Wingman Metrics
You're here for the pizza — obviously — but the wine list doesn't embarrass itself. It's short, approachable, and priced like they actually want you to order a bottle with your slice. No pretense, no ceremony, just decent wine in a laid-back pizza joint.
Thirteen to fifteen bottles covering California, Australia, Italy, and New Zealand — this is a hits-only roster with zero deep cuts. You've got Cline Cab, Noble Vines Merlot, Barossa Valley Estate GSM, and the Yealands Sauv Blanc holding down the mainstream fort. There's nothing adventurous here and no old-world depth to speak of, but for a Fargo pizza spot, the range is more than respectable. The Barossa GSM is the one bottle that hints at someone caring just a little more than average.
Nine options by the glass is genuinely generous for a pizza place — three house pours plus six named selections including the Substance Chardonnay, Mezzacorona Pinot Grigio, and Yes Way Rosé. The rotation appears static rather than seasonal, but having this many real options alongside a pizza menu beats the usual two-bottle approach. Summer Water and Yes Way Rosé covering the pink category tells you exactly who the audience is, and there's nothing wrong with that.
Barossa Valley Estate GSM Blend — $
A Grenache-Shiraz-Mourvèdre from the Barossa on a pizza list in North Dakota is a minor miracle. It's the most interesting bottle on the menu and almost certainly priced to move.
Substance Chardonnay
Most people at a pizza spot default to red or skip wine entirely — but Substance (from Charles Smith's Washington program) is a real Chardonnay with some actual structure, not the buttery bomb the label might suggest to the uninitiated.
Villa Pozzi Moscato
Sweet, low-alcohol, and better suited to a dessert shelf at a grocery store than a wood-fired pizza dinner. Nothing technically wrong with it, but there are far better calls on this list.
Barossa Valley Estate GSM Blend + Puff The Magic Dragon
A spicy, punchy pizza calls for a wine with enough fruit weight and savory backbone to keep up — the Barossa GSM's dark fruit and peppery edge are built for exactly this kind of heat.
✔️ The Bottom Line
Rhombus Guys isn't a wine destination, but it doesn't need to be — the list is honest, fairly priced, and functional enough that you won't be stuck drinking something you regret alongside a great pizza. Send a friend here for the food and tell them to grab the GSM.
South Fargo · Fargo · Italian-American Chain
Come for the breadsticks, stay for the pasta, but don't come for the wine. Olive Garden Fargo's list is exactly what you'd expect from a national chain that treats wine as a revenue line, not a program — and in Fargo, you deserve better options.

West Fargo / I-94 Corridor · Fargo · American Steakhouse
LongHorn West Fargo isn't a wine destination, and it's not trying to be — but the pricing is fair, the by-the-glass range is workable, and you won't be stuck drinking bad wine with a good steak. Send a friend here for the ribeye; just remind them to skip the KJ and order the Cab.

Come for the margaritas, the table-side guac, and the fajitas — the wine list is not the reason to be here. If your group insists on wine, Austin Hope is the one pick worth your time; everything else is just filler.

Brewhalla Food Hall · Fargo · Seafood / Wine Bar
Mangata is the kind of place that shouldn't work on paper but absolutely does in practice — a sommelier-curated wine list inside a food hall, next to a raw bar, in Fargo. Send your friends here, and tell them to ask about the Tondonia.

Rosewild is the kind of wine program that shouldn't exist in a hotel restaurant in Fargo — and yet here we are. Wednesday night, half-price bottles, a thoughtful list, and a kitchen that actually gives the wine something to work with. Get there.

Würst Bier Hall is a genuinely fun place to eat and drink in Fargo — just don't make wine the reason you go. Stick to the beer program, which is clearly where the care and attention lives, and treat the wine list as emergency rations.
