The Terrace Restaurant at Hilton Narita (Narita, Chiba) will hold a "Christmas Buffet" from December 19 (Saturday) to December 25 (Friday), 2026. Brunch and dinner will feature Christmas-limited menus. On four days (December 19, 20, 24 and 25), a "Christmas Special Dinner Buffet" will also offer time with Santa Claus and lively performances.
This year's concept is "The Gift of Christmas — A Special Christmas to Unwind the Heart." Through Christmas dishes and entertainment, the buffet aims to make the time spent with loved ones at the hotel a Christmas gift in itself.
Christmas Buffet Highlights (Brunch and Dinner)
The buffet counters will be filled with dishes that set the Christmas mood. Menu items available at both brunch and dinner include the Christmas-colored "Colorful Tomato and Mozzarella Christmas Caprese," the "Rosemary-Scented Rotisserie Chicken," and Julskinka (ユールシンカ), a traditional Swedish Christmas dish, served with sauerkraut.
The sweets corner will offer eight Christmas sweets that change daily. They include the "Striped Panna Cotta," a three-layer dessert decorated with Santa Claus and snowmen, the "Berry Charlotte" made with plenty of strawberries, and the colorful "Velvet Kugelhopf."
Christmas Special Dinner Buffet (Four Days Only)
On December 19 (Saturday), 20 (Sunday), 24 (Thursday) and 25 (Friday), the "Christmas Special Dinner Buffet" will offer a special menu. The featured dish is the "Grilled Wagyu Sirloin and Pan-Seared Duck Foie Gras with Sauce Périgueux": Wagyu sirloin served with savory pan-seared duck foie gras and finished with a truffle-scented sauce. One plate per guest aged 4 and over will be brought to the table.
During the meal, Santa Claus and reindeer will visit each table and give small gifts to children, and a magician will move around the room performing (details below).
