Father's Office

For newbies: this is a seat yourself scenario, walk up and order at the bar . Don't order your burger well done, and it's probably big enough for two. One of the best beer selections on the West Side.

This heavenly creation made with dry-aged beef , arugula , Gruyère cheese and a bacon-onion compote is like eating French onion soup . Word to the wise: Dont ask for ketchup here; they’ll laugh you away. Read more

The gourmet burger comes with blue cheese , arugula and bacon compote and the fries with aioli . We might object, except that our mouths are too full of potato-y goodness. Read more

Try House made pimento pub cheese with spiced crispy pork rinds , The office burger , with caramelized onion , bacon , gruyere , maytag blue cheese and arugula & Russian imperial stout ice cream sandwich

You come here for two things, great beer and The Office Burger , which is a piece of heaven between buns featuring caramelized onions , bacon , Gruyere , Maytag blue and arugula . Top 5 in my burger list!

Best burger in LA? I won't contest that. The Office burger falls into the specialty burger category. The caramelized onions are a strong flavor. Fries are seasoned and served with Aioli .

For late night eats, go to Father’s Office for its no-substitutions Office Burger , a dry-aged beef patty topped w/caramelized onions , arugula , gruyere & blue cheese  (order until midnight on Fri+Sat). Read more

Order the Office Burger , inspired less by classic hamburgers and more by the flavors of French onion soup . The result remains one of the definitive high-end burgers . Read more

Do what the internet says. Take seat, order at bar , go back to seat, food will be delivered to table, enjoy. Great burger (don't add or remove anything), tasty marrow . Garlic aioli for fries was good.

The meat has the perfect amount of age, making it a great burger . They also have an awesome beer list and a very knowledgeable staff . Read more

The food is good, the cocktails are delicious, beer selection is really awesome. Insufferably hipster , though. And *any* deviation or request off menu (including cocktails ) will be summarily rejected.

Cheese plate goes excellent with their Panama Rum , and the current seasonal special of soft shell crabs is amazing! Go during the day, even on weekends, for a good seat!

A more spacious version of the original. Arrive before 7 p.m. on Saturday night to avoid crowds. And of course, the beers and burgers are delicious.

The roasted lamb taste very different from most. The meat is tender and taste similar to steak . This is lamb I most definitely recommend.

The best thing food wise is the fathers office burger . You get a mix of sweet and savory from the meat and bacon molasses sauce.

Best burgers ! Very tasty fries and delicious bar . I recommend the office burger and side of fries .

Arguably the best burger in Los Angeles served alongside a lengthy list of craft brews at two perennially packed outposts. Read more

Get the Office burger . And if you're as annoyed by the seating situation as I am, stop by at 8:45 or 9 on a weekday. Lively enough but you don't have to hover for a booth .

Not the most vegetarian-friendly, but there's generally a salad or two + fries + a special appetizer that works. But you come here for the large beer list . Much larger than the Santa Monica location.

The signature burger at Father’s Office gets a lot of hype. But there is a reason why: It’s supremely flavorful, juicy, and delicious. Go eat it now at 3229 Helms Ave.

If continuing to drink helps you to digest (or maybe you just want to tell yourself that), the bar stays open until 2 a.m. Read more

Great beers and daily specials small plates are great and fries are excellent but bring your larger wallet because you'll want it all!

A must goto for me when I'm in LA. The burger is amazing and the extensive beer list is always impressive.

IMHO the best burger in town !! Also great selection of beers ! Be aware, they don't change anything in the burger . Cheers!

With so many amazing rare beers on tap , I swear there's one for anything on the menu, even Beet salad ! Ha!

Liberty Duck Confit Salad - Mustard Greens , Frisee , Figs , Hazelnuts , Tangelo Vinaigrette . $19

There's only one burger on the menu. It's a great one, but it's $12.50 (so-so fries are an extra $2.50). Don't ask for ketchup . Order at the bar . Seating is first come, first serve.

A damn good burger . One and only one: the Office Burger . And don’t try to change a thing because menu alterations will be politely declined. Read more

I NEVER make complaints but this one takes the cake . Just asked for the burger w/o cheese cuz of my allergies & instead of kindly helping they referred to their food as Picassos artwork. Epic fail.

This nationally acclaimed L.A. gastropub is focused on craft beer , with a rotating selection of 36 craft beers on tap and small-producer wines and micro-distilled spirits .

Despite the long waits and the crowds, the beer and staff make it worth your while. Oh, and that burger...is still one of the best uses of beef in town . Read more

First-timers take note: requesting ketchup is verboten, as it distracts from the beef’s flavor (and they don’t keep it around anyway). Read more

So beer is way amazing! But burger is overrated. Try Blue Palms in hollywood! or even the Kaliwild at 38 Degrees in Alhambra! Or the bucket in. Eagle rock!!! But hey parking is free so that is nice

Get the burger like everyone else says, but everything else on the menu is pretty damn good too. pick a favorite drink of choice and start socializing with friends or strangers if you like.

Great for hanging out with friends after work, but can get crowded . Expect highish end food at decent prices for the tastiness you get. Fries come with a tasty aioli . We always get some to eat with

Great food, but they should make a burger w/ soy or no cheese for those lactose intolerant folks who enjoy this place also.

Great selection of Belgian beer & tapas . Oh, and there sweet potato fries were perfectly crispy yet soft, with a side of awesome garlic aioli . Not bad...

Get the burger ! They don't allow you to add, remove or substitute anything (a little pretentious , especially if you're allergic to something), but it's fantastic.

Lots of great beer options on tap . Great burgers . Outdoor seating reminds me of a movie set/the studios.

Father's Office Burger . They also serve a really tasty treat from the Helms bakery called a Strawberry Cheesecake Ice cream pop. It's unique and not too sweet.

Deviled Eggs - Fried Capers , Hot Paprika , Dill , Hot Sauce . $9

Try the Sweet Potato Frites - These are amazing. They're piping hot and crispy and the garlic blue cheese aoili they come with is incredible.

Awesome beer selection . Should have a sweet veggie burger , but they don't. Get the beet salad , mushrooms or Brussel sprouts . And be prepared to fight for space.

Probably my favorite FO. More spacious but still crowded even on a weeknight. Love the outdoor seating though!

The Office Burger medium rare might be the best burger I've ever had. Combine it with a Trumer Pilsner and you're going to have an experience.

Love this place but be prepared to wait. You have to have stealth attack-like skills to snag a table when it's busy--like an animal circling its prey.

The signature burger at Father’s Office gets a lot of hype. But there is a reason why: It’s supremely flavorful, juicy, and delicious.

Bartenders are extremely friendly and don't mind making recommendations. Oh, and the burger is fantastic also.

Sleeker and bigger than its Santa Monica counterpart, but the same solid beer list and famous burger .

Great beer selection . Nice vibe and outdoor sitting area make for a perfect little bar .
