"When you walk into Mr. T in Hollywood, you may see a server setting food on fire to the beat of a Jay-Z song. That would be the comte and mimolette cheese flambé, which shows up in a few signature dishes at this restaurant on Sycamore that melds various international street foods with traditional French cooking. The flaming dairy isn’t the only attraction here, but it does tell you what you need to know. Mr. T sprinkles a little Parisian attitude into everything it does. Watch the action in the open kitchen from the seats at the counter, drop in with a date and snack on minty-sweet tuna crudo, or invite friends to crowd around a patio table for wagyu burgers, truffle mac and cheese, and chicken "mille-feuille." - brant cox, sylvio martins, arden shore
