For 4 or more people, you can eat at a restaurant with a private room style.
Although there are many popular Japanese foods, such as Ramen, Sushi, Tempura, Yakiniku, and so on, it is rare change to eat Japanese traditional course cuisine at Onsen Ryokan for dinner.

However, meals at recent inns have more varieties, such as buffet style and simple set meals.
Thus it is recommended to confirm in advance what kind of meals they serve.
