This is one a few Bier Markt's in the Toronto core. I probably would have opted for 2.5 if available as a score -- but will go high rather than low.
Good location. Very accessible by transit. Street parking or private Lot parking (paid) is your only choice if driving.
Located in a basement of a building at King and Portland. They do have a patio on the Portland side.
Four of us went, and things we enjoyed were:
- the Markt Burger (thumbs up)
- Mussels and Frites (mussels were a bit small and the frites not up to the usual)
- Duck wings appetizer (awesome -- fabulous flavour and loved the dry rub!)
- schnitzel (chicken or pork -- we had pork - and you could have a variety of sauces/gravies --- was great
Pretty nice meal --- not inexpensive with drinks.
Would definitely go back but pass on the mussels.
Server was nice, but she did mess up a couple of things on the order which she corrected. Soup came without a spoon and we waited for more than 5 minutes to see someone we could ask. Guess it was during a non-busy period.
Anyway -- been at the one at Don Mills and enjoyed. Will probably stick with that location in future -- but you just never know.
