    We've visited Poughkeepsie several times, but thanks to the Karpo app, we discovered this hidden…read morehole-in-the-wall gem that we somehow missed before. The restaurant is small and cozy, with just a handful of tables and street parking available. We were lucky enough to grab a parking spot right in front of the door, which was a great start to our visit. From the moment we walked in, the staff was incredibly friendly, welcoming, and helpful. Their service made us feel right at home. For food, we ordered the Korean Grill Tofu Buns, Pork Dumplings, Banh Mi Sandwich, and a Fruity Pebbles Milkshake. As someone who had been craving vegan bao buns for quite some time, I was thrilled to see them on the menu. The Korean Grill Tofu Buns absolutely delivered and were one of the highlights of the meal. The Banh Mi Sandwich was another excellent choice, packed with flavor, and the pork dumplings were delicious as well. The real surprise was the Fruity Pebbles Milkshake. It was definitely unique, but honestly one of the best milkshakes we've had in a long time. Fun, nostalgic, and incredibly tasty! Our only disappointment? This restaurant isn't closer to where we live. If it were, we'd be regulars without a doubt. A fantastic find, and one we'll definitely return to whenever we're back in Poughkeepsie.

    Twisted Soul - The area they set up at my venue; their staff made it so beautiful. The pasta bar, taco bar and chicken sandwiches were here.

    I'll be honest, I was disappointed by my experience here. I absolutely love Mexican food and, being…read morenew to the area, was excited to see this business with an immaculate reputation on Yelp. I did come at an in-between time (around 3pm), so it's possible that this was a one-off, but it was so meh that I'm not sure I'll be back to give it another shot (if I do, I'll come right at lunch or dinner time). The good: the mole was fantastic! Even with a mediocre meal, this stood out as amazing. The portions were generous. I thought at one point the woman asked if I wanted chicken or beef enchiladas, and having never had beef enchiladas I said "beef please." It turns out, I received chicken enchiladas with a portion of skirt steak on top (see photo). Again, very generous. The decor was lively. The misses: The beans were quite bland, to the point where I was surprised...it's such a foundational element of Mexican cuisine, but they needed more spices / a touch more salt. Also, my wife ordered the veggie wrap and it was bland. It contained lots of different vegetables, but somehow they weren't seasoned. I know vegetarian burritos aren't all the craze, but when I took a bite of it, I agreed...it was just vegetables, no seasoning at all. Nice to have it on the menu for folks like my wife, but why not season them first? Maybe it was an oversight. The horchata was different from what I've had in the past...not bad, but not something I would recommend either. It was watery, lacked any cinnamon flavor, and had ground almond on top, which was interesting (maybe this is regional?). Without the dynamite mole and the generous portions, this would be a 2 star review, but I can't, in good conscience, give less than 3 stars with mole like that. But the beans...womp womp.

    This place is amazing! There's about 9 tables, the service…read moreis great, portions are ample, prices low. Fresh corn tortillas, there is a big difference in flavor from the packaged ones. The menu is extensive with some Mexican plates you rarely see at most Mexican restaurants. The totopos are really crisp. The beans are well cooked and seasoned, the rice is moist, with some entrees the piquancy can be adjusted. The main dining room and uni-sex rest room is kept clean. Take-out available. Compostable and microwavable takeout containers There is some street parking.

    First time coming here and won't be the last…read more They have a variety of empanadas to choose from (beef, beef and cheese, chicken, chicken and cheese, bbq chicken, buffalo chicken, pork, pepperoni pizza, pizza, Shepards pie, Cuban!). They all come 2/$6 and AREN'T sold individually! Potato balls (pork, beef, chicken, buffalo chicken) They have side of rice and beans, rice and gandules, yellow rice, and Mac and cheese. They also have dessert empanadas with apple and guava and cheese. We got the beef empanadas and the apple pie with powdered sugar for desert! The apple pie empanadas were soo good! It was like a crispy and flaky pie in your hands!

    Lots of Yelpers and CT foodies began to rave about Empanadas the place togo. I can absolutely see…read morewhy. You can tell because when you get there, there's usually a line. The staff is pleasant and helpful in recommending only the best for us to choose from. My husband and I wish we got more chicken and cheese ones because we ended up going rock paper scissors on who gets the last one from our order. I'm always a fan of a ground beef and cheese empanada and they delivered there as well. Perfect combo for the guava and cheese dessert empanadas. We even tried the potato fillers, which the one for the day was shepherds pie. We devoured everything and still think about those bites. My husband keeps asking "when are we going back to the empanadas place in Meriden" (he's not good with names). This means we will be back soon because we both can't wait!
