The Maryland style crab cake entree is so good, delicious! some of the best I've ever had! they come on a bed of jasmine rice and roasted vegetables. The Thai calamari was really good also, but an extremely small portion for the price. My husband had the 20 oz bone-in Delmonico, cooked medium rare with mashed potatoes & roasted vegetables. He lists this in his top 10 steaks (& he eats a lot of steak, everywhere we go!) [[HIGHLIGHT]]The service and ambiance was perfect, a small bar/restaurant with a lot of heart put into it.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] read more

Kelly's Steak and Seafood - Seafood Near Me - Boalsburg, Pennsylvania

With a daughter at Penn State, we're trying to get to all the restaurants in the area, so on move-in weekend, we visited Kelly's. That day we were sent a text asking if we wanted to sit outside. [[HIGHLIGHT]]When we arrived, we were seated on their side, outside patio next to a wooded area which was lovely.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Our server was attentive and offered suggestions when we asked. For appetizers, we ordered their soup of the day which was a hearty 4-onion, a Caesar salad, and the teriyaki tenderloin which was delicious. My husband ordered the seared filet medallions which he said were good but on the smaller side. The same was true for the seafood cioppino which was good with a variety of seafood and three crostini but was also on the smaller side. My daughter ordered the 7 ounce filet. Overall, the food was delicious, the outside patio was relaxing, and we enjoyed our visit. The restaurant also serves local vodka which was enjoyable. read more

Kelly's Steak and Seafood - 10 ounce sirloin , perfectly cooked, with a added on crab cake - Seafood Near Me - Boalsburg, Pennsylvania

Mixed...that sums it up. Having lived in the area about 36 years before moving away, we were very familiar with Kelly's steakhouse. After looking at some local reviews, J decided that our 43rd wedding anniversary dinner would be a destination celebration at Kelly's. We were greeted warmly by an attractive hostess and seated near the kitchen's swinging doors. Our server was pleasantly business like in her demeanor. We had perused the cocktail menu before she arrived. I didn't find anything that interested me, and my wife couldn't decide between the porch punch and the gin and tonic with blueberry liquor. She ordered the punch and asked the server if the bar could make me an old fashioned. "Yes to that! As things turned out, the porch punch was a miss--a tasteless concoction akin to unsweetened ice tea. But my old-fashioned was off the charts. Probably the best one I have ever had. A strong highball with lots of great flavor! We both ordered a salad...a chop, chop, and a blue cheese. While our salads were tasty, they were fairly average. As I recall, mine had garbanzo beans, lettuce, some strips of salami and what I think was turkey lunchmeat. For our entrées, we both ordered the filet mignon. My wife got the 7 oz. and I got the 10. My wife ordered medium well and I ordered med. When we cut into our steaks, it was obvious there. There was some mixup. Mine was well done, and her's was medium. I definitely had to send mine back to the kitchen. After about 10 minutes or so my new steak arrived, but it was more rare than medium. I don't mind don't rare; I'm not picky but the kitchen sure had a tough time delivering on the steaks! The steaks are served with mashed potatoes and a vegetable medley of broccoli, peppers, etc. All in all a good value. We split a tiramisu for dessert. It was delicious. The service was good. Our server was very professional and did her best to keep us satisfied . The ambience is pleasant. Kelly's is probably the best steakhouse in the area, but our anniversary steak dinner was certainly a mixed bag. read more

Delicious, well priced filets. Mashed potatoes, vegetables and filet were amazing. Thai calamari portion size for an appetizer was a bit ridiculous. Good house cabernet. Polite staff. Would come back again and recommend to anyone wanting a good steak. read more

We went here for dinner on a Saturday night. We had the Yellowfin Tuna and another fish dish. Both were excellent. The staff was flawless. My only complaint is that their wine selection was small and weak and did not match the quality of their food. Next time we're in town we will come here again. read more

Great drinks and bartenders when it is slow. Otherwise, rush you off, pressure and not a good experience. Food is great but not worth the wait and lack of professionalism from the bartenders. They make great drinks but need more polish for the high prices. Good luck, do better. read more

Our party of three ordered filet mignon, sea bass, and steak medallions. The first was good; the second, okay, but it was barely warm; the third was hardly warm and it tasted like soap. We returned it. The item was deleted from our bill. Glaringly absent was a tableside check-in from a manager to apologize and to see if anything more could be done. I've never seen a returned-meal scenario where a manager didn't come to the table. I don't know if that person was informed about it. read more

Fantastic dinner. They have probably the 2 best bartenders in State College. Their Martini's are the best. The steaks were cooked perfectly and the service was spot on. read more

Decor/service: the service was quick and friendly but the decor needs a revamp. Older and outdated inside. 2/5 Food: Delmonico and accompaniments- the steak was extremely fatty. Like 75% fat. I expect some fat on a Delmonico but it was badddd. The mashed potatoes were good but the veggies were over cooked. 1/5 Filet medallions- well cooked and decent flavor but nothing over the top. 3/5 Cajun Fettuccine- wasn't very spicy despite the waitress stating it was. Flavor was decent but nothing special 3/5 read more

Dined at Kelly's on a football weekend. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Very busy.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] I had the lobster ravioli and my wife had salmon. We both enjoyed our meals! The waiter was attentive and informative. We highly recommend eating here. read more

Kelly's Steak and Seafood - Sesame seed tuna dish absolutely delicious. What a great chef !! - Seafood Near Me - Boalsburg, Pennsylvania

I had the salmon and was probably the best I have had in years. Can not really explain why it was so good with the exception it melted in my mouth, zero fishy taste and a very bright pink to orange color. The side salad was awsome as well. Had a variety of "stuff" in it to make it excellent. Brooke R. (Server) was very nice and did not stop to breath on he time I was there. Great to see the work ethic of central PA. Next time I am in College Station, definitely making this a go to spot. But..... you need to get in fast. Have limited hours and closed on Monday. read more

Call ahead for a reservation because of all things Covid related. We were lucky to get same day rez and only had to wait 15 min upon arriving. My husband had the crab legs and raved- my kids liked their menu options for kiddos, and I had the most delicious pesto portabella (a GREAT vegetarian option). I was a little disappointed with their margarita- I even sent it back (which I never do). But this place was good- VERY good. Pricey, but worth the price. read more

Service was great. Very friendly and helpful making suggestions. Food was very good both appetizers and main courses. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Ambiance was nice with plenty of room and not too noisy.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Will come back the next time through the area. read more

Enjoyed the Food, service and the entire dining experience. Considering it is a "Steakhouse" , I thought the prices were reasonable.

Food is amazing and coming from NYC/Westchester, the prices are great for the quality of food. Appetizers are Fantastic (we tried all of them!) and the steak is delicious and cooked perfectly. Would highly recommend! read more

Scrumptious steak but the portions were small for the price. We left hungry and broke!

The waitress we had was GREAT! We ordered the Cajun Pot and it was bland in flavor. Corn was frozen to the core. I tried ordering one of their house drinks (Italian Manhattan) and they didn't have a all the ingredients so I couldn't have it. The special of the day for this steak house...a broccoli soup. Food was underwhelming. read more

Nice evening out. Pleasant place to eat - friendly atmosphere. We had a reservation. Staff was nice, not excellent but real good. Food has a solid selection of steakhouse fare with a menu that is good for most all people. We went for our anniversary. We had salad, crab cakes, steaks. Both had cocktails and one had wine. We'd be glad to visit again. read more

I went to Kelly's for the second time on a recent trip to State College to visit family and had another great experience! The staff is friendly and the restaurant has a nice atmosphere. Both visits I had a salad which was packed with fresh ingredients and a lot of flavor and also opted for the chowder which was heavy but delicious! On my recent visit they had crab tots as a speciality appetizer which I highly recommend if they have again! read more

Kelly's Steak and Seafood - Crab Tots - Seafood Near Me - Boalsburg, Pennsylvania

So this rating is from the heart because the cowboy rib eye is so dear to me. 1. Standard dinner roll with butter 2. The cowboy rib eye, 16oz of juicy tenderness, cooked medium and on point. Had blue cheese cream sauce, garlic mash and veggies... I added on 3 garlic oven roasted prawns. The entree was delicious! Tip: their coke concentrate seemed to be stronger than your average place, thus didn't taste watered down. 3. Mint chocolate cheesecake.... really nothing to say except that it was pretty blaze' blaze' ie. pretty whatever. Perhaps the pecan pie or chocolate cake should've been my pick. All in all, it was standard pricing for any high end steak place, but cheaper than a Ruth's Chris. I would go back. read more

I've lived in Boalsburg for seven years but never ate here because A) it's a bit out of my usual price range and B) I'm a vegetarian so a steak house isn't my go to. My dad was visiting from out of state for his birthday and wanted to go here and we were all VERY impressed! I had the blue cheese salad and pesto pasta and really enjoyed both. My family had calamari, crab dip, and various steaks and loved them. My dad flagged down our waitress to ask her to tell the chef it was the best ribeye he'd had in years. He even picked the bone up and chewed it after! My coworkers recommended the lobster Gouda sauce and my dad and grandma both were scraping it off their plates it was apparently that delicious. I finished off with the Italian lemon cake which was divine. I will only be back for special occasions due to the prices but absolutely worth it for a special occasion meal read more

Great steak and seafood restaurant. They even have some vegetarian options. The pesto stuffed Portabella mushroom with side vegetables and mashed potatoes was delicious. If you get a steak dish you can add a lobster tail for $7.00 or two for $14. The mandarin orange salad it was delicious. I had the dressing on the side and didn't even need it. read more

It was my daughter's graduation dinner and I understand it was going to be busy. We came here 4 years ago and thought it was poor but it was during Covid. So we thought we would give it another chance. We should not have, the server was not at all friendly and made multiple members of our table feel uncomfortable. She did not smile once and frankly for the price point you charge it should not be this way. The food was average at best and we will not be back. read more

We went to Kelly's for a special occasion. Even though their website said they were open until 8 they told us the last reservation we could get was at 7:15. we arrived at 7:20 and were seated. We were told the kitchen was closing at 7:30 so we had to order. We ordered a salad and an appetizer and our entrees. In 3 minutes our salad and appetizer arrived. Before we were even 1/2 way through our apps(10 minutes) our entrees arrived. We felt rushed but continued to enjoy our evening. About 10 minutes into our meal I asked Jordan, our server for more au jus for my sandwich. I was told I couldn't get anymore au jus cuz the kitchen had closed and they had shut down everything. I said, but I don't have enough to finish my sandwich and was told again the kitchen closed at 7:30. As we continue to eat our dry sandwich they were cleaning the dining room, bringing out the mop to mop the floors. We were never offered dessert for my husbands birthday. We were there 45 minutes. For an upscale restaurant this is bad practice. If you are only open 2 1/2 hours a day you should at least have your food options open for those hours. We felt hugely rushed, that our waitress was unapologetic, and for the price we did not have a good experience. I have been to Kelly's many times and generally have enjoyed my experience but this time was not good. I am in the business and customer service and making your customers feel important are key. We got none of that tonight. I was excited to take my husband there for his first time on his birthday, but we were shocked at the experience we had. Disappointing. read more

Food is great. Service is great. Food is well priced. I always forget about this place, but shouldn't. It is solid, especially for state college. One more thing - They have great mitigation strategies for Covid-19. This place is well run. read more

I visited on Augusta 11th, it was a really good restaurant pretty small but the service was good. We ordered the Thai calamari and chicken strips for my son. My husband ordered the salmon while I ordered the NY strip steak. His entree ran abut $30. Mind was $49, I think it was overall pretty expensive but a girl has to eat!! The food was prepared well. It is also a kid friendly restaurant. read more

I went here after my grad school graduation at PennState, and I had such a fun time with my family and friends. We ordered sooo much food and it was all delicious and quick. The service was fantastic and the porterhouse was pretty darn good. We had numerous sides such as the awkwardly named calamari- tender tubes and tentacles, spinach crab dip and more! The food was overall very VERY solid, and an easy recommendation if you find yourself in the area. read more

Had the delmo last night and blackened salmon. Best steak i've had in long time. Also their chop chop salad is the best and they sell the dressing in bulk on it! read more

Unfortunately we were very underwhelmed by this restaurant. It came as a recommendation from a friend. The seafood soup was good. But the Delmonico steaks were really just bone-in ribeyes and full of fat and grisly. The Halibut cheeks were only ok. The food also came out very quickly so definitely not a spend money on alcohol and enjoy yourself. We ate within 50 minutes and that included appetizers, soup/salad and a main course. That's how fast the food was served to us...one on top of the other. There is no bottles of wines, only glasses of wine too. I usually don't leave bad reviews just I hope helpful ones. Slow down a little on your service...we felt so rushed. We completely understand limited seating but we eat out almost every night and never feel as rushed as tonight and this considered final dining. The meal was &215 for 3 people so we would've like to enjoy it. read more

Food was good but I got charged for steak I didn't order. I ordered a 7 oz got 10 oz and was charged for the 10 oz. I don't know if she wanted a bigger tip by doing that. Had to remind her about my lemon for my water. Extra bread for the crab dip was extra charge. Other party ordered bison burger and he enjoyed it. The steak I got was on the tough side even tho I asked it to be medium rare. The smashed potatoes was delicious even though I was looking forward to baked potato read more

I really love Kelly's. Awesome food and great service. I was there this past week and had the most delicious jumbo prawns with garlic butter, mashed potatoes and grilled vegetables. My sister got the lobster corn ravioli and loved them. The side salad with mandarin oranges, crushed candied nuts and house vinaigrette was so good too! I got the lemon cream cake for dessert and it was so good. Our server was so nice and friendly, she took great care of us. The one hostess wasn't very friendly, but the amazing food completely made up for it. read more

Our family loves Kelly's. I've never had a bad meal here. On occasion I like some things better than others. The Filet is usually bomb and I'm not an easterner but I LOVE the crab cakes here. They're all crab and delicious. Service and bar are always top notch. Try a pear martini if you like lemon drop's. Food here is expensive but not overpriced for the quality. Have eaten here 8 times and Love it! read more

I arrived at 835pm. Online it said that the restaurant closes at 9pm. So, I was sat down at 837. A waiter came to the table and said I have 8 mins to order before they close the kitchen. I said I was ready to order and the waiter said: "I am not sure why the sat you down, the kitchen was closed 5 minutes ago." Certainly, I was not going to insist to be served, but it was tacky. read more

Excellent food and the service was great. Although the sea food pots were unavailable due to an issue and the beer that I ordered was also unavailable, our server provided knowledgeable recommendations and made up for the minor inconvenience. The employees were friendly with my young kids and the kids menu was excellent. We look forward to our next visit to try the seafood pots. read more
