'Vegetables Feed the Body and Soul’ – Nagano-style Buffet

We use a variety of local and in-season ingredients to create a tempting spread of over 40 Japanese, Chinese, and Western dishes for your enjoyment
The menu changes daily, so that even long-term visitors can look forward to a refreshing variety
The Saito Hotel works from a concept of 'Creating Wellness'. We are very concerned about creating food that promotes health and wellbeing, and use the nutritionally balanced traditional Japanese model of the “Ichiju Sansai” (One soup and 3 side dishes, with a carbohydrate such as rice, bread, or noodles) as a guide for our menu.

Crafted with Care by Our Chef

Many of our guests say, “Having come all the way to Nagano, it would be a shame not to sample some of the local produce”. With this in mind, we create dishes using a variety of local ingredient so that you can sample the best of Nagano’s bounty and regional fare.

100% Nagano-grown ‘Koshihikari’ Rice

Grown by Mr. Baba

This is delicious rice.
The reasons are that it was grown with love, without much pesticide, in our local fertile paddies fed with clean water, and bathed in the sun.
The Saito Hotel is proud of our relationship with Mr. Baba, and is happy to serve locally grown rice from his paddies at our buffet.

A Sake to Compliment the Meal

Would you like to try a deep-flavored local sake from Nagano?

Our guests often inquire “What kind of drink goes best with this meal”?
In order to create the most delicious, appealing dining experience possible,
we have put a lot of thought into this part of the menu.
We have assembled a variety of recommended Nagano sakes,
shochus (Japanese spirits distilled from various ingredients), and wines.
