Everett

Jetty Bar & Grille

· Everett · Northwest / Seafood

The Reliable

Jetty isn't a wine pilgrimage, but it's a thoughtful little list at a waterfront spot in Everett — fair prices, genuine Pacific Northwest representation, and no obvious embarrassments. Send your friend here for a glass of Pinot Gris and some Puget Sound seafood without hesitation.

Luca Italian Restaurant & Wine Bar

Downtown Everett · Everett · Italian / Wine Bar

The Reliable

Luca is the kind of reliable Italian date-night spot that Everett needed — the wine program is Italy-focused and food-friendly, even if it doesn't take many risks. Send your parents here for their anniversary; save your deep-dive wine nerding for a dedicated wine bar.

Lombardi's Italian Restaurant – Everett Marina

Everett Marina · Everett · Italian / Wine Bar

The Wild Card

Lombardi's is doing something genuinely unexpected for a marina-side Italian in Everett — a deep, glass-for-glass Washington-meets-Italy red wine program that earns a second look. The pricing leans steep on the high end, but the range and ambition make it worth navigating.

Rustic Cork Wine Bar & Bistro

Port of Everett · Everett · Wine Bar / Bistro

The Wild Card

Rustic Cork is the kind of neighborhood wine bar that Everett deserves — unpretentious, waterfront, and built around wines from right down the road. Show up on a Wednesday with someone worth talking to and let the half-price bottles do the rest.

La Terraza Mexican Restaurant

Unknown · Everett · Mexican

The Lazy List

La Terraza is a solid neighborhood spot for the food — but the wine list is an afterthought and everyone involved knows it. Come for the fajitas, order the sangria, and save the bottle of wine for when you get home.

Tampico Mexican Restaurant

Broadway · Everett · Mexican

The Lazy List

Tampico is a neighborhood Mexican spot that does its core job well — the wine list is simply not part of that job. Order the margaritas, grab a Sangria carafe if you need something to share, and save the wine conversation for somewhere else.

Outback Steakhouse – Everett

Everett · Everett · Steakhouse

The Lazy List

Outback Everett feeds a lot of people well, but the wine list is pure cruise control — familiar labels, chain markups, and zero effort to go beyond the obvious. Order the Ste. Michelle, enjoy your steak, and don't come here expecting anything more from the bottle.

Red Lobster – Everett

Everett · Everett · Seafood

The Lazy List

Red Lobster's wine list exists to check a box, not to enhance your meal. Order the Ste. Michelle Riesling, enjoy your biscuits, and save the serious wine for somewhere that actually cares.

Buffalo Wild Wings – Everett

Everett · Everett · Sports Bar

The Lazy List

Buffalo Wild Wings Everett is not a wine destination — it is a sports bar that happens to have a few bottles on a shelf somewhere. Save your wine curiosity for literally anywhere else in Everett and order the beer.

Olive Garden Italian Restaurant

Everett Mall Way · Everett · Italian

The Lazy List

Olive Garden's wine list is the dining equivalent of airport Wi-Fi — functional, fine, and not something you'd ever brag about. Order the Chianti, enjoy the breadsticks, and save the serious bottle for somewhere that earned it.

Applebee's Grill + Bar – Everett

Everett Mall Area · Everett · American Casual Dining / Bar and Grill

The Lazy List

Applebee's wine list exists because it legally has to, not because anyone here loves wine. Order the cocktails, drink the beer, and come back for wine somewhere else.

Red Robin Gourmet Burgers and Brews – Everett Mall

Everett Mall · Everett · American / Burger Chain

The Lazy List

Red Robin's wine list is a corporate checkbox, not a wine program. Order a craft beer, a milkshake, or a cocktail — those are the actual reasons to sit at this bar.

Chan's Place Everett

Everett · Everett · Chinese

The Reliable

Chan's Place isn't your wine destination — it's your reliable neighborhood spot where the food is the point and the wine list is there to serve it without drama. Order the Riesling, skip the Cab, and let the Peking Duck do the talking.

Olive Garden Italian Restaurant – Everett

Everett Mall Area · Everett · Italian-American

The Lazy List

The wine list at Olive Garden Everett is a corporate formality — it exists because dinner requires wine, not because anyone thought hard about it. Order the Chianti, enjoy your breadsticks, and save your wine curiosity for somewhere that returns the favor.

El Paraiso Mexican Grill Everett

Downtown Everett · Everett · Mexican

The Lazy List

El Paraiso is a solid neighborhood Mexican spot where the tequila program and the kitchen are doing the real work. The wine list is an afterthought and should be treated as one — order a margarita and move on.

Emory's on Silver Lake

Silver Lake · Everett · American, steak and seafood with Northwest fare

The Reliable

Emory's isn't a destination wine list, but it's a well-matched one — Washington pours at fair prices on a lake deck is a formula that works. If you send a friend here, tell them to skip the 14 Hands and ask about the Pomum.

Cabernets & IPAs

Everett · Everett · Wine bar / small plates

The Wild Card

Cabernets & IPAs is a genuinely fun, low-stakes wine bar doing something the Everett area doesn't have a lot of — a rotating, regionally curious list in a spot with actual ambiance. Markup is a little aggressive for what's on offer, but the views and the flight format make it worth the trip.

Anthony's HomePort Everett

Port Gardner / Waterfront · Everett · Pacific Northwest Seafood

The Reliable

Anthony's HomePort Everett isn't a wine destination, but it's not trying to be — it's a well-run regional seafood spot with a short, honest, fairly priced all-Washington pour list that does exactly what it needs to do. Come for the crab and the view, order the Sparkman, and don't overthink it.
