This was my first time dining at this Oscar's location. It was extremely busy on a Saturday night, but we were able to snag a table right away. There was a large table celebrating a pre Homecoming meal, and only one server that we noticed. Due to the busy evening, our server was a bit slower bringing out our drinks, and our food was only lukewarm-assuming it had been sitting for a bit before getting to our table. Nevertheless, we did enjoy our meal. I decided to do a build your own burger-chihuahua, American cheese, lettuce, tomato, & jalapeño-delicious! I didn't see an option for mayo/mustard/pickles, but my burger really didn't need it. I opted for Oscar's signature fries & asked for a side of bacon ranch to dip. Everything was very tasty! I would for sure come back on one of their specials nights.

I really like it at Oscars! It was quite busy on the night we decided to go, but we were able to land a table without waiting. Our waitress was kind and attentive, which was nice. We asked her a lot of questions. We tried the wings, which were so good that we are considering coming back on their Wing Wednesday. My burger was cooked exactly as I asked; medium rare. I always as for medium rare because it's so hard to achieve and when I say "medium" it's too overcooked for my liking. Typically when I ask for medium rare, it's never actually achieved. They definitely achieved it and I was impressed. My burger was juicy and delicious. Street parking. I'll definitely be returning!

Let me preface this by saying I am a huge fan of Oscars other location. This one is a little smaller and a bit busier especially on Wednesdays where they have there $0.50 wings. Be prepared to get there early or sit at the bar as it is first come first served. I highly recommend as a no frills and good food place as you will get great wings and be careful as they can get pretty spicy. Enjoy with a nice mystery beer and watch some sports as a solid place to enjoy food and watch a game.

Tikka masala wings, honey sriracha wings, sesame garlic wings, chipotle wings

Quick and fast service and a typical bar restaurant atmosphere. I would definitely do the sesame garlic and tikka masala wings again. Didnt really like the chipotle and honey sriracha flavors. Their tacos on Tuesdays are extremely good too!

Gordo Burger

Oscar's Winner's Circle is everything "Pub & Grill" wish it could be. Delicious, juicy burgers, great/friendly staff. I usually get the Gordo Burger but the Winner's Burger is also good

The bar

Such a good burger. Well seasoned, super juicy and cooked to temp, every single time.

8 pork and 2 steak tacos. Single tortillas rather than the normal double.

Probably the best burger in town when considering all factors. Size, quality, cooked correctly and price all top notch!! But today we talk about taco Tuesday. Hands down one of my favorite pork tacos in Milwaukee (the steak ones are good too). The flavor is amazing on the pork, they are small but that's y I ordered 10 of them last time and for only a dollar each still a great deal! I opt for a single tortilla on mine though. Give it a try you shouldn't be disappointed!

Taco Tuesday! $1 steak or pork tacos. My friends, you can't beat this deal! They also have a $3 mystery beer (usually something crafty), along with an amazing variety of tap beers (20 or so) and an extensive menu. The burgers and wings are what they are known for and they don't disappoint! The menu prices make you feel like you're in a time warp back to 2002. Seriously affordable and quality food here! It's a great spot to hang out, crush some good beers and eat some tasty grub. It's a place where you'll see all types of people, and it's always full because people know the combo of good food at good prices is hard to find these days. A casual joint that serves some great beer and food and always draws a crowd anytime of the week.

Build your own burger. I kept it simple: ghost pepper jack cheese, jalapeños, lettuce, tomato, and fried onions. So amazing.

So, real talk, I've been avoiding this review because I am selfish and I don't want people to know about my fave burger spot!! But I must. This place deserves your business! Oscar's Winner's Circle is absolutely related to Oscar's Pub near Potowatami casino....I'm just especially excited about this one because it's closer to my house! The atmosphere has been pretty chill whenever I have been in. The bar has an impressive rotation of new craft beer all of the time. Each month they feature a local brewery too, which I think is awesome. The bartenders are laid back and, as long as it isn't busy, they are more than happy to give you small samples of beer or offer you advice about the beer so you can be sure to pick a beverage you'll like. They also do a $2 "mystery" shot. IT's in a brown bag behind the bar, which is pretty fun. I got myself and my friend a mystery shot, (because, why not?) and it ended up being Limousine Rye - a fairly expensive bottle of Rye Whiskey! I asked if it was always a top tier alcohol and he said no! Apparently they just pick something exciting and fun. Who knows, maybe you'll end up with an espcially tasty $2 mystery shot....only one way to find out! The food is hot and fresh. The fries are thick cut and seasoned - none of that shoestring stuff. But it's the burgers that I keep coming back for: Juicy, thick beef patties perfectly seasoned and with generous toppings either currated on the menu or you can choose to build you own. I have built my own burger before (see picture), but I have had several of their own burgers and every time they have been wonderful. They also do a great job changing up the menu from time to time, so it doesn't feel stale if you come in often. Two thumbs way up for Oscar's Winner Circle. Great food, chill ambiance, and impressive beer selection. Get yo'self a burger!

**July 2025: Wednesday Lunch Visit**…read more While I was researching iconic food in Wisconsin I came across an item called Butter Burger which sounded so decadent and delicious. My friend and I were only exploring Milwaukee for a day so we wanted to make sure that we picked a good spot to try this region favorite. AJ Bombers came up consistently ranked on top for really great burgers. We came on a weekday so parking was pretty easy, but it is metered street parking. The restaurant is located at the corner of a large building and since we arrived right at opening we were seated right away. We ordered the following -Cheese Curds $9 - These were delicious. Nice and crispy, almost had an airfried texture to it so it tasted healthier than others that I've tried -Bomb Butter Burger $14 - The meat was very juicy and overall a good burger -Milwaukee Burger $12.50 - This was a fantastic burger and I think I preferred this to the Bomb Butter Burger. The flavors were more balanced IMHO -Tater Tots and Fries: The burgers all came with a side and I enjoyed both! They were freshly fried and served hot. The tots made me feel really nostalgic since those were things I remember eating growing up. The unfortunate news is that this restaurant despite all the accolades will be closing later in 2025. It's served Milwaukee for 16 years and while I'm bummed that they'll be closing their doors later this year I'm glad that I got enjoy one of Milwaukee's best. If you get a chance to check them out their decor also has a lot of personality.

I haven't been in years, but it was sad to see that they don't give out peanut like they used to and they were not all over the floor. There was a singular waitress there but she was nice and checked in on us. I ordered the Milwaukee Burger. I loved the onions on it and added tomato to it. I thought the burger itself was ok. Not too much flavor, I wish it was a little more pink. It would've been better if the bun was more toasted as well. I ordered onion rings, fried pickles, and cheese curds. Cheese curds and onion rings were really good, but the frickles were huge and every time I would take a bite the pickle would come out of the batter and I would be stuck with the plain batter alone. Overall loved the ambiance and I was miss Aj Bombers and its history.

They have great drink deals for happy hour, including $5 mules and old fashioneds. Menu-wise, they have your basic bar food. We all got burgers which were fine, nothing special. I was disappointed by the ranch chips, which are supposed to be covered with a dry ranch seasoning but unfortunately lacked any ranch flavor.

Nestled among a lively stretch of bars and restaurants, it has a fun atmosphere that makes it easy to settle in for a few hours. I stopped by during March Madness, and despite it being the middle of the day, the place was buzzing with fans watching the tournament. The bartender--who was the only one working at the time--did a phenomenal job keeping up with the crowd. While drinks occasionally took a little longer, she handled the rush with professionalism and a great attitude. One thing that really stood out was the bar itself; it's impressively long, possibly the biggest I've seen in a venue of this size. The food was exactly what you want from a sports bar: satisfying, flavorful, and the perfect complement to an afternoon of college basketball. I'd definitely stop back to watch another game.

Stopped in to LP with my kiddo and wife before the Jonas Brothers concert. I had seen their…read moredelicious food photos on Instagram and knew this would be a good spot for us. While other restaurants in the district had hour and a half plus waits, we practically owned the place sitting wherever we liked. On event days they have a reduced menu. As they were slow, the kitchen gracefully allowed us to place a regular menu Crustless Grilled Cheese with Tomato Bisque order for our kiddo. I ordered the LP Burger with bacon ($14 + $2.5 - double smash, sharp american cheese, shredded lettuce, fresh tomato, shaved red onion, LP sauce, potato roll) and my wife ordered the Potato Chip Crusted Chicken Sammy ($12 - honey mop glaze, mayo, shredded lettuce and pickles). The bar has a fair amount of good bourbons and at decent prices for being in the deer district, such as the double neat pour of Stagg I had. There was one bartender/server for the place, but she knew how to hustle while still being super friendly. The interior could use some art on the walls, but is bright and clean otherwise. The food was delicious and presented very well. That bacon I paid extra for? Oh my goodness. Thick cut, perfectly cooked, so dang good. Usually I regret adding bacon but here it is a must. My 8-year-old kiddo, who is practically a vegetarian at this point, devoured her grilled cheese and half of the big bowl of soup. I never even saw my wife's chicken sammy, so you know it was good when it goes down that fast. Thankfully as our food arrived the place started to fill, as they deserve to be filled! I want to come back on a non-event day to try the shrimp poboy, their house dry rub wings, as well as on the weekend for their brunch.

LP MKE: This is a relatively new bar/restaurant that opened near Fiserv Forum in August of 2023…read more The name serves a dual purpose as it stands for Local Pub (LP) as well as a reference to the building's past as a record store (LP was a type of record that stands for long playing or long play). I dined at the restaurant as part of a wedding rehearsal dinner, and they had a BYO burger bar. The potato bun was soft, perfectly chewy, and had hints of potato and butter. As for the smash burger patty it was pleasantly crispy but still juicy. Staff were attentive and friendly. Doughboy approved! Only reason for four instead of five is no premium or out of the box toppings (cheese curds, macaroni and cheese, fried egg, etc..) were offered. Doughboy_Food_Reviews
