Wurstkuche - Los Angeles

This is a great place with so many choices you want to try more than one - exactly what we did when I took a large group there. They were very accomodating and certainly had tables big enough. They have regular sausages from polishing, italian, bratwurst to exotic with alligator, duck, mango, rabbit, rattlesnake. The prices are about $6-$8 for the sausages. They also have frits in 2 different sizes with many different sauces. Depending on the size of the frits you can get 1 or 2 diving sauce. Homemade ketchups, bleu cheese with bacon and nut (my favorite), various aiolis. Beer selection? Many foreign and domestic with knowledgeable bartenders that let you taste until you find what you want. Just a fun place

I am the sausage queen. Laugh all you want but if you ask any of my friends, they will tell you that I am the sausage queen. It all started one spring break when I took two of my friends and we went to Germany. All I had every day for lunch was a sausage from one of the sausage stands that littered the city of Hamburg. Currywurst was my favorite and I knew I couldn’t get this once I was back in the US of A so I decided to load up on this great concoction. FFWD to today. I am still looking for my curry wurst but for the other stuff,I can go to Wurstkuche. Everything I’ve had here was amazing, even the weird reptilian ones! Last night I had the duck bacon and before that I can vouch for the hot links and the red pepper and corn. I can’t wait to try everything on their menu. I had a bite of the alligator, which was… interesting. but the best thing here is the Belgian fries with truffle oil. trust me and get this. even if you eat two sausages, get a small truffle fries. omg it’s so good. everything goes down well with some Belgian beer. sausage, truffle fries, and beer. can life get any better?

I absolutely loved the fries, and I would definitely return just for them. The hot dog was decent, but honestly, it's not better than a Costco hot dog. At least you can say you tried something unique like alligator or snake, which is a fun talking point. The soda options are all fancy and a bit annoying, and the seating leaves much to be desired. You're either competing for a small table or sharing a picnic table with strangers. The wait for our order was far too long, reminding me of the Soup Nazi from Seinfeld; they definitely need either more staff or a better system. Overall, it's not a bad place, but the food isn't worth the hassle of the crowd.

Nestled in the burgeoning industrial district of Los Angeles, Sausage Kitchen offers some truly adventurous sausages made from exotic meats. The menu features intriguing options like buffalo, alligator, duck, and rattlesnake, which, surprisingly, feel perfectly at home on the menu. One standout aspect of the experience was the variety of mouthwatering mustards on offer. I typically don't care for mustard, but I found the whole grain and Dijon options to be exceptional, complementing the sausages perfectly. Alongside the mustards, there are several delicious dipping sauces for their fantastic fries, which are simply divine—crispy and flavorful, with no further embellishment needed. Additionally, Sausage Kitchen boasts an impressive selection of Belgian and German beers, as well as Hahn on tap. I tried the duck bacon and jalapeño sausage, which was enjoyable, though I found it tasted even better with the mustard, though that may just be my personal preference. My friend ordered the kielbasa sausage, which I thought was even tastier than mine. The fries were fantastic, especially with the accompanying sauces, and they also offer a nice selection of bottled sodas. It’s worth noting that they plan to extend their hours beyond midnight for the late-night crowd after clubbing. With plenty of street parking available, Sausage Kitchen is conveniently located in downtown Los Angeles, making it a great spot to unwind.

I had a great first impression of the restaurant. As soon as I walked in, a man welcomed us and handed us a menu. My sister and I were intrigued by the "Exotics" section. I ordered the large fries and the Pesto Mayo for $6, while my sister opted for the crocodile and pork sausage for $8. The sausage had a thick coating, but it was soft and tender when bitten into. The spices were enjoyable; they added flavor without being overly spicy. The fries were delicious, paired nicely with the simple Pesto dip. I also loved the strawberry-flavored beer—it was perfectly balanced, neither too sweet nor too bitter, reminiscent of fresh strawberries.
