| - Game meats, Sausages AND beer?!? OOoohhh YEAAAHHH!! But please pronounce it correctly. It's "verst", not "worst" (drives me insane!).
Came here a while back, but still remember it like it was yesterday. Located in the hip and happening King St. West of downtown Toronto, it undoubtedly carries the loud and fun atmosphere... especially on a Friday night. It was packed and difficult to find a table. There is no host, and is a semi self-served restaurant, where you order at the counter/bar and a server will bring you the food and drinks. You can choose to sit at the high tops by the window, or at the long communal tables in the middle.
We just walked up to the glass meat fridge to take a look at all the different wursts this place has to offer. I was super excited! After a billion years of INdecision-making, I finally ordered at the counter beside the the sausages:
Kangaroo Wurst w/ fine herbs: $9 (3/5 stars)
It was very good. I got a side order of the curry wurst sauce, which is a tomato curry for dipping ($4). The sauce itself was mediocre- very strong tomato flavour with a hint of curry powder maybe. Definitely way over-priced especially if you consider that it came in a small little plastic container.
Venison w/ dijon & red pepper: $9 (3/5 stars)
Had this on a toasted bun. It tasted good, but it needed some kind of sauce.. like mayo or ketchup or something. Because you share the condiments with other people at the table, we had to go to the next table to grab some. Nothing too spectacular.
Duck Fat Fries: $6.50 (5/5 stars)
This was probably the hi-bite of the night! Who doesn't like duck fat anything?!?! But what made this ultra delicious was the side of maple rosemary dipping sauce ($1) to go with it! It's 4am, and I'm craving fries now...Mmmm. I wish the sauce came in a bigger portion though.
Beers: (5/5 stars)
There was a German beer that I really wanted to try (forgot the name), but they didn't have it! But overall, a pretty decent selection.
Service: (2/5 stars)
I understand it was busy, but they did nothing but bring me food and checked up on us once (sort of). I wanted to ask for something, and they just whizzed by giving me no chance.
This place was very loud on a Friday night, and was almost impossible to have a conversation across the table without having to yell. Most of the people here are for the beer and grabbing a bite, as oppose to having dinner. I've also noticed one of the giant tables were reserved for a party coming in, so I guess they do resos.
The food is okay, but I'd definitley come back. I'm dying to try to duck sausage, which is supposedly the best one! Which one is your fave?
