Over
Central Reservation in State College is a fine dining spot that offers gourmet cuisine at a reasonable price. The establishment has a cozy and modern atmosphere with an innovative and whimsical cocktail menu. The interior design features floor-to-ceiling pillars finished with expensive tiles and pictures of famous people on the back of every chair. The menu offers limited options of "handhelds" and entrees such as the trout over risotto, shrimp and grits, and the Waygu burger. The crab cake sandwich and the grouper Ruben are both must-try dishes. The cocktail menu is diverse, and the summer sangria and margarita are both superb. For those who prefer non-alcoholic drinks, the establishment offers homemade hummus with different toppings and soft drinks. The place is located in the heart of downtown State College, and it has outdoor seating during warm months. The staff is friendly and fast, and the service is top-notch. Central Reservation is a great get-away from the college bar scene and a perfect spot for a light dinner or a nightcap.

One of my favorite places in state college. The food and drinks are always great. My regular recommendations are: fried oysters, pork belly, fries, frog legs, live burger, duck ragu. Today I had the pan seared walli and wasabi potatoes and oyster and spinach velaute gravy. The meal was perfection!!!! Obviously I’m coming back. Price per person $30–50 Food: 5 Service: 5 Atmosphere: 5 Recommended dishes Duck Ragu

I thought this place is going to be very similar to Local Whiskey since it’s attached, but I feel as though it’s pretty different. It’s more of a quiet, relaxed vibe. The atmosphere, food and drinks were all amazing. On the back of every chair there is a picture of a famous person, which is pretty cool. I got the trout over risotto which was the special and it was phenomenal. I also think the prices are very reasonable for the high quality food. Definitely will be back.
Plenty of people – probably the place is loved by everyone. I had a Caesar salad, it was not too good: only half a piece of a tomato and maybe one egg or less – mostly lettuce under not the best sauce. Gnocchi portion is quite small. Other than that, everything was great, the interior was beautiful, and the barmen was making pretty cocktails in front of our eyes. Food: 3 Service: 4 Atmosphere: 5

Very dumb management decisions. A few friends and I had some take-home boxes from another restaurant and were told that “outside food was not permitted” so we would have to leave it somewhere. That stupid policy lost a good $200 in bar tab. Also, the places next door are all owned by the same clown, so don’t try to grab drinks if you have the audacity to not eat all your food somewhere else. Food: 3 Service: 1 Atmosphere: 1

It was our first time here and we loved it. We had the fried oysters as an appetizer and then the shrimp and grits and the crab cake sandwich with a side salad. The cocktails were well made and had good balance. We will definitely be back.

My wife and I held our rehearsal dinner at Central Reservation and had a terrific experience. There was a base cost to hold our event that was well worth it because we got to rent out the whole restaurant. It was amazing to have that privacy and full control over our event. We worked with the chef to have a customized and personalized menu with a bunch of our favorite dishes. The food was absolutely spectacular. They went above and beyond without asking to even make special drink menus with cocktails named after songs from our playlist for the evening! Our only complaint was that the communication was lackluster at the beginning of the planning process. We strongly feel, however, that Central Reservation more than made up for it with a truly stunning and incredible event for one of the most special nights of our lives. Well deserving of 5/5 stars.
