Wingman Metrics
Four wines. That's the list. Not four pages, not four regions — four bottles, one per category, and that's your lot. It reads less like a wine program and more like someone grabbed a case at a wholesale club and called it a day.
The list covers exactly one sparkling, one white, one rosé, and one red — a Felix Solís Prospero Brut, an Anterra Pinot Grigio, a Gerard Bertrand Rosé, and a Poggio Vignoso Chianti. These are all recognizable, inoffensive labels that show up at mid-tier restaurant accounts everywhere. There's no depth, no regional curiosity, nothing that reflects the Mediterranean and Middle Eastern identity of the kitchen. If you were hoping for a Greek assyrtiko or a Lebanese red to match the food, keep hoping.
Every bottle on the list is also available by the glass, which sounds generous until you realize the full list is four bottles. Pours run $9–$12, which is reasonable given the bottle prices, but the selection doesn't rotate and there's no evidence of any effort to keep things fresh.
The Bottom Line
Rina's wine list is an afterthought attached to what sounds like a genuinely interesting kitchen. The four bottles available are priced fairly enough, but there's no ambition here — no connection to the cuisine, no rotation, no reason to think anyone gave the wine program more than ten minutes of consideration. Order a cocktail or a glass of the Chianti and move on.

Terra Terroir is the kind of neighborhood spot that quietly over-delivers — a sommelier, a focused Old World list, and half-price bottles twice a week in a room that feels more Inman Park than Peachtree strip mall. We'd send a friend here on a Sunday without hesitation and tell them to ask the sommelier what they're excited about right now.

One Flew South is, without much competition, the best wine option inside a major American airport — and that's not entirely faint praise. The Argentina focus gives the list a point of view, the food is serious enough to warrant a real glass of wine, and the room actually makes you want to linger. Markups will be airport markups, so set your expectations accordingly and order the lamb ribs while you're at it.

Tuk Tuk is worth the trip for the Thai fried chicken and sticky wings — genuinely excellent food in a fun room. But if wine is your thing, you're better off leaning into their cocktail program, which is clearly where the care and attention lives. Come for the papaya salad; drink the cocktails.

Rock Steady keeps it simple and mostly gets it right — fair prices, every bottle available by the glass, and a few genuinely good producers mixed into a crowd-pleasing lineup. It's not a destination wine list, but it's a reliable one. If you're eating here, the Dr. Loosen at $15 is your move.

OK Yaki built a ten-bottle wine list that outpunches wine programs three times its size — every pick is intentional, the by-the-glass access is generous, and the pricing doesn't punish you for being curious. If you're eating here and defaulting to beer or sake, you're leaving the best part of the beverage program untouched.

Pasha is a genuinely fun night out — the atmosphere is lively, the food lands well, and the crowd is into it. But the wine program is operating in the background rather than earning its place on the table. Until there's a public list with real prices and identifiable producers, we'd recommend asking the server what's open and ordering a glass of whatever they're excited about — or just start with a cocktail and see where the night takes you.

Franks @ the Old Mill isn't trying to be a wine destination, and the list reflects that honestly — familiar labels, a few decent bottles tucked in, and no apparent effort to push guests toward anything adventurous. Without pricing data or a confirmed by-the-glass program, it's hard to fully endorse the wine experience here, but the Gessinger Riesling and the Gerard Bertrand Rosé are real options worth asking about. Come for the Mediterranean food, treat wine as a supporting character, and lower your expectations accordingly.

· Alpharetta · Mediterranean/Greek/Middle Eastern
Efendi's wine list is a competent, fair-priced selection that plays it safe with California heavyweights while quietly sneaking in a few Turkish bottles that are the most compelling things on the menu. If you're here, do yourself a favor and skip the Prisoner, grab the Kavaklidere Yakut, and let the kitchen do what it does. It's not a destination wine list, but it won't let you down either.

Persian Basket has put together a wine list that respects both its guests and its cuisine — fair pricing, real producers, and a by-the-glass selection that gives you options beyond the obvious. It's not a destination wine list, but it's the kind of list that makes a neighborhood restaurant genuinely better. If you're heading there for food, the wine won't let you down.
