We stopped in Springfield on our road trip and found this place for a burger and it was very yummy…read more The only downside is they only offer HUGE burgers but we were able to share so it worked out for us. I also had one of their beers but can't remember which one, maybe it was blueberry?? It was good but a little sweet so wish I had gotten a smaller one. The fries were also great, obviously home made. I will say we sat outside because it was a gorgeous day but you can't walk back in the side door so you have to walk around to the front every time which was odd and inconvenient.

Burger Bar was very tasty. CARRIE WAS THE BEST Waitress! She was on it! For example, when she…read moreheard the ketchup 'tap' on table, she brought one right over! Best service I've had in a while even on July 4th evening service. We had the Cali burger and Black n Bleu burger. All ingredients were fresh and pretty. Even the water tasted good. We do recommend the garlic cheese curds and salsa. (which was not spicy but tasty.) My guy enjoyed the horseradish cheddar cheese spread, which also came recommended by Carrie. Fun place, fun crowd, not loud and great service.

I'm shocked that this is the first time I've ever been here…read more The Brussels were pretty good. I wound have liked them to be more sautéed but that's a personal preference. The flavor was very good. The seasonal salad was a house salad with strawberries, cucumbers, greens, red onions, some sort of a sweet oat cluster, and a kiwi salad dressing. Very good salad and I'm a little sad to k ow this isn't a regular salad they always carry. The old fashion drink was very good not the best I've ever had but very good. We had a lady server with reddish color hair that was absolutely amazing and so friendly. The ambience was very welcoming and comfortable.

I had a great Friday noon lunch at Obed and Issac's. That flatbread with honey, goat (cheese), and…read morebacon was AMAZING and the bartender was right that it's the best thing on the menu. The staff was on top of everything, just the right amount of attention, and the bar area has amazing space (the plane up in the recesses of the ceiling is a sight to behold) and feels so welcoming. It was a little hot to me for the patio but others did not agree (they were no doubt Northerners who need the sun but this Southerner has had enough this year) and it was nearly full. The beer and cider was flowing (I tried the Brown Ale and was delighted) and everyone was having a perfect end-of-week celebration.

Ask for Tanja to be your server. She was awesome!!! We were excited to try Ugly Restaurant, as we…read morelove Turkish food. These folks did not disappoint. Tanja brought us some pita bread and carrot salad to start. That was complementary. We had a couple of cocktails from the bar, which were very good. We next had the Cigar Borek, which were little cheese rolls with a spicy tomato dip that was outstanding! We then ordered the beef doner wrap, which was just delicious! The beef they use for this is really tender and delicious. We cannot wait to return to this lovely Ugly Restaurant. :)

One of the reasons I love Mediterranean food is its use of spices and infused flavors. A complimentary carrot salad mixed with yogurt was served with warm pita bread. This was not good, frankly, and was the start of what would end up being an underwhelming experience. I ordered the mixed sampler platter for an appetizer. The only thing worth eating was the falafel and the cigar borek (fried breaded cheese). My entrée was the chicken shish kabobs that were accompanied by rice, a small chargrilled tomato, a chargrilled pepper and an onion salad. The chicken lack any kind of seasoning. Even salt would've help. This was probably the most bland Mediterranean food I've ever experienced. The presentation was grade A but the lack of flavor resulted in a Grade C. Even the baklava was bland. For $60 (including tip) I could've had a much more fulfilling meal.

Shit experience. Staff has no class…read more I was outside on the patio on a hot day with some friends and my dog. I ordered food and told the guy I'd be outside, which he responded he'd be out to bring it to me. Time passes. Neighboring tables are getting big orders delivered (people who got there after me). Eventually my friends leave and my elderly dog is burning up on the patio (The neighboring bar were the only ones who offered him a dog bowl). By the time half of our table leaves we go in to check on the food. They say it's coming... we check on the food again. They say it will be right up. It was not. I ask for a refund, the guy says "it's done, do you still want it?". I sigh and say yes. Five more minutes pass... I settle on my refund from a woman with a shitty attitude. No apology, no nothing. Not worth the visit.

Review Visit: September 27th, 2016…read more I have been to many ice cream shacks/burger and let me tell you... This may have been one of the best burgers I have ever had. It easily places Top 5 for me. Maybe even Top 3! I grabbed a simple burger with the usual toppings and it was amazing. They are thin patties a la Steak N Shake, but they taste 100x better. For $2 for a simple burger... you really can do no better. I grabbed a small strawberry ice cream and that was pretty great, too! But why not a perfect 5? Well, the cashier was great at taking the order, but the professionalism of the staff behind the counter was a bit immature. Maybe I am just getting old.... They also have quite a few Decatur locations, one in Pawnee, and one in Mt. Zion you can also visit, if you are never in Springfield, IL.

They need to improve on everything. It's the dirtiest and most expensive Krekel's locations out of…read moreall of them. Place needs dipped in a vat of sanitizer and a paint job. The owner is obviously checked out because the place is a wreck and disgusting. Can't afford even to paint the picnic tables I guess. Food isn't great either and takes forever. Used to have a manager who worked here for years and the food was better. Since he has left and the owner is there, place is a mess. Burgers aren't the same anymore and again paying way more than any other location by far and their rent is no way more than other locations like in Forsyth! Btw, Forsyth is the best location for all aspects- clean, food is always good and the staff is amazing! Worst Krekel's out of all of them.
