Mrs BV and I don't eat out frequently, and it's usually just the two of us. Somehow, a bottle of wine is never the right amount. We never disagree on what to order, it's just the amount - I'd like to find wine that comes in 1.5 bottle sizes on restaurant menus.
Funny enough, we don't have that problem at lunch. A half bottle is almost always just the right size, although that limits selection quite a bit.
We always order by the glass because a single wine rarely pairs well with every course on the table.
