Wingman Metrics
You crack open a 69-page wine list with 850 labels and realize this isn't your typical Vegas steakhouse wine program. The breadth is staggering—serious Bordeaux depth, California heavyweights, and then curveballs like Chinese wines and 1,700 bottles of Japanese sake. This is a collector's playground disguised as a high-roller steakhouse.
The Bordeaux section runs deep with classified growths and premier crus that would make a Left Bank devotee weep. California gets proper respect with cult Napa cabs and benchmark producers. But the real story is the unexpected range: Chinese whites, Bordeaux blends, and even ice wines sit alongside over 50 Champagne labels including the Delamotte & Salon duo. The sake program alone—1,700 bottles—is more serious than most dedicated sake bars. This isn't a list built by a beverage manager ordering from a distributor catalog; this is a cellar curated by someone who actually geeks out on wine.
The by-the-glass program runs 25-35 pours, which is respectable for a list this deep. You're getting access to solid producers without committing to a $300 bottle, though don't expect any bargains—this is the Wynn. The glass pour quality matches the bottle selection: thoughtful, well-maintained, and rotated with enough frequency that you're not getting oxidized leftovers from last Tuesday.
Delamotte Champagne — $$$
Same ownership as Salon, same vineyards, fraction of the price. This is how you start a steakhouse dinner without blowing your whole budget before the crab cake arrives.
Chinese Bordeaux Blend
Most people skip past the China section to get to Napa. Big mistake. These are serious expressions showing what high-altitude Ningxia terroir can do with classic Bordeaux varieties—and they're conversation starters with your dinner companions.
Standard Napa Cab
The markup on recognizable California names gets brutal in Vegas steakhouses. You're paying Strip tax on bottles you can find at home. Explore the Bordeaux or Chinese sections instead where the pricing feels less punitive.
Japanese Sake (Premium Selection) + Maryland Blue Crab Cake
With 1,700 sake bottles in the cellar, skip the obvious white wine move. A clean junmai daiginjo cuts through the richness of the crab while highlighting the sweetness of the Maryland blue crab better than any Chardonnay.
The Bottom Line
This is a serious wine program wrapped in a Vegas steakhouse package. Yes, the markup stings—it's the Strip, what did you expect—but the depth, variety, and staff knowledge justify the splurge for special occasions. If you're here for the bone-in filet and want wine that matches the ambition, you're in the right place.
· Las Vegas · Steakhouse
Strip House's all-by-the-glass format is smart for a Vegas crowd that wants to explore without committing, and the list has more personality than most hotel steakhouses — the Testamatta and the Lingua Franca Chardonnay prove someone made actual choices here. Prices skew high at the top end, but the $15–$25 tier offers genuine quality. Come for the steak, stay for the glass pours, and skip the Kosta Browne unless the night calls for it.

Summer House is doing more with its wine program than it has to, and in Las Vegas that deserves genuine credit. Fair prices, a thoughtful by-the-glass roster, and a few genuinely interesting picks — the Grüner and the Selbach Riesling especially — make this worth exploring. It's not a destination wine list, but it's a reliable one, and that's rarer on the Strip than it should be.

Hughes Center · Las Vegas · Brazilian Churrascaria
The real story at Fogo de Chão Hughes Center is the Monday-through-Thursday deal: South American bottles under $150 go at half price, all day, in both the dining room and bar. That's a meaningful discount at a format where a table can easily work through a full bottle alongside the picanha parade. If you're going to drink wine here — and you should — plan your visit around that window.

South Point Casino · Las Vegas · Steakhouse
Silverado Steak House isn't trying to win any wine awards, and it doesn't need to — the list is fair, functional, and occasionally punches above its casino-floor weight class. If you're eating steak at South Point and want a solid glass without getting robbed, this list has your back; just stay away from the bottom shelf and head straight for the Davis Bynum or the Symmetry Meritage.

The Strip · Las Vegas · Japanese
Order the $21 glass of Kirinzan Junmai Ginjo, or the $50 Signature Flight if you want three saké side by side. If you prefer wine, the Faiveley Gevrey-Chambertin at $62 by the Coravin glass is the pour to look for. Confirm availability and prices, since the list is undated. This unrated guide covers the posted drinks list, not service, storage or markups.

Try the $60 half bottle of Cristom Pinot Noir or ask about the $60 Kerner, the lowest full-bottle price, or order the Azelia Barolo at $270 with the Dry Aged New York. Confirm vintages and prices, since the list is undated. This unrated guide covers the posted wine list, not service, storage or retail markups.
· 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.
