We came here for the first time after hearing great things and reading glowing reviews. Unfortunately, our experience didn't match the hype. Our food was prepared incorrectly twice, and we ended up not eating. Really disappointed, especially given how much we were looking forward to it. read more

Oscars has become one of our top spots in Milwaukee for a burger. The bun is fluffy, the burger is delicious and the toppings have a Mexican flair that are unique and very tasty! Toss in the hand cut fries and extensive beer tap menu and you will absolutely leave satisfied at a reasonable price. read more

Tried Oscar's Pub & Grill for the first time and was extremely impressed! They are known for their burgers, however, they have other options as well! Their food is also very reasonably priced for the amount of food you get. The staff was very friendly and our food came out in timely manner. This would be a great spot before a game because it is more of a bar vibe so very casual. They also have a ton of beers on tap! Overall would recommend checking this place out! read more

I enjoy some of the menu items. The drinks are decent. We enjoy sitting at the bar. It gives us direct access to the bartender, to study the bottles and to occasionally glance at the tv screens. The wifi needs to be serviced. Remove the free wifi text and passcode if it does not work. read more

This is the go-to place for hamburgers. EXCELLENT Food and prices. Prompt service, welcoming atmosphere. Welcoming Staff.

I came here after getting the craving for a burger as well as reading some community lists of "Milwaukee's Best Burger." I was going to wait to write this review until I tried a few more places, but I could not wait! In fact, I went back again! Oscar's definitely deserves to be on people's radar and favorites list. From the service to the ambiance here, it's a great spot to chill out, have a drink, and definitely enjoy one of Milwaukee's Best Burgers. I decided to sit at the bar while I was here and the staff are very friendly and attentive. The burger is definitely one of the best I've had anywhere. I'll be coming back again and again! read more

Best place in Milwaukee to grab a burger and a beer. The food is absolutely amazing and the price is right I make a point of stopping every time I'm in town. Absolutely love it!! read more

The burgers were amazing and the fries were delectable! The service was great! The waitstaff was so kind! I highly recommend for anyone looking for a tasty burger in downtown Milwaukee! read more

No shot this place is real, they gotta get one in Appleton. The food was really good tbh, and so affordable (less than $10 each). My girlfriend and I went before a brewers game and the free shuttles are great, I forgot my bag on the shuttle and they took care of it. The waitress was nice and came over a good amount, food was pretty fast as well and even the inside was good vibes. Next time I want to eat outside, I think it was a bit cold though when we went read more

I do not enjoy being negative, but I relish being honest. Oscar's was disappointing on several levels. Friends were visiting from out of town and wanted burgers. My first choice was always Sobelman's, but I decided to try Oscar's since he came from the kitchen at Sobelman's. The place behaved disorganized from the moment we walked in. The bartender came around and said, "Sit in the back." We did, and eventually, a young man came over to take drink orders. My wife ordered a ginger beer that never showed up. I was compelled to walk up to the bar and ask for it. It was the third request. Oscar's wasn't crowded. The burgers were so-so and lacked flavor. The fries weren't particularly tasty. Oscar's was nothing like Sobelman's; it was not in the same ballpark. I was embarrassed to bring my friends here. Oscar's must have been sold, or Oscar is missing in action. read more

Oscar's Pub & Grill - Best burger I have ever had in Milwaukee. Lived here 40 years. Nothing compares . Great service. Prices are right . - New American Near Me - Milwaukee, Wisconsin

Honestly the best burger in Milwaukee hands down. The service is incredible and French fries and sides compliment the dining experience. Also a great place to get dollar tacos on Tuesday when you dine in. Never had anyone I recommended to dine there complain about their experience. Keep it up read more

Oscar's Pub & Grill - I recommend anyone that enjoys a great burger comparable or better than the best restaurants and bars around Wisconsin. - New American Near Me - Milwaukee, Wisconsin

The service here was great. Walked in with a party of 10 and the staff was accommodating and quickly sat us at a large table. There were many customers at the restaurant who were sitting at the bar and watching sports. I ordered the Big O and it was good value. So much food for $10. Burger, fries, and a side of guac. Burger was cooked to order, and was a perfect medium rare. Burger wasn't anything special, but it was a good environment to hang out to enjoy some good food and drinks! read more

I had no idea this gem was tucked into the area! Friends were so excited to visit and have "the best burger" and it didn't disappoint. I don't eat pork, so I didn't wind up with their top seller, but the mushroom and Swiss burger was perfect. The space has a great atmosphere, and though it's not large, there seems to be plenty of seating for a crowd. Can't wait to go back again soon when we're back downtown. read more

Stopped here because we heard they have some of the best burgers in Milwaukee. They absolutely did NOT disappoint! The burger was well seasoned, well cooked and the topping combinations were to die for! The fries and onion rings were also stellar. They have a big beer selection and the ambience is a warm and welcoming classic Milwaukee bar. Definitely don't skip this one! read more

Easily the best burgers in town and with that said very affordable. You pay more at the big name national franchise places and don't come close to these burgers. Also have nice specials with taco Tuesday and a wing day. read more

Came here with friends/coworkers during the week. The staff were all very friendly! It was not overly busy. The bar is a nice space with a decent amount of seating. I think I may have had too high of expectations after reading so many 5 star reviews for this place and hearing others talk about it as well. I ordered a build your own burger with fried onions, Swiss cheese and mushrooms (medium). The burger was okay, but my expectations were that it was going to be the best burger I ever had. It didn't have a lot of flavor in the beef. Maybe I was expecting too much. The seasoned fries were very good! I am sure I will try it out again eventually. read more

I came to Oscar's today since I am celebrating National Burger Month and my birthday month. Oscar's is a little hole-in-the-wall joint. If you drive too fast, you'll miss it. They're right down the street from the Horticultural Domes. When you walk in, you can seat yourself. The vibe of the place is very chill. I ordered The Big O. My goodness! It's a huge burger. I was put into a food coma after eating this bad boy. Good flavor and excellently cooked. You're doing yourself a disservice if you don't come to Oscar's. read more

Oscars has been a mainstay for me since 2012. Once in a while I just need to get a 'Big O' burger and it NEVER disappoints. Looking forward to great food? The search ends at Oscars! read more

Its 5 stars because 10 wasnt an option. The burgers were the best and the staff was super friendly and engaging! Definitely will be back when in Milwaukee again. read more

When in Milwaukee, we always go here. This is our favorite dive to get a great burger and fresh-cut fries.

You talk about walking into a bustling place! Add in a juicy burger and you're off to the races for a good time. The burgers have great flavor and there's something for everyone on the menu. read more

Food (burgers) are always great, I can order the burgers how i like, Medium Rare. When it's busy it can be difficult to get a waitress/waiter. But worth the wait. I love the outdoor setting at the back (porch). Delicious Food! read more

We found this place on Yelp and thought we would give it a try because it was close to our hotel. The burgers were delicious. Great taste they toasted the buns. The service was tremendous they was extremely busy and they worked as a team to take care of us. If you are in Milwaukee give Oscars a try. read more

Great burgers. Great wings. Amazing margaritas. Gets busy. Expect a line summer evenings.

The last two times I was there I'm bringing friends in from out of town, today we sit at the bar and we order something to drink. I got an Arnie Palmer I took one drink and it didn't taste right so I asked for a coke, the bartender grabs the gun and pours me a coke from the fountain,I took one drink and it was off. The color was off the taste was off and so I asked for a bottle of root beer and finally got a beverage that tasted like it should. After a wait the food arrived my burger was good (not great) but the fries were limp and wimpy!! The bill arrives and the bartender had both of the bad drinks on the bill and when I asked about it and said those should be removed from the bill he was arguing with me that the drinks were fine and proceeded to pour another coke from the gun and said I'm welcome to try another one. He said the drinks were just fine but since I didn't like them he was gonna charge me for them. I WILL NEVER STEP FOOT IN THAT PLACE AGAIN CHEAPSKATE P.O.S bartenders are garbage and have no place in the food industry Run far away run run run from this crappy place and get a good burger somewhere with friendly staff that actually care for the people that come in and bring friends and family in with them to dine. OSCARS CAN HIT THE DIRT !!!! read more

This is a hidden gem on the south side of Milwaukee. My partner and I had strawberry margaritas. I had the big gringo for dinner with a fried egg added on top. It was delicious. Couldn't even finish the burger lol. The prices are reasonable and the customer service was excellent. Very attentive, food came out fast, and the atmosphere was chill. I definitely recommend you check them out! read more

Oscars has by far the best burgers in the Milwaukee area. Living in Chicago, we tend to head up to Milwaukee a lot for weekend trips and to attend sporting/concert events and also hitting up The Potawatomi casino as well and Oscars is always a go to spot for us. This past visit to Oscars was no different. I built my own burger this time with smoked Gouda cheese, bacon, lettuce and tomato and my girlfriend had the Big O burger which was just amazing. All of the burgers here are huge and I can never finish the whole burger in one sitting so you'll definitely have leftovers to take home. I love the fries as well as they still have a little bit of the potato skin on them which is old school and they are crispy and just salted right. If anyone is looking for a solid burger place in the Milwaukee area, you should hit up Oscars!!! read more

HUGE burgers in any combination you like. Have to cut in half to be manageable. Good prices.

Was open late, service was great. Food was outstanding as well. Cheese curds hit the spot. Beers on tap, cold drinks and the music was not too loud. Welcoming atmosphere. read more

Oscar's is a laid back burger joint with a great selection of beers and rotating taps. They are known for their killer burgers - The Big O is their pride and joy - it's loaded and definitely made me happy to sink my teeth into! They don't have a very robust menu outside of the burgers and some sandwiches, but they know what they are and they do it well. And the prices are insanely cheap! Go for a burger, fries and a cold beer on their spacious patio. You'll thank me later. read more

When visiting Downtown Milwaukee I was looking for a local burger place and Oscar's was beyond delicious! They have a variety of burgers and beers with great prices and really friendly staff! Located right outside the busy downtown area, Oscar's is a great location to stop at for a quick bite to eat or to enjoy their bar area! I can't wait to go back to enjoy a different burger! read more

We saw a lot of good reviews on their burgers so decided to try! Called and ordered for pickup and paid at the restaurant. Easy and smooth process. The burgers are thick and flavorful. I like my Big Hongo a lot but wished there could be more mushrooms. The basket is very good - everything is very crispy and yummy. The portion size is big and the price is very reasonable. read more

I came In tonight debating whether I go for their TASTY burgers or take a risk and try the fish fry... well to my disappointment I selected the fish fry. Frozen fish, foul taste, over deep fried! Will NOT be ordering again. Service was good,my man got the big gringo and of course was delicious! He was kind of enough to share his burger as I couldn't finish even one of the 3 filets!! Not impressed at all! read more

We had high hopes for our first time visit to Oscar's, but we were super disappointed in our experience. The two burgers that were ordered were severely undercooked. We showed the server who looked horrified at the burgers and took them away without saying anything. She came back with the same burgers in about 2 minutes and they were taken apart, put on the grill and re-slapped together with the original toppings and cut up bun for us to try eating again. One was cooked enough to be edible and the other was still like raw meat. We didn't eat the bottom buns because they were soaked in red meat juice and mushy. The person I was with is not someone who normally cares about how rare meat is, so it worried me when he appeared apprehensive to eat his. No offer of a discount or any kind of minor apology given for the sad state of these burgers. I remember the days when a restaurant would offer some sort of voucher or something, but this place seemed like they couldn't care less if our food was terrible or not. Never again. read more

Warning the food here may give a phase of Euphoria that may ultimately lead to the Itis or in medical terms Postprandial somnolence. I'm going to start off saying this is the best burger spot I've been to in Milwaukee. The burgers can be summed up in 3 words: Delicious, Big, and Cheap. Now what's the vibe like in here? Honestly I can't remember because I was so infatuated by the burger I forgot. However, talking to my friend who comes here often she informed me it's a very chill spot for the locals. So I ordered the Big O burger. I was shook how big the burger was. The sheer feeling of awe at the size of it, was honestly the last thing I can remember before being engulfed in a state of bliss. I'm honestly out of words of what to say for this place besides the burgers are amazing. Ok I know right now you are probably thinking "This Abe guy is definitely over exaggerating how good this place is." My answer to you is try it our for yourself and let me know if I'm overhyping it or not giving it enough hype! read more
