Gulfport

The Rack House Steak & Spirits

Downtown Gulfport · Gulfport · Steakhouse

The Reliable

The Rack House wine list is exactly what a Gulf Coast steakhouse should be — unpretentious, fairly priced, and wide enough by the glass that you don't feel cornered. We'd send a friend here without hesitation, just with the note to skip the Moscato and go straight for the Ste. Michelle.

Grand Casino Bar at Island View

Island View Casino · Gulfport · Bar

The Lazy List

This is not a destination for wine drinkers — it's a slot machine bar that happens to stock one bubbly. Come for the Sunday bottle deal at Carter Green Steakhouse next door, not for anything happening at the bar itself.

Oyster House at Island View Casino

Island View Casino · Gulfport · Seafood / Raw Bar

The Lazy List

The food concept is solid, but the wine program is an afterthought in a place that should know better — oysters are practically begging for a decent Muscadet or even a crisp rosé, and the kitchen deserves backup. Come for the shellfish, drink the bubbles on Sunday, and lower your expectations below sea level.

Holiday Inn Gulfport – IHG On-Site Restaurant

I-10 / Highway 49 Corridor · Gulfport · Hotel Restaurant / American

The Lazy List

This is not a wine destination — it's a place to sleep near the highway that happens to have wine on the menu because it's legally a full-service hotel. Order a beer, or head somewhere else entirely.

Hilton Garden Inn Biloxi Beach – Garden Grille & Bar

Biloxi Beachfront · Gulfport · American

The Lazy List

This is a wine list for people who need wine with dinner and aren't interested in making it a thing — and it delivers exactly that without embarrassing anyone. If wine is important to your night, eat somewhere else; if you just want a glass of something recognizable while you watch the Gulf, you'll be fine.

Courtyard Bistro at Courtyard by Marriott Gulfport Beachfront

Gulfport Beachfront / Highway 90 · Gulfport · Hotel Bistro

The Lazy List

This is a wine list that exists because the hotel is required to have one. If you're sleeping here, grab a glass of the Clean Slate Riesling and call it a night — but don't make a trip to the Courtyard Bistro for the wine program.

Hilton Garden Inn Gulfport Airport – Garden Grille & Bar

Gulfport Airport Area · Gulfport · Hotel Restaurant / American

The Lazy List

This list was designed for convenience, not conversation. If you're killing time before a flight, grab a glass of Kim Crawford and call it a day — but don't come here expecting anything worth talking about at the table.

Harrah's Gulf Coast – Magnolia House by Kelly English

Harrah's Gulf Coast / Biloxi · Gulfport · Southern / New American

The Reliable

Magnolia House isn't trying to be a wine destination, and with Kelly English's Southern cooking as the real draw, you can forgive a lot. Stick to the by-the-glass program, lean on the seafood-friendly whites, and don't expect your markup to be treated with any particular mercy.

Island View Casino – CG's

Island View Casino / Gaming Floor · Gulfport · American Grill

The Lazy List

CG's is a solid spot to eat a burger before you lose money on the floor — but the wine list is as much of a gamble as the slots, and the house edge is not in your favor. Order a cocktail and move on.

Beach Boulevard Steamer

Island View Casino / Beach Boulevard · Gulfport · Seafood

The Lazy List

Beach Boulevard Steamer is a fine place to eat Gulf Coast seafood; it is not a fine place to drink wine. Order the Riesling or the Sauvignon Blanc, enjoy the view, and save the serious wine drinking for somewhere else.

Carter Green Steakhouse

Island View Casino / Beach Boulevard · Gulfport · Steakhouse

The Reliable

Carter Green is a perfectly competent steakhouse wine list that won't embarrass you on a date or a business dinner — just don't expect it to excite you. The real reason to pay attention: show up Sunday between 5 and 10pm for two-for-one pours, and suddenly the value math gets very interesting.

Tony's Brick Oven Pizzeria

Downtown Gulfport · Gulfport · Pizzeria / Italian

The Reliable

Tony's isn't a wine destination — it's a pizza destination with a functional wine list that won't let you down. Order the Chianti, grab a slice, and leave the wine nerd hat at home.

Radish

Downtown Long Beach · Gulfport · Coastal Southern

The Lazy List

Radish has a charming room and a kitchen that sounds like it's doing real work, but the wine list is a collection of familiar labels with unfamiliar markups. Wednesday's half-price deal is genuinely the only reason to order a bottle here — plan around it or stick to cocktails.

Morton's The Steakhouse – Biloxi

Golden Nugget Biloxi · Gulfport · Steakhouse

The Reliable

Morton's Biloxi is a reliable, if expensive, wine stop for steakhouse classics — the list won't excite you, but it won't embarrass you either. If you're already here for the steak, the Rioja and the dessert wine program give you more to work with than the surroundings might suggest.

BR Prime Steakhouse

Beau Rivage / Biloxi Waterfront · Gulfport · Steakhouse

The Reliable

BR Prime is the rare casino wine list that doesn't embarrass itself — 320 bottles, proper storage, and staff who know what's in those bottles. The markups are real and the list plays it safe, but for Biloxi, Mississippi, this is as good as it gets.

Hippie Fish at Centennial Plaza

Centennial Plaza / Beachfront · Gulfport · Seafood-focused American with coastal Southern influence

The Reliable

Hippie Fish isn't a wine destination — it's a seafood shack with a fair, functional list that keeps things cold, affordable, and stress-free. Come for the Gulf catch and the ocean breeze; drink the Kim Crawford and don't overthink it.

Salute Italian Restaurant

Beachfront / Highway 90 · Gulfport · Italian

The Reliable

Salute isn't a destination wine list, but it's honest, reasonably priced, and calibrated to the food it's serving. Send a friend here for a casual Italian dinner and tell them to stick to the Italian bottles — they'll have a good time.

Patio 44 Gulfport

Downtown Gulfport · Gulfport · Southern/Creole-inspired American, coastal seafood and steaks

The Reliable

Patio 44 isn't going to blow a wine nerd's mind, but it's a genuinely solid option for a Gulf Coast dinner where you want something decent in the glass without having to work too hard. Just watch the markups and steer toward Oregon when the menu lets you.
