Elon Musk ’s electric vehicle company Tesla recently opened a retro-futuristic diner in Los Angeles, California. The new outlet, located on Santa Monica Boulevard, combines old-school American diner aesthetics with Tesla’s high-tech features. Earlier this month, Musk shared an X (formerly Twitter) post where he wrote: “I just had dinner at the retro-futuristic @Tesla diner and Supercharger. Team did great work making it one of the coolest spots in LA!”. In a latest, the tech billionaire hinted at global expansion of the outlet.
Elon Musk shared a video of the diner on X. Reposting the video, he said “If our retro-futuristic diner turns out well, which I think it will, @Tesla will establish these in major cities around the world, as well as at Supercharger sites on long distance routes. An island of good food, good vibes & entertainment, all while Supercharging!”
Tesla Diner idea dates back to 2018
Elon Musk first announced plans for such a diner back in 2018. At the time, he posted: “Gonna put an old school drive-in, roller skates and rock restaurant at one of the new Tesla Supercharger locations in LA.” Construction for the LA diner reportedly began in late 2023.
The Tesla Diner reportedly offers classic comfort food such as burgers, hot dogs, wings, and hand-spun milkshakes—served in boxes designed to look like the Cybertruck, the company’s all-electric pickup. The location also includes a full drive-in movie experience with 45-foot outdoor screens. Visitors can listen to the movie audio through their Tesla car’s built-in sound system.
Customers driving Tesla vehicles can order food directly through their in-car screens while their cars are being charged. The new diner features 80 Superchargers, allowing EV users to charge their cars while enjoying food and entertainment.
Tesla robot Optimus spotted serving popcorn at Diner
Inside the diner, Tesla's humanoid robot Optimus was seen serving popcorn, as shared in a video by content creator Jacklyn Dallas. Dallas, who reports regularly on technology updates, called the place a “paradise for tech lovers.”
The two-storey building includes a rooftop seating area and aims to provide a blend of food, entertainment, and convenience in a single stop.
