"Was hesitant to try Playa Bowls because the photos on the Door Dash website makes the servings look small for the price. Turns out those pics are deceptive. Not only was my order large and satisfying, it was delicious! To be honest, I've only had the California Poke Bowl, but the ingredients were fresh, visually appealing, and there was no skimping, i.e. there wasn't just a ton of rice with a few veggies thrown on. Am so pleased, Playa Bowls is now my favorite restaurant in State College and I look forward to trying their other bowls."

"We have been loyal customers of this restaurant for the past five years, visiting 3-4 times a year, and always had a great experience. However, on our most recent visit, we were disappointed to find that the menu had changed with the new culinary team, resulting in the loss of some of our favorite dishes. Additionally, the prices had nearly doubled since our last visit two months ago. Although the service was still excellent, we felt that the food quality did not justify the higher prices. The temperature near our table was also uncomfortably warm, and when we inquired, we were informed that they were experiencing HVAC issues. Overall, the overpriced meal, combined with the uncomfortable temperature, has made us reconsider returning to GiGis in the future."

"They provide the best Mexican food in state college. Only demerit they had is their slow service, but this time it became fast! Among my visits more than four times, I cannot guarantee service is overall fast, but I will see next time. One missing star is due to past experiences of slow service. Recommended menu: Aztec fajita and Margarita"

"to be fair, I just tried one slice of her vegan pfirsich cake, but it was delicious and worth the money. I was especially impressed by the feeling of the community that surrounds the space, with many possibilities for people to engage and support really great causes. I will definitely try again to eat more of her."

"Karma is one of two Indian restaurants offering a lunch buffet in town and the prices and food offerings between the two (the other is India Pavilion) are comparable. I've been a regular at India Pavilion for years and decided to give Karma a try, and I really loved the subtle differences between them. Karma seemed to have a better selection of meat dishes, and there was a chili chicken dish that I dream about on a weekly basis now my goodness it was delicious! One of my favorite dishes is saag, and unfortunately Karma's was burnt and dry and it was quite horrifyingly bad. It was so awful that I think it was an honest mistake (who hasn't burnt food many times before) and I am excited to come back and try their non burnt saag. The general ambiance is nothing to write home about and a good bit more casual than nearby India Pavilion. However, no one goes to a lunch buffet for ambiance! We are there to eat until we feel disgusted with ourselves, and then eat some more who cares what the chairs or decorations look like when you are mentally and physically ill from what you just put your body through?"
