“What happens here, stays here” is so yesterday. This city has a new tagline, according to O’Sheas bartender Tyrone Loukas.
“I say, ‘What happens in Vegas, starts with Tyrone,’” Loukas said. A pretty bold statement, but somehow, sitting across from Loukas and talking with him, you can’t help but believe it.
“Bartenders—we’re your first and last memory. And there’s nothing better (than someone saying) ‘You know what, Tyrone was the best part of my vacation,’” the Las Vegas native said. “If I don’t create a memory for you while you’re in town, then I haven’t done my job.” And Loukas’ job happens to be at one of the city’s wildest watering holes, in its brand-new location at The Linq. “O’Sheas is an institution in Las Vegas,” Loukas said. “It’s a one-stop party shop. There’s no better place to be than O’Sheas.”
Loukas, who also has an acting background, said he can’t help but be outgoing, “I was born to entertain,” said Loukas, who also has played the official role of Spider-Man for Marvel Comics at conventions and other special events. “I’m an extrovert. … I’m a little more outgoing than your average bartender.”
Irish Magarita
“I’m that person in Vegas that you want to get to know, but instead of going out with me, you just come to my bar. Like I said before, ‘What happens in Vegas, starts with Tyrone,” Loukas said.

Irish Margarita
“Everyone loves margaritas—we just add the Irish flair to a drink that everyone knows,” Loukas said. “I shake it when I make it.” What you’ll see Loukas shaking when making the Irish Margarita is a mix of Jameson Irish whiskey, Cointreau, lime juice and sweet and sour mix. While Loukas may have played Spider-Man, you’ll notice from his accessories his love for another superhero: Superman. He even pops beer caps with a Superman-branded bottle opener.
