Walking into Cattlemen's, the wine list is pretty much what you'd expect from a 100-year-old Oklahoma institution that built its reputation on beef, not Burgundy. It's not trying to impress you — it's trying to get out of the way so you can focus on your ribeye. That's not necessarily a bad thing.
The list runs about 30-50 bottles and leans hard into California — Sonoma, Napa, and the greatest hits of American supermarket shelves. You'll find Rombauer Chardonnay sitting next to Kendall Jackson Cabernet like they're old bunkmates, and a nod to Argentina via Layer Cake Malbec. Italy gets a token mention, but don't expect a regional tour. This isn't a wine destination; it's a wine safety net for the meat-forward crowd, and it does that job adequately.
Twenty-plus options by the glass is genuinely more than you'd expect here, and the price range of $9-$15.50 keeps things accessible for a round-up crowd. The selection mirrors the bottle list — familiar names, crowd-friendly styles — but the volume of pours means most people at the table can find something without defaulting to a beer.
Layer Cake Malbec, Argentina — $9/glass
At the low end of the glass price range, this is a ripe, fruit-forward red that holds its own against the beef-heavy menu without asking you to think too hard about it. Honest value for a classic steakhouse pairing.
Sonoma Cutrer Rosé of Pinot Noir
At a Western steakhouse where Cab reigns supreme, most tables are sleeping on this. It's a serious rosé from a reliable Sonoma producer — a genuinely good glass if you want something lighter without abandoning the occasion.
Kendall Jackson Vintner's Reserve Cabernet Sauvignon
You can buy this at your local grocery store for around $14 a bottle. Whatever they're charging here, you're paying the restaurant tax on one of the most ubiquitous Cabs in America. Order the Coppola or go a different direction entirely.
Rombauer Chardonnay, Carneros + Ribeye steak
Unconventional call, but Rombauer's butter-bomb style actually mirrors the rich fat of a well-marbled ribeye. It won't cut through anything, but it'll roll alongside the beef in a way that's indulgent and completely unapologetic.
The Bottom Line
Cattlemen's isn't a wine destination and it knows it — the list exists to serve the steak, and at these prices it mostly does the job without embarrassing anyone. Send a friend here for the history and the ribeye; the wine will be fine.
· Oklahoma City · Restaurant
Grey Sweater is doing something genuinely unusual for Oklahoma City — a tight, grower-Champagne-anchored list that rewards the curious and gently punishes the lazy. The markups aren't cheap, but the selection is real, and that counts for a lot when the alternative is another steak house wine list.

Edmond (North Metro) · Oklahoma City · Steakhouse
Boulevard Steakhouse is a reliable Edmond institution that takes its wine seriously enough to stock recognizable names at steakhouse-appropriate prices, but not seriously enough to challenge you. Send a friend here if they want a comfortable, familiar experience — just tell them to skip the Caymus and order the Jordan.

Broadway 10 is a reliable wine stop if California Cab is your comfort zone — the list is curated for the chophouse crowd and it delivers on that promise. Just don't expect to discover anything new, and keep an eye on that markup.

Uptown / Midtown-NW 23rd · Oklahoma City · Southwestern, New American
Cheever's is a genuinely good neighborhood restaurant that treats its wine list as a supporting player, not a headliner — and the steep markups mean you're paying a premium for the convenience of recognizable labels. Come for the food and the vibe; if you drink wine, stick to one glass and let the kitchen do the heavy lifting.

Steve Fields clearly puts its energy into the kitchen, not the cellar — and at these price points, that imbalance is hard to ignore. Order the Evesham Wood if it's still there, and otherwise come for the steak, not the wine list.

Greystone is a reliable, if predictable, steakhouse wine list — the kind where you can always find something decent but you'll rarely be surprised. Skip the Opus splurge, order the Paradigm, and you'll walk out satisfied.

Morton's San Diego is spending more energy on the wedge salad than the wine list, and it shows. Come for the steak, order carefully, and don't expect much beyond the obvious.
