There aren’t many living Vegas icons more popular than former mayor, and former mob attorney, Oscar Goodman. And that popularity is honored perfectly with Oscar’s Steakhouse, a classy restaurant with strong cocktails and classic steakhouse fare in the heart of Downtown Las Vegas.
First, you’ll want to be like Oscar by ordering the Hizzoner, a hot (but it’s a dry heat) martini made to Oscar’s liking—a mix of Bombay Sapphire gin, more Bombay Sapphire gin and a slice of jalapeño. If you polish it off before dinner arrives, you might not need another drink the rest of the evening.
Then dig into the dinner menu. Perfect starters include No Nose’s Mob Meatballs and Johnny Quinn’s crab cake served with a citrus remoulade. But if the jury’s out, you can’t go wrong with the shellfish platter filled with oysters, Maine lobster and king crab, with a shrimp cocktail.
For an entrée, opt for the steak. Delectable cuts include Oscar’s 24-ounce bone-in ribeye and the mammoth Jonny’s 44-ounce tomahawk. Pair with a side of crispy Brussels sprouts or Fat Herby’s mac and cheese and you’ll have had a great meal, no objections.
