A steakhouse named Cabernet better deliver on its promise and this one does — emphatically. Over 400 selections deep, with a dedicated sommelier running a Friday and Saturday prix fixe wine pairing dinner, Cabernet Steakhouse has been Alpharetta's wine anchor for 25 years. The name is not aspirational. It is a statement of fact.
Four hundred wines means you can get lost in this list, and that is the point. The cellar reflects a quarter-century of building relationships with distributors and producers. The prix fixe wine pairing dinners on Friday and Saturday at $60 — sommelier-guided with multiple courses — represent an investment in wine education that goes beyond just stocking bottles. Expect serious California Cabernet representation, Old World depth, and enough off-the-beaten-path selections to keep seasoned drinkers interested.
The by-the-glass program holds its own against the bottle list. With a sommelier on staff, the pour selections rotate with intention rather than just moving inventory. Ask for a recommendation — this is a staff that takes pride in matching wines to your steak order and your mood.
Friday/Saturday Prix Fixe Wine Pairing — $60
A multi-course meal with sommelier-selected wine pairings for sixty dollars at a 25-year-old steakhouse. The math alone is a value play, but the education and experience push it over the top.
Ask the Sommelier for an Off-Menu Pour
Twenty-five years of cellar building means there are bottles here that never made it onto the printed list. The sommelier knows where they are. A polite ask can unlock something special.
Trophy Cab at Top Markup
With 400 wines and a sommelier who knows the cellar, the worst thing you can do is default to the most expensive Cabernet on the list. The second and third tier hold better value-to-quality ratios.
Sommelier's Pick Cabernet + Prime Filet
Let the sommelier pair a Cabernet Sauvignon to your filet. This is a restaurant where the staff lives for this question and 25 years of experience means the answer will be specific, current, and right.
🔥 The Bottom Line
Cabernet Steakhouse is old-school Alpharetta at its best — deep cellar, dedicated sommelier, prix fixe wine dinners, and a quarter-century track record. If you care about wine with your steak, this is where you sit down.
