Joetsu, Niigata, Japan｜Osteria Sakazume

Located in a quiet residential area, the shop has a calm atmosphere. We ate lunch for 1650 yen, but we chose different items and ate them separately. It was very delicious and the beef simmered in wine had a sour taste because it was balsamic vinegar, and the gnocchi was refreshing and easy to eat. It was authentic Italian food. The dessert was a pear boiled in wine with gelato and it was very delicious.

A couple-run restaurant that serves delicious Italian cuisine using local vegetables. High standard of cooking!

An Italian restaurant located in a small alley. It's a little nerve-wracking when you enter the store for the first time, but both the owner and his wife are very friendly people, so you'll soon get used to it and enjoy a lively conversation at the counter. They prepare the most delicious dishes according to the season, such as menus using homemade Italian vegetables. The parking lot is a little difficult to understand, so please ask after arriving at the store. It's also close to the new aquarium, Umigatari, so it's recommended to go for a walk!
