Star Wine Lists 2026: The World's Best Restaurant Wine Lists — Page 45

Kelly's Resort Hotel & Spa is the practical Rosslare choice when convenience, a polished hotel setting, a wine-aware dinner matter more than chasing a small independent dining room. Book it for an easy special occasion or resort-based evening; cross-shop Green Acres, Aldridge Lodge, or Marlfield House Conservatory Restaurant if the food proposition needs to lead the night.

Chato's Wine Bar is a practical Cafayate pick when the evening is about wine rather than a full dinner. The 2026 Star Wine List recognition gives the program credibility, the easy booking profile makes it useful for flexible plans after winery visits or before a restaurant meal.

Fairmont La Hacienda Costa del Sol is the stronger choice for travelers who want a polished resort base near San Roque rather than a Cádiz city stay. The recognition profile is strong, booking can be difficult, the format makes more sense for families or couples planning coast, golf, downtime than for travelers who want to walk out into old-town restaurants.

Oddball is a smart East Village pick for curious cocktail drinkers who want unusual flavor pairings without turning the night into a formal reservation project. Choose it for a small-group or date-night drink stop, not for outdoor seating, a full meal, or a rooftop scene.

Restaurant Francois is the Austin pick for a French dinner where the wine program is a real reason to book. It suits dates, celebrations, business meals better than casual group nights, especially for diners who want the meal to feel deliberate without relying on a confirmed tasting-menu format.

Book IMOK Smoke Dining if the point of the night is controlled smoke and meat-focused cooking with more structure than a casual grill meal. Michelin Guide attention in 2026 gives it a useful trust signal, but book ahead for prime times after its Shinsa-dong move.

Restaurant Ciccino is a practical Marseille pick for a composed lunch or dinner with a stronger wine signal than many easy-booking alternatives. Choose it for a paced meal, especially early evening; cross-shop Cédrat for clearer Mediterranean €€ value or La Femme du Boucher for a meat-focused table.

FELIX Kitchen & Bar holds back-to-back Michelin Plate recognition (2024 and 2025) and Star Wine List status, making it the strongest credentialed dining option on the Buda riverfront at Ybl Miklós tér. At the €€€ tier with Easy booking difficulty, it delivers a Mediterranean-focused kitchen and serious wine list without the waitlist friction of Budapest's starred rooms. A sound book for Castle District visitors or anyone wanting a non-Hungarian register for dinner.

Green Acres is the practical Wexford town pick when the night needs wine credibility, central access, an evening slot rather than a destination dining format. Book it for a flexible first visit or small-group dinner; choose Aldridge Lodge or Marlfield House Conservatory Restaurant instead if the brief is country cooking or classic hotel occasion dining.

Côte by Mauro Colagreco is a restaurant at Capella Bangkok on Charoen Krung Road.

Labombe by Trivet is the Trivet team's Mayfair follow-up: a wine bar and restaurant inside the COMO Metropolitan hotel with its own entrance, an eclectic menu spanning hot tongue buns to fire-cooked dishes, a wine list backed by genuinely knowledgeable service. More accessible to book than its reputation deserves, it sits in a useful gap between formal fine dining and casual neighbourhood eating.

Hos Moi is the Kristiansand pick to prioritize when the evening is wine-led and occasion-minded. The 2026 Star Wine List recognition gives it a clearer drinks-program signal than many local alternatives, while easy booking makes it practical for dates, business dinners, small celebrations.

Barcelona Wine Bar Reston is the right pick when the evening is built around wine, shared plates, a lively Reston Town Center room. It is easier and more flexible than a formal special-occasion restaurant, with Star Wine List recognition giving the drinks program useful credibility.

Au Tour du Vin works for a relaxed two-person wine night in Paris, especially if the plan is conversation over a credible glass rather than cocktails or a full dinner. Star Wine List recognition gives it a useful trust signal, but treat it as wine-first and keep the evening flexible.

Dionysus Mansion works for a flexible, wine-led meal in central Limassol, especially for dates, client dinners, or celebrations that need an easy booking. Its 2026 Star Wine List recognition is the main reason to choose it over more casual local options, while steak, hotel-bar, Italian, or Asian cravings are better cross-shopped against nearby peers.

Zioux is the Sandton pick for a polished, late-running night out rather than a quiet, food-first dinner. The 2026 Star Wine List recognition gives it a useful trust signal for wine-minded guests, the schedule makes it especially relevant for celebrations that may continue after the meal.

Växthuset is Stockholm's most relaxed plant-forward address with a drinks programme serious enough to earn Star Wine List 2026 recognition. The kitchen keeps it no-frills and purely plant-based; the bar counters with biodynamic wines and in-house fermentations. Book if you want to eat and drink well without ceremony. Easy to book, Hammarby Slussväg 2.

Bar Torino is a good Adelaide choice when the night should start with wine rather than a full restaurant booking. Its 2026 Star Wine List recognition gives it credibility for a glass-first plan, especially if Hutt Street is convenient. Go for a date, pre-dinner drinks, or a flexible catch-up; choose a restaurant-led option if food is the main event.

MUST Wine Bar is worth booking when the night should revolve around wine rather than cocktails. Its Star Wine List recognition gives it credibility for drinkers choosing carefully in Bangkok, the Thong Lo setting makes it a practical date or small-group stop.

WaterColor Inn is worth booking if you want a serviced Santa Rosa Beach hotel stay rather than a rental-house trip.

Delinat Weinbar is worth booking when wine is the point of the night and food is secondary. The 2026 Star Wine List recognition gives it a credible quality signal for Bern, but the available details do not support treating it as a full dinner destination. Better for dates, catch-ups, small groups than for a food-led evening.

BAK delivers Michelin Plate-level vegetable-forward cooking in a converted IJ waterfront warehouse, at €€€ and with easy booking; making it one of Amsterdam's better-value serious dinners.

Die Forelle holds a Michelin star and scores 95 points on La Liste, making it the most credentialed restaurant in Weissensee.

Book well in advance; demand is high and availability is limited.

Bandol sur mer holds a Michelin star in what is probably the smallest, least formal room at this tier in Berlin. Five vegetarian courses form the base menu, with optional fish and meat additions, the kitchen's fermentation-driven, vegetable-forward cooking justifies the €€€€ price. Book six to eight weeks ahead minimum; the room fills fast and the capacity is genuinely small.

Ca Na Toneta in Caimari is the booking for food-focused travellers who want to eat genuinely seasonal Mallorcan cuisine in the island's interior. Run by two sisters for more than 25 years, with a Michelin Plate and an OAD Casual Europe ranking of No. 559 in 2025, it serves a single rotating tasting menu in a two-house setting with a vine-covered terrace. Book ahead; evenings only, closed Wednesdays.

Andaz Macau is worth booking for a COTAI-based business trip where location, hotel polish, credible recognition matter more than a resort-as-destination stay.

Cross-shop The Ritz-Carlton, Macau for a more formal luxury splurge and JW Marriott Hotel Macau for a safer mainstream business-hotel choice.

The Farnam, Autograph Collection is the Omaha pick for a polished downtown stay when atmosphere matters more than shaving the rate. Book it for a celebration, business trip, or date-night base; cross-shop Hotel Deco or Hotel Indigo - Omaha Downtown if value is the bigger priority.

Rootstock is the Chicago pick when wine is the reason for dinner, not just a supporting detail.

The Monarch Steakhouse is the Aspen pick when a group wants a classic steakhouse dinner with a stronger wine signal than a generic resort-town room. Go early for an easier first visit, especially if conversation matters. Cross-shop Bosq for a more contemporary $$$$ meal or 7908 Aspen for a more nightlife-driven evening.

L'Alchimia holds a Michelin Plate (2024 and 2025) and, making it one of Milan's stronger cases for €€€ modern Italian dining.

Society is Melbourne's most occasion-ready room; a grand Collins Street venue with 3-Star World of Fine Wine accreditation and service that justifies the price. Book it when you need a room that matches the moment: milestone dinners, corporate evenings, group celebrations all land well here. Booking is easy relative to the city's harder tables.

THE VILLAS Caesars Palace is a strong fit when privacy, space, a quieter base inside the Caesars Palace ecosystem justify the spend. It is less compelling as a general luxury hotel choice; compare standard Caesars rooms, Bellagio, ARIA Sky Suites if the room will not anchor the trip.

Book The Pearl Hotel if the trip is a polished Alys Beach celebration and wine, setting, a compact town-center stay matter more than resort scale. Forbes Recommended and Star Wine List recognition give it stronger credibility than a generic boutique beach hotel, but families or activity-heavy groups should compare it with larger Gulf Coast resorts before committing.

Havana is Bar Harbor's strongest case for a deliberate dinner: a sourcing-led American kitchen from Chef Eric Brenner with a Star Wine List White Star, Pearl Recommended status for 2025. It is the right booking for food and wine travelers on an Acadia itinerary who want more than the town's usual coastal casual. Booking is Easy relative to its peer set.

Saint Urban in Flatiron holds a 2025 Pearl Recommended designation and a 2026 Star Wine List award; two credentials that make it worth booking for wine-focused dinners in Manhattan.

Bryggjuhúsið is a sensible Reykjavík pick when the night calls for wine-led conversation rather than a loud club or formal dinner. Its 2026 Star Wine List recognition gives it a clearer reason to book than many casual downtown bars, especially for a two-person evening where flexibility matters.

Fool's Errand is a sensible Divisadero pick when the night is about wine, conversation, a casual bar setting rather than a full restaurant plan.

ŻUK Restauracja is a practical Poznań pick when wine interest matters more than a published chef story or fixed menu format.

A Michelin Plate greenhouse restaurant at the back of a Richmond plant nursery, Petersham Nurseries Café delivers Italian-led, produce-driven cooking at £££; a price tier below most comparable London rooms.

Tom Harris and Jon Rotheram's St. JOHN-trained kitchen holds two consecutive Michelin Plates and an OAD ranking, while the ££ price point sits well below London's top-tier British restaurants. Book the first-floor dining room; the pie for two is the dish to anchor your order around.
