Open-grill dining in the heart of Sønderborg
Mongolian Barbecue, also known as Restaurant Djengis Khan, sits just off Sønderborg’s main pedestrian streets, drawing you in with the glow of its open kitchen and the hum of conversation. Inside, the space feels warm and informal: polished wooden tables, soft lighting and the constant hiss of a hot grill underlining that this is a place built around food rather than formality. The buffet islands are the focal point, heaped with fresh ingredients and flanked by the broad circular grill where chefs work almost theatrically. Unlike a conventional restaurant where dishes arrive pre-plated, here you move through the counters with an empty plate and a sense of possibility. The atmosphere is relaxed but energetic, a mix of families, couples and groups of friends weaving between tables and buffet stations, all with the same mission: to build their perfect bowl.Build-your-own bowls and sizzling flavours
The house speciality is the Mongolian-style barbecue: you choose from several kinds of meat, seafood, noodles and seasonal vegetables, then top everything with your preferred sauces and spices. There are usually options like chicken, pork, beef, lamb, seafood mixes and surimi, alongside crisp vegetables and different noodle styles, so you can go light and green or full-on carnivorous in a single visit. Once your plate is loaded, you pass it to the grill chef, who spreads the ingredients over the hot steel surface. In a few minutes, with plenty of steam and clatter, your selection is cooked and returned to you, infused with smoky heat and the sauce you picked. Because you control the combinations, it is just as easy to keep things mild and sweet as it is to go for garlic-heavy, chilli-laced stir-fries.Buffet abundance from starters to ice cream
While the open grill is the star, the wider buffet delivers the sense of abundance this place is known for. Alongside the raw ingredients for the barbecue there are prepared Chinese-inspired dishes such as stir-fried vegetables, chicken in curry sauce, crispy bites and simple sides like fries or rice, ideal for less adventurous eaters or younger diners who prefer familiar options. Dessert is handled with the same all-you-can-assemble spirit. There is typically an ice-cream buffet where you can mix scoops, sauces and toppings into a personalised sundae, along with simple sweets like pancakes or banana desserts. It is straightforward, fun and designed to appeal as much to children as to adults finishing a leisurely meal.Casual evenings, groups and celebrations
Mongolian Barbecue is very much an evening place: doors open late afternoon and service runs into the night, making it a natural choice for unhurried dinners after a day exploring Sønderborg. The layout and buffet concept lend themselves well to larger tables, so it is often used for birthdays, family gatherings and informal celebrations where people can eat at their own pace and go back for another plate whenever they like. Despite the lively mood, the setting remains comfortable rather than rowdy. Background music, the rhythmic scrape of spatulas on metal and the murmur of conversations create a constant buzz. Staff move between tables topping up drinks, clearing plates and answering questions about sauces or ingredients, while the grill chefs add a touch of theatre every time a new plate hits the heat.Seasonal garden and a touch of Asia in Sønderjylland
In warmer months, one of the restaurant’s quieter charms appears: a walled garden where you can dine outdoors but still feel enclosed and sheltered from the street. With overhead sky and the scent of grilled food drifting from inside, it becomes a cosy courtyard that extends the dining room into the open air. The restaurant has been part of the local scene for years, giving Sønderborg a distinctly Asian flavour right in its historic centre. It combines Chinese and Mongolian barbecue traditions with a Danish sense of hygge: hearty portions, an unfussy setting and the pleasure of lingering over multiple rounds of food with people you enjoy. Whether you are experimenting with new flavour combinations or returning to a favourite sauce mix, the experience is as much about participation as it is about what ends up on your plate.Iconic landmarks you can’t miss
