Hey, I'm a junior looking into Penn State and I happen to be a foodie too. Does anyone know about the most expensive restaurants in State College, PA? I want to check them out during my visit.
Sure thing! State College is filled with a host of enticing dining options. For starters, you might want to try Spats Café and Speakeasy. It offers sophisticated Creole and French fare with a considerate wine list. Its New Orleans-inspired menu and casually elegant setting will give you a fine-dining experience.
The Tavern is another fantastic place to experience local history and cuisine. Known for specializing in Pennsylvania Dutch (German) fare, this is the place to go for a hearty meat and potatoes meal. The setting is also adorned with local historical and sports memorabilia.
Another option is Faccia Luna Pizzeria if you're in the mood for Italian. Their wood-fired pizzas are divine, and they also offer a range of pasta dishes.
Gigi's Southern Table is also worth checking out. They serve refined southern-inspired food with a bar offering more than 120 types of bourbon and whiskey.
Always keep in mind that while these are not the most expensive restaurants in town, they are certainly more upscale than your standard college town fare, and they also have excellent food. Enjoy your visit, and your meals!
