Liz from Los Angeles

About me Originally from a small town in Wisconsin, as long as I can remember I told my parents I was moving to California where it is warm!

Father's Office Los Angeles

"I'll be at the office late!"

""Father's Office" in Los Angeles is an upscale gastropub with 'bar food' prepared by acclaimed chef San Yoon. The vegatarian in me is in for a treat here!"

Craving one of 36 rotating craft beers?  Come to Father’s Office and you will not be lying when you say “Honey, I’m still at the office!”

Father’s Office is an upscale gastropub with “bar food” prepared by acclaimed chef, Sang Yoon.  Los Angeles restaurants always represent vegetarians and vegans with at least one dish, and the vegetarian in me delights trying food from the whole gamut of restaurant cuisines. The roasted beet salad is the perfect refreshing and healthy dish for a hot summer afternoon, including three types of beets, pepitas, radishes, and a whipped blue cheese. There are multiple parking lots tucked in and around the restaurant, and you can dine indoors or outdoors on the heated and shaded patio. You can take home a souvenir California skateboard from their store of “office supplies”.

Father’s Office is located in the charming historic Helms district in Culver City. Stop by for lunch after you visit Sony Pictures studios down the street!
