Cafe Alina

THE BEST PAKISTANI AND MEDITERRANEAN CUISINE AT PENN STATE. THE FOOD, THE SERVICE AND THE HOSPITALITY OF THE OWNERS IS ON POINT.
HIGHLY RECOMMENDED !!!

Cafe Alina is a fantastic restaurant with both a fast casual and sit down feel. The staff are extremely friendly and have a family feel. The food is clearly cooked fresh and with love and is exquisite! You can't go wrong with just about anything on the menu, it's all delicious.

Awesome place. The owner is friendly. The food is amazing. I had a chicken chargha, best chicken meal I've had in state college. I recommend trying the coconut cookies. The tea there is amazing and authentic.

Great Pakistani food! Chicken Biryani (rice included) and Chicken Karahi (carbs not included) are pretty spicy but Chicken Tikka (rice included) is more mild. I like spicy food so I like them all (although I will sweat when eating the first two). The herbs are wonderful. The portions are generous so it might actually be meant to feed two meals.

Brilliant food, ordered the biryani and half chicken chagra. The biryani was perfect and had a beautiful balance between the masala and herbs used. The slight dash of chilli really allowed the dish to flourish and makes the food authentic. The chicken changra was brilliant and cumin used while making the rice was an excellent decision. The chicken is cooked to perfection , its delicate and juicy while being cooked in the inside. The tomato salad, raita's, and lime perfectly balances the dish. They have the most authentic Lassi I've tasted in PA
