Ugly Restaurant and Bar

Delicious food! The Beef Guvec was fantastic! What a great mix of flavors that complement each other so well! The Iskender Doner was also very tasty!

Our server was very attentive and friendly. A must try in Springfield!

We stopped on a whim, just sick of the same old choices. My wife and I each ordered a kabob and according to some of the lower ratings we expected to leave hungry. This was not the case, we were stuffed and took the equivalent of another meal home. The meat was cooked perfectly and was full of flavor. Pricing was good considering the quality and quantity of the food. This was a nice surprise and we will be back!

Ugly this place is NOT! Here's the only question I have about this fabulous establishment: Why. The heck. Are the lines not OUT THE DOOR? The food is... COMPLETELY. UNIFORMLY. ALWAYS fantastic. I cannot gush enough about the Guvec, beef and chicken. One's a little spicy one's a little less so; I never remember which is which but just ask the phenomenal waitress there and you CANNOT go wrong with either. The kebabs too are juicy and flavorful. The owners are kind and the restaurant has comfortable seating and you can literally park right in front and stroll in.

The bread you get at the beginning and the little dip is FANTASTIC. I was in town from New York/New Jersey for just a couple of days and having eaten here once I made a point of coming back: gotta get both Guvecs. And the lamb chops!! If I lived anywhere nearby I would eat here a MINIMUM of twice a week. Everything ordered from there was majorly well-made, delicious and worth any penny that you spend. This is by far and away the BEST food in the area and the lovely person that we had - I cannot believe I'm blanking on her name - as a wait person was just sweet as sugar and charming. Seriously. Give. This. Place. A try! This is NOT an "okay" restaurant: it is DESTINATION DELICIOUS.

This is a Springfield hidden gem. The food was delicious. We didnt leave anything behind. We couldnt tell out of the 4 meats which one was the favorite Staff were extremely helpful and make the experience even better. The restaurant wasnt too busy. A plus is the beer is only $4 and they have a nice wine selection as well.

Well the Title says Ugly but there's nothing ugly about it! This restaurant and bar is bringing alternative dining to Springfield. Springfield has been known for its hamburgers, horse shoes, hot dogs and steaks but with places like this...grown ups can dine out and feel like they've taken a vacation across the ocean.

This experience was an unexpected one. While I've seen the Ugly Restaurant and Grill in my Google searches recently, I hadn't actually seen it and I couldn't visualize the location. But it's in the same strip mall with Jersey Mike's and Small Cakes.

We walked in to a very modern setting that I'd describe as casual elegance. The environment is fairly quiet even though there are multiple TVs on the walls. The sign said seat yourself so we did though we were greeted right away.
Upon being seated we were brought a carrot salad and sliced pita bread to go with.

For lunch, we ordered the Turkish fries and a couple of items from the kids menu so that we could sample different options. The Doner came with a red onion salad that was absolutely delicious. The wrap itself was served warm and included the meat, lettuce tomato and pickles, with tomato based sauce. The pilaf was warm and quite a sizable portion for a kids order, a mildly seasoned mix of rice, chicken and chick peas.

We'll this was a first but we will definitely be back to explore the spicy side of things. I tell you this the food and the service are equally well served. Thanks to the team at the Ugly Restaurant and Grill, a Turkish Grill.

This is a newly opened restaurant in town. Glad to give it a try in its first month! I ordered Cigar borek and beef guvec. Food was quite delicious. The Cigar borek was stuffed with a generous amount of Turkish white cheese. The guvec dish was even better. It was basically small beef chunks cooked in tomato sauce, with onions tomatoes and mushrooms. The beef was tender and the sauce was very thick and fresh--u can even see smashed tomato inside! It was served with some pita, rice pilaf and a side onion salad, so the portion size was HUGE!

The restaurant was so new that there are still places not open now, seems like there will be a gaming place in the future.

Service was okay but not very good. My waitress forgot to give me the side salad at first, and I did not know why but she was surprised that I did not want to have a to-go box, which made me a bit awkward. However as it is still new I give 5 stars hoping the business can grow and improve

Good food for take out. The steak was well cooked and tender. Definitely worth giving a try

Food is so delicious here and great service! Will definitely make a point to come back whenever I am in Springfield.

Very interesting restaurant, the ambiance was fine but they were still in the middle of construction and the location is not very large. The cuisine was outstanding, some of the best pita I've had and the hummus was outstanding.

Honestly, I ate too much hummus to fully enjoy my main meal - I was beyond full. My wife and friend enjoyed their meals and both said they would come back to try other dishes.

The service was great, no complaints there and for a first time experience in a newly opened restaurant I really can't complain!

My family and I went to the restaurant yesterday, and it was amazing! Not only was the food tasty and well-portioned, but the mimosas were dreamy and not too sweet. I also have two kids, one of them picky and one with food allergies, and the owner did a brilliant job of recommending items for them. For the first time, I had Turkish delight with my Turkish coffee, both wonderful. We will definitely be frequenting this restaurant when we visit, and I am going to tell my Union to have breakfast there. One more thing, the owner is a phenomenal host. I enjoyed talking to him. Great service, great food, affordable prices. I would give this place ten stars if I could.
