After several years of construction, the highly anticipated Tesla Diner and Supercharger station in downtown Hollywood is officially opening to the public today, Monday, July 21st.
Tesla hosted a special pre-opening event this Saturday to celebrate first responders, which provided us with our first full look into the now-operational venue. The diner is a blend of a massive, state-of-the-art Supercharger station, a retro drive-in movie theater, and a restaurant packed with Tesla’s signature — tech, culture, and a ton of fun moments.
Supercharger & Drive-In Experience
At its core, the Hollywood location is a massive Supercharger site, featuring 80 v4 Supercharger stalls. But the experience here goes beyond just charging. The site also features a fully functional drive-in movie theater, complete with two enormous 45-foot LED movie screens.

The integration here is as seamless as we hoped. You’ll be able to order food directly from inside your Tesla - and payment is handled automatically through your Tesla account. A new sub-app called Tesla Diner appears in Tesla Theater, which connects your vehicle’s display and sound system to whatever is playing on the main screens. This works for both the front and rear displays - which means your passengers can also enjoy the entertainment.

The demo vehicles they had on display had an added app under the Tesla Theatre app. The app probably appears once the car connects to the WiFi at the #tesladiner. @Tesla @cybertruck pic.twitter.com/Toa0dxI3Yl

The Menu: Burgers to Hand-Spun Shakes
The food offerings are a nod to classic American diner fare, and include the below:
Burgers
Fries
Chicken Wings
Hot Dogs
Hand-spun milkshakes
Sandwiches
In classic Tesla fashion, they couldn’t help but touch on the small details. The burgers and sandwiches are served in a unique Cybertruck-styled burger box.
The Experience: Robots, Roller Skates, and Rooftop Views
Tesla has pulled out all the stops to create something truly unique and memorable at its diner. Adding to the retro vibe, the human servers were gliding around the diner on roller blades. That’s something you definitely don’t see every day anymore.
On the rooftop deck, you can also get a good view of the iconic Hollywood sign and the theater screens, if you’re up for more of an airy experience.

Inside, for the soft opening, several Optimus units were on-site. One was even actively serving popcorn to guests and answering questions - giving us a little glimpse into Optimus at work. Although Optimus was remotely controlled through, presumably by a person in a suit and sensors, it could serve as training data to enable it to perform this task independently in the future.
This was the coolest! 😎

Swag and Easter Eggs
The diner is definitely going to be a must-visit destination for Tesla fans, and Tesla is aware of this. They’ve leaned into their own history here with a bunch of diner-exclusive merchandise and swag, along with a ton of pieces of Tesla history on display.

The merch also included a unique diner-themed Optimus action figure. If you’ve got the first one, this new one is definitely another to add to the collection - but you’ll need to visit in person to grab one.
Make sure you pick yours up when you go! pic.twitter.com/qXPeIZy7u7

Some of the real treasures, aside from all the swag, are the historical Tesla items. On display is the original broken Cybertruck glass from the infamous 2019 reveal event. Alongside it is also a bullet-tested HFS steel panel from a Cybertruck prototype, which even includes handwritten notes from Wes Morrill, Cybertruck’s lead engineer.
To round out the showcase for the event, Tesla also had a Cybercab and a modified Model Y Police Cruiser on display at the event.
The Tesla Diner has shaped itself up to be more than just a restaurant. It’ll definitely be a destination visit for many Tesla fans. You can check out a full walk-through of the experience here:
