I'll start off by saying Essighaus has AMAZING ice tea!! I saw it on the daily menu and after…read morehaving too much to drink the night before, knew this would hit the spot. Definitely order it if you want something refreshing during a hot day (that isn't alcohol). I went here to watch a WC game--they have a nice tent set up for viewers to watch with a big screen and benches (basically a bierzelt). I can imagine when Germany plays the place is filled! The food is typical German and good. I ordered fish fried with almonds that came with soup, salad and potatoes. Although the atmosphere was excellent and the food great the service was quite poor. To start with, at the tent they had a separate menu for the football viewers. I understand that during the game with a packed crowd this is necessary as otherwise everyone would have to wait too long for food, it would be too complicated, etc. However, we were watching the Belgian game and were literally the only 2 viewers. Yet, we still had to order off of the separate menu. I would think they could make an exception (especially after I explained I'm vegetarian and all the options had meat) but that was not possible. Fine, I can get over it but they could be a bit more accommodating. After the match was finished, went to eat at the normal restaurant outside and our waitress gave us one of the worst experiences of service ever. When i asked if i could have something instead of the soup, which had meat in it, she said no. I asked for just a bit more salad instead, which already came with the meal but this was not possible, even though I explained I was vegetarian. She was even blatantly rude to us in comparison to other guests. She would practically slam down the food on the table, took a lot longer to get our drinks than guests who ordered after us and never once talked to us or was pleasant in any way (when we was towards other customers). Despite the fact that the food was pretty good and the biergarten atmosphere cool, I wouldn't recommend going here. Essighaus is not willing to be flexible and friendly, which is fine if they don't want to attract or keep customers. There are other places just as good to visit, which is a deep disappointment.

Unethical, fraudulent, unprofessional, and illegal business conduct. I would also like to add,…read moreafter Grenzhof's racist response (they deleted/changed - find original on Facebook) to my review, they are still disgustingly trying to blame me & my fiance for their own disorganization and unprofessionalism instead of apologizing. Let me be clear this is not about "Grenzhof vs us having different ideas" - they didn't honor their original wedding contract prices/terms and held our deposit hostage to force us into signing a new contract. The owner voided our contract without telling us, and sent us a new one with no explanation Warning to all potential wedding couples, or Brautpaar: this place violated our contract terms, along with very poor communication, and confusion among their own staff for how it happened. We are still trying to get our deposit refund back, and it has been almost 3 weeks since Grenzhof confirmed in writing that we would receive it. According to our German attorney, Grenzhof violated EU and German laws in multiple ways and we are prepared to report them to the European Commission and German Consumer Groups for investigation. See the details below. November 11, 2018 - Wedding contract signed for them to host our wedding. Deposit of 500 EUR wired to their account immediately. June 5, 2019 - We called Grenzhof to set up a meeting with the manager so that we could discuss wedding logistics. WE initiated the contact. June 6, 2019 - My fiance and I met with owner/manager to discuss the timeline for when things should be done. At this point she made NO mention of any price changes or contract changes, but we noticed she circled a few things on paper. June 8, 2019 - Received new contract in the mail. They INCREASED prices without notification, REMOVED agreed services in the contract. We called asking for explanation, front desk said she was only told to send new contract by owner and did not know what was actually happening. She said owner claimed that our meeting was to discuss contract changes, which was simply not true. June 12, 2019 - Spoke with different front desk. She said, "This is all new to her, said she would contact [owner] to figure it out". Could not explain to us what happened. June 17, 2019 - Front desk forwards us some notes they took in September 2018 contract details, stating they made pricing mistakes in our contract and didn't notice until now, so they sent us a new one. Grenzhof made the mistake in a signed contract, not us. It was a one-sided decision to void the contract. No apologies, or explanation for why agreed services were removed. This is a LEGAL, BINDING contract and we should have been given the option to cancel. Again, we asked if we can speak to owner to at least renegotiate on friendly terms regarding the services and we were ok with the updated pricing June 25, 2019 - Still no word from owner. She has since refused to speak to us in person and uses her staff to communicate with us. Finally we call to cancel and asked for our deposit back. Which they agreed to in writing confirmation. July 1, 2019 - Still no refund. Called again, which they said their accountant only processes refunds twice a month but would happen "soon". July 11th, 2019 - Still no refund. We send an email to ask for an update, which they ignore and do not reply to. July 12th, 2019 - Finally we call again, impatiently now, as this money is in our opinion considered fraudulently withheld and they are keeping it illegally. Front desk again tells us she does not know why, has no explanation and no update. Very unfortunate as the location is beautiful and we were so excited initially to have our wedding there. They have wasted a lot of our time and we still have no results from them.

I really liked the deco of the place with and amazing ambiance. Candles and detail everywhere. I felt as if I was in Europe!!! Wait a sec I am in Europe!!!!! Service was next to none...excellent!!!! This place was also a hotel and lots of rooms for private parties. In fact our friends did their wedding here. Meal was good. They served us on the house a fried dumpling with Pumpkin soup which was great. I had a lamb lettuce soup"excellent", then came my onions(Shallots). Which I must say I never had with the roots before and it was pretty good I must say. Covered with cheese and olives. My main meal was a sirloin was just OK. I asked for medium but was more rare and a little hard to chew. But was still good. We had a local white wine which was great but they brought me 2 red later and I rejected both of the. They smelled and taste as if the bottle had been opened for a while. They had a out door garden but being winter we can only see it as it was to cold to enjoy it. But I hope to be back here.

We thought it was so adorable and picturesque. The staff was exceptionally friendly and didn't give us a hard time for not knowing how to speak German. I remember the food being delightful as well. They even took a photo of us and let us take one of him. It was a great experience.

The small order of schnitzel will fill you up and if you are lucky to be there during Kürbiscreme soup (pumpkin) you'll be so lucky! Parking in Heidelberg is a bear so I always recommend the train, not alot of large spaces or big park houses in the old town area.
