Meatheaven GmbH in Bensheim

What David conjures up is absolutely top class! To all #Frankfurt and #Darmstadt steakhouses: This is the measure of all things! I have been a guest at #Meatheaven several times and am absolutely thrilled with the quality and preparation of the food. I don't know of any other steakhouse of this quality that's even remotely comparable. Why do I presume to judge? Because I have traveled a lot around the world and know many restaurants, even at star level. What can be enjoyed at the Christmas barbecue buffet, for example, is unrivaled.

We went to the Smoker Deluxe dinner with our son and daughter-in-law. Price per 89€. The food was absolutely worth the money. Excellent variations of meat, salads and sauces. If you are in the area, you should book a meal. Absolutely top and recommended. We would love to come back.

We had the smoker buffet Everything tasted great All in all a successful evening Gladly again

A unique experience not to be missed! Here meat is presented at the highest level and you also learn. An experience that I can recommend to every meat lover. Thank you for the unique memories <3

We were totally pleasantly surprised at the Wagyu Madness event. The service, the ambience and the menu were first class. The concert of the evening was super harmonious. We were warmly welcomed, served and pampered. The quality of the food is the best quality. We really felt like we were in the Meatheaven

It was a really great buffet experience with amazing smoked meat. We booked in July so we could be there in October. Was completely booked again. But really great.

Were there for a steak tasting. Unreservedly recommended. Great team, great food and very interesting information on the topic. Thanks for the great evening!

I was there as part of a company event! Important: Meatheaven is exclusively an event location, not a public restaurant! The location is very tastefully and high quality furnished! The steak tasting was great and presented with a lot of passion! Consideration for dietary restrictions was exemplary! Service very friendly and accommodating! Limited parking spaces directly in front of the building!

Was on September 14th. to the smoker buffet there. It was simply a first-class experience. Great meat quality and you can just tell how much love he puts into his work. I can really only recommend it. The only drawback was the 120km journey home that I had to take on a full stomach 😉

We were here for the Smoker Deluxe...hosts were in a good mood as always. The food was of course great. You don't get something like that on your plate every day. There was only the finest meat. And that's how it tasted. My favorite, as it has been for years, are the ribs and the brisket...Best I ever had. For 90 euros plus drinks, I think you can at least expect that. All the side dishes that came with it were also very good. Overall a great evening with friends and good food.. We'll be back👍 5*

Amazing event! Amazing food, great vibes and lots of laughs. You know everything was going to be amazing when you hear the passion the owner has for grilling and food. 100% recommend to anyone looking for something different when it comes to grilling and looking just to taste quality.

Meatheaven in Bensheim is truly a paradise for BBQ lovers. As soon as you enter the restaurant, you are greeted by a seductive scent of smoke and spices, which awakens your anticipation of the taste experience to come. The grill courses are super educational, the smoker buffet is an absolute gem and the Beef on Buns always serves the finest dishes. The smoky aromas and the perfect seasoning make every BBQ fan's heart beat faster. Meatheaven has truly earned its name - it serves BBQ at the highest level!

As the name suggests: Meatheaven ♥️

There's nothing more to say than "PERFECT"

We went as a group for steak tasting. David and his team were very good hosts. We were able to gain many interesting insights into the steak world. The steak selection was very interesting and we were able to taste and experience the differences between the individual steaks. The excellent accompaniments to the steaks were not to be neglected. Thank you for the lovely evening with you. See you next time.

The “Beef on Buns” event was also excellent, as was the steak course. Clear recommendation!

I was able to DJ an event at Meatheaven. As is always the case - we are allowed to eat.... People: Great! Mega food, and when I say mega I mean outstanding! David and his team have it! Rarely have we eaten such great food. In addition, the service is extremely nice, courteous and focused on the essentials. I look forward to being able to visit Meatheaven again in the future or meeting the team at an event. Best regards, MAX FLOW

Everything perfect. However, the quality also has its price.

Meat lovers paradise!!! Mega beautiful location furnished with a lot of style, very friendly staff and the food is excellent! Vegetarians also get their money's worth here. Both the meat and the side dishes are of very high quality and prepared with a lot of love. The atmosphere in the restaurant and outside in the beer garden is unique. You can go to this gourmet restaurant alone or in groups. To be on the safe side, a reservation is an advantage as they also like to hold events. You can also purchase cool t-shirts, your own spices, books and accessories for your own kitchen. Highly recommended, will go back soon as it's an absolute dream for me as a meat lover

No matter whether it's a smoker buffet or a burger workshop... the long journey is always worth it. For me the benchmark when it comes to BBQ and meat quality. Perfect service and a charismatic boss make it all complete.

On May 12th, 2024 I attended the “Low & Slow BBQ” grilling course with David Pietralla with some other nice like-minded people. What can I say... an impressive and unique experience. We had a good 7-8 hours to sink into the depths of the BBQ. David gave us an incredible amount of information about American BBQ and much more. The whole thing was accompanied by truly exquisite products, from Wagyu beef to black-feathered chicken, from sweet potatoes to seasonal Lampertheim asparagus. A lot of it was put on the different grill/smoke devices and was expertly processed into truly incredible delicacies. The Wagyu pastrami was “my” real taste revelation... Rated “Unforgettable”! Plus one or two cold beers and lots of smoke conversations. A really recommendable afternoon at Meatheaven. To David and the team...keep it up...I'm looking forward to the pop-up restaurant concept!

We went to the “low & slow” smoker course on May 12, 2024. Almost eight hours of incredibly good barbecue course in a nice atmosphere and a small group (12 people). Extremely interesting, very likeable and the ambience and quality are a straight 1.0. It couldn't be better and we definitely weren't there for the last time. Worth every penny...Thanks David

It's really unbelievable, we've been there 7 or 8 times and each time it was better than the last time, just great😊 The next thing we give each other is the Steak Tasting Mega 👌 Thanks again to the team with their lovely boss David Pietralla👌😊🙏 Until the next event 😍

Here the name says it all, delicious preparation, great taste and very attentive and nice staff

We had booked the BBQ grill course! And what can I say, just great! From the ambience to the product quality to the presentation, it's simply perfect all around! I can only warmly recommend this to anyone who wants to indulge in culinary delights and further their education at the same time! We definitely weren't here for the last time! Keep it up !

Mega Smoker Deluxe Buffet! Compliments to David, who has been doing this excellently for years and only brings the best to the grill/smoker. Keep it up and your guests will be happy✌️

My family and I really enjoyed the Smoker Deluxe Buffet. Always a highlight in terms of taste, from the extremely high quality, butter-tender variety of meat to the side dishes and dessert! Mr. Pietralla's pleasant, short introductory speech at the beginning of the event gives an idea of ​​how much passion and energy he must have put into the laborious preparation of the meat. In addition, the team greets you in a very friendly manner and serves you well, so that overall we always feel very comfortable there. :-)

Great location to enjoy at a high level for friends of grilled meat in the best quality, great selection of salads

We attended a smoking course there and were absolutely thrilled and spent a wonderful day there. A must for those who love to smoke!!!!

I've been going to Meatheaven (formerly known as Burggraf) regularly with family and friends for years. We love the Smoker Buffet Deluxe, but we also discovered the fine dining events last year. While the buffets are an "all you can eat" event in the upscale segment, in fine dining the menu is brought to the table and served in the elegant tasting room. Only first-class products are used at all events, as the boss attaches great importance to high-quality goods. David Pietralla will also explain their origin and processing on the evening of the event. Last year we went to "BBQ Prime Night", today we visited "Let's go Fishing" and will definitely come back. All 8 courses tasted great! My personal highlights were the Atlantic turbot roasted over beech charcoal with nut butter mashed potatoes and wild herb salad, as well as the black cod made from laurel smoke with North Sea crabs and spinach. But the crust with Ora King salmon and the dessert (which played very skilfully with different textures) were also great! The menu could also be ordered for pescatarians upon request; the Hereford tartare was replaced by beetroot tartare and was a poem. Although I'm not a fan of beetroot, I also found this dish extremely good. The Wagyu course was replaced with my all-time favorite - King Ora salmon from the plank - which was as good as I've come to expect. What I think is really great is that at all events the side dishes are not just decorative accessories, but are really thoughtfully prepared. I have remained loyal to Meatheaven as a guest, even though I no longer eat meat, and I always look forward to the side dishes at the Smoker Deluxe Buffet just as much as I look forward to the salmon. Thanks to my meat-eating companions, I know that the meat is just as good as it was at my first smoker buffet when I ate it myself. For them, of course, the meat is the absolute highlight and everyone I've been there with has raved about it and loved it. You can simply taste that David Pietralla has turned his passion into his profession and has a great team at his side. The service is also very attentive and courteous. I can only recommend that you pay a visit to Meatheaven! In any case, I'm already looking forward to the next event :)

An absolute experience. Very instructive, I definitely have some grilling experience, but I was able to learn a lot of new things. And David Pietrella does it just great and very humorously. And everyone was full too... great!

Eight of us had dinner there on February 24, 2024. We had booked the buffet gourmet meal for €89 per person. Drinks were charged extra. The introduction to the different types of meat was presented very well by the chef. There was more than enough of everything. There were a variety of side dishes. The service at the table was very friendly and very quick with the drinks being served. I was very satisfied with the food and the service. The whole team is very well coordinated and worked professionally. If there was anything to complain about, it would be the loud acoustics in the dining room. But it didn't detract from the overall impression. Thanks to the management and the great team.

We were there for the steak tasting. Highly Recommended! From the meat that is available, to the location, to the service.

We went to Smoke Deluxe this evening. The quality, taste and preparation are unique and the service is great. We'd love to come back. 😁

The name is program. If you like to eat very good meat, this is the right place for you. Great service and not at all crowded at the smoker buffet - complete professionals 😃

Enjoyed the burger event at Meathaven today. As always, delicious 😘

We went to the Detailers BBQ on September 30th. on site. A dream! Atmosphere 10/10 Food 12/10 Location 10/10 Pictures speak more than 1000 words. Worth every penny. Will definitely be back at the next Detailers BBQ and also with our better halves!

VERY NICE!!! THANK YOU FOR A NICE EVENING

The food was very tasty and worth every penny.

We were there for the barbecue special and awesome: The selection, the quality of the meat was great, only partially suitable for vegetarians. The side dishes were also great. The homemade sauces were also great, so you'll come back at any time. I can only recommend it to everyone

Very cool event The service was great and the quality of the meat was top notch Let's come back

Es war ein unvergesslicher Abend und eine traumhafte Reise in der Welt der Genüsse. Eine absolute Empfehlung für Steak und Whiskey Liebhaber.

Heute den Burgerkurs gemacht. Super Fleisch, tolle Tipps, leckere Burger, … mega Location. Wir kommen wieder👍

Wir haben hier einen Burger-Kochkurs besucht und waren wirklich sehr begeistert! Alleine schon bei der Anmeldung waren die Kontaktpersonen sehr freundlich und zuvorkommend. Der Kurs an sich war sehr lehrreich, interaktiv und unterhaltsam. Davids offene und professionelle Art die Kurse zu leiten hat sein großes Wissen und die vielen Informationen abgerundet. Super Fleisch Qualität und Ambiente. Rund um super, immer wieder gern!

Mega Event. Richtig geiles Essen. Top Präsentation !!!

Sehr schöne Lokation. Waren zum Steak Seminar da. Sehr zu empfehlen

Ich war jetzt schon das 2. mal im Rahmen einer externen Veranstaltung da und war immer hellauf begeistert. Ein super nettes Team welches mit Herzblut bei der Sache ist und es sich zur Aufgabe gemacht hat die Gäste voll und ganz zufrieden zu stellen. Die etwas weitere Anreise von ca 160km einfach habe ich zu keinem Zeitpunkt bereut. Ich werde auf jeden Fall bei kommenden Veranstaltungen wieder mit dabei sein.

wir waren nicht zum ersten Mal und ganz bestimmt nicht zum letzten Mal dort für ein Grillseminar. Diesmal ging es um Steaks. Man nimmt immer wieder einige Tipps mit für den eigenen Grill zu Hause. Die Qualität der dort vorgestellten Fleischprodukte ist einzigartig! Die ganze Veranstaltung ist perfekt organisiert. Der Veranstalter ist außerordentlich gut gelaunt! Das macht richtig Spaß!

Ein Abend im Mai 2023. Ein Geburtstagsgeschenk eines guten Freundes. Ein fabelhafter Event, von Anfang bis Ende! Ich sage nur ... "BBQ PRIME NIGHT" Wir waren früh dort und konnten die Location noch ohne Gäste bewundern und ein Schwätzchen mit dem Inhaber halten während er und sein Team in den Vorbereitungen waren. Der offene Raum mit der Showküche, die Bar hinter den "Metzger-Türen" und die vielen großen und kleinen Details ließen uns staunen und genießen. Die überdurchschnittlich offene Art von David Pietralla und dem gesamten Team hat es tatsächlich zu einer familiären Atmosphäre aufblühen lassen. Wir sind vorne an der Küche gestanden und haben während den Vorbereitungen fragen stellen können die uns alle mehr als beantwortet wurden. Man hat sich mit anderen ausgetauscht und seine Begeisterung geteilt. Es hätte so weitergehen können. ;-) Ich könnte so viel schreiben aber ... seht selbst auf den Bildern. Eine absolute Top-Empfehlung für Fans des gehobenen BBQ! Vielen Dank für den herrlichen Abend an das gesamte Team!

Food was very Good and tibor was very nice Thank you

Wenn ich könnte würde ich mehr Sterne geben! Das Essen war, wie bisher jedesmal, der pure Wahnsinn. Ein MUSS für alle Fleischliebhaber. Im Smoker auf den Punkt gebrachte Unmengen von höchstqualitativem Fleisch, dazu eine reiche Auswahl an Salaten, Beilagen und Dips! Schnelles und freundliches (ja das gibt es tatsächlich) Personal, ein gemütliches, familiäres Ambiente und ein Grillmeister/Chef, der seine Aufgabe, ach was red ich, seine Berufung lebt und liebt, machen den Besuch jedesmal zu einem prächtigen Erlebnis. Selbst platztechnischen Sonderwünschen, in unserem Fall wegen unserem Rolli Fahrer, wurden problemlos entsprochen ( wir hatten Rampen für die 3 Stufen am Eingang dabei). Ich freue mich schon riesig auf den nächsten Besuch. Wahrscheinlich werde ich danach zwar auch wieder aus der Uniform platzen und in ein Fresskoma verfallen aber das ist die Fleisch ess Lust definitiv wert! Vielen Dank an David und das komplette Team für einen weiteren schönen Abend, der nächste kommt ganz sicher!

Waren zum Smoker BBQ deluxe Event dort. Einfach empfehlenswert! Bevor es an das Buffet geht, wird vom Chef selbst, der Ablauf für die Zubereitung des Fleisches gegeben. Auch das Fleisch selbst wird erklärt, was sie Freude auf den Abend und das Essen selbst noch steigert. Das Essen, sei es von den Beilagen über Salat bis hin zum Fleisch... Kann man nur als hervorragend bezeichnen. Auch der Service muss erwähnt werden, welcher durchweg freundlich und immer präsent war. Mit Sicherheit wieder.

Immer wieder ein Erlebnis. Top Service, Top Qualität.. das beste Fleisch das ich je gegessen habe. Ein Traum! Weiter so 👍

Wir haben unsere Hochzeitsfeier im Tasting Room ausrichten lassen und können die Location absolut empfehlen. In der Planung ist man absolut auf unsere Wünsche eingegangen, das Essen war phänomenal und der Service kompetent und sehr freundlich. Absolute Empfehlung!

Es war für mich bereits der zweite Besuch des Barbecue Buffet Deluxe. Es wurde ein hervorragendes Buffet serviert. Die Beilagen waren ebenfalls sehr schmackhaft. Das Ambiente und der Service runden das rundum tolle Erlebnis ab. Vielen Dank für das wunderbare Dinner-Erlebnis!

Lovely place and delicious food!! Very friendly staff, especially Marcell 😊 Recommend it to everyone!

Ich war beim BBQ-Kochkurs. Es war ein tolles Event. Man bekommt viele Informationen und gute Tipps. Es ist keine Verkaufsveranstaltung. Finde ich TOP! Ich bin auf jeden Fall wieder dabei.

Außergewöhnliche Location!!! Besitzer David Pietralla vermittelt dem Gast sehr wertvolle Kenntnisse rund ums Fleisch. Sehr fundiertes Wissen, rhetorisch und fachlich glänzend, dabei auch noch ziemlich witzig! Das gesamte Meatheaven ist bis ins kleinste Detail durchdacht und überzeugt mit einer wahnsinns Qualität. Egal, ob ich mir meine Traum-Küche anschaue, die gemütliche Bar, die mega Grill- Ausstattung auf der schönen Terrasse und nicht zu vergessen die schwebenden Tische im Speiseraum- im wahrsten Sinne des Wortes- unbezahlbar!! Selbst auf die Türschlösser der Toiletten wurde geachtet und hochwertige Edelstahl Verschlüsse verwendet. Das gesamte Equipment der Küche ist high end. Das Produkt "Fleisch" worauf es ja letztendlich ankommt, wurde egal ob mit der Pfanne oder dem 13000 Euro teuren Hyper- Grill, monsterlecker zubereitet. Und wer wissen möchte, wie das funktioniert, der muss dann wohl selbst einen Kurs buchen um es zu erleben 😉 Vielen Dank nochmal

Von meiner Seite aus 5/5 Sternen - auch nach mehrmaligen besuchen: Ambitionierte, fachlich fundierte, (meiner Meinung nach) realitätsnahe Kurzvortråge über die heutige Bedeutung von Fleisch in der Gesellschaft. Service ist sehr aufmerksam, permante Auffüllung von Snacks und Getränken. Die Hauptattraktion, das Fleisch, nicht nur lecker sondern auch top ausgewählt um nicht nur einen guten Geschmack sondern auch die Vielseitigkeit von Steaks zu betonen (Herkunft, Fütterung,...). Alles war lecker - die Highlights waren unterschiedlich (personenabhängig), was denke ich auch nur die Vielseitigkeit der Auswahl hervor hebt. Preis ist recht stolz aber im Hinblick auf die Leistung (Service, Fleischqualität, Vorbereitung & Personal) von meiner Seite aus gerechtfertigt, aber natürlich nichts für "mal schnell essen gehen". Von meiner Seite aus eine Besonderheit um sich einen besonders schönen Abend zu machen oder diesen zu verschenken.

Die Tasting-Abende und Buffets, die das Restaurant anbietet, sind definitiv ein Highlight. Das leckere Essen, das freundliche Team und die großartigen Erklärungen zum Fleisch machen den Besuch zu einem unvergesslichen Erlebnis. Ich kann es nur jedem empfehlen, der auf der Suche nach einer erstklassigen kulinarischen Erfahrung ist.

Super lecker das BBQ Buffet, wenn man mal in der nähe ist kann man das aufjedenfall empfehlen.

Tolles kulinarisches Erlebnis im Rahmen einer Veranstaltung. Wahrscheinlich habe ich in meinem Leben noch nie so gutes Fleisch gegessen, alleine deshalb hat sich die weite Anreise gelohnt. Bitte eröffnet eine Dependance irgendwo in oder um Wien, ich würde euer Stammgast werden!

Sehr zu empfehlen, seit mehreren Jahren eine top Addresse und jeden Besuch wert!

Waren das zweite mal hier (Smoker Buffet "Deluxe"). Super leckeres Essen von ausgesuchtem Fleisch. Das ist ein dreifach "bereu" Event. 1. man bereut es wenn man nicht hin geht, 2. wenn man zum Schluss nicht nochmal ans Buffet geht weil es sooooo lecker ist und 3. das man sich und seinen Magen wieder maßlos überschätzt hat. Aber sooooooo lecker. 😀

Der Olymp des Fleischkonsums. Ich kann mir kaum vorstellen, dass es eine Steigerung von Genuß gibt, den man hier erfährt. Der Name ist hier nicht nur Programm, sondern auch Status.

Wir haben schon lange nicht mehr so gutes Fleisch gegessen. Einfach lecker.

Sehr gutes Essen, Tolles Ambiente und klasse Service. 👍👍👍

Szuper minőség, Ádám pincér különleges említést érdemel! A legénybúcsús csapat!
