A lubricating oil tank includes: a tank casing extending in a first direction; a plurality of introduction portions disposed separately from each other in the first direction; a receiving portion disposed below the plurality of introduction portions in a vertical direction inside the tank casing and configured to receive the lubricating oil introduced from the plurality of introduction portions and cause the lubricating oil to flow toward a second end portion of the tank casing in the first direction; and a strainer configured to capture a foreign matter in the lubricating oil having flowed on the receiving portion. The receiving portion is inclined downward in the vertical direction toward the second end portion in the first direction. The strainer is disposed at a position closer to the second end portion than the plurality of introduction portions in the first direction.
