Best Wine Lists in Mississippi

Sea Grapes Wine Café

· Biloxi · Wine Bar / Small Plates

The Lazy List

Sea Grapes Wine Café has a name that promises more than it delivers — if you're here for wine, the Minuty rosé or the Taittinger are your only real reasons to engage with the list. Otherwise, order a cocktail and let the list be someone else's problem.

Salute Italian Restaurant

· Biloxi · Italian

The Lazy List

Salute's wine list is a placeholder, not a program — safe brands, steep markups on the top end, and zero sense that anyone consulted an Italian wine map before printing the menu. Order the Chianti, skip the La Crema, and don't expect the staff to steer you anywhere interesting.

The Rackhouse Steak & Spirits

· Biloxi · Steakhouse

The Reliable

The Rackhouse is a reliable dinner out on the Mississippi Gulf Coast — great for a steak and a bottle of something crowd-pleasing, less ideal if you're chasing anything interesting in the glass. Send your friends here for the vibe and the beef; just go in with modest expectations on the wine front.

Jackson's Steakhouse

· Jackson · Steakhouse

The Reliable

Jackson's Steakhouse has a wine list that takes Champagne seriously — rare for Mississippi and worth noting. The markups are steeper than we'd like, but the range and quality of producers means you can still find a smart bottle if you know where to look.

Bull's Restaurant – Golden Nugget Biloxi

Casino District · Biloxi · Steakhouse/American

The Reliable

Bull's is a reliable casino steakhouse wine list — not adventurous, not cheap, but staffed by someone who cares and stocked with bottles that hold up. Send a friend here if they're already at the casino; don't drive to Biloxi just for the wine.

Bubba Gump Shrimp Co. – Golden Nugget Biloxi

Golden Nugget Casino / East Biloxi · Biloxi · Seafood / American

The Lazy List

This is a theme restaurant inside a casino — wine is an afterthought and the list proves it. Order a frozen cocktail, enjoy the Forrest Gump trivia cards, and save your serious wine drinking for literally anywhere else.

Outback Steakhouse – Biloxi

Popps Ferry / North Biloxi · Biloxi · Steakhouse

The Lazy List

Outback Biloxi's wine list is a corporate artifact — predictable, overmarked, and built for people who aren't really thinking about wine. If you're here for the steak, order the La Crema or Penfolds and move on; just don't come expecting anything more than that.

Olive Garden Italian Restaurant – Biloxi

Popps Ferry / North Biloxi · Biloxi · Italian-American Chain

The Lazy List

Olive Garden's wine list exists to check a box, not to make you a better drinker. Grab the Chateau Ste. Michelle if you want something worth finishing, but honestly — nobody's coming here for the wine, and the list knows it.

The Toasted Yolk Cafe – Biloxi

Cedar Lake / North Biloxi · Biloxi · American Breakfast & Brunch

The Lazy List

The Toasted Yolk is a solid breakfast spot that has no business being reviewed for its wine program — and that's really the point. Come for the omelets, order a mimosa if they've got one, and don't expect the wine list to do any heavy lifting.

The Sicilian II

Pass Road / North Biloxi · Biloxi · Italian and Pizza

The Reliable

The Sicilian II isn't a wine destination, but it doesn't need to be — it's a solid neighborhood Italian with a sensible, fairly priced list that does the job well. Send a friend here if they want a good pizza and a decent glass of Chianti without overthinking it.

The Reef Biloxi

Beach Boulevard / West Beach · Biloxi · Casual Seafood and American

The Reliable

The Reef is not your wine destination — it's your seafood destination that happens to have a decent enough wine list to keep things moving. Send a friend here for the po'boys and the Gulf views; just don't expect them to call you afterward raving about the Pinot.

Cora's Restaurant Bar

Beach Boulevard / White House Hotel · Biloxi · Seafood / American

The Reliable

Cora's is a perfectly fine place to have a glass of something cold while looking at the Gulf, but don't come expecting a wine program that matches the hotel's historic ambition. Stick to the bubbly by the bottle, order the seafood, and enjoy the view.
