Hubby and I grabbed brunch today at Mr. T's and had the best time. This place has a great vibe and the service was exceptional. It feels like a little slice of Paris tucked away in weho. I grabbed their burger with a side of fries and my husband ordered their breakfast burrito. The flavors were fantastic and their fries are some of the best I've ever had. I also grabbed their S'mores cookie for dessert. I am looking forward to coming back for dinner in the near future. read more

This was a cute spot in the neighborhood to grab lunch. The cookies in the pastries case looked good and their lunch menu was limited with food and drink options. We ordered our food and drinks at the counter and chose to sit outside since it was a nice day. I order the Mr. T's Burger medium rare with a side of fries. The bun was soft and the meat was cooked perfectly. The torched cheese was fun to watch. The caramelized onions gave the burger a nice sweetness and the side of fresh tangy greens was nice to eat in between bites to cut the slight greasiness of the burger. The side of fries that came with ketchup was big enough to share. Staff was friendly and answered any questions we had, but other than ordering our food at the counter and having our food dropped off, we didn't receive any additional service besides clearing the table. There was a water station inside for you to grab your own water. From looking at other reviews it looks like they have a different menu options and vibes for dinner so would love to come back to see how that is. read more

Mr. T - Mr T's Burger - French Near Me - Los Angeles, California

Solid French-Californian fusion restaurant on Melrose. Came with some friends on a Friday night and our experience here was decent. For food, I got the Mr. T Burger and it was pretty good. I got the burger at medium rare which the server recommended and it was juicy and meaty. The toppings were great too and the presentation with the cheese flambé was fun. The cheese and aioli were savory and the caramelized onions provided a nice, sweet contrast. The bun was also buttery and soft. An overall great burger. I also got it with fries and they were nice and crispy. I liked the aioli dipping sauce it came with which had a nice heat to it. The burger alone was $22 and with the side of fries, it was $28. Despite the burger and fries being great, the price was a bit too high for what I received. I enjoyed the ambiance which makes it a great spot for a date. The mood lighting and decor were nice. The music was on the more clubby side, so I would reccomend a music mix more appropriate for an intimate dining experience. The service was mixed. I liked how attentive the waiters were in clearing out dirty dishes and filling our water cups without asking. They were also generally friendly. However, when it came time to splitting the bill with my friends it was a bit complicated. We had to manually do the calculations ourselves which isn't ideal for a customer experience. One of my friends even calculated wrong and paid more money than she owed, but the server wouldn't re-do the transaction which was not great. For parking, it is street parking only I believe. Despite the deltas, I still had an overall decent experience here. read more

Stopped by around 11 AM on a quick coffee mission and was pleasantly surprised. Their latte was excellent, and the cookie selection, next level, impossible to ignore.

Ambiance -- romantic, low light vibes. Creative, artsy decor. Amazing service. The experience was enjoyable. Waiters provided recommendations on food and drinks. Great food!

We came here to celebrate my mom's birthday, and it couldn't have been more perfect! The service was absolutely amazing -- our server was so attentive, always making sure our glasses were full and that we had everything we needed. Thanks to the professional and friendly staff, we had such a wonderful and memorable time. Every brunch dish we ordered was incredibly delicious, and all the staff were genuinely kind and welcoming. The atmosphere, both inside and outside, was beautiful, clean, and relaxing -- such a lovely place to enjoy a meal. They also sell freshly baked bread, and I saw people stopping by just to buy it. Next time, I'll definitely be back to get some bread too! Highly recommend this place for any special occasion or just a nice brunch outing! read more

I believe this is a newer spot in town since it's tucked away in a part of town that looks to have a lot of new buildings. When you walk in there are a bunch of sweets laid for you to see which all look delicious. They have great decor and design. We got a few things and the food was decent. The menu does seem to be all over the place as there were some Italian dishes with some Asians inspired ones. The milkbread was okay and the pizza was decent. Service was quick but there wasn't a lot of people but that was to be expected for a new spot and hopefully they can work out their kinks. read more

We went for lunch on a Saturday. The place was surprisingly empty, it was just us and another table. We ordered drinks, they came out pretty fast. I asked the waiter about gluten free recommendations and he made some suggestions (Spanish omelette) We were four people and ordered four dishes: a burger, a burrito, and 2 Spanish omelettes. The burger came out after 15 minutes or so, then nothing else. My friend starts eating his food... then finished his food and we are still waiting. The waiter finally comes out telling us the Spanish omelettes always take longer but the food will be out shortly. Another 10 minutes goes by and they brought us two croissants on the house to apologize (they contain gluten, I can't eat them). There was a 40 minute delay between the first burger and the other 3 dishes being served to us. We pretty much waited a full hour for our food. 1. All dishes should have been served together 2. They should have warned us about the long wait for Spanish omelettes. We might have ordered something else or added extra appetizers - we were starving 3. After all this wait the Spanish omelette lacked flavor Extremely disappointed read more

*** Los Angeles Times 101 Best Restaurants (2024): #87 *** Feeling celebratory for a number of reasons, we ended up at Mr. T this past Wednesday for dinner around 8pm. Upon arrival, we were pleasantly surprised to find out that all wine here is half off on Wednesdays, so we started off sampling a couple of their red wines (Cabernet and Pinot Noir). To eat, we split the Milk Bread, Chip N' Dip, L'oursin, Poireaux & Burrata, Mr T Pates A La Truffe, and Boeuf Bourguignon. My favorite dishes were the Milk Bread and Boeuf Bourguignon (braised short ribs). Service was impeccable. The ambiance was nice and elevated. If you haven't been, I'd recommend giving this place a try. read more

This Sunday morning I dropped by Mr. T to try their croissant. I got there around 9:45 AM. It was not busy. Their croissants are good. Right texture. Light on the buttery taste. Crunchy on the outside. But not flaky. It felt like I was eating a manufactured croissant. They tried to be too perfect. DJ's rating: 3.90/5.00 Would I come back? No. read more

Excellent restaurant for small plates and light bites. I felt that everything was executed very well all around with the steak being a particular standout, as well as the apple pie. Steak was a perfect medium with fantastic marbling and melt-in-the-mouth texture. Apple pie crust was so flakey and crispy and paired excellently with some vanilla ice cream over top. Came here for a team event and the place could easily accommodate us 20+ folks with a private room/area in the back. Also noticed many people sitting in a more intimate area, so seems like quite a versatile place for all kinds of party sizes. Could see this being a great date night spot as well! Would not mind coming back when I am in LA again. read more

Mr. T is a chic bistro oasis in Los Angeles! A lovely menu, beautiful shaded patio, and artistic presentation. A perfect little spot to enjoy great coffee and delicious light fare in a calm, peaceful setting. It's also perfect if you want to sit outside, but don't want to be in the sun. It feels like a secret little retreat. I love it! Service was friendly and felt genuine. Although you order at the counter, it didn't really feel like a number-on-a-stick kinda spot. It's a quietly elevated zen respite, and I love that about it! Looking forward to more visits! read more

We had my girlfriend's birthday here in the back room last month. Vincent, the Event Manager, was so helpful during the planning process, guiding us with the prix fixe menu selection and answering our endless questions. We reserved the private room and patio for our party. It was POURING rain when we arrived- the staff had moved both tables inside and it worked out perfectly. The private room has a record player and wall full of albums, nice touch. Guillaume and Annie made us feel at home. I warned Guillaume that although we are civilized people with excellent taste, we'd be chugging wine like a bizarro-world bacchanal French Oktoberfest. He helped me make some outstanding selections for a great price. Opening round of cocktails were all fantastic and well balanced, the food was outstanding (shout out to the blowtorched cheeseburger!), 100% would recommend! We'll be back for date night. read more

This very special spot is a wonderful find with a Happy Hour from 5 to 7 and a breakfast Burrito with chicken sausage to die for.

An added bonus is actual french speakers who work here who really give that amazing Paris vibe with an LA smile. Merci Beaucoup! read more

Pretty space w a big heated patio, Mr T is French but not afraid to take chances w some Asia-inspired dishes (Galbi-jjim, lumpia). My friend and I split the Burrata salad (delicious) and Lobster Linguine (absolutely amazing) and rib-eye steak w cauliflower purée and leek sauce (ok). Maybe bc the pasta was so out of this world, the steak paled in comparison? The chocolate mouse for dessert was also just okay though huge in portion size. One person cannot eat it all. And a quick shoutout to Allen our server - his charming and professional demeanor added to the experience in a positive way. Definitely plan on coming back to try the lumpia and also the brunch. read more

We had such a great time at Mr. T in Hollywood! There were four of us, and we ordered a bunch of appetizers and mains to share--every single dish was so good. The flavors are bold, fresh, and creative, with really fun takes on some classics. You can tell everything is super high quality, and it honestly left us wanting more. The cod was a standout--perfectly cooked and packed with flavor. Service was also awesome--friendly, attentive, and made the whole night easy and enjoyable. Huge patio that feels cozy and private. Beautiful interior. We're already talking about coming back soon, and definitely excited to try their Sunday brunch next time! read more

This was, without exaggeration, one of the most disappointing and overpriced delivery meals I've had. I ordered the Salmon Tartine and the advertised "Canned" Iced Latte because there was a Buy One Get One deal and the reviews looked decent. What I received did not match the price, the description, or the expectations. The Salmon Tartine was unacceptable for a $22 dish. The salmon was extremely tough. The menu clearly states that trout roe is included, it was completely missing. The bread was tiny, and the overall portion size was shockingly small. The side salad was barely a garnish, and the dressing tasted like straight lemon juice. Since the tartine already had a strong sour cream component, the combined flavor was overwhelmingly acidic and unpleasant. There was no balance, just sourness. The "Canned" Iced Latte did not come in a can. It arrived in a plastic cup that appeared to be around 14-15oz, despite being advertised as 17oz. The coffee tasted fine, but that does not justify misleading presentation and portion discrepancies. For nearly $40 total, this meal was nowhere close to being worth the price. The portion size is completely out of proportion to the cost, and the online description does not accurately reflect what is delivered. That is extremely frustrating as a paying customer. My coworkers were genuinely shocked when they saw how small the dish was. This felt overpriced and misleading. Unfortunately, this was my first and last order here. If you're considering ordering, be aware that what you receive may not match what is advertised read more

Not Mr T from the 80's action show A-Team.. Mohawk, beard, gold chains and torn jean jacket vest he used to say "I pity the fool". I'm guessing this Mr. T is French and the chef. We came here for brunch to try the Mr T Burger. Yup, a burger for breakfast at 9 am. The patron next to us in line looked at me funny when she asked what we were ordering. Mr T Burger is delicious.. The burger patty is a brisket blend, with a mac T sauce, sprouts, comte and mimolette (cheese) foam. Actually, I could do without the sprouts. Prepared medium, the beef quality was very tasty and seasoned well. The fries were freshly fried but wish they were a little more well done. Served with ketchup or mayonnaise Mr T is also known for their pastries which are displayed like jewelry in glass display case. Pastries are 10 classic items to choose from. Perfect looking and well done. Nothing innovative with the exception of the Crooklyn. Crooklyn is a muffin shaped looking croissant puck. In the middle is chocolate chip cookie baked inside. This pastry is very good and I'd come back to order it again. The croissant part is soft inside with a crusty exterior. Inside is full of chocolate chips and cookie dough baked through and topped with walnuts. The perimeter is crusted with what appears and taste to be sesame seeds. For brunch, ordering is at the counter past the pastry displays. Service here is good and attentive. Aside from the initial reference to the 80s TV show, the interior reminds me of a modern take of 80's interiors. Pretty nice an intimate setting both indoors and outdoors. I'll have to come back here for dinner to try. read more

Absolutely Amazing Food and Service. Appetizers were delicious and the burger was extremely good.

Wow - knock me over with a feather! Mr. T French restaurant here in Hollywood, California could hold its own anywhere in Paris, France; yes, it was that good. In fact, they have a "sister" restaurant in Paris, so there ya go, Everything going on here was some "real deal"elevated continental food. Their menu is short but unbelievably sweet. Starting off with my Hendricks gin martini, which was one of the better martini's I've ever had and ending this feast with a rock solid Mr. Tiramisu dessert. But what was in between these two, was the star of the show: * My Salade Caesar - with Belgian endives, white anchovies, parmesan cracker was out of this world * The Escalope Panee was this incredible breaded chicken with brown butter, meyer lemons, anchovies, frisée salad - just so good * My Hanger steak with french fries, peppercorn sauce - once again, just terrific The staff working here were so expertly trained, they made sure your experience here was going to be amazing. A restaurant this good should never go unnoticed; and I'm absolutely positive it won't! read more

I cannot say enough good things about the food, the ambiance, and especially the hospitality at Mr. T. On our first visit, Alan made us feel like we were longtime regulars, gave thoughtful recommendations, and was attentive to our every need. We felt like VIPs from the moment we sat down and then were completely blown away by the food. The dishes are all incredibly fresh and light from the crudo to the asparagus. And the cheeseburger might be the best restaurant burger in the city, swaddled in lush Comté foam with silky caramelized onions and a spray of light, crunchy sprouts to balance the richness on a fluffy, butter-toasted bun, crispy around the edges, for a texture play that will make your tastebuds dance. From the welcoming patio to the stellar service, this spot exceeds 5 stars and Alan gives a master class in how to treat customers. Francisco is awesome, too. All the front of house staff go above and beyond. A wow-worthy addition to the neighborhood I plan to frequent often. read more

Mr. T - A Perfect Croissant - French Near Me - Los Angeles, California

This French-inspired bistro in the Sycamore industrial corridor was a "hidden" find for our dining crew. The compact menu features 15-20 shareable and generous plates of fusion comfort foods. Our favorites included the Chip 'n Dip starter -- a cheesy amalgam scooped up with crispy taro chips; the deconstructed Caesar salad -- a stack of endive and anchovies between 2 Parmesan crackers; and Mr T's Pates a la Truffe, a mac and cheese style rigatoni that's flambéed tableside. But truly, every dish was a winner, including a few special desserts recommended by the owner. There's also a greenery-enveloped patio for warm-weather dining. Highly recommended. read more

We've been there for breakfast and had the breakfast burrito which was excellent. Today we were excited to try the steak frites for dinner. The menu description mentioned peppercorn sauce so I assumed it was the Au poivre sauce. It wasn't. It was one of the most bland and unflavorful sauces I've ever had at a French restaurant. The meat itself didn't taste good either. I'm not sure what cut it was (it was sliced for us too which I don't mind). It was so bad I ate two slices and gave up which I rarely do. But it was that bad. To the waiters credit he did take the steak off the bill which I appreciated but I had to order from another place for dinner. I know this restaurant has transitioned its menu over time. It still needs a lot more work for us to try again. read more

My girlfriend and I have been coming to this restaurant regularly and it never disappoints. From the moment we walk in, we're greeted like family. The owner is always warm and welcoming, and the entire crew makes us feel right at home every single time. Shoutout to Edgar, the bartender. His drinks are next level. Seriously, some of the best cocktails we've had! We recently recommended this place to our friend for his birthday dinner and the experience was perfect. The owner went above and beyond to accommodate us in the VIP room and the vibe was amazing. The music set the mood just right, and we loved that we had the option to step outside for a change of scenery if we wanted to. The temperature inside the restaurant was also just right not too hot, not too cold which really helped keep everyone comfortable and relaxed all night. The food? Incredible. You can really taste the love and care in every dish. All of our friends who came to the party couldn't stop raving about it and they've already said they're planning to come back. This place is more than just a restaurant to us. It's our go-to for good food, great people, and the kind of atmosphere that keeps us coming back. Highly recommend! read more

First, the staff here went over and beyond. We originally had a reservation for a group of 7 and was able to audible our seating for a group of 10. They moved tables and patrons and really went the extra mile. The restaurant vibe is trendy, they play great music, nice patio seating, outdoor seating and inside seating. The bar is massive from front to back. The food was really good and our server mentioned the chef used to work with republique, so that explains why. The highlight for me through was the tomatoes and Burrata, lumpia and the truffle Mac and cheese! We ordered quite a few items and they were all wonderful. The drinks - someone give the bartender a raise. They did the damn thing. The drinks were made to perfection (heavy pour) and signature cocktails were also amazing. Can't wait to come back here!

Super disappointed with my experience here for brunch with a friend. Came at opening at 10:30am and although we got seated right away (we did have a reservation) the service was very much lacking. Took a second for them to come around to order food after we got our drinks (the lathe was delicious) and then no one checked up on us after it was delivered. They also forgot my friends extra sauce she asked for and my extra egg. Oh yes. The eggs. I know we're in a crisis with eggs right now but the menu for the grain bowl said "poached eggs" plural. Nope. It ONE egg. so I ordered 2 more... and they forgot one and had to bring it after. No sorry or after thought. We had to flag down someone for ordering a croissant to go and for our check. The second waiter that took over for our first... he never even came back for us, but kept chatting it up with the table next to us (clearly we weren't somebody's enough for them to qualify for attention and service)... anyway, our waiter kept leaving mid sentence as we were trying to explain what we wanted. Mostly a to go box and extra sauce to take home. The whole thing felt very strange and like we were not important at all. Which is odd, considering that there was maybe seven other tables that were taken. My friend also asked for a printed receipt that she never got. We did complain to someone that identified herself as the manager, and she asked if we wanted a free drink or beverage. I'm gluten-free so I couldn't take any pastries, but she could've offered this to us and taken off the pastry that my friend had ordered, as she was literally ringing us up when we were complaining. Overall, the food was good. The service was horrendous. I will never come back. Yes, I'm salty read more

One-Star Review: A Total Disappointment--Overpriced, Uncomfortable, and Unclean I initially gave this place two stars, but after reflecting on my two visits, it does not even deserve that. The ambiance is completely unremarkable, and the seating is ridiculously cramped. I was constantly bumped--by guests squeezing into their chairs and by servers brushing against my elbow while I tried to eat. Instead of proper lighting, they use cheap battery-operated table lamps that go from dim to blinding with the slightest touch. The result? A visually jarring, headache-inducing experience, with guests and servers unintentionally triggering these lamps throughout the meal. Clearly, the only comfortable seats are reserved for larger groups or the private dining room, so unless you are part of a big party, expect to be jammed into a tight, uncomfortable space. Now let's talk about something even more disgusting--the dirty chandeliers. The decorative bulbs were coated in dust and grime, which made me wonder: if they neglect something so visibly filthy, what else in this restaurant is unclean? It is unsettling to think about what the kitchen must look like when even the dining room is being ignored. The tables are also wobbly, which is completely unacceptable for a so-called high-end restaurant. I actually watched servers shoving folded paper, napkins, or other objects under the table legs to try to stabilize them as guests were being seated. This level of unprofessionalism and lack of basic upkeep is appalling--especially considering the price point of this place. The food? Not worth the price--at all. The steak, priced at $58 before tax and fees, actually costs $80 after adding in gratuity, tax, and the Los Angeles health insurance surcharge (which adds 38%). And for that price? It was small, deceptively sliced on the bias to look bigger, and included inedible portions. That is a dishonest way to plate food, and at this price point, it is completely unacceptable. One of the sides, a sweet potato, was actually burnt--how does a kitchen let that leave the pass? Their espresso martini was so acidic it had to be sent back, proving they cannot even execute a basic cocktail properly. On another visit, I ordered a burger priced at $28, which with the same added charges came out to $38.64--for a burger. And despite giving clear, simple instructions, they still managed to mess it up. I asked for just the burger and cheese--nothing else, yet they could not get that right. Worse, the meat contained gristle and cartilage, making parts of it inedible. At this price, you are paying for premium quality beef, not a cheap grind full of unchewable bits. The failure here is both in the kitchen and in basic attention to customer requests. To make matters worse, after that unsatisfying meal, I grabbed something from their baked goods section on the way out--a piece of banana bread--hoping for something better. It was so dry I took one bite and threw away the rest. This place has racked up plenty of negative reviews for the same issues, and it is clear that nothing is being fixed. Between the dirty chandeliers, the wobbly tables, the cramped and uncomfortable seating, the poorly executed food, and the dismissive attitude toward complaints, there is zero reason to come here when so many better options exist. Do yourself a favor and go elsewhere. read more
