Quite a few of my friends have been telling me the quality of Father’s Office (Santa Monica’s High-end pub)’s famous burger had gone down lately. We had a friend’s farewell party at the recently opened Culver City branch. We ordered at the bar and the food were served at our table promptly. The beer was […]
