On a sunny Monday in Hollywood, Elon Musk surprised fans and tech enthusiasts alike by opening the doors to the much-anticipated Tesla Diner. This innovative establishment is not just another eatery—it’s a retro-futuristic drive-in that fuses classic Americana with next-generation technology, and it’s already turning heads on Santa Monica Boulevard.
Open 24/7: Guests can stop by any time of day or night, making it a unique destination for both locals and visitors.
80 Supercharger Stations: Claiming the title as the largest urban charging hub in the world, the diner invites Tesla owners (and all NACS-compatible EV drivers) to power up their vehicles during their visit.
Two 66-Foot Megascreens: Movie nights are reimagined with outdoor screenings, allowing diners to enjoy cinema classics from the comfort of their cars or on the Skypad deck.
Optimus Robot Server: Eye-catching automation is on full display, as a state-of-the-art robot delivers popcorn directly to guests—a preview of robotics integrating into daily routines.
Chef Eric Greenspan designed the menu to pay homage to beloved diner classics, elevating them for a modern audience:
Tesla Burger with signature Electric Sauce
Fried Chicken and Waffles
Grilled Cheese Sandwiches
All-Day Breakfast: Avocado toast, biscuits and gravy, homemade cinnamon rolls
Specialty items like Wagyu Beef Chili and the much-talked-about epic bacon.
Meals arrive in Cybertruck-themed boxes, reinforcing the brand’s iconic presence on every table.
Waiting in line for an hour is not uncommon, but most agree that the ambiance is worth it. The exterior draws inspiration from classic drive-ins with a UFO-like design and plenty of neon. Parking ensures an uninterrupted view of the giant screens, whether you’re inside your EV or relaxing on the Skypad.
Highlights Include:
On-screen entertainment synced to the in-car Tesla Diner app.
Both indoor and outdoor seating for up to 250 guests.
Ample space and amenities—even dedicated pet relief areas for furry friends.
Elon Musk has expressed his vision of bringing retro-futuristic diners to major cities around the globe, particularly near Supercharger stations on key travel routes. A positive reception in Hollywood could mean similar concepts coming soon to other urban centers—and possibly even to SpaceX’s Starbase in Texas.
The grand opening of the Tesla Diner marks a bold experiment in blending past nostalgia, cutting-edge automation, and the growing EV culture in Los Angeles. For tech fans, foodies, and anyone curious about the future of dining-meets-technology, this is an experience that deserves a spot on the bucket list.
