Ogiya (Niigata Prefecture)

This drive-in style facility is next to Ogi Port Terminal on Sado Island in Niigata Prefecture. The first floor has a souvenir shop selling Sado specialties, and the third floor has a restaurant with a total of 120 seats. From the third floor, a passageway connects directly to Ogi Port Terminal, so you can enjoy dining and shopping right up until departure time.

Popular dishes at the third-floor restaurant include the Sado Natural Yellowtail Cutlet Bowl, made with locally caught natural yellowtail from Sado fried crispy in local rice flour, as well as the Reward Bowl and Silver Salmon Kamameshi, both made with thick cuts of Sado salmon. In the morning, you can also enjoy a breakfast set (8:30am–10:30am).

The souvenir shop on the first floor is stocked with signature Sado specialties, including sweets, overnight-dried squid, and clay dolls made by local artisans. It also sells light meals such as soft-serve ice cream from Sado Dairy, known for its Sado Butter, and rock seaweed ramen, making it a good option for a quick bite outside the restaurant’s business hours.
