Pelicana Chicken

We tried the honey soy garlic chicken, chicken rice bowl, the wings and we got a few extras. Everything was great. The gentleman working the register was fantastic, great personality, good salesman and he helped us alot. Food came out fast and piping hot. The market next door we've shopped at regularly. Overall definitely a great choice

This place is awesome. I've never seen one before and decided to stop in for lunch on a whim, and I don't regret it one bit. The chicken is incredibly crispy and tender, and the spicy honey soy flavoring is amazing. The service was great and the attached asian market was fun to shop around while waiting for food to be ready. Definitely recommend giving it a try, you get a lot of really good food for your money.

Why do I eat where the food hurts my face?! If you're a fellow hot-food masochist like me, this is the kind of dish that will have you both regretting your choice, and struggling with the urge to keep going even after your lips are on fire and your stomach is telling you you were full five or six bites ago. I, personally, lost the fight with my id and kept going until it was all gone. If you like spicy Korean food and aren't afraid of some heat, order Pelicana's Sweet and Spicy chicken thighs, extra crispy, level 3. If you're a white American and show no signs of having a tempered palate, they might try to warn you off with a few comments or questions making sure you know what you're getting into. Stick to your guns, it's worth it. The coating maintains its crispness, which is no small feat considering how liberally they coat the chicken chunks with their delectable sauce. And the sauce is the perfect combination of sweetness and heat that you can tell does not come from insultingly just adding capsaicin for effect. It's actually flavorful. Every time my son and I get this to bring home, we inevitably ask whose dumb idea it was to go with level 3 again, but then we finish each

If you’re from somewhere with good Korean fried chicken you’ll be totally disappointed. Chicken is okay but the crispy and crispy spicy are not as crispy as better Korean fried chicken chains/restaurants. And the sauce was just sort of squeezed out of a bottle onto the chicken instead of mixed around in a bowl or something to cover all the chicken. Wasn’t very good sauce either. Not to mention the chicken was totally undercooked. Also, nowhere to really sit except a thin table facing the parking lot. And way overpriced. Maybe they can get away with this in State College but please don’t think this is great Korean fried chicken. Mandu wasn’t bad though. Saved them another star deduction!

Not a bad little place. Both Chicken items were excellent, Mochi Cheese Donut Balls were decent, Corn/Slaw good. The pickled veggies were ehhh. A little pricey & this reviewer highly recommends ordering in advance as everything is prepared fresh. 13 total seats, with a little market attached to it.
