'''Oscar's Restaurant''' is a [[Brownsville]] eatery located at 2805 West [[Cervantes Street]]. It was opened in the early 1940s as the '''Brownsville Restaurant''' by [[Oscar Woerner]]. It was soon renamed Oscar's for Woerner, whose pancakes earned him the moniker "hot cake king." The restaurant was purchased in [[1980]] by [[Helen Rollo]], who is still sold the ownerbusiness in September of 2015 to the Ashcraft family. The Ashcraft's are now trying to restore the restaurant to what it may have looked like back in [[1946]].

The restaurant seats up to 300 in the main dining room and an additional 45 in the rear room available for private parties. The décor is dominated by a large mural on the eastern wall, several stained glass pieces that adorn depicting what [[Joe Patti's]] looked like many years ago. The exterior has been recently repainted and old world style decals added to the southern exterior windowson the front of the building subtly giving a design cue of what direction the renovations are going. On [[February 15]], [[1978]], and shortly after 1 a variety of carved wood sculptures throughout.
