The interior is quite modern, unlike your typical Stube in the Pfalz, but still comfortable and welcoming. We visited on a week night so it was quiet but the service was very professional and competent. We decided to share one of their 7 week dry-aged steaks so we skipped a starter (we still enjoyed the bread with Schmalz and Quark however). A side of green beans and a choice of potatoes was suggested, and both were very good (3 euro per portion, but very generous and better than typically served elsewhere, especially the fries). The steak was some of the best meat I've eaten, anywhere. We shared a ~700 gramme Porterhouse, served off the bone and sliced. It looked perhaps slightly redder than the medium we ordered, but the 7-week aging made this irrelevant; the outside was well charred and seasoned and the meat was delicious; tender, full of flavour, and not at all rare despite the colour. The additional aging time beyond a steak you'll get nearly anywhere renders it different to anything you're likely to have eaten before. We had eaten at a very high-end steak restaurant in Las Vegas only a few weeks previously (Wagyu-Angus cross cattle, 5-week aged) and this was even better and also better value. I'd happily go back and try their other dishes, but I think I'd find it hard to resist getting another steak (they offer various sizes of fillet, T-bone, sirloin, rib-eye, cote de boeuf, and the Porterhouse we enjoyed). Their wine list includes several they produce themselves and some notable names from the Pfalz, at prices that won't shock. They also have some from the appropriately-named Metzger winery that show you really can find a punchy Pfalz red to go with steak.
