Great selection of beer and wurst (as advertised!). Limited options beyond that. Tried four different brats and loved a couple and found a couple to be a little meh. Would definitely come back to try again!

Wurstkuche offers a selection of meats and there's also vegetarian options as well. I tried the vegan meat and it was pretty good! Loved the sauces and toppings that they offer and their fries are delicious and thick. I also ordered a belgian beer called Fruli and it tastes like straight strawberry juice--right up my alley! There's plenty of seating and it has a chill vibe to it.

Best place for a beer and hot dog. The patio at the back is very cute a night. Good variety of beers.

Great food, great beer, and great atsmosphere. the building is unassuming but the outdoor patio and indoor seating is worth it. kind of pricey but what can you expect in socal. worth it

I'd had dinner plans and only planned to stop by for a snack, but one bite of wurstkuche was all I needed to cancel my dinner plans. We tried the duck & bacon with jalapeno bratwurst. It's listed under the "exotic" menu if you're looking for it. The sausage was succulent and flavorful as advertised. The star of the show for me though were the fries. They were a solid thickness--somewhere between a fast food fry and a steak fry, and extremely crispy. Admittedly, they could have used just a tad less salt, but other than that, they were perfect. I could have inhaled those fries in a heartbeat. I'm not one who often craves Bavarian food, but if I'm ever in the mood for a solid brat & fries, Wurstkuche is the spot!!

I get a "hipster-cool" vibe on the entrance. Once you pass the ordering process, feels like you are entering a fun "haus". Definitely a beer garden/beer house feel, which is obvious. Enough of the ambiance, the hot dogs (keeping it simple) were good. I got the pheasant and Louisiana hot link. They definitely specialize in putting all the effort in making sure their meats taste great, which they do a good job of doing. But staying true to the German tradition, just a wiener and a bun. Bread was ok, but do not expect anything special. You can add some sauerkraut or onions when paling your order, throw on some ketchup or various types of mustard when you find your table, but nothing spectacular. Good selection of beers. ***Parking straight up sucks. Expect to drive a few rounds or just park further away & walk. If you're craving some exotic meats in a link form, good spot to get your fix .

Oh man, Wurstküche? This place is legit the heart of the LA food scene if you're all about that sausage game. It's like, you step into this spot, and bam, you're hit with this vibe that's so LA—chill yet totally on-point with its industrial chic look. Think exposed brick, open space, and an energy that says, "Yeah, we know we're cool."Their sausage lineup is off the charts. You've got your classics, sure, but then they hit you with the wild stuff like rattlesnake and rabbit. It's like they're daring you to try something new, and trust me, you wanna take that dare. Every bite is an adventure, and you're there for it, savoring flavors you didn't even know you needed in your life.But yo, it's not just about the food. The beer selection is a whole other level of awesome. We're talking rare finds and local brews that make you proud to call LA home. It's the kind of place where you can chill with a group of friends, knock back a few, and just soak in that SoCal sun (even if you're inside).The crew at Wurstküche? They're the real MVPs. Friendly doesn't even cut it—they're like your foodie guides in this journey of taste. They keep things rolling smoothly, even when the place is packed, which it often is because, duh, it's amazing.So here's the deal: Wurstküche is a slice of what makes LA's food scene so dope. It's about taking risks, mixing the traditional with the totally unexpected, and always, always keeping it cool. If you haven't been, you're missing out. It's a five-star ride in the city of stars, no doubt.

Solid hot dog and belgian fry restaurant with a good selection of sausages. You order at the entrance and then find a seat yourself. Interior is spacious and clean with a nice outdoors area. Great spot for a casual get together with friends. We ordered the Louisiana hot link sausage, the rattlesnake/rabbit sausage, the bratwurst, and a large side of fries. Bratwurst and rattlesnake/rabbit was good but lacking a little bit of flavor/salt. Rattlesnake/rabbit had a much more mild flavor than I was expecting and I probably would not get it again. Louisiana hot link was the best out of the three we ordered. The fries are stupid addicting and perfectly cooked - probably some of the best fries I've had in LA.
Such a hole in the wall and amazing food. All the sausages we had were very good. Will definitely be coming back!

To be FRANK, Wutstkuche is my favorite hotdog spot, and warrants 100% of the hype! I've been coming here since I was an undergraduate at UCLA, and nothing beats their high quality, housemade German sausages. My favorites are the chicken apple and mango jalapeño topped with onions and spicy peppers, but if you're an adventurous eater, they have sausages available in exotic flavors such as rattlesnake, pheasant, rabbit, and bison, to name a few. I would also highly recommend their fries, which are freshly cooked and literally fried to crispy perfection. They also have an extensive beer selection, although I'm not the biggest fan. Overall, a great beer garden to go out with friends and coworkers for a relaxing, laid back meal and high quality hot dogs!

This a 4.5+ but I can't grade as such. Food was good lot for sausage variety and some topping. Favorite part was the fries top 3 fries I've had. Also dig the beers served in their glassware. You place food order gluten get your seating. Family style seating. Would

TASTY. Excellent sausage (including several veggie options, woohoo!), impressive beer list (and plenty of other beverage options if you're not a beer person), and unexpectedly fantastic fries. Both the wood and steel dining hall and the outdoor area are lovely. Everyone working here is super nice, too. An all around great spot <3Vegetarian options: In a sausage house, 3 veggie options is amazing!

It’s good but not a knock out. The fries are delicious but the sausages can be a bit on the bland side. Theres plenty of sauces to choose from to enhance flavor but the sausage itself doesn’t really carry the entire meal.
