Fia's wine list arrives with a clear agenda: this is a room that wants to pop Champagne. The bubbly section alone accounts for eight labels spanning from a $75 Prosecco to a $775 Dom Pérignon, and the white wine selections lean refined and food-forward. It's a polished list — but one that's been built for the aesthetic as much as the drinker.
Across 48 labels, the list skews heavily toward whites and sparkling, which makes sense for a Mediterranean kitchen but leaves red wine lovers scanning for options that simply aren't there in the sourced data. The white program is actually the highlight: you've got Vocoret Chablis ($95/bottle), Jean-Jacques Auchère Sancerre ($115/bottle), and a genuinely interesting Amorotti Trebbiano d'Abruzzo ($125/bottle) alongside showier bottles like Peter Michael 'La Carriere' Chardonnay ($295/bottle) and a Domaine Leflaive Puligny-Montrachet Premier Cru at a firm $995/bottle. The Champagne section is aspirational and rosé-forward — Billecart-Salmon, Ruinart, and Drappier all show up — but the markups across the board run hot. A Domaine Alex Gambal Aligoté at $70/bottle and the Bischöfliche Piesporter Goldtröpfchen Riesling Kabinett at $75/bottle are quiet standouts that suggest someone with real taste built this list, even if the overall range plays conservative.
By-the-glass options weren't available in our research data, which is a gap worth noting before you settle in. If the pours track with the bottle list, expect a handful of safe crowd-pleasers and maybe one or two of the Champagne options at premium pricing. Worth asking your server directly before committing.
The Bottom Line
Fia has the bones of a genuinely good wine program — thoughtful white selections, a few hidden gems, and a Champagne section that sets a mood — but steep markups and a list that doesn't stray far from the expected hold it back from greatness. Go for the Aligoté or the Trebbiano d'Abruzzo, skip the trophy bottles, and you'll drink well without feeling taken.

Roc South is a genuinely fun restaurant — the food sounds great and the vibe is undeniable — but the wine program doesn't give us enough to work with or get excited about. Until there's a verifiable list with real producers and fair pricing, let the bartender guide your evening instead.

Park 82 has a wine list in the same way a gas station has a wine selection — technically present, practically limiting. If you're a Pinot Noir devotee who doesn't mind paying restaurant markup for bottles you've seen at Kroger, you'll survive. Everyone else should probably lead with cocktails and ask what's on tap.

Tabla's wine list punches above its weight for an Asian restaurant in Atlanta. The white-heavy, aromatic-focused selection makes genuine sense with the food, pricing at the entry level is fair, and the BTG depth is real. We'd send a friend here for wine without hesitation — just order the Grüner first.

MCK isn't trying to be a wine destination — it's a bar and restaurant with a list built for toasting and crowd comfort. The sparkling program punches above the list's weight, the by-the-glass selection is generous, and the markups on still wines are steep but not outrageous. Send a friend here if they want Champagne and something easy to sip; send them somewhere else if they're chasing a wine experience.

Blue Moon Brewery & Grill is a beer bar first, second, and third — the wine list exists so your friend who doesn't drink beer doesn't feel stranded. If that's the situation, the Cava at $9 or the Elouan Rosé at $10 are perfectly fine. But if wine is the reason you're going out, go somewhere else.

· Atlanta · Thai
Pink Lotus has built a wine list that takes its cues from the food — acid-forward, bubbles-heavy, and genuinely curious — which is more than most Thai spots in town bother to do. Markups are fair, the by-the-glass selection is wide, and there are real finds here if you look past the Dom Pérignon showpiece bottles at the top. If you're eating Thai in Atlanta and you want something interesting in your glass, this list deserves your attention.

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.
