Wingman Metrics
The wine list at Bella Luna's west location is exactly what you'd expect from a lively power-center Mediterranean cafe — familiar labels, approachable prices, nothing that's going to make a wine nerd's pulse quicken. It mirrors the east location closely, which tells you this is a brand-managed program, not a passion project. That's fine. It works.
The list runs 25–40 bottles and leans hard on California and Italy — think the grocery store aisle's greatest hits: Josh Cellars, Kendall-Jackson, La Marca. There's a broad international nod but don't come looking for anything off the beaten path; this list exists to keep the table happy, not to challenge it. No small growers, no obscure regions, no surprises. What it lacks in adventure it makes up for in approachability — your aunt who drinks Chardonnay and your buddy who orders Cab will both land somewhere comfortable.
Eight to twelve options by the glass at $8–$11 is a solid range for West Wichita, and the prices are honest. Rotation appears minimal — this reads more like a set-and-forget pour list than something that gets refreshed seasonally. No standouts, but no disasters either.
La Marca Prosecco NV — $9/glass, $30/bottle
At 114% markup, this is the least punished wine on the list. Retail sits around $14, so you're not getting gouged — and it's genuinely fun with mezze plates and lighter starters. Order it on half-price night and it's a straight-up steal.
La Marca Prosecco NV
Most people at a Mediterranean cafe reach for the Cab or the Chardonnay. Don't. The Prosecco is the sharpest value here and it actually makes sense with the food — bright, a little fizzy, cuts right through hummus and garlic-heavy plates that would flatten a heavier red.
Kendall-Jackson Vintner's Reserve Chardonnay NV
At $34 a bottle, you're paying roughly 183% over retail for a wine that costs $12 at Dillons. It's inoffensive, sure, but there's nothing here that justifies the markup when the Prosecco exists at the same table.
La Marca Prosecco NV + Hummus & Steak appetizer
The Prosecco's effervescence and light acidity cut through the richness of the hummus and keep the charred steak flavors from getting heavy. It's a better call than the reflexive Cab, and it makes the appetizer feel like an actual course.
Monday — Half-price wine bottles all day Monday; select bottles also discounted Tuesday and Thursday per SinglePlatform menu listing. Verify current days with the restaurant as specials appear to vary by source.
The Bottom Line
Bella Luna West isn't a wine destination, but it's not trying to be — and the half-price bottle nights genuinely change the math. Show up Monday, order the Prosecco, eat your hummus, and enjoy it for what it is.

Dave & Buster's Wichita is not a wine destination — and the list makes no attempt to pretend otherwise. Fourteen labels of grocery-store standbys, no pricing transparency, and a venue where the primary business is flashing screens and redemption tickets means the wine program is essentially decorative. Order the cocktail, feed the machine, save the bottle for literally anywhere else.

Meddys West is here for the food, and the wine list knows it. If you're looking for something to wash down your meal without drama, the $8 glass is fine — just don't come here expecting the wine to be the point.

Sheet's Creek is a reliable pour in a landlocked city — nothing here will surprise a seasoned wine drinker, but it won't embarrass you either. Send your friends if they like California reds and don't want to think too hard about it.

First Mile Kitchen's wine list exists to check a box, not to enhance your meal. The pricing is honest and a few bottles are quietly decent, but if wine is important to your night out, you'll want to eat somewhere with more than eight options.

Prost isn't a wine destination — it's a biergarten that respects its theme enough to put a coherent German wine list on the table. The Thirsty Thursday bottle deal is legitimately good, and if you show up on the right night with the right dish, you'll leave happier than you expected.

The Belmont is a perfectly fine place to drink wine in Wichita — the Tuesday half-price bottle deal legitimately rescues the steep markups and makes it worth a visit. Just arrive with low expectations for discovery and high expectations for a good time.

Florie's is a hotel wine program that tries harder than it has to, and that counts for something. The all-by-the-glass format is genuinely practical, the French selections show real taste, and a few pours — the Schloss Lieser, the Armand Heitz — would be highlights at any standalone wine bar. The markups are what they are: you're inside a Four Seasons. Go in with eyes open, order the Riesling, and let someone else order the Opus One.

Del Mar is a Reliable pour in a city that doesn't always try that hard at wine — the Coravin program and the 34-glass lineup show real effort, and the Assyrtiko alone is worth the visit if you're ordering seafood. Markups on the California icons are steep, so steer toward the European picks and you'll drink well without feeling taken.

Zaytinya's wine list is one of the more focused and honest Greek programs you'll find at a mid-to-high scale restaurant in D.C. The by-the-glass selection is wide, the pricing doesn't insult you, and the Greek variety depth is genuinely impressive. If you've been waiting for a reason to finally figure out what Xinomavro tastes like, this is your spot.
