The Office Bar & Grill

Fish Tacos, House or Shrimp Sampler are great. Perfect bar food. Got to try the ribs, meat tender fall off the bone. Forget Myron Mixon's - "I want a little tug". Some of us don't have the teeth for that action.

Last month I had a meeting with my Dodgers season ticket partners and we had the best service ever. Gloria was our server and she was spectacular. She was on top of our drinks, orders, and very attentive. Everyone wad so accommodating and the prices were reasonable as well. We went there on a Sunday, not much of a crowd which probably helped us tremendously. Thank you Gloria!

Great drinks, good food, fun music, a must visit in Lincoln heights! I got the beef loaded nachos and they were so good! Definitely recommend them. Bacon wrapped hot dog comes with the side of fries. Staff is really friendly. I also got the micheladas, really yummy as well. I appreciate how they give you the remaining beer in the bottle, other bars don’t do that (see pictures). They serve the palomas in jarritos, really cute. Will keep coming back.

REMY IS A TERRIBLE BARTENDER. I just witnessed bartender Remy disrespect a new customer. The new customer was sitting at the bar minding his own business, when one of his regular senior customer started yelling at the new customer. The victim reported this behavior to Remy, and this bartender did nothing. This whole incident occurred directly in front of bartender Remy. He allowed his regular customer to verbally threaten the new customer. The new customer had just arrived. Within minutes, this new customer closed his bill and left the bar. Remy continued to serve alcohol to the belligerent aggressive senior citizen. Remy is bad for business !

Just love the atmosphere there,for me good place to just chill. My girlfriend and I had our first date there 3 years ago. What happened to the good service ? My girlfriend had to go out of her way to get our drinks. The older woman was always so helpful. This younger lady wasn't.

This place has always been my favorite neighborhood bar. A great place to watch the Dodgers games, have a Michelle's after work, or take a night cap after an evening affair. Over the past year it has gotten even better with the opening of the kitchen which serves up some of the best American with Mexican flare bar food in the region. So far I've had several items and enjoyed them all - the Avocado Corn Ensalada, Pibil Sliders, Quesadilla de Borracho Camarón. The fries are "mooshy". Just the way I like them. While the ambiance for dining is not the best, the drinks and food make up for it.

It was my first visit to this bar, and as soon as we sat down, three staff members came over to assist us. The bar area is impeccably clean and well-maintained. An added convenience is the charging stations located right under the bar tables. Additionally, they have a lovely patio area outside.

Came here after a Dodgers Game to meet a friend. It's a cool location. Bar is nice and big, they serve food but I didn't order any. Was filled with a lot of Dodgers fan. Great atmosphere

Ah yes... the infamous keyboard warrior review. Gotta love when someone turns a night of harmless banter into a full-blown dramatic episode. I was actually there that evening. Remy (bartender) handled everything with professionalism and respect. The vibe at The Office Bar & Grill is always lighthearted -- regulars casually joke, decompress and everyone enjoys themselves. That's kind of the charm of the place. Unfortunately, it seems the person who wrote the previous review misread the room, got a little too sensitive, and decided to storm off and write a 1-star novella. Hey, not everyone can handle a little friendly bar banter. But to discredit someone's name is disgusting. That's someone's potential job on the line. Some folks prefer to take things out of context and then heroically save the Yelp world from imaginary crises. For the rest of us who actually enjoy great service, great bartenders (shoutout to Remy ), and good old-fashioned laughs -- The Office Bar & Grill remains a fun place to be. Cheers to thicker skin and better nights out! P.S, the carne asada fries are bomb!

They have overcharged me so many times but hey it's a bar, it's not a damn church where you go pray. Ya feel me! So pay as you go and mind you they charge if you pay with a credit card. Also, the owners daughter Michelle, had the worst attitude. I've heard other regulars, complain about the owner overcharging and doing this more than once. But hey, that's her niche. There's other places around that have beer for cheaper Also, not the first review to leave about them overcharging lol... They tried to threaten me which is funny!

Stopped by for Happy Hour Golden Road IPA & Street Tacos - chicken & beef. Since post-covid, better lighting & a more friendly atmosphere. Remy & Damaris both took good care of me. Plenty of parking behind & inexpensive for 2hrs max.

Miguel is a great bartender and everything else the music rocks great place love it he was attentive, and the martinis were excellent

I wanted to provide an honest and updated review. Been coming here for years and I have always enjoyed coming here. My fave drinks have become the Old Fashions, Mimosas, and the micheladas, omg!! The pineapple mojitos!! It's a feel good bar that has amazing bartenders and vibes. It's always funny when I see a disgruntled person try to give a negative review on here. Especially one that was known for hustling people out of drinks all while having a pirates patch on. Come down one eyed Willy! We are all here to have a good time and a good time I am having here. Woooo! Come on down!

Amazing service and food at the Office. Parking is a little challenging but worth coming in for. It's a hidden gem on Broadway. It's dark but comfortable inside. Drinks are served cold. I love that they keep beer glasses in the cooler. Tried the wings and burger, both 10/10. The wings were more like fried chicken so that was a nice surprise. The beef patty was perfectly seasoned and so juicy! Definitely gonna make this my regular spot when I'm in East LA. Bartender is super sweet and helpful.

I've come to this bar a handful of times since about 2016. It's a reliable spot to come hang out with friends and just grab a drink. Theres a dance floor and the bar setup is legit. I get a dive bar vibe mixed with a party bar vibe when I have come here. I have never seen this bar packed, perhaps because I have come at odd hours and during the weekday. I've never had had a bad time here though. Bartenders have always been ready to take a drink order. Consider making The Office part of your night out next time you are in the area!

Food service and ambience are kool. I always have a good time here local crowd, and often special events. Gloria, the owner is an angel always checking up on you making sure everything is fine gracious charismatic, and a good vibe.

Little spot to have accessible drink and happy hour treats. The bartender was very friendly.

I lived in Lincoln Heights for 8 years and LOVED to bring all my clients and colleagues here. It's so fun to say "let's meet at the office" which is code for grabbing a cocktail. No one will turn that invite down! There is paid parking in the back or on Broadway in the front, but it is about a dollar for 2 hours. The owner, Gloria, is a real gem! She always remembers every customer and makes you feel special. Their fish tacos are the best I've ever had. While the pandemic was starting to fade, The Office was open and had patio dining/drinking which we took advantage of. The bar was remodeled just before I moved and it looked amazing. They were then working on their marquee sign and I expect that looks great, too. Whenever I'm back in L.A., this is the first bar I'll return to!

Great place to sit and drink and eat! Been here 4+ times and the food is GREAT! My biggest compliment is to Gloria the bartender! She's seriously such a gem and I look forward to seeing her when I come in. 20/10 cannot wait to come back to this place!

Took my lady to see Dodger game. Drinks were good and the happy hour tacos were fire. Bartender was cool as hell

The owner was rude drinks were watered down and two meals were bad! One was cold and the other was overcooked! Wouldn't recommend or come here again! Ambiance was amongst the homeless dwellings! Possibly would give a second chance if management wasn't so rude!

I have to share that this place is a perfect bar to have a celebration or just chill with some great food and drinks. The service from Trent(bartender) was amazingly attentive and friendly. Special thanks to the owner Gloria who allowed us to host such memorable night! Your kindness is appreciated and thank you for the welcoming hospitality. My husband and I hosted my birthday party here and with the help of a friends the decorations came out amazing. They have great space for DJ and dancing, and most importantly the drinks and foods were delicious. This bar in conveniently located off the 5fwy on Broadway and had ample parking in the back. The flow and decor inside is such a vibe and it's really clean! Restrooms have are big and the ladies has two stalls. The backyard patio has its own spacious vibe which was convenient for my smoking guests. Overall, you have to check this bar out if your local or not! They have a smart jukebox and heard they have the DJ on certain night. Don't miss out and say Hi to T (great bartender) for me!

A credit card pros fee ... this the new norm ?! If so this is ridiculous!! The food is on the pricy side $$.

Ordered Mexican pizza it was ok tasted more like a lasagna . Wings were good food was very hot and fresh.

Great neighborhood bar! Damn, I wish I lived closer. The music was great and bar staff was cool. I got my beer and was on my merry way. Will be back to try the food, everything the folks near us ordered looked A-MAZING.

These five stars are dedicated to Gloria. What a genuinely sweet woman. It was a pleasure to have her as my bartender. I hope ownership takes good care of her they have a gem on their team.

I was here on a date and the drinks and service were good. I also enjoyed the music and vibe. I will be coming back for sure. Easy parking access. I recommend this place.

First let me say The Office I love you and love that you are woman owned I have been going on and off for years. 2nd please know I am cheap and hardly ever buy my own drinks yesterday I was waiting for a friend in the hood so I decided to drink and wait I got a Pacifico draft it was super cold and crisp so thank you but $9.50 for a glass of beer? I mean I love money too and the place was not empty so you know what you are doing but after the $2 tip on that 9 $ beer I cut my fat ass off thank you to the chef that gave me some amazing soup I appreciate that also to the man that talked to me for more then 10 mins without offering to buy me a drink I won't be calling you but bless your heart the music was epic! Cheers y'all

I use to like this bar precovid but I see they had to adjust their menu, take off happy hour and implement extra charges for card users. Im good! I wont come back even if im in the area. The waitresses were cool but the lack of variety in the menu and the additional charge for a card was unnecessary and off putting.

Love this place the owner Gloria is the best owner ever. Great service, good people and the food is great. You have to order the cucarachas which is off the menu and trust me you will not be disappointed. Trent is my white brother from another mother, Angel aka peso pluma is also a dope ass bartender, Michelle makes some of the best drinks ever and Jackie always put a smile on your face. I love this place.

Bomb.com , mango margarita Great vibes and the owner is so sweet and nice You can control the jukebox lol and they have a patio outdoor if you need some air!

The fam at the office is the best!!! Trent, Miguel, Angel, Michelle, Jacky and Gloria are all beautiful people and the ambiance here is just so cozy but at the same time when the DJ is here or the karaoke nights you can really get your wild self out and enjoy your night!!!

I love the vibe here, very welcoming. Good music, great food, drinks always on point! Bartenders are friendly and respectful! They have tvs to watch all your favorite sports team. What more can you ask for..

Great ambiance,the bar food is surprisingly tasty, the staff is kind, and the live music is Jumpin!

This is a great bar! Also, I'm very picky regarding food and the aguachiles were perfect. They were spicy and filling! Full of flavor! The food is not your typical bar food, but you need to ask for David in the kitchen. He has that "Sazon." Also, the bartender, Trenton, is great! Always smiling and super attentive to everyone.

Didn't have any food, just a night cap, but I felt compelled to report that the vibe was very chill and comfy in here. Good place to catch up with a bud over a cold one or two. The barkeep was as pleasant as can be, and lord knows that after the longest workdays, some bubbles and heat served up with a smile is just what the doctor ordered.

Good place to watch Dodger games. Food and ambiance were great. Waiter and baristas were friendly.

karaoke is fun, pretty divey and drinks are just the same as anywhere else in LA. Would come again only for karaoke

So a couple of coworkers went to this bar during the week day, after a long day at work. It was early in the day and the bar was pretty much empty. The location and ambiance is great. We ordered drinks and appetizers (buffalo wings, fries, and onion rings) which also hit the spot! My only complaint was the service. We kept having to ask for water, napkins and plates for our food. This was the reason for the "four" stars. Maybe it was an anomaly, but I will be back to give it one more chance because it was a chill place to kickback with friends and enjoy a drink.

Came by on a Sunday just by chance with my husband. Looked up spot for a Michelada and found this spot. Went in and it was a bit empty. Trenton was the bartender, he was great. I thought the kitchen was closed as I saw no one with food. A while later Gloria came by and asked if we wanted a food menu. My husband and I ordered the loaded nachos and aguachiles. Didn't take long for the appetizers to come out and the chef himself brought it to us, which was surprising. The food was delicious. Service was excellent. Gloria and Trenton were very attentive, even with more people coming in after a while, they came by often to make sure we were doing ok. Highly recommended, quiet and chill hole in the wall dive bar.

Gloria made it a great experience! Excellent service. Atenta y servicial! Bar food is good. Didn't give it 5 star because of a negative employee- Michelle. Girl has attitude. Not friendly. I won't come back if she's here. Tóxica.

Love this place has a great ambiance and delicious food. Chill place to watch sports or just to grab a drink

I used to love the food here, and Michelada drinks made by one of the guy staff. Recently going here has been very disappointing the owner I think this lady with piggy tails has been serving as waiters and sucks at it she likes to ignore customers, we asked for waters after our meal and drinks and never came to the table we were literally observing the owner talk to people and ask other people if they needed something and was serving them meanwhile 35min without any water!! Once we were ready to pay and got our check we were charger first 4 water bottles that we never got the entire time we were there. Unfortunately will not be coming here anymore or recommend this place. My advice is customer satisfaction should be a priority to the owner not just pretending and ignoring paying customers.

Excellent food, drinks, and especially service. I hate to be "that person" but I had like five requests as soon as I sat down. Trenton, our bartender, was so sweet and speedy and accommodating. Made for great conversation too. I don't know who owns this place but please give Trenton a raise. Also, if you're new to The Office, DO NOT MISS OUT ON THE POTATO TACOS, THEY WILL CHANGE YOUR LIFE, THEY ARE SO GOOD.

Stopped by for a quick drink and bite on a Saturday. Awesome spot for chill drinks and good food -nachos, wings and fries. You can tell the chef takes pride in his craft. Bartender Trent was really great and helpful and made excellent drinks. Definitely a spot to hit during hot summer day for a chill vibe and drink in the dark office bar and grill.

Unassuming local bar. The definition of a Dive Bar. Super friendly staff. They have a great happy hour that includes beer, well drinks, and your typical basic bar food. We did order some off the menu food items which were bomb- aguachiles and ceviche. It was surprisingly really good. We all ordered beers and micheldas and had a really nice time. They have a "jukebox" which is cool so we all took turns putting some of our favorite songs on. As the night went on, they were even setting up for karaoke night. FUN. This is definitely a place you go to to just grab a drink and just hang. Nothing trendy going on here, just a good local bar.

First and foremost Gloria was amazing. The food and drinks were amazing 10/10. The environment is very laid back and just very clean! I highly recommend this grill, catch Gloria before 2pm!

Jackie made theee best Michelada !!!! She has her own personal try with ingredients idk what her secret is but I will be back after work!!

do not judge a book by its cover! this is a super cool spot nicely remodeled inside. the outside looks a little intimidating but don't let that fool you! the staff are really cool and nice and the food was bomb and comforting. definitely coming back. plenty of parking outback, only .25¢ for 30 min.

I effin love this place. It's so dark, so cheap, perfect dive. Highly suggest you get your ass down here and slam sone damn brews

My boyfriend and I came here for drinks on a date nite. We love the ambiance and we met Marcopolo he made our night even more better. He's funny charming and a good time!! We'll be coming back again for a good time!

I am going to have to do a 3.5 review. It was my first time coming after my sister had been begging me to come since she LOVES this place. And as she said it, it was amazing! We ordered garlic fries & chili cheese fries! And omg!!! PROBABLY THE BEST IVE HAD! not exaggerating! So we have drinks coming in and everything is AMAZING BUTTTTTTT, finally I paid for music on the "touch tunes" so I ask this new bartender(about 7-8pm) who had just started his shift "hey when will my music play? I've paid for about 8-10songs" and he just RUDLEY said "well we've been playing for music so idk what's happened and now it's time for the DJ" and I asked him so what happens to the music I requested? He said "WHAT DO U WANT ME TO SAY? YOU'LL GET YOUR MONEY BACK? Or better yet, come back tomorrow and we'll play your songs" f**** JERK, then went back and forth arguing with me being RUDE AFFF'!!!!!!! BESIDES THAT GUY WITH JOE DIRT haircut, MICHELLE & white dude were AMAZINGGGGGG!!!!

Cute little dive bar with some bomb micheladas! Who knew this little hole in the wall in the middle of Lincoln Heights would have so much to offer. The ambience il was very welcoming and chill for a Sunday night. Our bartender Kim was very helpful and offered us her signature Micheladas. I was unable to try the regular Michelada that she made for my friend, but, as my friend put it, "it was bomb!". Kim was very kind and offered to make me a version of her Michelada, vegan style! It was very delicious. As many people have mentioned, there's a DJ here on weekends. It's definitely a local favorite. Many of the people we met on our visit are long time customers of the bar. The bar appeals to both young and seasoned souls!

I actually stopped by here a handful of times pre-COVID days when it used to be a lot more going on so far as live music and dancing is concerned. Good spot to stop by alone (or with a group) after a long work week and seeing as it was local to my area, this was one of my go-to spots that competed against Barbara's Brewery and the Lincoln Kitchen & Tap before COVID obliterated the both of them out of existence. Now, post-COVID shutdowns with modified lifting of restrictions, it's my new go-to spot that's local to the area. The Airliner and that new EOLA lounge bar where it was formerly the 'Le Blanc' bar just isn't my cup of tea, despite them being relatively a closer walk to than the Office Bar & Grill. The pricing of beer is similar to Barbara's and Lincoln Kitchen & Tap before they both closed down, namely between $7-12 for draft beers and $8-16 for well drinks and cocktails. They have bottle beers and, I believe, a limited selection of wine. They also have bar food: fried chicken tenders, french fries with dip, onion rings with dip, and I believe I saw some burger options as well. Didn't really check the prices on those so you'll have to rely on the other Yelpers for that. They have several TV's tuned into sports at the front of bar along with bar stools. They also have a few tables and chairs. The dance floor is gone now. They installed a fancy digital jukebox, which I don't recall them having pre-COVID (or maybe I just never noticed it in the first place). Ambiance. It had a lounge feel to it. But we went on a Wednesday night so it was nice and quiet for our small group. There were 3 other small groups that were already there plus a couple of guys at the front of bar watching the game that night. For the most part, it was quiet but it got loud from time to time, especially as more people arrived later that night. Parking. Street parking only. It's not too hard to find on any of local side streets but you may have to a walk a couple of blocks. Or, you can pay to park at the metered parking lot behind the Bank of America. Service. Male bartender was friendly enough and regularly checked in on our table to see if we wanted more drinks or wanted to order food. They still take credit cards. Pre-COVID, they added $0.75 surcharge for every credit card transactions under $10. Not sure if that's still true today as I used cash this time around ever since I found out that they added this surcharge to credit/debit transactions from the pre-COVID days but it's worth bringing up before using plastic. Enough said. All in all, I recommend it stopping by if you're a local and you used to either frequent Barbara's or the Lincoln Kitchen & Tap, though I hear that Barbara's supposedly opened up again under new ownership but only at a limited outdoor capacity. Or, if you happen to work nearby, it's also a good spot for a small to mid-sized group.

Awesome parking (Rear); freeway proximity; cleanliness, food, colors; full bar and kitchen;regulars; clean bathrooms; property; TVs; sexy lights; and most importantly good people servicing! Kimbella and Angel make it happen! Met the owner and Miguel holds it down on the karaoke. If you are in this area of LA, I would check this out; no drama all love!!!

Pics can be deceiving... This place is TINY, and easy to miss! We assumed this was a trendy bar, but it's just a local bar. We came here for a co-worker's "Going Away" last hurrah kind of get together, and were lucky enough to score some tables. Some of the pics had booths in the photo, but they have since gotten rid of those. The tables sufficed. It's a small enough bar that the people at the bar were within earshot and annoyingly hitting on us. This is definitely a neighborhood bar, and newcomers will be zoned in on. Online the food and atmosphere looked really cool, but we were really disappointment when we got there. Also, my coworker reported back that the men's restroom is just a room with a toilet and a urinal (no partition and no lock) Good thing I didn't stay long enough to see how the women's restrooms would fare. I did like my Mango Margarita with chamoy and tajin though! Not too much tequila, which was probably a good thing because I was driving. Mozzarella sticks were good, but served with ranch instead of marinara sauce... fries were soggy, but still good! There is parking both in front (meters) and back as well. I was lucky enough to snag a metered parking in the front, and it was free after 6pm!
