(Translated by Google) I think this is a good example of selection and concentration. By offering a small number of delicious dishes, you can keep costs down and still be satisfied. The clientele is clearly all female. I would give it 5 stars, but it's mainly vegetables, with one meat dish and one fish dish, and no children's dishes, so for the average man or child, it would probably be 2 stars (lol). It's not a lunch buffet for families.
Also, there are no pre-made dishes, and everything is delicious, which is what makes it so appealing.
It was 3,900 yen including the hot spring at Tsuruga Resort. This is a bargain. The price difference with the accommodation was incredible. The hot spring has a calm atmosphere and is thick, and there are many types of baths, so I was satisfied. The meal alone is 2,700 yen, but I recommend the bath set for 3,900 yen. I was very satisfied with all of this.
Also, parking is 500 yen, so the actual meal is 3,200 yen, and with the hot spring it's 4,400 yen. It's also good to enjoy not only the lunch buffet, but also a stroll around Lake Shikotsu and an underwater sightseeing boat (2,000 yen for 30 minutes).
I went on Thursday. I didn't make a reservation. I went at about 11:10 for the 11:30 session. I was underestimating it because it was a weekday, but I was told that only the terrace seats outside were available. If you want to go safely, you should make a reservation even on Thursday or Friday. By the way, please note that the lunch buffet is not open on weekdays, Mondays, Tuesdays, and Wednesdays, and on holidays in April and after November.
So, when I went in at 11:30, there was a line in front of the food. Since there are only a few dishes, the customers who entered the restaurant at 11:30 all lined up at the same time. By 11:45, the line had thinned.
So, if you're going on Thursday or Friday, it's probably best to make a reservation or buy a ticket in advance and go at 11:45 on purpose. 11:30 is a little early for lunch, and there are only a few dishes, so everyone finished eating in about 50 minutes. At 12:20, 50 minutes later, there was a line for coffee. On Thursdays and Fridays, you just have to finish eating by 13:30. Unlike weekends and holidays, there is no second session on Thursdays and Fridays, so there is plenty of time for meals from June 1st to October 31st, 2025, from 11:30 to 13:30. (Baths are open until 15:00)
By the way, on weekends and holidays in 2025, there will be two sessions: 1st session 11:00-12:30 and 2nd session 12:40-14:10.
Even though the number of dishes is small, it is possible to arrange a lunch course meal by combining the buffet.
・Appetizers (assorted about 10 kinds)
・Soup (corn soup, clam miso soup)
・Pasta (regular and gnocchi)
・Fish dishes (rockfish and vegetables steamed with herb butter)
・Meat dishes (roast beef)
・Desserts (various cakes, etc.)
・Bread (various)
・Drinks (coffee, tea, herbal tea, juice)
There are other dishes, and curry and white rice are also available. Speaking of Tsuruga, the Tsuruga Roll is one of the must-haves, but I couldn't find it anywhere... Also, there were no smoothies in the lunch buffet. I liked them though. I think they were available a few years ago... I guess this is the result of selection and concentration, it can't be helped.
The best thing for me was the clam miso soup.
I think the roast beef was the main dish. It was delicious. The balance of red and white meat was good, and it was soft and had no sinews. I thought it was good meat.
Also, when you combine the rockfish with a sweet potato dish, it was like a brandade and was delicious.

選択と集中の成功例だと思います。美味しい物を品数少な目で提供することでコストを抑えて満足できるんです。客層は明らかに女性ばかりです。私は星5ですが、野菜中心で肉1品、魚1品で子供向け料理はありませんので、一般的な男性や子供には星2でしょうね(笑)ファミリー向けのランチビュッフェではありません。
また、既製品が無くどれもこれも美味しいことが魅力です。
鶴雅リゾートで温泉も入れて3,900円でした。これは破格ですよ。宿泊との金額の差が半端じゃなかったです。温泉は落ち着いた雰囲気とトロみがあって風呂の種類も多くて満足ですし、食事だけだと2,700円ですが、3,900円でもお風呂もセットがオススメです。これだけ愉しめたら、私はすごく満足でした
。あと、駐車場500円ですので、実質食事3,200円、温泉付きで4,400円ですね。ランチビュッフェだけでなく、支笏湖散策や水中遊覧船(30分2,000円)を合わせて楽しむのもまた良いですよ。
私は木曜日に行きました。予約はしてません。11:30の部を目掛けて11:10くらいに行きました。平日なので甘く見てたんですが、外のテラス席しか空いてないと言われました。安心して行きたいなら木曜日金曜日でも予約するべきですね。ちなみに平日月火水曜日と4月及び11月以降の祝日は、ランチビュッフェ営業してませんのでご注意を。
で、11:30に入ったら料理の前に行列でした。品数少ないですからね、一斉に11:30に入店したお客さんが集中して並ぶわけですよ。11:45には行列は少なくなってました。
なので、木曜日か金曜日に行くなら戦略的には先に予約かチケットだけ買っておいて、わざと11:45に行くのが正解なんでしょうね。昼ごはんに11:30は少々早いですし、品数少ないので50分くらいあれば、皆さん食べ終わってました。50分経過した12:20には今度はコーヒーに行列でした。木曜日と金曜日は13:30までに食べ終わればいいのです。土日祝日と違って木曜日金曜日は第2部がありませんので、食事の時間は2025年6月1日~10月31日については11:30〜13:30で余裕があります。(お風呂は15:00まで)
ちなみに2025年度の土日祝日は1部 11:00~12:30 2部 12:40~14:10の2部構成になります。
また、品数が少ないと言ってもビュッフェの組み合わせでランチコース料理くらいのアレンジは可能です。
・前菜(10種くらい盛り合わせる)
・スープ(コーンスープ、しじみの味噌汁)
・パスタ(普通のとニョッキ)
・魚料理(メバルと野菜のハーブバター蒸し)
・肉料理(ローストビーフ)
・デザート(各種ケーキ等)
・パン(各種)
・お飲み物(コーヒー、紅茶、ハーブティー、ジュース)
他にも料理ありますし、カレーも白米もありますよ。鶴雅と言えば鶴雅ロールですが、見当たらなかったですね…。あとスムージーもランチビュッフェに無かったですね。好きだったんですけどね。何年か前はあった気がしますが…これも選択と集中の結果でしょう、やむを得ません。
私は1番美味しかったのはしじみの味噌汁でした。
ローストビーフが1番の目玉料理だと思います。美味しいです。赤身と白身のバランスが良く、柔らかくてスジが無い感じです。良い肉だと思いました。
また、メバルとサツマイモ料理を合わせると、ブランダードみたいで美味しかったです。
