5 STARS - The Best Mexican in Poughkeepsie!…read more Whenever I come to Poughkeepsie to visit my parents, we LOVE getting takeout from here. The Mexican food is honestly the BEST in Poughkeepsie -- fresh, flavorful, and truly authentic. I live in Miami Beach, and there's only one good Mexican spot near me, so finding this place was such a treat. The quality and authenticity here are on another level. The inside is really cute, warm, and inviting, and the patio is lovely when the weather is nice. Whether dining in or grabbing takeout, everything is consistently amazing. Service is beyond friendly and amazing! Absolutely one of my favorite spots in the area. Highly, highly recommend!

But the last time I went there...terrible... the lady at the counter won't even greet you... straight to the "que tu quiere"... rude. Then she sloppily served the food on the plate and shoved it toward me. Her attitude is just horrible. No thank you, no hello, no enjoy or buen provecho. It almost seems like you are bothering her when you order food. The table was a little dirty, had to wipe it myself. I only went there because my partner wanted to... I would never choose to eat there myself.

I particularly enjoyed the Vassar noodle bowl, which featured chewy noodles in a coconut milk curry sauce (allegedly Malaysian, more Malaysian "inspired") with BBQ pulled pork on top!! I would never have thought to combine these two ingredients, but they work beautifully together. It's a very warm and comforting dish, and the mint, cilantro, and radish garnish helps provide a bit of contrast. I liked the sour cream drizzle on top, too. I feel like this dish could really be fantastic if they adjusted the thickness and amount of curry sauce (the noodles are swimming in it like a soup) and provided more herbs and radishes on top. It could also benefit from a crispy topping to provide textural contrast. I've had other things from here that I've liked, but that weren't anything special. Like the Malaysian curry, their chicken tikka masala sauce also has a very runny texture, instead of the thicker richer sauces I've had elsewhere. And their bao buns are honestly not worth buying, since they have no hoisin sauce or creamy aioli/slaw element that binds together the rather dry meat, pickle slices, and scallions in each bun. They seem to exclusively be a grab and go kind of place, which makes sense to me as it's in a college town. Inside it's small and rather bleak, without any kind of decoration and not much seating. They take a pretty long time to prepare orders too, so plan ahead in case you're in a hurry.

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.

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!

Wow. I expected their Cuban sandwich to be good based on all the reviews and photos, but I was…read morehonestly blown away by how great it was. It had perfect ingredients and the perfect proportion of everything. My partner and I shared one. We also got an order of the pernil (roast pork) with rice and beans, and shared that. The pernil was amazing! Tender and flavorful - it's probably one of the best ever! In fact the only Cuban sandwich I ever had that was as good as this one was when I worked in NYC in the 1980's, and I went to a small Cuban restaurant near my office on West 46th street. The rice and beans were great, along with the sauce they give you, which is just spicy enough and flavorful enough to bring every flavor sense front and center. Portions were also big enough that we have leftovers for tomorrow!!! Service was friendly, caring, and with a smile. Loved everything about this place and the warmth of the people who clearly love what they do. Sadly we had no room for dessert, but next time we'll make up for it!

I finally got a break during the week to come on a Monday for lunch but came to find out they only have a limited menu on Monday! No ramen!!! My friend and I decided to stay for lunch anyway and tried the surf & turf and chicken Tika. I have to say, the food was soooo good!! The surf & turf was so well cooked, medium rare on the steak, tender salmon, very good mashed potatoes. My friend also really enjoyed her chicken dish. The food was well portioned and we were both satisfied after cleaning our plates without any leftovers. The only reason I didn't give 5 Stars is because I didn't get to have my ramen! I will return again and try it so I can update my review!! Definitely give this place a try, you won't be disappointed (even on a limited menu). ;)

This is my first time eating Detroit style pizza and H&P didn't disappoint. The place was small, with seatings for 2, a bar top overlooking the maestros, and a communal table in the middle.

We ordered the wings and were done with that... and the pizza was still waiting to be served. I'm sure those take outs had something to say about that.
