HED: Tesla Diner Is Almost Unlocked And Loaded, Ready To Go
The Tesla Diner is still locked but is loaded with Cybertrucks and Model Ys – and by all appearances is almost ready to open.
I stopped by the location at 7001 Santa Monica Blvd several times over the weekend of July 11. Most recently on Sunday July 13. It's teaming with activity inside. The fences were back up after they were briefly taken down. Workers appear to be putting the final touches on the diner such as window cleaning.

Over the weekend of July 11, there were roughly a dozen people sitting at the tables both inside and outside the diner working on laptops. As though they were doing a test run. I initially thought they might be a select group of patrons given early access but was told that wasn't the case. Over the weekend, the two massive movie screens were looping (repeatedly) classic American movies such as American Graffiti and 2001: A Space Odyssey.
The Diner has 75 V4 Supercharger stalls. Many of them were occupied with Cybertrucks and Model Ys. In addition to the main areas that face two massive screens, there appears to be additional charging in a separate space in the back. In North America, V4 Superchargers can charge up to 250 kW for Model S, Model 3, Model X and Model Y vehicles, according to Tesla's Supercharger page. Cybertruck vehicles have the ability to charge up to 325 kW only at V4 Superchargers.
The Diner
The Diner – a two-story, saucer-style, stainless steel structure – is expected to be open 24 hours and feature rooftop seating with a bar in addition to the first-floor area. Eric Greenspan, an LA-based chef, will run the diner. The diner is a prototype for a new wave of high-end Tesla charging stations.
