The upper-level Skypad offers panoramic views of Hollywood and movie screenings you can enjoy either from your table or directly from your Tesla's cabin using the Tesla Diner app. Guests can place food orders through their car's touchscreen or dine inside for the full retro-futuristic vibe.
The menu draws inspiration from American diner staples like juicy burgers, crispy fries and all are priced affordably between $4 and $15.
Tesla has also launched an exclusive themed merchandise at the location, including:
Elon Musk first teased the concept back in 2018, describing it as 'an old-school drive-in with roller skates, rock music, and a Supercharger.' Years later, his 'Grease meets The Jetsons' vision has taken shape, and the result is one of the coolest new hangouts in LA.
Musk recently visited the site himself, posting on X, '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!'
Musk isn't stopping at just one. Sharing a video of the diner, he hinted at global expansion: '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!'
Construction for the Hollywood diner began in September 2023, and it's already become a buzzing attraction for Tesla owners, tourists, and food lovers alike.

India may stun everyone by rejecting Su-57 fighter jet to buy F-35 from US due to..., move may prove game changer for IAF because...
The F-35 Fighter jet-Image for representational purpose American F‑35 fighter aircraft news: As India phases out its old MiG‑21 fighter jet fleet amid growing threats from China and Pakistan, the Indian Air Force is exploring options to quickly acquire fifth-generation fighter jets. Among the top options that India has been offered are the American F‑35 and the Russian Su‑57, both seen as game-changers. It was earlier reported that India may go for the purchase of Russian Su‑57 fighter jets but as of the recent update, reports suggest that India may purchase the American F‑35 fighter aircraft. Why India may choose American F‑35 fighter aircraft? Taking about the while the F‑35 offers cutting-edge stealth and combat technology, it comes with limitations such as lack of weapons integration flexibility and possible restrictions on technology sharing. On the other hand, the Su‑57 is more compatible with India's existing defence systems and may offer opportunities for co-production under the 'Make in India' initiative. Choosing between the two could significantly influence India's defence posture and global alignments. However, reports now say that India may surprise everyone and buy US's F-35 fighter aircraft because it uses world's most advanced stealth technology, has world class network-centric warfare capabilities and this aircraft has proven itself in war. Another advantage of the F-35 aircraft is that it is extremely effective in carrying out surgical strikes against Pakistan on terrorist hideout. India's 5th-generation stealth fighter jet gets key clearance Meanwhile, the government of India, in a major push towards Atmanirbharta (self-reliance), approved the Execution Model for the Advanced Medium Combat Aircraft (AMCA) programme recently. As per a report by IANS news agency, the AMCA project clearance marks a critical step towards realising India's goal of joining an elite club of nations in designing and producing its own fleet of next-generation combat aircraft. The project will be helmed by the Aeronautical Development Agency (ADA) of the Defence Research and Development Organisation (DRDO), said the Defence Ministry in a press release. Designed with low radar cross-section and supercruise capability, the AMCA is seen as the successor to the frontline Sukhoi Su-30MKI fighter jets. Some reports suggest that its mass production is likely to commence by 2035. (With inputs from agencies)
