    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 .

    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.

    Visiting for the weekend for an admitted students event and we love Korean food so had to give it a…read moretry! Located right in downtown state college and walking distance to south side of campus, meter parking available too. Small, quaint little place with a super nice owner. Food came out quickly for a Friday evening and everything tasted really well. We tried a bunch of things and my soon to be PSU student loved the galbi and can't wait to come back.

    The Koop is an interesting restaurant. We were here during the summer when students were gone so…read morethere wasn't a lot of activity in the place for a weekday lunch. It's a family owned Korean Fried Chicken restaurant with 2 locations in the central PA area. The restaurant in State College is in an older building, on a side street, and it's an interesting internal layout. Parking would be on the street or a nearby parking garage. There was only one person working the counter area and the ordering process was not well thought out. The restaurant is in the basement of the building, the seating area has no natural light and it's decor is dated/lacking. We ordered fried dumplings, boneless fried chicken, rice with sauce and a bulgogi bowl between two of us. The food came out fairly quick and was honestly delicious. The boneless chicken was premade but then reheated as is typical in most asian restaurants. You have to order sauce on the side, at an additional cost, and it was a fairly small serving. These dishes have some heat, which we enjoyed, but be careful. We really liked each dish and the portions were large. As other's noted, this place was expensive. Our bill was over $50 for two of us. That's more than it's worth. If you're looking for asian inspired cuisine nearby try Bistrozine!
