Local tips

  • Time your visit for the running sushi hours in the late afternoon and evening if you want the full conveyor-belt experience alongside the buffet.
  • Arrive early in the evening on weekends or during school holidays if you prefer a calmer atmosphere and shorter waits at the buffet and grill.
  • If anyone in your group has dietary restrictions, mention it to staff at the start; they can often point out suitable dishes or suggest alternatives.
  • Plan to stay at least 1.5–2 hours so you can enjoy the Mongolian grill, sample sushi and still leave room for the ice cream and dessert bar.
  • For larger groups or visits on busy weekend evenings, booking a table in advance is strongly recommended to avoid waiting for a free table.

Chinese Flavours in the Heart of Herning

Restaurant Den Kinesiske Mur brings a slice of East Asia to Østergade, right in the centre of Herning. From the street, red signage and lantern motifs hint at the theme inside, where warm lighting, dark woods and splashes of gold create a recognisably Chinese-inspired setting. It is one of the city’s largest Chinese restaurants, designed to welcome big and small groups alike, from families celebrating a birthday to colleagues ending the workweek together. Stepping through the door, you enter an open dining room arranged around long buffet counters and a running sushi conveyor. The layout makes food the star of the show: plates, steam rising from metal trays and neat rows of sushi all on display. Seating ranges from tables for two to larger group setups, allowing both intimate dinners and social gatherings in the same space without feeling cramped.

Buffet, Mongolian Grill and Running Sushi

The house specialty is a substantial Asian buffet that combines Chinese classics with a Mongolian-style barbecue. You select raw ingredients from a chilled counter – vegetables, meats and sauces – and hand them to the grill chef, who cooks them on a hotplate while you wait. Alongside this, chafing dishes hold familiar favourites such as stir-fries, noodles, rice dishes and crispy bites that appeal to a wide range of palates. Sushi plays a central role here too. At set hours in the evening a running sushi belt carries small plates past your table, inviting you to pick what catches your eye. Maki, nigiri and small appetisers circulate continuously, making the meal feel dynamic and playful. For those who prefer to linger at the table, a full sushi à la carte menu offers platters and specialty rolls, also available as takeaway for an easy night in.

Desserts, Details and Family-Friendly Touches

After savoury courses, attention turns to the dessert island. A self-serve ice cream bar with toppings, simple cakes and fruit provides a relaxed finish to the meal, especially popular with children who enjoy being in charge of their own creations. Coffee and tea are typically close at hand, rounding off the experience without leaving the dining room. Inside, the soundscape is busy but warm: conversation from neighbouring tables, the soft clatter of plates at the buffet and the occasional hiss from the barbecue station. Families appreciate the informal setup, where children can move between table and buffet, while adults tend to linger over extra helpings or one more plate from the sushi belt. The atmosphere remains casual rather than formal, making it an easy choice for mixed-age groups.

Design, Atmosphere and Practical Comfort

The décor leans into classic Chinese-restaurant style: red tones, dragons or calligraphic motifs, and decorative panels that divide the room into semi-separate zones. Lighting is kept on the warm side, helping a large space feel more intimate. Despite its size, pathways to the buffet, grill and conveyor are straightforward, so guests quickly learn the rhythm of serving themselves and returning to their seats. Practical comforts have been built into the layout. There is space to manoeuvre between tables with highchairs or prams, and the broad access routes towards the buffet and restrooms support visitors with reduced mobility. Being centrally located near Herning’s congress and cultural facilities, it also works well as a convenient pre- or post-event dining stop where everyone can quickly find something they like to eat.

When to Visit and How Long to Stay

The restaurant opens from mid-afternoon on weekdays and from lunchtime on Fridays, weekends and public holidays, staying open into the evening. Early dinner times often feel calmer, while later in the evening the room tends to fill with larger groups and a more animated mood. Because the concept is based on buffet and running sushi, you control the pace of your meal: a focused visit can be finished in just over an hour, but many diners plan for a longer sitting to explore the selection at a relaxed tempo. With its central address, broad menu and informal setting, Restaurant Den Kinesiske Mur is less about fine dining and more about abundance, choice and convenience. It suits occasions where variety and an easygoing atmosphere matter more than elaborate presentation, offering a straightforward way to sample both Chinese dishes and sushi in one place in the middle of Herning.
