Father's Office - Los Angeles

Cool place to meet friends. The mushroom and polenta dish was amazing- I'd get it again!

Why on earth would you crank the music when there was a wonderful murmur of voices? We had to yell to be heard! The lighting was a tad low for those struggling with age/eyesight. Everything else was lovely. You can tell love was put into the food with how the recipes are crafted. Dishes were bussed quietly, discreetly even. The bartenders are all good looking and diligent, helped to find a drink.

Great food, not the usual bar or burgers. I gave 3 stars for service as it's basically self serve. You have to order at the bar and then they bring it out.

Good place for beers. Went for a friends birthday. TLDR: Birthday cakes cost $45 to eat there. They denied me bringing a birthday cake in (said it was against policy for outside food), then manager said it was policy to charge $45 to eat a birthday cake there. Such an arbitrary number. But good beers.

Been a few years since the first time I was at Father's Office. It was just exceptional this time as it was the first time. Shared with a friend an Office Burger, Spanish mushrooms, deviled eggs and peach ice teas. The food is excellent. If you are into fungi, the Spanish mushrooms are a must. Service is good and friendly. And the atmosphere is nice.
