Oscar’s Steakhouse inside The Plaza Hotel & Casinoin Downtown Las Vegas brought back its “All-Day Happy Hour” for one day only on November 12 in celebration of National Happy Hour Day.
The beloved, classic Downtown Las Vegas eatery offered its popular happy hour menu from 5 to 10pm, open to close, in its expansive lounge, featuring house red, white, and sparkling wines, well cocktails, and domestic beers at a discounted price.
“Headlining Oscar’s happy hour drink menu is “A Mindful Moment,” made with Licor 43, benedictine, green apple liqueur, and cranberry and lemon juices,” the press release about the celebration reads.

“The cocktail pays homage to November as the Month of Memories, and Oscar’s will donate $3 from each Mindful Moment cocktail sold in November to Keep Memory Alive.”
Oscar’s Happy Hour also features special pricing on popular appetizers, including its namesake chopped salad, Sal’s shrimp cocktail, steak fries, Oscar’s famous burger, and a 6 oz. skirt steak.

“Oscar’s Steakhouse features perfectly aged steaks cooked over a 600-degree grill,” Oscar’s Steakhouse’s website reads.
“Flavorful, tender, and juicy, the beef at Oscar’s is cooked to perfection and is accompanied by high-quality, made-from-scratch sides. The restaurant’s entrées and appetizers are inspired by family recipes and tailored to meet the tastes of even the most discerning diners. And of course, Oscar’s offers a wide variety of delicious, hand-crafted cocktails.”
The restaurant is named after Oscar Goodman, who served as the defense attorney for high-profile organized-crime figures, including Meyer Lansky, Frank “Lefty” Rosenthal, and Anthony “Tony the Ant” Spilotro, before serving as the charismatic, martini-loving three-term mayor of Las Vegas from 1999 to 2011.

The glass-domed space previously housed the Center Stage Restaurant, which was featured in the 1995 Martin Scorsese film Casino—a movie in which Goodman made a cameo as an attorney. The interior features classic Rat Pack aesthetics, panoramic views overlooking Fremont Street, and extensive memorabilia celebrating Goodman’s tenure as mayor and the city’s mid-century past.
Curated by the culinary team, led by executive chefs such as Benjamin Jenkins and Nicholas Sharpe, the menu highlights aged steaks cooked over a 600-degree grill, classic seafood, family-inspired sides, and signature drinks like the “Hizzoner” martini.
Oscar’s “All Day Happy Hour” gained popularity when it was first offered for a limited time this past summer. Outside of that summer and the Nov. 12th National Happy Hour special offer, Happy Hour is available daily in the lounge of Oscar’s Steakhouse from 5 to 7 p.m.
