The Middle Level
The Main Dining Room
The main restaurant dining room at Happy Valley LIVE is its own space tucked off a short hallway, with blue leather booths, Penn State jerseys and memorabilia covering the walls. It’s a proper sit-down restaurant experience.
You’re still in the venue, and on a busy night you’ll feel the energy, but you’re not in the middle of it. Good for families, couples, or anyone who wants a real meal without sitting at a bar.
Private Dining Room
Tucked off the main floor on its own half-level, the semi-private dining room at Happy Valley LIVE is naturally set apart from both the dining room and the rest of the venue.
Wood-paneled walls, warm sconce lighting, and a secluded atmosphere make it a popular choice for birthday dinners, rehearsal dinners, date nights, and small group gatherings. To reserve the space for your group, call (814) 954-4716.
American Food, Philly Cheesesteaks & Steak Dinners in State College, PA
The American side of the menu covers a lot of ground. Wings, burgers, and cheesesteaks bring the game-day crowd in, but the menu doesn’t stop there. Angus beef burgers, hand-cut steak dinners including an 8oz Filet Mignon and 16oz NY Strip, and a Surf & Turf featuring Maine lobster tail and filet give the menu a range you don’t usually find in one place.
If you’re coming in for a casual lunch or a proper dinner out, the menu works for both. Follow us on Facebook for food & drink specials, live events, & more.
Romano Family Recipes
In our restaurant, the Italian dishes aren’t pulled from a generic menu template, they come from generations of Romano family cooking. The Italian dinner menu includes pasta and meatballs in traditional Romano family gravy, shrimp scampi, lobster ravioli in lemon butter garlic sauce, mussels in garlic butter wine sauce, and a rotating selection of handmade ravioli.
On the seafood side, Maine lobster tail, Maryland-style crab cakes, blackened salmon, and a Surf & Turf round out a menu that goes well beyond what you’d expect from a Penn State sports bar.
