Best Gastropub
Top 100 Restaurant, Los Angeles
"Father's Office is the nationally acclaimed...gastropub and home of the much touted 'office burger.' Our focus is craft beer and its pairing with food. We feature a seasonally rotating selection of 36 craft beers on tap along with esoteric small producer wines. ... Our food menu consists of seasonal dishes inspired by the rich bar culture of Europe and locally farmed ingredients."

"Creator of the most-imitated Los Angeles dish since Nancy Silverton reinvented an obscure Piedmontese dessert called panna cotta, Sang Yoon is the baron of the new-style cheeseburger: dry-aged beef cooked exceptionally rare, dressed with onions cooked down to the sweetness of maple syrup, Gruyere and Maytag blue cheeses, smoky bacon, arugula and tomato compote, all on a French roll."

" ... Father's Office boasts a killer beer list, sophisticated pub grub from a chef/owner who worked in fine dining, and now, at this new locale, high-class spirits instead of dessert, and that California necessity, an outdoor terrace."
– S. Irene Virbila, Los Angeles Times, Nov 12, 2008
