- WWilliamvipPhiladelphia County •29 reviews5.0Dined 3 days agoWe started our evening at the 1855 Lounge. It’s a beautiful venue with high level cocktails and scotch. Great way to start! Walked over to Lionne next door and had an amazing dinner. Enjoyed delicious lobster bisque, a traditional NLI flavor. Our entree was beautifully browned scallops, black rice with light raisins for a little sweet, tiny tomatoes and spicy micro greens. We were very impressed with both the great flavors and original presentation. The dessert we chose was a yummy chocolate cake with fresh fruit, sherbet and lemon cream. It was truly a great dinner at a new venue that didn’t disappoint at all!More infoLionne - The Nittany Lion InnPrice: Expensive• American• State College•4.2

After moving to State College two years ago, and visiting every summer for over 20 years, this was our first visit to the Allen Street Grill. It won’t be our last!More infoAllen Street GrillPrice: Expensive• Contemporary American• State College•4.8
