Pizza joint with a surprisingly grown-up wine list

You walk into a Tulsa pizza spot expecting a two-column wine list of generic house red and white, and instead you find Allegrini, Dr. Konstantin Frank, and a Sonoma Sauvignon Blanc sharing space with your garlic knots. It's not deep, but someone clearly gave a damn. The price ceiling of $72 a bottle at a casual pizza place says more about intent than most fine dining lists do.
The list is compact — maybe a dozen bottles in the research data — but the regional spread is smarter than it has any right to be at a pizzeria. You've got Italian representation via Allegrini (Veneto), a nod to Argentina with La Posta from Mendoza, California covered across Sauvignon Blanc, Cab, and Merlot, and even a Dr. Konstantin Frank from the Finger Lakes throwing a curveball. The gaps are real — no Sangiovese, no Nebbiolo, nothing from Southern Italy — but what's here is chosen with intention rather than just punched in from a distributor catalog. It's a list that makes you curious rather than bored.
Eight pours by the glass is solid for a pizza joint, running from $7 to $13 — which means you can get a decent Allegrini Italian red for $12.50 without committing to a bottle. The low end ($7 Pinot Grigio) is what it is, but the top of the by-the-glass range earns its keep with the Dr. Konstantin Frank at $13 being a genuinely interesting pour you won't find at every restaurant in Tulsa.
Gen 5 Merlot — $36/bottle
California Merlot with a clean pedigree at a price that doesn't punish you for ordering pizza alongside it. The bottle-to-glass ratio checks out too — you're not getting gouged if you go bottle here.
Dr. Konstantin Frank
Most people walk past Finger Lakes wines on a list because they don't recognize the region. That's a mistake here — Frank is one of the most respected producers in New York, and $13 a glass for something this interesting at a pizza place is a genuine find.
Aperture Sauvignon Blanc
At $72 a bottle, this is a solid wine from a well-regarded Sonoma producer — but it's the ceiling of the list and feels like the one outlier priced for the rare table that wants to flex. For a pizza night, the math doesn't work. Put that $72 toward two bottles of something else on this list.
Allegrini Italian Red + The Clemenza Pizza
A Veneto red with The Godfather reference pizza is almost too on-brand, but it works. Allegrini has the acidity to cut through the cheese and the fruit weight to stand up to whatever's going on with the toppings. This is the move.
🎲 The Bottom Line
Andolini's doesn't have to try this hard on wine, and the fact that they do earns real respect. It's not a destination wine list, but it's absolutely the right list for a pizza place that takes itself seriously — and in Tulsa, that makes it a Wild Card worth knowing about.
Midtown · Tulsa · Classic American Steakhouse and Continental Fine Dining
Celebrity is a Tulsa institution for a reason, and the wine list does exactly what it needs to do for a white-tablecloth steakhouse crowd — no more, no less. Send a friend here for the prime rib and a bottle of Jordan; just don't send them expecting to be surprised.

Mondo's wine list won't blow anyone's mind, but it does its job honestly — fair prices, decent Italian representation, and enough options to keep a table happy all night. Send your friends here for dinner without hesitation; just steer them toward the Allegrini instead of the Meiomi.

Brookside / Peoria corridor · Tulsa · Italian
Prossimo is doing the right things with wine in a city where many restaurants don't bother — the Italian focus is genuine and the top-shelf picks show range. The markups keep it from being a great wine destination, but as a neighborhood Italian with a real list, it earns its place.

Cherry Street · Tulsa · Creole and Cajun
Nola's is a genuinely fun place to eat Creole food in Tulsa, but the wine list is an afterthought dressed up in nice stemware. Lean hard into the cocktail menu or bring your own bottle — check if they have a corkage policy, because that might be your best move here.

Brookside · Tulsa · Modern American
Oren is the kind of wine list that makes you recalibrate your expectations for a mid-size city. It's not a deep cellar and there's no half-price night to celebrate, but the curation is thoughtful, the markups are mostly honest, and the picks are the kind you'd expect from a much bigger food scene. Worth ordering from the list — not just the cocktail menu.

Brady Arts District · Tulsa · Craft cocktail bar with beer and wine
Valkyrie is a cocktail bar first and a wine bar never, but the list has more backbone than it has any right to. Come for the drinks, stay curious about the Gamay.
