H&W Steakhouse

H&W Steakhouse keeps over 500 selections with a deep bias toward Napa Valley and Bordeaux. This is a steakhouse wine list that knows exactly what it is: big reds for big cuts. But the depth goes beyond the obvious. The buyer stocks verticals from cult Napa producers and sneaks in enough Barolo and Rioja to reward anyone willing to read past the California section. The by-the-glass program rotates and consistently punches above the typical steakhouse pour.

Buckhead location with the kind of dark-wood, leather-booth ambiance that signals serious dining. The staff knows the list and can navigate you through the heavier sections without defaulting to the most expensive bottle. Service here is old-school Atlanta hospitality: attentive, knowledgeable, unhurried.

If you are a Cabernet person, this is your Atlanta headquarters. The Napa depth alone makes it worth the trip. But the hidden play is the Bordeaux section, where the markups are more reasonable than the California side and the quality matches or exceeds. Order the ribeye, ask about older vintages, and let the staff do their job.
