We've visited Poughkeepsie several times, but thanks to the Karpo app, we discovered this hidden hole-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. read more

I kinda fell into this place. They were at a street fair. I tried the corn & goat cheese empanada. Holy cow!!! I loved it!! So I found the store and when I went inside they were very warm and welcoming. It's on the smaller side with seating. Not with the food and the quality. I'm very happy to have found them. read more

Twisted Soul - Asian Fusion Near Me - Poughkeepsie, New York

I've eaten there and the food was amazing, but fell in love with the desserts, especially the cupcakes.I would definitely recommend them for a eatery to anyone read more

Twisted Soul catered an event I attended that included 150 or so people buffet style. I have attended events where I eat very little to nothing, based on the presentation, aromas and practices of the servers. The food, provided by Twisted Soul was flavorful, and very delicious! As an omnivore, I found I enjoyed the vegetarian, meat and vegan cuisine. Wonderful! read more

I love the food here! Delicious even takeout packaged and presented nicely, great fusion and flavorful!

The "food concepts" at twisted soul are fresh and ambitious. Vassar students really seem to enjoy the international flavors offered here, as it's a good alternative to the bland food you find in the dining halls and elsewhere around town. 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. read more

A cute little fast casual spot with an array of food options. We got the Braised pork belly rice bowl and the fried chicken curry noddle bowl as well as pulled pork bao buns to go. Seating inside is very limited the employees are friendly. The noodle bowl was very good but a little small but the curry wasn't too spicy and had a nice coconut cream relief. The braised porky belly rice bowl was a nice portion but the sauce was a little over bearing. Could've used a little more of the nuts to give it a better texture. The bao buns were very good. Nice fluffy warm buns and packed with the pulled pork. We also got the Thai tea and lavender lemonade. Lemonade was amazing it had chia seeds in it. The Thai tea was okay. It was way too creamy to the point it was white and I couldn't really taste the tea that much. I'm not from the area but if I ever came back maybe I would try something different from the menu read more

First off! This menu is the most interesting menu I have read in awhile. So many different cuisines but it all works. A friend I was visiting in Poughkeepsie suggested this place so we ordered lunch to be delivered. She got the Braised Pork Belly Rice Bowl. She loved it! I got the Bibimbap Korean Style Rice Dish and a beef empanada just to try. The bibimbap was very tasty. The egg on top of it traveled very well. I can't believe it got to me so nice, still runny, it even just looked pretty. Almost fake it was so pretty. The tofu was pan fried, slightly firm and not falling apart. The spicy Korean sauce it came with was delicious and made the dish. I wish I lived closer so I could order this all of the time. The empanada was good but I would like to order a different appetizer to try. read more

Twisted Soul - Bibimbap Korean Style Rice Dish with a perfectly fried egg - Asian Fusion Near Me - Poughkeepsie, New York

Walking distance from Vassar and also a small parking lot in the back. Only one table with 3 chairs available, so aim for take out. We had the curry with noodles and grilled chicken which was filling and exactly as such, the pork dumplings which came with rice so it ended up being a decent meal in itself, the chicken empanada which tasted like there was cheese inside, and the tofu bahn mi, which had fresh ingredients but wasn't very much a bahn mi. In particular I didn't like the sweet bbq sauce that they used with the tofu in the sandwich. Ingredients are fresh, and has an assorted menu. read more

Years later and this place is STILL at the very top of my favorites list. You can't go wrong here and I love to support this local business! I can only speak to the vegetarian dishes but none have disappointed. The Argentinian empanadas are delicious- I especially love the corn and goat cheese variety with the most aaaammmaazing chimichurri sauce. I dream of this sauce people. We love the thickness of the Malaysian coconut curry over a jasmine rice bowl, too. The chickpea fries are a MUST try, absolutely crispy salty perfectness. Mac and cheese (without protein) was also decadent and filling, but a very tiny portion for $6. That brings me to the point of price; Twisted is certainly on the pricier side for smaller portions. HOWEVER, the food here is very fresh tasting and flavorful and is unlike anything you can get locally. It is worth it every time!! They also have a lot of cool drink options. I am not incredibly impressed with their bubble tea options (a little on the unmixed/chalky side when I've tried) but I do really enjoy the lemonades with basil seeds- very unique and refreshing. Run don't walk here people!! read more

We decided to order some Twisted Soul because my fiancé was craving the pork belly buns. I decided I'd try something new this time. I ended up getting the pork belly rice bowl and WOW, so good! The first thing I tasted was the delicious sauce. There were so many different textures and the pork belly was plentiful and tender. On my last visit, I felt like the portion was pricy. This time around, I was stuffed and didn't think the price was bad for what you got. I received a lot of food. I also picked up a taro bubble tea because it's been a while and who doesn't like bubble tea? It was perfect and comes in one size. I was very pleased with this visit. Such amazing flavors and pleasing to the eye as well. read more

The food has always been amazing here. I've been coming here for years but miss the old twisted soul so much! There's no cozy seating anymore or even a bathroom! They used to provide reusable silverware and offer you a water carafe and glasses for your table but no longer. Tons of plastic use with disposable plastic silverware and plastic non compostable containers. It's become a quick to go service counter with just two small tables by the door so if you decide to stay and eat you will be freezing the whole time. It's no longer a nice place to sit and have lunch, definitely recommend only getting take out from here on out! That being said I always recommend the baos and empanadas. read more

They've been around for years. Their menu reads like a mini food mall with their empanadas, arepas, dumplings, buns, bobas, and more. They are not necessarily the best you'll ever have for the dishes, but they are always quite good and especially convenient for when everyone wants something different. Just plan extra time around lunch and dinner - demand from Vassar students will often overwhelm staff and a 10 minute order might take 25. read more

Twisted Soul is a great way to mix up your meals. It has a large array of options that can fulfill whatever you may be craving! Even so, their staff isn't always particularly hospitable and often leave you feeling rushed or worried. Several times I have ordered something and was unsure if my order was taken properly. Their boba may be overly sweet and in some cases lacks a bit of flavor. I often leave this place feeling a bit disappointed, but appreciate what it brings to the community! read more

I really am a fan of this shop. They put flavors together in an inspired way. Generally speaking I like classic cooking but I like their blends. My favorites are the Vassar noodle bowl and twisted Mac with pulled pork. read more

Stopped by this place after seeing a write-up in the Hudson valley magazine about places to have good dumplings. They do have quite a menu to navigate from rice bowls to steam buns to the dumplings to noodle bowls to all sorts of twisted teas (liquor to get it spiked) and some really good lemonade options I got the one with Ginger and I got one to go as well. My review is solely about the dumplings. to be clear these aren't northern Chinese style dumplings with the soup in the middle but there more like the Mandu Dial Korean dumplings which don't have the soup and are a little more dense. I tried the vegetarian, chicken and pork. But vegetarian dumplings were more of a bean paste type filling which was pretty good and the dumplings were layered on hot fresh jasmine rice garnished with chopped scallions. The chicken dumplings were accented with ginger which made them pop and the pork dumplings flavorful. They were accompanied with three different types of sauces that ranged from hot to sweet n sour to a type oil herb concoction; very different from what I've had in traditional dim sum houses which made it stand out. I did have the chicken empanada which came out hot and fresh, I suspect they are Argentinian style so they are not deep fried like you would get at a Dominican or Puerto Rican style restaurant. A lot more delicate and textured as well. We did split the pulled pork banh mi and I have to admit I was a little let down at the quality of the baguette; generally speaking I'm used to having a fresh baked baguette with a little bit of crunch and this one had a substantial crust on it but the pulled pork and the filling more than made up for it. I would say this had a very cozy ambiance, plenty of seating, a very high rate of turnover but what really won me over was the customer service and how friendly the staff was. Those girls were quite engaging and expedient; If you're the boss of this place and you're reading this review throw those girls a couple of extra bucks at the end of the week. read more

My boyfriend and I came here for our lil monthsary and even though they were only serving to go orders, the staff was so nice and there was no wait. There was a seating area just to the right of the place and when I tell you the food here is phenomenal-- omg. I forgot to picture my hibiscus tea and his vegan ice cream cookie but those were also amazing. We traveled from far to try this place out and it did not miss. Def plan on returning here for a future monthsary. In photo: Fried Chicken Noodle Bowl with Glass Noodles // Chicken Tikka Masala Mac&Cheese (both were EXTREMELY bussin ) read more

Twisted Soul was my HOLY GRAIL for my sweet sixteenth birthday party!!! If you're considering hiring them for an event, do it now! I wish I could give this business infinite stars! I don't even know where to begin with this wonderful group of people. The owner Brenda worked incredibly close with us the entire time despite being booked with many other events, and she was so flexible and easy to work with as we figured out what we wanted! She was my literal lifeline throughout this whole process. Twisted Soul's prices are extremely good for how many amenities they offer and their service was tremendous as they provided me with an extensive guide to look into every aspect of my food and the overall ambience that I wanted for my big day! She helped my family make a timeline and there were even employees there discreetly helping and giving out food at the stations and whatnot so I wouldn't have to worry about anything! I had no idea before this event how much food really plays into what people remember and their mood during the event. Brenda did so much wonderful work for our family helping us tour our venue and even coming in early to set up and even change things to make every little detail the most perfect it could be! The food was amazing!!!! She knew exactly what kids wanted and when and even went along with my tastes! We had a taco and pasta bar and a milkshake stand and chocolate fountain and it was all just so amazing. She even set up a fancy cocktail hour when people were arriving of some little French baguettes and fruit to go with my Beauty and the Beast Disney theme! If I ever had to plan another one of these big parties, Twisted Soul would be the first business I would look to book, both as a catering service and amazing guide!!! People still rave to this day talking about how much fun they had at my birthday party and none of it would have been possible if I wouldn't have hired Brenda and Twisted Soul!!! read more

I ordered via DoorDash & got the Fried Chicken Noodle Bowl (with udon), the Chicken & Beef Empanadas, the Pork Belly Baos and the Yuzu Lemonade. Highly recommend the Empanadas & Baos! They are baked so they are not too greasy, but still have delicious flavor on the inside. The chimichurri sauce on the side is a perfect pairing as it adds freshness & zest. The pork belly baos were what we expected. The outside buns were soft & fluffy while the braised pork belly melted in our mouths as we ate them. ALSO, try out the Yuzu Lemonade! It's super refreshing & it's not too sweet. It comes with sago which is similar to tapioca but they are a lot smaller. The only disappointment for me was the noodle bowl. It was too soupy for me, I expected it to be a little thicker as it is supposed to be a curry sauce. The flavor of the sauce is just okay, it's sweet with a little heat. The fried chicken was still crispy when the delivery arrived so that's a plus! I do think they food is a bit more expensive than other restaurants in this area but I believe it's worth trying out! This place is unique & reminds me of restaurants that you would see in the city. read more

Twisted Soul - Asian Fusion Near Me - Poughkeepsie, New York

Sad to say I will never go here again! They heat up the empanadas in the microwave and the girl who took the order tried to hide the fact they were taking it out of the fridge and microwaving from me! I thought they were taking out something else from the fridge!!! When I walked out and went to eat them in the car, they were super soggy, covered in oil from being over nuked in the microwave and NOT Edible from being so hot and the grease was dripping everywhere. I brought them right back in uneaten and asked for a refund and they gave me attitude and told me I needed to relax..when they had the audacity to call that an empanada and charge over $8 for something that is not presented the way any other empanada I have eaten anywhere else has ever been prepared & presented. I know how the owner use to serve these and this was not it-- I use to frequent this place when I had my business across the street and ordered empanadas almost every day from here. Sadly, the quality of food and service has gone down hill since 2021. I should give lesser stars but I'm not sure if the owner is aware the staff is being lazy and nuking these. Other restaurants that make empanadas always have a hot food warmer to keep them warm, crisp and on display; I don't know why Twisted Soul isn't doing this for their empanadas. The staffer told me it was the same owner as back then but I find it very hard to believe she would choose to refrigerate the empanadas and microwave them, serving greasy, soggy product to their customers. read more

First time getting takeout from here last night, and we have mixed feelings. The food was good overall but the wait time and service were unacceptable. My husband called in the order at 6:40 and was told it would be ready in 35 minutes. He texted me at 7:30 to say that he was still waiting, and had no idea how long it was going to be because the woman working there gave no indication, she just said that my fried chicken was taking a bit longer. So I called and asked and I was told that it would be about five more minutes. I asked the woman if there would be anything taken off the check or anything thrown in and she replied with a very curt "no." At 7:50, the food was finally ready so that 35 minute estimate was pretty much doubled. Husband said that the woman just handed him the bag of food and walked away. Based on the service, I absolutely would not return. I understand if it's a busy night, things happen, but your attitude makes a lot of difference. If she was apologetic, my feelings would probably be different. My Malaysian curry noodles with fried chicken was good. Flavor was nice, but I can't believe the order was held up because of a thin fried chicken cutlet. My son's chicken empanada was fine, the pastry was very nice and the filling was OK, not super flavorful or interesting. My husband's pulled pork mac & cheese was outstanding. The steamed pork belly dumplings were inconsistent. Some had no sauce and the meat was bland and others had more sauce and were more flavorful. The only other complaint is that everything was already dressed with herbs and cucumbers which suffered as they wilted and were not pleasant to eat hot. They should have been put in separate containers for adding at home. Overall the food was good, not great, and suffered because of the service. I also felt like everything was a bit overpriced for what we got. We had tried the pastry shop across the street a few months ago and thought the pastries were really outstanding so we would go back there again. But it's doubtful we will go to this restaurant anytime soon. Customer service is important and made all the difference last night, in a bad way. ** update 2/23. The owner reached out via private message as well and gave us a refund for a half our order, which really says to me a lot about the character of the owners. I understand it was a busy night and we all have bad days and we certainly appreciate this gesture and will patronize in the future. Overall we really did enjoy the food but the wait time definitely impacted my review so we will try them again in the future during a less busy time. read more

Twisted Soul - a bowl of noodles with tofu and radishes - Asian Fusion Near Me - Poughkeepsie, New York

I came to Twisted Soul after seeing pictures of their food on Instagram which all looked great. When we arrived it was difficult to find, this was due to Twisted Soul still being closed to the to the public in July of 2022... The door is shut and you order by pressing a doorbell and speaking with them through a slit in the door. The odd part is they may claim this is due to covid, but staff inside are not wearing masks, or gloves... it seems like an excuse to just not offer their customers seating, or bathrooms. This was very off-putting to me. We decided to order an array of food, from rice bowls to dumplings and bubble tea. All of the food was good, and very enjoyable. The major downfall is the seating, which is on the sidewalk in the heart of Poughkeepsie. They don't put out enough chairs so people are sitting on the tables with their dirty feet on them! We had to stand for a while waiting for another table to leave so we could grab two chairs and sit. My last complaint was one I witnessed while eating our food. A table of 4 which ordered a ton of food asked Twisted Soul employees for a cup of water. Their response was, we don't give out water, we can sell you a bottle. That is so ridiculous... they easily spent $80+ at their table and you cannot even give a cup of water to them? If you dined in, you would provide water without issue! Overall, great food but very poor atmosphere. If they opened their doors, provided bathrooms and water to customers I would have easily gave 4 stars. read more

I was visiting my friend at Vassar when she suggested this neat place to get dinner. She insisted that I try the Vassar Noodle Bowl and it was DELICIOUS. The curry sauce and pulled pork in the bowl was absolutely amazing. If you enjoy Asian food and trying something new, I would definitely recommend getting this. I also tried the lavender lemonade with basil seeds, which seems to be one of their specialties, and I loved it!! The flavor has a great balance and I had never tried basil seeds before in a drink, but it was surprisingly delicious. The seeds have almost a slimy coating and adds an interesting texture that I really enjoyed. However, some of my friends didn't enjoy that slimy feeling and preferred the drink without them, so that's something to keep in mind. Overall, I was incredibly satisfied with the food and service here and I look forward to coming when I visit again! read more

This place has way more than bubble tea, but this was the only thing I got here. Was hoping to get a cupcake, too but they didn't have any that day. They won a local contest for these apparently. Great location as it is in the downtown area near Vassar. Super nice staff. The restaurant is a bit small, but maybe par for the course in the area. I really enjoyed my mango Jasmine bubble tea. It had a great flavor and was refreshing. Could have used more boba, but it was ok. read more

Ordered Twisted Soul Delivery through Grubhub with a couple of friends on a Friday night. The process was pretty easy and it was delivered in about 30 minutes. I got the Fried Chicken Noodle Bowl with Sweet Potato Noodle. The chicken was very nicely fried and the batter was delicious. I didn't quite like the sweet potato noodles with the dish. I think the regular noodles would have paired more appropriately with the curry sauce. Overall, 3.5/5 stars rounded up for the speedy and nice delivery. read more

Twisted Soul - Fried Chicken Noodle Bowl - Asian Fusion Near Me - Poughkeepsie, New York

I just went here for lunch and boy was I unimpressed. First of all, the menu is so confusing. It goes from Latin flare to Thai to Japanese, then after all of that you can get chicken tikka masala mac and cheese. There are way to many things to pick from across a lot of cuisines, it must be impossible to master the flavors of all (and my assumption is correct). I got the bimbimbap and it tasted like something you would get at a super market. The 'homemade sauce' tasted nothing like it should be and the flavors were just not there. I also had the empanadas which were equally as bad. My coworker had the mac and cheese and also shared the same discomfort that they went and got something from another place after having a few bites. My suggestion is to shorten the menu and really work on making food that is worth eating. If you want to make latin, great stop making dumplings. If you want Asian, cool stop making Arepas. Whatever you do just don't keep doing what you're doing. read more

Amazing food, some of the best in Poughkeepsie actually.....but they are closed so often, even on days when they are supposed to be open. Closed sundays and Tues and occasionally Weds too. Sometimes it's a clean sweep with sun, mon, Tues and Weds closed. I'm not sure how this works as a business model but they are always busy. Try and call in an order?..no answer, even when open...or they may just be closed that day ...who knows.... but when it's open and you catch a slow window, you can order food and get it within 25-30 mins. Regardless...still of the best food read more

I haven't tried their food yet but their cupcakes are to die for! I happened to be shopping next door and a friend told me about their cupcakes so we stopped in. I couldn't get over the selection of deliciousness! It was hard to choose just a couple so I brought home 6 of them on the pretense that I could share! So I shared a little, but mostly they were mine and they're amazing! The next time I was in the area I stopped in for more! Will definitely have to try their food soon! read more

Great place for Asian fusion food! Amazing staff and a great variety of foods to choose from. Got a beef empanada, the presentation is simple and fabulous with the chimichurri sauce on the side in a bottle. Also got the fried chicken noodle bowl which was very good as well and reminded me of something similar I'd have at home, just wish there was a little more spice/zing to the sauce. Got the hibiscus vodka drink which was light and refreshing. Overall, this is a must visit place for anyone in the area. read more

Twisted Soul - Fried chicken noodle bowl and beef empanadas - Asian Fusion Near Me - Poughkeepsie, New York

I have NEVER waited so long for a drink that entailed pouring some ice, some green tea & a scoop of boba into a freaking cup. I once waited over 25 minutes- and watched while no one worked on drink orders for that long- & waited another time for 15 minutes when I was the only person in the place & there were no other orders to be filled. Ridiculous. Not worth it. read more

Lost a point for price (I'm looking at you $3 lemonade). Service is excellent, friendly, and fast(ish). Everything is made fresh, so you have to allow for the laws of physics. I am working my way through the menu but so far the Asian salad is my favorite. My pharmacy manager loved the dumplings. The lavender lemonade with basil seeds is super tasty and still tastes good if diluted with water (I do 1/2&1/2 but the flavor holds even at 1/3&2/3) but I usually just drink it as made. For a daily lunch, I need something about 10-15% less expensive but the prices are perfect for my portion control. ... UPDATE: I finally got across the street to TS's soup and sandwich counter...DELICIOUS!!!!!! And much more price appropriate for me. read more

I had a great experience at Twisted Soul today! During COVID-19, they ask customers to call orders in, but the friendliest crew member noticed us outside reading the menu and was so kind to come out and take our orders (socially distanced with masks, of course). They said the order would take 15 minutes and was ready exactly on time. I had the almond milk bubble tea, which did not disappoint, and the Korean Tofu Steamed Buns. The flavor was different than what I expected, but the spice level was perfect, and the portion size was perfect too - not overly stuffed and I didn't go hungry. I also stan because they have a decent number of vegan and vegetarian options, YES! I would love to try other food items, and I'll definitely be back for more bubble tea! Support local businesses! read more

I thought I would love this place based on the interesting menu and the reviews. But my experience wasn't very good. I tried: - Goat Cheese Empanada: not much goat cheese and not much flavor overall. - Fried Chicken Curry bowl: the fried chicken itself was terrific. But the curry was too watery and detracted from the overall bowl. - Boba tea: pretty bad boba tea with stale boba. I was in there before lunch rush and it was still very slow to get food. I wouldn't come here if you are hoping to squeeze in a quick lunch. read more

Date night with my son and figured we would try a new place. The place is super small only 2 seats. The service was fine. We made a mistake and ordered one for their noodle bowls. Just thinking about it and I'm gagging. The mix of pulled pork, peanuts, mint and what ever else was in there, has definitely a lasting effect on my son and I. It's a hard NO for us read more

The BBQ pulled pork mac and cheese is INSANE and so are the pork buns!! I'm so happy there is a place near me that has pork buns because the only other place I know of that makes them is in Uptown Kingston. The only reason I'm not rating 5 stars is because I feel the prices are pretty high. I easily spend over $30 on a meal for myself. The service is great and the food is phenomenal, but the prices are a little much. read more

The service was slow despite ordering ahead and the food were probably decent at the best. Wasn't too sure why this place is rated so highly when the food portion are small, tasted below average and overpriced. Had 3 empanadas for $8 and the braised pork belly rice bowl which is way too sweet and priced at $13.25 for a small portion. I barley found enough mango or crispy onion on the rice. They used the topping very sparsely. The best thing we probably had were the smoothie and the peach milk bubble tea. Are milk bubble tea suppose to have half a cup of ice in it? Probably not, but it is what it is. This whole meal altogether including the drinks($8.70) costed $32.38. Definitely wasn't worth it and their twist on Asian cuisine isn't working. read more
