looking interior- tile-like wall is pretty, as are the jars of pickled vegetables and the cage lattices separating the dining high tables. Overall a clean feel and not too sterile feeling, though it may be on the border of being a bit too-bare-bones. This is the kind of place I could see bringing someone from out of town to. Music was really loud, as seems to be the style at these kinds of places, which could make quality conversations hard to do. 4/5 Service: Service was good. I ordered three bowls and they were served promptly. It didn't seem like anything special to make the dish, the server was literally looking at the recipe on the receipt and putting scoops of each into the bowl, which makes sense, especially for custom made bowls. This destroyed all imaginations of a chef custom making a dish to be tailored to the seasons, etc but the food was still tasty. (0/5 Bike parking: after looking I couldn't find a place to secure my bike) 5 : I will actively tell other people to go here 4 : I am happy to go back. 3 : I will go back if a friend suggests it. 2 : I will go back if someone is really insistent. 1 : I will not go back.

    Was the best late night food in state college. Now that they changed their hours I will never go…read morethere again.
