    某人気芸人の番組で取り上げられた村上牛の有名店。土曜昼時訪問。混雑時は店内外行列待ち、2カ所に分かれた駐車場はほぼ満車と人気。因みにモウ一軒の鮭店は1時間待ち、駐車場で待機してLINEで呼出と至れり尽くせり。ステーキハンバーグ定食税抜1,350円。支払は各種カードやペイペイも使えて便利。量的にはライト級。アングロサクソン的味蕾の持主にはファミレスやファストフードのハンバーグもお薦め。

    Nigata Pref. Nigatashi Chuou-ku Furumachidori Sambanchou 557-1
    Genuine, hearty American-style hamburgers are served at Ken's Burger near JR Hakusan Station. Sasebo Burgers from Nagasaki are just one of the many unique varieties that the skillful owner has created. Fine ingredients, such as juicy patties of Japanese and Australian beef, sauces made onsite, and crisp vegetables are matched with fragrant, freshly baked buns for an unbeatable combination. The 500-gram Furumachi Special Burger is a popular choice.

    かみふるにあります。 いつも混んでいて、お店の外にも並んでいるお客さんが沢山いますが、お昼時を少しずらすと、空いています。 中にはテーブル席とカウンター席があります。 佐世保バーガー系のお店です。 ソースに特徴があるようで、美味しいです。 パンに焦げ目が付いているのも、これまた美味しいです。 ドリンクは小さな缶ジュースがそのまま出てきて、350円。 せめて、コップにあけてくれれば、割高感も少しは薄...

    Nigata Pref. Sadoshi Nakahara 598-1
    This restaurant in Nakahara, Sado Island, Niigata Prefecture is located in a stylish building with gray outer walls. It is a restaurant where guests can casually taste French cuisine made lavishly with ingredients from Sado Island, believing in local production for local consumption.

    We had high hopes due to the positive reviews and had our hotel book a table but when we arrived there was no English menu. We had been looking forward to tasting French food with an Italian...

    Nigata Pref. Nigatashi Chuou-ku Bandai 1-2-3 Corp Nomura Mitsuyo 1F
    This café was relocated from Higashibori-dori in September 2017, and reopened in Bandai, Chuo Ward, Niigata City, Niigata Prefecture. It is popular with female customers. The interior is a warm wooden space, with a gentle color scheme that entice customers to stay longer. The café’s most popular menu item is a hand-baked pancake, which retains the aroma of the wheat used to make it. The springy, fluffy pancakes go perfectly with maple syrup and unsalted butter to make an exquisite combination. The food menu is also substantial, and there is an additional lunch menu with items such as lunch platters and sandwiches.

    The atmosphere of the cafe is good. But staffs are inattentive. They were chitchatting each other. So the service was very slow. I wonder if they took employee training.

    Nigata Pref. Nigatashi Chuou-ku Hakusanura 1-631
    This western style restaurant established in 1923 is located near Hakusan Station on the JR Echigo Line. Their famous dish that has become synonymous with the restaurant is a beef-tongue stew that's been slow cooked to a point that it cannot be picked up with chopsticks. The base for their white sauce has remained the same since they were founded and their gratin is also popular. Their first floor is a drop-in restaurant, the second floor has private rooms, and the third floor is a banquet hall, allowing them to adapt to any scene or occasion. Boxed lunches, hors d'oeuvres and set course meals can also be delivered.

    近くに来たついでにランチでよりました。店は古く入りづらい雰囲気でしたが、午後一時にも関わらずけっこう賑わっていました。リタイアした近所の方が多いようです。ピーアランチ850円を注文しました。なかなかのお味です。好感が持てるお店だと思います。近くに来たらまた寄りたい店です。

    This cafe and restaurant sits on a hill along National Route 402, overlooking the Sea of Japan. Operating as a traditional pizzeria they have received certification from the Associazione Verace Pizza Napoletana founded in Naples. Try their highly recommended Pizza D.O.C., which uses mozzarella di bufula made traditionally from scarce water buffalo milk, and was shown in the Niigata Daily News. Combination meals and course meals are also available. You can also swap the wheat noodles in their pasta dishes for rice noodles made from white and brown rice.

    Nigata Pref. Nigatashi Chuou-ku Kasugachou 7-13
    This hide-away restaurant is a 15-minute walk from the Bandai exit of JR Niigata Station. The building is styled like a Japanese house and gives a modern-Japanese feeling while the contemporary French cuisine overflows with a sense of the seasons. There are private rooms with six seats as well as seven seats at the counter. From the counter you can gaze out into the courtyard while eating and watch the changing seasons, from the greens of spring and summer, to the colors of autumn and the snow of winter. Dedication was given to using local goods including Niigata ingredients, cutlery by Tsubame Sanjou, and coffee cups by Yasuda Yaki. Reservations are required for the dinner course set menu.

    新潟駅から徒歩圏内にありますが、とても静かな界隈にある隠れ家的なレストランです。ディナーはコース料理のみ。要予約です。一つ一つ、丁寧に作られたビジュアル的にも美しいお料理ばかりです。ワインの種類は少ないです。丁寧な接客で、終始気持ちよく過ごせます。
