Why go
Belle & Grey is the Wayzata pick when the meal needs a polished room and a wine program with credibility.

About Belle & Grey
Belle & Grey is a Wayzata venue with a casual dress code and a Wine Spectator Award of Excellence for 2026. It is a sensible choice for diners who value wine recognition and want a Wayzata option to compare with nearby venues.
The Wine Spectator Award of Excellence in 2026 is the clearest distinction here. That recognition can be a useful signal for diners who care about wine, but it should not be stretched into claims about the full beverage list, the dining-room style, or what kind of meal Belle & Grey serves without checking the venue's current information.

Use Belle & Grey when you want a Wayzata venue with casual dress expectations and a Wine Spectator Award of Excellence. If you are comparing choices, Baja Haus and ninetwentyfive are other options to consider, while Giannis Steakhouse may fit a different kind of plan.
Do not assume specifics such as bar seating, counter seating, private dining, takeout, delivery, allergy accommodations, or a particular menu format. If any of those details matter to the meal, confirm them with Belle & Grey before you go.
The right timing is when the confirmed facts match your needs
The key planning points are straightforward: Belle & Grey is in Wayzata, the dress code is casual, it has a 2026 Wine Spectator Award of Excellence. If those points are enough for your plans, it belongs on the shortlist.

Restaurant context
How It Compares
Choose Belle & Grey when wine is part of the reason for dinner. Against ninetwentyfive, it reads as more occasion-driven; ninetwentyfive is the more flexible all-purpose pick if the group wants a broader, lower-pressure meal in Wayzata.
Baja Haus is the better choice for a casual, higher-energy night, while Giannis Steakhouse is the safer move for diners who want classic steakhouse cues. Belle & Grey makes more sense when the bottle list and quieter pacing matter more than a familiar category.
El Bodegon and Clay Oven sit outside the immediate Wayzata set, so they are better cross-shops when cuisine direction matters more than staying on Lake Street. For an easy local booking with a celebration feel, Belle & Grey stays the practical choice.
