Reserved for one party at a time, it offers a private, refined dining experience where guests can enjoy their meal surrounded by forest views, without interruption.

Fully Private Dining for Staying Guests Only

At the heart of the cuisine is charcoal cooking, where aroma and heat are carefully controlled.

  • Fresh, seasonal ingredients sourced from Shinshu and the Karuizawa area

  • Dishes that respect the natural character of each ingredient, without unnecessary embellishment

We value a quiet sense of completeness — one that can only be achieved here.

Beyond the large windows, the forests of Karuizawa unfold.
As the light and stillness shift with the time of day and the seasons, they naturally become part of the dining experience.Enjoy a meal that feels inseparable from the surrounding scenery — something rarely found in urban settings.

Guests can return directly to their villa after dinner, keeping the evening quiet and private.
