Quaint warm old school bar with one of the best burgers I can remember having in a minute. Great fries and a good tap list too

Tried to bring my 78 year old aunt here for lunch after she wanted to see the closing Helms facility, but they don't do modifications. So much for seniors and the infirm. They have a demo they want and if you're not it there's the door.
They'll be joining Helms soon I'm guessing.

Father’s Office in Santa Monica feels like a masterclass from someone who’s seen the world, cut the fluff, and come home to serve only what matters.
You walk in and the room has that quiet confidence of a place built by people who believe in standards, not suggestions. The Office Burger lands like a sermon dry aged beef, blue cheese, sweet onions, arugula all working together with the kind of bold harmony that makes you wonder why anyone ever asked for ketchup in the first place.
The staff moves with the precision of people who care, not because it’s cute but because details are the difference between forgettable and unforgettable. There’s humor in the attitude too a kind of “we’re protecting you from your own bad taste” wink that somehow makes you trust them more. It’s smart, it’s flavorful, it’s unapologetically itself, and walking out you feel like you just tasted something honest in a world that keeps trying to sell you shortcuts.

It is messed up that they can’t even let a baby in a car seat- just to sit next to her parents while they enjoy a burger and a beer. No-one needs to go to this over-hyped place.

Really cool experience. Very different take on a burger and brew; but rewarding.

Tiny space, big flavor. Fresh oysters, buttery lobster rolls, and cool wines. Romantic and buzzy all at once

The food is good. It’s a little loud. But the real problem is spending $38 for a hamburger & fries and a glass of water w/tip. Restaurants in LA have it bad but that’s ridiculous. My friend added a beer and was above $50. No wonder people eat at home more.

Artichokes were delicious! The staff was really nice too!

I finally tried this burger spot, and while it wasn’t the best burger on earth or even in all of LA, it was still damn good. Pricey? A bit. Worth it? Yeah, I’d say so. The patty was tender and juicy, and the mix of cheeses with those tangy balsamic onions and peppery arugula hit just right. And here’s the kicker: this was my first burger ever without ketchup… and I didn’t even miss it. That says a lot.

Allergies are not respected here. Not allowing people to remove an item from their meal in 2025 is insane

This is a quirky neighborhood spot with excellent food and a good beer list. Beer aficionados will find some unusual offerings here, and the bar tender had an almost encyclopedic knowledge of what they had on offer. I feel I know a lot about beer, but I learned a few new things here. The burger was excellent, if slightly underdone to my medium specification. I went for lunch, and the place was full of ‘Norms’… ha. Still, I felt welcome and so will you… unless you ask for ketchup. Never ask for ketchup here! (Same as the original burger place, Louis’ Lunch in New Haven). I wish I would have had room for the Bratwurst as well. It looked good.

Very unprofessional and unethical Didn’t serve us food because I wanted modification of not having cheese in my burger because of my allergy! Simply said we DON’T do modifications and if you don’t want you can leave!!
