Wingman Metrics
You flip open the menu at Logan's Roadhouse and the wine section is basically an afterthought — a small cluster of mass-market bottles wedged between the cocktail specials and the Bud Light pitchers. This is a beer-and-a-shot joint that happens to stock a few wines because corporate said so. Manage expectations accordingly.
Six wines. That's the whole program. We're talking Graham + Fisk's Cab, Underwood Pinot Noir, Archer Roose Pinot Grigio, Imagery Chardonnay, Bollicini Sparkling, and La Vieille Ferme Rosé — every single one a recognizable grocery store or convenience-format brand. There's no regional story here, no discovery, no attempt to complement a menu built around beef. California and mass-market America have the floor entirely, and they're phoning it in. If you came hoping for even a single interesting producer, you're in the wrong building.
All six wines are available by the glass, which is technically the entire list, so calling it a 'by the glass program' is generous. There's no rotation, no seasonal thinking, and no evidence anyone has reconsidered these pours since the menu was last laminated. What you see is what you get, every night, forever.
La Vieille Ferme Rosé — null
It's the one wine on this list with actual heritage behind it — Perrin family, Rhône Valley, consistent quality at a low price point. In this context, it's as good as it gets. Pricing unknown, but even at chain markup it's the most defensible pour here.
Underwood Pinot Noir
Nobody orders Pinot Noir at a roadhouse steakhouse, and that's a shame because Underwood from Union Wine Co. is a genuinely drinkable, lighter-bodied red that actually holds up against the menu's grilled options better than the Cab will. It gets ignored, but it shouldn't.
Bollicini Sparkling
A no-name sparkling wine at a chain roadhouse in a strip mall is nobody's celebration. Save the bubbles moment for somewhere that deserves it.
La Vieille Ferme Rosé + Ribs
Sounds wrong, works fine. The rosé's dry fruit and mild acidity cut through the sticky-sweet BBQ sauce without fighting it — and it's cold, which on a Laredo summer night is the most important quality any wine can have.
The Bottom Line
Logan's Roadhouse is not a wine destination — it's a steakhouse chain where wine clearly wasn't part of the concept. Order a beer, order a cocktail, and save the bottle for a restaurant that's actually trying.
· Laredo · Italian
If wine matters to you at dinner, Laredo has better options than this. Olive Garden's wine program is a corporate formality — two labels do not a wine list make. Order the cocktail, enjoy the breadsticks, and save the bottle for somewhere that earned it.

· Laredo · Modern Mexican
Casa Azul's wine list has no business being this interesting for a modern Mexican spot in Laredo, and that's exactly why it earns a Wild Card. The list is small and the by-the-glass program is thin, but the bones are good — Patient Cottat Sancerre and Drouhin Pinot Noir don't end up on a 22-bottle list by accident. If you're eating here, skip the safe plays and lean into the whites.

· Laredo · Contemporary bistro
Lolita's Bistro is doing more with a 19-bottle list than most Laredo restaurants would bother attempting — the Domaine Delaporte Sancerre, the Barbaresco, and the Bolgheri Rosso tell you someone cares. Markups run steep across the board, especially at the top of the list, so bring a budget or lean toward the Albariño and Pinot Noir by the glass. Worth stopping in, worth ordering wine — just go in with eyes open on price.

· Laredo · New American / Latin Fusion
El Capataz Del Mar isn't a wine destination — it's a restaurant that happens to have seven bottles on a menu. The pricing is honest and the Garnacha options from AH-SO offer a slight spark of personality, but this list needs serious attention before it earns a real recommendation. Order a cocktail, or grab the white Garnacha if you want to say you tried.

· Laredo · Steakhouse
El Asador is clearly a destination for the food — the wood-fired steaks, the Tuétano al Piquín, the oysters — and the margaritas are probably doing heavy lifting at the bar. But the wine list is a placeholder, not a program. Five unlabeled, undated-for-rotation bottles at a polished steakhouse in 2024 is a miss. Come for the beef, order a cocktail, and hope someone eventually hands this list to someone who cares.

La Posada Hotel · Laredo · Steakhouse
The Tack Room isn't trying to be a wine destination, and it succeeds at being exactly what it is — a dependable hotel steakhouse list with some solid bottles hiding among the Cab parade. Order the Spanish or Argentine options, avoid the trophy-bottle markups, and you'll eat and drink just fine.

· Hoschton · Steakhouse
Jacks is a genuinely fun neighborhood hang with solid food, but the wine program doesn't match the ambition of the kitchen. If wine is your thing, call ahead or bring your own if corkage is an option — otherwise, lean into the cocktails and enjoy the patio. We'd love to revisit this rating if they ever put some real thought into the list.

East Point · Atlanta · Steakhouse
Malone's earns its loyal following on the strength of its pork chops and tenderloin, not its wine list. If wine matters to your meal, you may want to call ahead and ask what's available — or just lean into a cocktail and let the steak do the heavy lifting. This one's a food-first destination.

· Acworth · Steakhouse
AG Steakhouse earns its reputation as a go-to for celebrations and big nights out on Lake Acworth — but the wine program appears to be in service of the experience rather than a destination in itself. If you're splurging on the filet or the Oscar-style halibut, budget accordingly for the bottle too, and don't expect the list to surprise you. A solid place to drink wine; not a reason to come specifically for wine.
