Father’s Day Ideas

 
     
 
     
 

This Sunday is Father’s Day and our dads are just as important as our mothers.  So whether it is your father, stepfather, grandfather or a man who has been like a father to you, here are some ideas to show how important they are to you and how much you appreciate them.

 

If for some reason you have to celebrate Father’s Day early, Becker’s Steakhouse will be treating dads in a special way this year as they celebrate Father’s Day on Friday, June 13th and Saturday, June 14th.  On both days, dads can enjoy a “King Cut (22 oz.) Prime Rib Dinner,” for $21, in addition to enjoying 2 for 1 beverages.  Becker’s Steakhouse is an upscale restaurant, cocktail lounge and piano bar set in a classic, “Sinatra-esque” Las Vegas atmosphere. 

 

Hours are Lunch daily from 10:30 a.m. – 3 p.m; Dinner Tuesday through Thursday, 3 p.m. – 11 p.m., Friday, 3 p.m. – 12 midnight and Saturday, 4 p.m. – 12 midnight; Happy Hour, Tuesday – Saturday, 4 p.m. – 6 p.m.
