I love, love, love their fusion take. I've been to some fusion restaurants and it was more mixed up frather than fusion. Everything I've had here is so flavorful, clean, filling and so satisfying. Moving up here from the city has left me craving flavorful food (I wound up trying to make the dishes I miss most). So glad I found Twisted Soul - so far I've tried the noodle bowls and rice bowls, mac and cheese and steamed buns. All packed with flavor. I think my current favorite is the Kool Noodle Bowl. A nice take on the cold sesame noodles (prepared firm, as they should be, with a delicate peanut flavor and perfectly seasoned, firm tofu). Everything tastes fresh, no gloppy fillers or additives. Thank you, I'm so happy I found you. I'm making my way through the menu.

The Argentinian Empanadas did not taste like authentic Argentinian Empanadas at all. You could also tell they had just been microwaved.

This is a little gem. The food portions aren't huge but the flavors are amazing. Well worth the trip.

Food was decent, but I didn't realize it was more of a takeout restaurant than a sit down restaurant. I got the fried chicken bun. It was a little bland the empanada was better.

I was itching to try this place, but when I arrived during off hours on a week day, about a dozen people were sitting around waiting for orders in a tiny space. No one acknowledged me for several minutes. The service was very slow, and I ended up leaving. I might try again and I will edit my review if need be.

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!

I'm not trying to hurt anyone's business, ever. But we were not happy with the 2 dishes we ordered. The flavors were good, food was fresh, portions of carbs were huge, but it's like the dishes were unfinished. We were very glad to find vegan and gluten free options where there are very few. Maybe beggars can't be choosers. It just seems these 2 dishes that we ordered (curry noodle and mad rice) were missing so much. There should be vegetables in a curry noodle dish. It was a huge bowl of noodles with a tasty curry, a few herb leaves, 2 slices of radish, a 1/2 tsp scallions, and 3 medium-sized pcs of tofu that I cut smaller to help me feel like i was eating more. The rice dish had like 2 tbs shredded tofu which is measly for protein, and again no veggies. I feel like there's a lot of creativity here and they've got a good start, but what we had was unsatisfying. We'd gladly take smaller portions of carbs to get some more protein and a nice portion of vegetables. I'd rather have more actual food than just a "food concept". I wish them well, but we wouldn't be back unless the food changed.

Tasty food! A little too pricey for the amount and a little too much fusion to be perfect at all the menu items, but overall good execution. For carry out we got lamb dumplings, a chicken empanada, a chicken curry rice bowl, and pork belly steam buns. Everything was pleasant (pork buns were the favorite) though for $50 for 2 people we weren’t exactly full. The building space is set up well for a college-style restaurant with an emphasis on carry out. Would get again.Vegetarian options: Lots of veg options, tofu heavy—all sounded good!Parking: Parking behind building.Dietary restrictions: Good menu options for people with various diet needs.

I was excited to see a store offering Fusion foods the combinations were a little nuts but so am i so why not i said !!I ordered 3 empanadas sweet potato was okChicken empanada ok beef was ok too .... I worked in food service as Executive chef of many NYC locations and realized that they were stamped like from a commissary . Not store made . The Bibimbop Rice bowl was ok .The killer today was the pork belly rice bowl this was not good , white rice smothered in Sweet Thai Chili Sauce and chunks of old pork belly and where was the crackling nowhere to be found. The highlight of the meal was the fried egg , Like you cant mess that up right luckily for them that was on point a perfect fried egg wasted over mediocre rice and store bought sweet thai chili sauce isnt fusion ....... Please get your flavors in check , i will not order from here again empanadas were ok for not being made in store ....Because this owner cant take consumer reviews and makes an argument out of any review they disagree with i will extend not an apology but now my brutal honesty this place sucks food is horrible and those that eat here must definitely have major problems with there palette!!!! Its like they let a 10 year old put random flavors together , In the words of Gordon Ramsey learn to cook you Muppet !

Tiny little hole in the wall producing some unexpectedly good bites. The empanadas were fine; wish I'd have had the time and appetite to sample the arepas. The Vassar Noodle Bowl was so good - the sauce was silky, spicy, and cooling all at once. There's like 5 tables with about 12 seats inside, so unless you don't mind eating at one of the three tables on the sidewalk, it's very likely that you'll have to carry your food home. I'll risk it; the sidewalk was fine.
