My favorite burger – I have tried a couple of burgers in LA, and this so far has been my favorite. I love the burger and sauce they put on it. The fries come with a delicious garlic sauce. The beer selection is so amazing that sometimes you can't figure out what to get. The room is small, and PACKED. I guess the secret's out about this place. But, that is a drawback to it.
Great food, horrible seating arrangement – Their burger and sweet potato fries are unbelievably delicious, however the fact that there is no waiting list, no hostess, and no reservations, are the reasons I did not give this place a 10. Here, there is no such thing as "first come, first served." You have to hover around a table while people are still eating and have to practically jump on their seat before they even stand up in order to get a table. Even though you might have been waiting there first, the table essentially go... read more
best burger & fries – the office burger with a side of yam fries is a must! the bartenders are very knowledgeable about each beer, and make great recommendations! they have a really nice peach cidar and hazelnut beer which have become the usual when coming here! there's usually a line during the weekdays, but i've never had to wait during a weekend. the building is really small, so it's hard to snag a table to eat sometimes.
I'm somewhat speechless... – ...but I'll get beyond that long enough to say, OH MY HOW GREAT IS THE FATHER'S OFFICE BURGER!!!! It's in a league all its own. Must be experienced. The beer and wine list is pretty impressive as well. There are stacks of trivial pursuit cards around the place for patrons to play while they wait/eat/drink. Fun, relaxed atmosphere. Definitely give it a try!
Bring your megaphone – Let's cut down to the chase Is the burger good? you're damn right it is but if you think you can just pop in, grub on a burger and make a show... it ain't gonna happen. You'll be lucky to eat while you're sitting down. not to mention contending with a room full of maniacs just to get your order placed. Being nice won't get you noticed. But... believe-you-me... this is definately a burger worth tasting. NOT TO LEFT OUT are the sweet potatoe fries that are indistinguishable from small dougnut sticks. If ... read more
Great Beer Selection – We went to Father's Office on a Tuesday night and were incredibly surprised at how crowded it was. After making our way to the bar, I was excited to see that they carried Ommegang Hennepin (a belgian ale from Cooperstown, NY; very hard to find on tap in SoCal). We ordered burgers and sweet potato fries, hoping to find a seat by the time the food arrived. Alas, it was too crowded, so I asked two gentlemen at a table for 4 if we could join them. Luckily they were Canadian and wanted to meet real LA peopl... read more
best burger ever! – i almost don't want to review this place because i don't want it to get busier than it already is. after hearing from a couple people that this place has the best burgers in LA, i wanted to check this place out because really, it's a burger. how great can it be? it was heaven. by far the best burger i've had in my life. i can't even describe how great it is because there are no words to explain the perfect flavor and texture. and i'm normally full of words. also, if you're like me and like beer, but don't... read more
Good Beers, Stuck up chef – I hate Blue Cheese and the waiter said they could not make my burger without Blue Cheese. That's so arrogant and screwed up. I mean...come on...it's not like I'm asking for the world, just No Blue Cheese.
Great beer and ambience! – I'm not a huge beer drinker, but the bartender helped me choose one I've never even heard of (and can't remember the name) and it was delicious! Great after work crowd.
