Customer Reviews

Unusual style of donuts but they are made fresh to order. Warm and pillow soft donuts that are very rich in taste. I consider them very sweet so be mindful of sugar content and no more than two donuts is enough. This location is very small so seating can be tight or nonexistent on a busy day; best to get orders to go. Customer service is top notch because the workers are very polite, pleasant and attentive.

I love this location. It reminds me being back in South Korea. The customer service is great and the corn dogs are amazing. The options for desert is great. Having one corn dog will fill you up so choose one wisely haha. I usually get the corn dog with beef and cheese. There are tables and seats and I was able to get one. I been to other locations like the one in NJ. However, whenever I am in Queens, Forest Hills location is it for me.

Ugly Donuts and Corn Dogs in Forest Hills is a great spot to hang out and grab some unique Korean-inspired corn dogs. I tried the Dynamite, which was described as spicy, and it definitely had a kick! But it wasn't overwhelmingly hot; it had a nice sweetness to it as well. Their corn dogs are definitely bigger than your average corn dog, so you feel like you're getting your money's worth. Plus, they have a huge selection of drinks and desserts to choose from, making it a perfect place for a treat.

It?s a very fattening spot? delivers exactly as promised: ugly donuts and corn dogs. Same taste as every other corn dog place I?ve been to in the US. Very tasty and high calorie, many options for the filling (I like the half mozzarella one) and toppings. The Nutella banana donut was very sweet and messy - I took 2 bites and declared completion. After only 3/4 of a corn dog and 2 bites of the donut I was overly full. Not a great choice for an afternoon light snack, but maybe one for a full lunch

Wonderful unique experience. Ordered through a kiosk. While ordering you can customize to your preference on each order. I ordered their Premium Pizza Ugdog and their Mushroom. With their Midnight Lemonade and a Blueberry cream cheese donut to go. I was full by the time I snarfed down on my 2nd one. Pretty worth the wait and the staff were super friendly. The tables space was good. The place had a nice upbeat and chill vibe.

There is nothing at all ugly about these Korean corn dogs or donuts! Walking by this place piqued our interest and we just had to try it. The place is small and while there are a few tables and chairs to eat in, it seems most opt for take out. You can order ahead online, at the kiosk in the establishment or at the counter. All is made fresh upon ordering.

The donut was so delicious! I got it delivered as a little Thanksgiving treat and it came in no time and was so good! Sweet but not too sweet and the cream is perfection! I got the strawberry cream donut and it?s not disappoint! Been wanting to try this place for a while and so happy I did! Definitely will be back to get a corn dog and try other flavors of donuts!

This place is amazing! First off the place is really clean. Their corndogs, if ordered with cheese, have the perfect sausage to cheese ratio. (Sorry for getting so technical with food.) They taste amazing and the presentation was great. Their drinks like the passionfruit lemonade tastes great and it's made from real fruit. Their donuts taste amazing as well. Service was great. No compliants here. This is a great place.

The Korean Corn Dogs here are on another level. They?re soo many different varieties and flavors to choose from. They?re absolutely delicious and flavorful. Super cheesy too. I definitely need to come back and try more flavors.

Over the weekend, I passed by this place, and the brand name caught my attention. I love donuts! So I didn?t think twice about checking out the place to see their menu, and boy, was I delighted to see it. I ordered donuts (the Red Bean and the Nutella Banana) and smoothies (Mango Yogurt with jelly). Despite a little wait, it was worth it! The donuts were generously filled, warm, soft, and incredibly tasty. The smoothie was a little too tart for my taste, but overall, it was still enjoyable. I definitely r

The sweet donuts and drinks are delicious. Unfortunately, the derive is slow. They say it?s because everything is made fresh which is true. But I ca only go when I have time to spare.

One of my daughter?s bucket list items before traveling internationally for school was to have an ugly donut before she leaves. For some reason, she loves this donut. Raves about every time she has it. She doesn?t even like sweets or anything with a filling but some how makes an exception for ugly donut. As soon as she woke up this morning she ventured out to buy her last ugly donut for the next 4 months and in her ugly donut world, a major catastrophe occurs. The CREDIT CARD READER IS NOT WORKING. Yes, ex

Cute little place with great boba tea and delicious donuts. I haven't tried the corn dogs yet, but they also look amazing. One of the unique things about this place is their specialized whipped cream dipping sauce for their donuts. The donuts have the consistency of fried dough, which I think is a plus!

I ordered at kiosk and I received cold doughnuts? the dough was terrible. It was not fresh at all.

Checked out this new neighborhood spot that serves Korean street food: rice corn dogs and twisted donuts. The interior has a cute aesthetic with artwork and neon sign. I came for the corn dogs. They have several different options you can try. I went with the mozza mix with beef sausage and mozzarella cheese. I added the crispy potato topping. They have several sauce options. I chose spicy mayo and asked the staff to recommend another one to me. They said the cheddar cheese sauce pairs well with what I orde

Perfect. PERFECT. I love corn dogs? I?ve always loved corn dogs. There?s something so incredibly nostalgic about them. I don?t know if it?s because of that once scene in The Princess Diaries where Anne Hathaway and Julia Andrew?s bond over the queens first time trying a corndog or maybe because their just magically delicious. Either way, this place does them right. It?s not a traditional take on a corn dog because the batter is made with mochi dough but it?s almost.. better? If I was high?? and got my hands

We love Korean corn dogs so much and we were so excited to see Ugly Donuts & Corn Dogs opening up their locations in Forest Hills. The decor is bright and clean but narrow-spaced with limited indoor seating. They use kiosk to take all orders and call numbers to pick up the food. We got a take-out order on a Friday night and the wait wasn?t too bad. We had their Scallion Donut w Cinnamon Sugar and La Mexicana Ugdog. It?s decent with a reasonable price and portion. We love our savory donut, which was puffy

Wow!! This place rocks. People are so nice. We got an original u-dog with panko crust. The dipping sauces were awesome. My favorite were spicy mayo and shiracha. We also tried the Blueberry donut with fresh homemade whipped cream. So good and fresh!! All made to order. Oh, the drink was strawberry lemon drink-ade. With fresh fruit! Highly recommend for a nice treat!!

what a cute shop!! Good selection of Korean hot dogs, bubble teas and fruit drinks and one of my favorite Korean desserts, their ugly donut!!! Everything is freshly made to order too, so guaranteed great quality every time! Omgosh, just noticed they expanded their menu and have filled donuts now!!! I love their blueberry flavor with black sesame whipped cream!! Welcome to the neighborhood!

DELICIOUS! Everything from the drinks, to the donuts, to the hot dogs, tasted amazing. This was my first time here and as an fyi, definitely expect a bit of a wait. Food is made fresh upon order so you definitely have to order ahead of time. I waited a little over 30 min for my 3 donuts, hot dogs, and a drink but it was worth it. Workers were also very nice. Worth a try!

I cannot speak to the donuts due to the fact that I was told by the insolent staff (a scraggly young man with dark hair) that I ?have to use the kiosk.? His demeanor was flippant and I felt that I was being spoken down to. So, I politely left without making a purchase. If you?re looking for the human experience with a touch a sweetness, it CANNOT BE FOUND HERE!

The absolute best donut I ever tasted in my life!! They make it to order so you have to wait a little bit but it?s worth it!!!! Their bubble tea options are also wide ranging and delicious! I got the Dutch cocoa bubble tea and for the donut I got it filled with Nutella and banana. So good!!! Another time I tried the Nutella crunch bubble tea but that was too sweet.

The donut with dulce de leche filling was delicious. The dough was warm and chewy because it was made fresh and the filling was sweet but not overly sweet. Definately will be back to try other flavors.

took a photo of the packaging on a recent visit. Perfect for bringing over to a family or friendly gathering. ?? Been to a different location before, but this is our first time in Ugly Donuts - Forest Hills. Unlike their Jackson Heights branch, this place has comfortable seating, but no bathroom. It also has a nice ambiance to it, you can smell the donuts cooking as soon as you cross the threshold. The staff are courteous and nice too. For this visit, we ordered our favorite Jumbo Ugdog and a dozen ugly

The Nutella filled donuts are so good! Well worth the price. Especially loved the Nutella banana. The donuts are made so fresh for you.

The wait for these donuts were so worth it I had the Nutella and the fresh cream filled donuts those are a must have I look forward to trying more of the other flavors

A great spot for a refreshing drink and a quick bite! The blueberry-ade is cold, refreshing, and delightful. Not too sweet and has a nice flavor. The potato corn dog was great. Crispy and chewy potatoes with your choice of sauces. It was a blast to eat!

Amazing place. Love every single kind of their corn dogs. Amazing customer service..

This place is always great . They never miss , food is always delicious and made fresh as you order . Friendly staff and great tasting snacks

First time having Korean corn dogs and it was pretty good. We had the Mexican one with salsa, cheese, and jalape?os and the mozzeralla mix corn dog. Pretty good, clean space, and the service was good. Would try the plank crust next time as the plain wasn?t as crispy as I would have hoped but good flavor overall and reasonably priced. They?re bigger in person :)

I was hoping to visit after the first opening. This place did not disappoint at all. The corndogs were delicious, and they give you the option of removing the sugar If you don't want it. Staff was really friendly and helpful. Will definitely visit again soon. ?? ??

Great place to come in cool down. The strawberry ade with sparkling water was refreshing. Not too sweet, not too watery either. Tried the cheddar dog with panko. It was fresh and crunchy with a surprising sweetness. The ugnut...oh man. Cinnamon sugar with whipped cream. Nuff said.

The environment is FANTASTIC. They have a place where you can sit and eat, beautiful decorations on the walls, and a special area where you and your friends/family can take pictures. The customer service was great, and the staff was very friendly food was amazing the corndogs especially. I would 100 percent come back.

Amazing donuts and corn dogs. Always made fresh. I love these they are so good

A very unforgettable experience. Love everything about this place. Food is always fresh and really good! Love the hot dogs. Will recommend friends to come and taste

This place opened up recently and I?ve been dying to try it & im so glad I did!! Their corn dogs are big and crunchy, plus you get to choose from a variety of toppings and filling! You can get a hot dog or a cheese flavor on a stick, topped off with delicious sauce (I got the spicy mayo). Highly recommend + the shop itself is a cute photo op!!

Their scallion donut is phenomenal. If you like scallion pancake, you will love this donut! Their corn dog is good too, just like the ones from other corn dog places. They provide a good selection of sauce, I personally think spicy Mayo goes the best with the corn dog. I?ll definitely be back for the scallion donut!

Walking out of the store?the smell of the cinnamon on the freshly made ugnuts was intoxicating. The ugnuts are made to order, so be prepared to wait a bit. We matched our ugnuts with cinnamon sugar and the matcha whipped cream? the combo was so good. Would definitely go again.

Ordered a kids corn dog and strawberry and cream donut to take home. I found mold on the strawberry when I was eating it at home. ?? I hope I won't get sick from this donut.

Someone recommended this place to me and I don't regret going!! I got the nutella strawberry filled doughnut and it was to die for!! great customer service

This spot has the best Korean Corn dogs in NY. I have tried most of other brands and theirs is the best without?question

It was mad crowded. I think this place is a little over hyped. But the food was decent nothing crazy. Probably won?t visit again since I don?t think it?s worth thy hype and wait.

This was my first visit to Ugly Donuts & Corn Dogs and it was amazing! I tried the corn dog with mozzarella cheese and the filled donut with Nutella? both amazing! Came back twice in one day for more! Staff was very friendly as well!

Ordered the jalape?o + cheese dog with potato breading. So amazed to find that it was cheese then dog then cheese then dog!!! glad there is a Korean corn dog in the forest hills area :)

Awesome donuts, mozdogs, and bubble tea. Quality of food is always great. I love the efficiency of their ordering system and the food is served in a good amount of time considering it's made fresh to order.

Great ambience! Fast service and very friendly staff. The ugdogs are better than K-dog by far!

Pretty good Korean style corndog! Super long line (waited about 30 minutes), hopefully that gets better because I?d like to try more things.

Was there recently for a fundraiser event for our school. The corn dog was amazing! Worth the wait as everything is made fresh. Appreciated how the staff was able to handle how overwhelming the crowds were. You can order ahead online to save some time and pick up in store.

Made to order fresh pastries and food, made with love and time ?? pro tip: order ahead online to cut down or eliminate any wait. You won?t regret giving these delicious donuts and corn dogs a chance! Crispy and crunchy on the outside, delicious, savory, sweet on the inside. A great staple of the Forest Hills community and conveniently located on Austin St near good shopping and further good eats.

My first time trying Ugly Donuts and I thoroughly enjoyed it. The different cream cheese fillings were so good and the donuts themselves, I can eat 10 of them?? they're so soft and tasty. I'm hooked

Their corn dog is so good and I?m so obsessed. Even the most basic one without any special toppings still taste super good! They fry after you order so you can always get a fresh one.

I had to order something quick for lunch so out in an order for pick up. The food was ready when I got there and the folks were so welcoming and kind. I ate my corndogs and donuts and had to return for dinner for the kids. The boxes they come in help to make a dinner on the go nice and clean. The corndogs were so tasty, I had to try the Mexican and Korean ones next. Did not disappoint. Thank you.

Had fun trying the mozza mix corndog and cream cheese donut. Good service and delicious food! It's a must have.

Definitely recommend the donuts. 10 out of 10. I have not tried the corn dog but I think it would be good after having the donuts.

Came here for dessert and the place looks clean and welcoming. Highly recommend!!

Love love the fresh steaming hot donuts! They are crispy, fluffy, chewy and just melts in your mouth! They are made to order but it is definately worth the wait! Absolutely delicious. The corn dogs here are so flavorful, no smell of flours and the beef sausage they use here is so juicy and good!!! 200% Recommend.

The corndogs was amazing and the passion fruit bobba tasted so good!!

I just moved to the area and finally tried the corn dogs and ugnuts. They exceeded my expectations and were AMAZING.

Ugly Donuts and Corndogs partnered with the PA of PS144 for a Restaurant Night fundraiser. They are amazing partners - extremely generous, easy to work with, and very friendly. I ordered corn dogs and bubble tea - the corn dogs were delicious and the bubble tea was among the best my family and I have ever tasted (the bubble tea was a pleasant surprise as I assumed their specialties would just be corndogs and donuts!). They were very busy that night, yet service was still done with a smile. Can't wait to

Made to order which is great but it tastes like a funnel cake. Not impressed by the donuts. Would try other stuff next time.

Hot, fresh, delicious! Not your typical American corn dog. The batter is more chewy doughy, good in its own way, but be advised it doesn't have the "corn" flavor. Doughnut was very similar texture. Crunchy and warm! A tuch greasy, but overall great!

I went here for my birthday best kdogs I?ve ever had

Edit: one year later the donut was awful. Everything about it changed. No longer has that nice chewy bite to it, the red bean paste was way too thick for the thin donut, and the paste was ice cold in the middle. What a difference a year makes. Amazing donut! Friendly and clean shop. I had the red bean paste donut and inhaled it. Will definitely be back to try the cheddar hot dog.

The staff here is so nice and attentive. The corn dog was so fresh and tasty. Definitely a 10/10 must check out!! I for sure will come back every time when I?m in the neighborhood

Such an amazing experience!!!! The employees were very kind I would most definitely come back

I have had Ugly Donuts at least 30 times in the past 5 months. It is an extraordinary culinary experience that left a lasting impression. if you have never had an ugdog, you?re missing out. I swear every time i bite into an ugdog, I am in heaven. From the moment I walked in, I was greeted with a warm and inviting ambiance that set the stage for an unforgettable meal. Also! you must eat it there while it?s hot. The menu at ugly donuts is a testament to creativity and innovation. Each ugdog special they had

Love it here! The best corn dogs and donuts ever? favorite is red bean and kids love the Nutella filled donut. Matcha homemade vegan cream is amazingggg! Staff is very friendly & take their time to get every order correct and tasty!!!

Yummy donuts and drinks! All the ugnuts are freshly made. Staff is friendly and love the self order kiosks

k dogs were very good!! and staff was super nice and friendly. will be back!

Worst bubble tea I have ever had!!! It is made from a powder mix. They cannot change the sweetness level or anything else since it is a premade powder. They serve it in a styrofoam coffee cup even if you are dining there. How about something more upscale like a coffee mug or glass mug? Unless they did that to be consistent with the name of their store "UGLY" - yes it was truly ugly. Wasted $7 for something that tasted terrible. Lady working at front counter on 12/23/23 didn't even speak English (only Spanis

A favorite in my household! We always get kdogs from here whenever we can. The ugnuts in cinnamon sugar are our favorites and we've constantly been trying the different donut flavors with every visit. We especially love how the mixed kdog changes from mozzarella to hotdog with every bite rather than just being half-half!

Amazing donuts. Something everybody must try!

So yummy! Cute location. Friendly, helpful staff. Great place for a shopping break on Austin Street.

Had a cheddar mix corn dog and the lemonade. Both were great!

One of the best Korean corn dog places in my opinion. Had a great variety of items that were unique and special. Only problem was the wait time of the place. Takes a while to make a couple of things.

Very tast Donot, was very soft and rich in flavor. Will visit again to try different flavors

Thanks for having mozza ugly dog for costumers that don?t eat meat I love it , everyone that works here is so nice and friendly ????

Food is horrible . Hot dogs taste days old and the bread they fried it in over dose in old grease.

Delicious food and well decorated place. Will come again and invite friends!

I literally visited all other Korean Corn dog brands. And I had a conclusion I will stick with this. They are always the best flavour and service. No question. 100%?recommended

I went for the first time and I was so excited I got the stuffed blueberry walnut nut donut I waiting like 15/20 min.. I know nothing about making donuts but I know about eating them and the inside should not be cold. Very disappointing

Best nutella donut I?ve ever tried!!! ??

Korean style street food, sure! Perhaps it is worth the wait knowing your food is fresh and hot. It takes 7-10 mins to get your food even if it?s empty inside so be aware. I tried the combo dog with mozzarella & beef inside. The panko crust covered in sugar turned me off but the bite wasn?t too bad. I?m still not in to the sugar on my entr?e but it went down okay. It was fresh and filling. The uggnut wasn?t bad either. Fresh, hot, and doughy like a zeppole almost. I tried the plain since I?m not in to filli

I love ugly donuts. I been to the one in flushing and now they have a location in forest hills. Just amazing. Never fails to satisfy my craving for a korean street food. Keep up the good work.

I?ve been here a number of times now? really glad that this spot is here. Staff is nice, and since the food is made to order, it?s always hot and fresh. Their bubble tea is also excellent with lots of fun flavors, especially compared to other places with similar prices around forest hills.

First time here; a little hesitant at first, however Ugly Donutes & Corn Dogs Forest Hills exceeded my expectations. The sparkling fruit ade was refreshing and light. The classic panko corn dog was crispy and delicious. The staff is very friendly and helpful and I highly ecomend this place to anyone in the neighborhood.

Tried the donuts and the corn dog and they're a good filling snack. Just keep in mind they make each item from scratch - which means donuts are going to take some time to fry up (10+mins). I wish I got the heads up that there'll be a wait because usually at a donut shop fresh batches are already made. Aside from that, these corn dogs use glutinous flour to give it a chewy texture and I liked that.

I saw the staff try the best they could however wait was about 20 minutes too long and cross contamination everywhere. Everyone makes the food and touches the money, the doors, and themselves as well. Also no hair nets, the hats don?t do very much when their hair is falling out of it. The food was not worth the wait and the only thing that made the Mexican dog ?Mexican? was the salsa. The bubble tea is basically a milkshake and doesn?t look or taste anything like what you might have wanted. Save your time a
