Local tips

  • Buffet turnover is highest in the early evening, when dishes are refreshed most often; if you value variety and hot trays, time your visit for around local dinner hours.
  • If you are visiting with children or a group, request a table slightly away from the buffet line for more space and fewer people passing behind your chairs.
  • Use the first plate as a sampler to taste a little of everything, then return for seconds of your favourites instead of overloading your plate on the first round.
  • Combine buffet hot dishes with a small selection of sushi to vary textures and flavours; starting with sushi before moving to heavier fried items works well.
  • Bring a light layer in colder months, as you may feel a contrast between the outdoor chill and the warm indoor buffet area near the heated trays.

A relaxed Asian buffet in the heart of Maribo

Restaurant China House sits on Vestergade, a short stroll from Maribo’s main square and lake, drawing in hungry locals, families and travellers with its generous all‑you‑can‑eat concept. The frontage is straightforward and welcoming, with large windows looking into a bright, practical dining room. Inside, the mood is informal and easy‑going rather than fancy, the sort of place where you can drop in after sightseeing around Lolland or a day on the road. Seating is arranged in rows and small clusters, with space to pull tables together for groups. Soft, warm lighting and simple Asian decorative touches create a cosy atmosphere without feeling cramped. It is very much a come‑as‑you‑are setting: kids in hoodies, couples in casual clothes and friends meeting up over heaped plates all feel equally at home here.

Buffet favourites, sushi and easy comfort food

The core of China House is its buffet, laid out along heated counters and chilled sections. You can expect a familiar line‑up of Chinese‑style dishes: spring rolls, crispy chicken, sweet‑and‑sour sauces, noodles, fried rice and mixed vegetables. There are usually several wok‑style options, allowing you to combine meats, seafood and vegetables with different sauces for something a little fresher from the kitchen. Alongside the hot dishes, the restaurant also serves sushi, focusing on simple maki and nigiri rather than elaborate creations. For many visitors, it is less about fine detail and more about the fun of sampling a bit of everything. The buffet format makes it straightforward for mixed groups: those who crave something fried and comforting can fill their plates, while others lean toward lighter stir‑fries or sushi. Dessert is typically straightforward too, with ice cream and a few sweet bites to finish.

Casual rhythm and practical details

China House runs on an unfussy rhythm that fits neatly around the day in Maribo. Later afternoons and evenings tend to be busier, when locals drop by after work or families come in once children finish school. Tables turn steadily as guests graze at the buffet and chat, adding to a low, constant hum of conversation and clinking cutlery. The restaurant is firmly in the inexpensive bracket for Denmark, which makes it attractive for those watching their budget or feeding a group. Drinks, including soft drinks and beer, are ordered separately at the table, while water is usually easy to obtain. Service is brisk and functional, with staff circulating to clear plates and refresh the buffet, allowing you to focus on your meal rather than formalities.

Location amid Maribo’s small‑town charm

Being right in central Maribo, China House is easy to fold into a wider day out. The town’s cobbled streets, churches and small shops are within a few minutes’ walk, as is the lakeside area that makes Maribo such a pleasant stop on Lolland. This convenient position means the restaurant often serves as a refuelling point between museum visits, nature walks or time spent exploring the island’s countryside. In poor weather, the indoor setting becomes a haven: you step in from wind or rain to warm air and the scent of sizzling stir‑fries. On brighter days, the buzz of people arriving from the surrounding streets adds to the sense that this is one of the town’s easygoing meeting places.

Who enjoys it and how to make the most of a visit

China House is particularly suited to families with children, thanks to the buffet format and relaxed expectations, but it works equally well for couples and small groups who want a low‑stress meal at a predictable price. Solo diners who appreciate the freedom of choosing exactly what and how much to eat also find it convenient. To make the most of a visit, aim for earlier in the evening if you prefer a calmer room, or later if you enjoy a livelier energy and freshly replenished trays. Pair a stop here with a stroll through Maribo’s old streets or a walk along the lake, using the restaurant as a comfortable, uncomplicated anchor point in your exploration of Lolland.
