Dustin Hoffman joked he'd pay for anyone eating at West Hollywood's pricey Kumo Restaurant -- and now he's sticking to to his word, sorta.
The Rain Man agreed to foot the bill for the first 50 people who drop his name or order the "Dustin Hoffman Roll." Sorry, the restaurant is only in L.A., so anyone outside of Cali is SOL.
Watch the piece from TMZ TV and check local listings.

What a waste. Why not do something positive with your time and money instead of promoting a stupid menu item named after an old movie star? So what is a "Dustin Hoffman," a really short rib that's been left out too long?

Oh, darn.. I live in the OC and can't get down to LA. Darn...Don't be dis respectful to Dustin Hoffman. Didn't your parents teach you ANYTHING??? Dustin is an excellent actor with many, many, many memorable parts.. My fave? 'TOOTSIE'!!!! You go, Dustin!!! He is one of the very few that has been married to the same woman for a very long time.. One of the VERY FEW!!!!

That's really cute. What a nice guy. He's promoting the business and at the same time making 50 people happy along the way because he's makin them feel special, and fortunate to stumble on the information at the right time. Hat's off to you my friend. I wonder if we all performed one random act of kindness a day, if the world would be a more enjoyable place to exist.

Aw, c'mon, that's a pretty cool move on his part. When was the last time you heard of a Celebrity footin' the bill for 50 "random" people? Go Dustin!
