He was mayor of the city from 1999 to 2011, and after that, his wife Carolyn became mayor in 2011. Before becoming the mayor of Las Vegas, Oscar Goodman worked as an attorney defending those allegedly associated with the mob. Goodman has appeared in several Las Vegas related films such as Casino and Bachelor Party Vegas.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Oscar\u2019s 80th at Oscar\u2019s Steakhouse<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The birthday celebration will then continue at <a href=\"https:\/\/www.plazahotelcasino.com\/entertainment\/\">Plaza Hotel &amp; Casino<\/a> where Oscar\u2019s namesake restaurant will be celebrating <a href=\"https:\/\/www.plazahotelcasino.com\/dining\/oscars-steakhouse\/oscar-goodmans-80th-birthday\/\">Oscar\u2019s 80<sup>th<\/sup> Birthday<\/a> with a special meal at <a href=\"http:\/\/www.oscarslv.com\/\">Oscar\u2019s Steakhouse<\/a>.
