| - WVRST, pronounced verst, is a really cool giant indoor picnic hall. It was loud, fun, and boisterous. I love it.
The menu is simple and is everything sausage, but oh wait ... it's vegetarian friendly, too! Heaven. They have everything, 7 traditional beef/pork/lamb/veal ($6), 4 vegetarian ($7), 3 chicken/turkey ($7), and 9 game options including elk, duck, rabbit, and kangaroo ($9). The sausages are served either currywurst style, or on a roll. These are paired with over 30 beers ($6-$11), and regular French fries, or duck fat fries sprinkled with Maldon sea salt ($4.50-$6.50).
My party of 15 ordered everything. Everything! The standouts were the chorizo currywurst style, the guinea fowl, and the dirty duck fat fries (peppers, jalepenos, and sauteed onions topped with a WVRST special sauce). I shamelessly ate more than half the portion and would have ordered more if I wasn't trying to stay reasonably classy in front of my friends. I was impressed with the choice of not one, but two unique dipping sauces included with the fries, a homage to traditional Belgian style frites with mayo dip. The maple/rosemary and chipotle were our favourite, sweet with a hint of rosemary while the chiptole sauce was creamy, smokey with a hot bite.
Even though I don't drink, I know this place has an excellent beer menu. Just like any self-respecting Munich beer hall, WVRST is as much about food as it is about beer. From local Toronto brews like Augusta Ale and Denison's, to European and Japanese imports, the sixteen different craft brews on tap and seventeen different bottles and cans are sure to please Toronto's serious beer connoisseurs. Staff come by to check on drinks, but I still would have preferred a regular wait service set-up more typical of a beer hall. With sausages and fries being the only two menu options, the range of combination between meats, toppings, and dipping sauces is impressive along side the styled decor and friendly staff. And most importantly, they are some mighty fine sausages.
Hours - 11:30 - 11:00, Thursday until 12pm and Friday/Saturday until 1:00pm
Parking - street parking
Note: On weekends, it gets very busy, so if they reach capacity, you will still have to line up and wait, even if your group is already inside with reservations. If you have reservations, they can only guarantee entry if the entire party is present at the time of entry.
