Elon Musk's Tesla Diner Hit With Inflatable Nazi Protest

Based on facts, either observed and verified firsthand by the reporter, or reported and verified from knowledgeable sources. Newsweek AI is in beta. Translations may contain inaccuracies—please refer to the original content. Elon Musk's Tesla-themed diner in Hollywood became the scene of an anti-Musk protest on Sunday. Protestors gathered outside the futuristic eatery with balloons resembling Musk that were animated to do Nazi salutes, in reference to a widely-criticized gesture that the tech billionaire made on President Donald Trump's Inauguration Day. Newsweek has contacted Musk for comment via Tesla's press office. The Context The Tesla CEO's new diner opened in Hollywood on Monday, though it has been unable to escape the wave of protests that have followed Musk's signature tech company since his work within the Trump administration. Protestors across the world have targeted Tesla in a reaction to Musk's actions in the Department of Government Efficiency, which the billionaire left in June, and many of those protests have used Nazi imagery after his gesture and support of a right-wing conservative party in last year's German elections. What To Know In images of the protest seen on Musk's own social media platform, X, formerly Twitter, a group of protesters can be seen standing outside the new diner with two balloons that resemble Musk. The inflatables have been made to constantly mimic the gesture Musk made in January, while the protesters hold signs that say, "Boycott Tesla." Well The Paid for and Sponsored by Soros Protesters are at it again at the Tesla diner 🤦‍♀️ — Susie Pollick 🦌 𝕏. (@nadjiasusie) July 27, 2025 Musk responded to the targeting of his new location on X, saying: "This is obviously a paid attack with no popular support, as it is just a few people with public passersby ignoring them. Only question is who's paying them?" The Tesla Diner on July 11, 2025, in Hollywood, California. The Tesla Diner on July 11, 2025, in Hollywood, California. Getty Images Protests against Tesla peaked in April and May this year, when Musk was at the height of his power in the White House. Since departing, actions against the company's vehicles have died down. Tesla reported its third quarter in a row of declining profits on Thursday, following a disappointing second quarter of 2025 that saw a 16 percent drop in profits. What People Are Saying Elon Musk wrote about the diner's launch on his social media platform X on Monday: "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 and entertainment, all while Supercharging!" What Happens Next Musk has indicated that Tesla could expand the Diner & Drive-In format to additional urban centers and select Supercharger locations across the U.S. and globally, if the Hollywood pilot generates enough public interest and income.

Elon Musk's Tesla Diner Now Open: Showing Futuristic ‘The Jetsons', Robots Serving Popcorn

Elon Musk's Tesla Diner is a two-storey building. There are charging stations, a rooftop drive-in, and even a humanoid robot called "Optimus" serving popcorn. After years of talk and a soft launch over the weekend, Elon Musk's Tesla Diner, a full drive-in movie theatre, officially opened late Monday. The diner is located on Santa Monica Boulevard, at the site of a former Shakey's Pizza restaurant. The new setup is both retro and futuristic. It combines a classic American diner with Tesla-themed features. There are charging stations, a rooftop drive-in, and even a humanoid robot called 'Optimus" serving popcorn. As per a NBC News report, the fans started queuing at sunrise. Inside the two-storey building, customers were greeted by servers on roller skates. They offered free samples of ice cream. The rooftop theatre played old shows like The Jetsons, adding to the nostalgic feel. Los Angeles chef Eric Greenspan designed the menu. It includes grilled cheese, fried chicken and waffles, and tuna melts. There are also Tesla-themed items like the Tesla Burger with Electric Sauce. Prices range from $4 for sides to $15 for main dishes. Many fans waited in the heat with no clear update on when the diner would open. Despite the confusion, the mood remained cheerful. Some people shared snacks and chatted about Tesla cars. A few brought lawn chairs and made a day of it. Here's What Foodies And Fans Said Some fans came in their Cybertrucks and Tesla vehicles. They hoped to use the new Supercharger stations, but they were not working during the wait. One visitor, Tracy Kuss from San Diego, said she arrived at 8 am but was worried about her battery running low. 'I need to be the first to charge," she joked. Another couple, YouTuber, Everyday Chris and his wife Janice, arrived at 5:30 am. They were excited to see the robot and the space-themed bathrooms that had gone viral online. Many Tesla influencers attended the event. A Cybertruck with Dogecoin graphics drew extra attention.
