If you're vegan don't bother unless you feel like filling up on Brussels sprouts and fries. There are several other items that are close to being vegan but since they don't allow ANY modifications, even deletions, vegans are screwed. Pretentious, anyone?

Loud and overcrowded place, would not recommend to go if you are hungry, tried Fat shrimp and burger both were mid, nothing special. Also ordered French fries which never arrived although the tables around us who came later received theirs.
Disappointment.

Nice presentation, but for me too spicy, heat overwhelms the food. Good place for beer drinkers. If you drink wine your mouth will be chard. Nice service and staff. I Was told they do not accept cash? What happened to “good for all debts public and private “? discrimination for people without a credit card. Is it that legal?

Food is tasty, the fish sandwich is amazing. Large selection of beers and they provide tasters. Only two small tv's at either end of the bar, so a good place for chatting and hanging out

Poor service. The bartender ignored me for at least 10 minutes even though it was dead. Probably won't be back.

Cool atmosphere. Came after hearing hype about the burgers. Overall, a huge letdown. My take:

The Office Burger: honestly, not very good. The caramelized onions were the best part, but it just wasn’t that good. Plus, tiny portion size

Fried chicken sandwich: cheaperc larger, and better tasting than the burger. Still not great though.

Reason for visiting: happy hour after work

Date/time of visit: Wednesday, ~6:00 PM

Parking: there's free parking in the structure and in the lot shared by other businesses. If it's full, there's street parking in the back on the street directly behind the parking lot(s); meter parking is good for 2 hrs at a time. ~$2.00 for 2 hours; meter parking ends at 8:00PM. Free after.

Party size: 8 people

Environment/ambience: loud but fun. TVs around for a few games; we sat at the bar. I got there a few minutes late but seems not too hard to find seating in the bar area; we did have to split up but near each other.

Service: was great; both the bartenders were great. Friendly and offered suggestions. Really chill peoples.

Food: had the Kolsch lager and a few fries. Everything was good.

Cost: I bought 1 round; ~7 beers and sweet potato fries. $105 with tip.

Would I go back (yes/no): 90/10

The fish sandwich was a decent size, the fries as well but everything is on the pricey side. The sandwich was $19 and the fries were another $9, already making it a $30+ meal without tax/tip or a beer. At least I split the fries but it's crazy they aren't included with the sandwiches or $4-5.

Solid place for happy hour. Apparently this location has a more extensive food menu than the rest.

It’s a fine place over all. Great draft beer selection and solid spirits and cocktail menu.

Food is pretty good too. Burger is tasty but not traditional. It comes with a caramelized onion sauce on a sandwich roll and you can’t ask for ketchup. See below.

My biggest gripe about the place though is that you can feel it’s a chain or almost corporate almost to the point of it being close to a hotel bar/restaurant. For example, you can’t order anything off the menu drinks and food wise. It’s like everything is just very regimented and assembly line produced here. They don’t even carry ketchup. You get your burger as is. And the bartenders are pretty busy taking orders that they don’t have time to be super friendly. Not necessarily a bad thing. Just an observation.

The beer and food are both good but the no modification policy is reason enough not to come back. The restaurant was empty and the staff refused to serve either a cheeseburger or fish sandwich without cheese. They unwillingness to accommodate for allergies was very ridiculous.

Went on a LA burger tour and stopped by here. Was very excited. The staff was very cool. Got the office burger with salt and vinegar tots. I think the meat to bun ratio is off. It tasted like arugula, onions, sauce and bread. I couldn't tell where the meat began and ended. The salt and vinegar tots were AMAZING! But give this place a try and judge for yourself.
