I think that most people would enjoy a visit to Restaurant 917. If you like cars, I would definitely recommend dining here. Even if you don't care about cars, I think you will still enjoy it there. I noticed a large, private room too. Be sure to make a reservation if you want to dine here. The restaurant is nicely furnished and there's a nice view of the cars driving around the track outside. FOOD The 917 Burger is surprisingly good. The bun is so soft and perfect. The patty is nice and thick but also tender, juicy and flavorful. I also loved their choice of ingredients (especially the cheese) to tie everything together. The fries were great too. SERVICE Attentive and professional. PARKING They have a large lot. It's free and easy. read more

I just love this place. I booked this place for 3 weeks in advance. Reservations for a Friday is tough to get so we settled for Wednesday at noon...for 3 people. We got there a little early so we can check out all the Porsches in the lobby...very cool setup. We had the Sea Bass, the Short Rib and the Burger. All were very good as expected, BUT I think the only thing that was filling was the burger...so two of us ordered dessert. During our meal we got to watch people testing Porsches on the track. The service we got from our waiter was outstanding. I definitely recommend this place for any occasions...but I might be a little bias. I always love to bringing people here as much as possible. It's an unique experience. read more

They serve brunch once a month on a Sunday. They serve the regular lunch menu during this. Highly recommend you make a reservation- we got this three months in advance! We opted to wait a bit longer to get a table with a view. I wouldn't say I would come back but it was definitely worth a visit. We started off with the iconic pretzel bread and porsche butter. The grilled mushrooms had such GOOD flavor! My boyfriend had the scallops and they were surprisingly big! I got the 917 burger and it was SO juicy. I upgraded the fries to duck fat fries and it was totally worth the price. read more

Service: 10/10 for Hailey! We had such a wonderful experience thanks to this amazing person who welcomed us and took our order! Hailey was incredibly kind, patient, and genuinely helpful. You could tell she really cared about making sure we had everything we needed and felt comfortable. Her attitude made the whole experience so enjoyable. It's rare to come across someone so sweet and attentive -- she truly went above and beyond. Thank you for making our visit so special Food: The bread alone deserves its own shoutout -- it tasted like a soft, warm pretzel (so good!) and comes with the cutest butter molded in the shape of a Porsche. I love that little touch The Bluefin Tuna with smoked ginger, jalapeños, onion, and truffle ponzu was absolutely delicious -- fresh, flavorful, and perfectly balanced. The Burrata Salad with grilled peaches, cherries, sesame, black garlic toast, and citrus basil vinaigrette was the perfect mix of creamy, sweet, and tangy. Can't wait to come back and try more dishes! Ambiance: The restaurant isn't huge, but it comes with great seating options -- you can sit up at the bar, or grab a cozy table by the window overlooking the track.You can also step out onto the side balcony for fresh air and pics. We were seated by the window, which was perfect -- such a fun view of the cars/races while we ate. The whole vibe is relaxed and definitely a great spot to enjoy good food, car-watch, and take in the scene. Tip: you can order most of the drinks that are downstairs in the Speedster café up here at 917 Can't wait to come back and try the rest of the menu read more

Pretty fancy restaurant located on the 2nd floor of the Porsche Experience Center Los Angeles. Reservations are extremely hard to get - you'll have to look 1-2+ months out but for any shot at preferred times you'll need to look exactly 3 months out. It's a good experience but for the given hype, it's overrated and a one and done experience for me. We got the 917 burger with duck fries and black truffle shavings ($25 supplement) to share. For dessert, we got the corn éclair. Before the burger, they gave us pretzel bread and butter complimentary. The butter is really good and aesthetically shaped like a Porsche. They were nice to give us an extra set of butter to take pictures. The burger was aesthetic with the 917 logo stamped. I think it comes with fries since we only got charged $8 supplement to sub duck fries as opposed to paying a full $16 for the side. The burger is so good with the patty being cooked to medium rare, along with the other ingredients combined to a really good flavor profile. The duck fat fries were distinctly delicious and fragrant, and the truffle is a good experience for a relatively affordable price compared to truffle supplements at other high end restaurants, though note that the flavor is not as potent as "truffle fries" since real truffles are fainter in flavor. The corn éclair is quite interesting - sweet and savory. It is beautifully presented and it was satiating. I'd stick to the burger and fries, since the dessert did not wow me as much. Ambience is good. You get to see people test driving Porsches as an experience package, and you can't go wrong with any seat. Service could be a bit better for a higher price tagged restaurant, as it took a few reminders to get water and fulfill requests. After your meal, you can go to the balcony to see a more birds eye view of the track and enjoy downstairs gift shop and other cars. read more

Beautiful restaurant with great service and delicious food. We were seated in a private room and the server took good care of us and refilled our champagne and sparkling water throughout the meal. I loved the pretzel bread and the Porsche shaped butter with flake salt. We ordered several appetizers to share and each ordered our own main course. From what I can tell, everyone seemed to enjoy their selection. I ordered the scallops, which were very good, and I tried my husband's strip loin which was perfectly medium rare. I especially enjoyed the potatoes that came with it...it was in flaky layers crispy on outside. read more

Great food, greater service and perfect ambiance! How's that for a review? Wife brought me here for the Porsche driving experience and I was in heaven just doing that, but this restaraunt is one that befits this place. We shared the burger and this was THE best burger I have ever had. Fries were just as good. The beef was high quality and cooked to perfection. Yeah I know I made claim to a previous "best burger in LA" previously but this 917 burger beats that smash burger. Note this is not a smash burger but a good old fashion patty that's juicy and seasoned to perfection. The service was very, very good (we were there for lunch yesterday 1/27/26. The ambiance was a view of the race track, what could be better! read more

Exec summary: The food is amazing. Get the duck! The staff are so friendly And you overlook the track They require reservations and are booked about a month in advance. Which is peculiar as, when I was there , there were empty tables. The staff are attentive and universally nice. Like all upscale restaurants, they give you space but are readily available. Appetizer: we got the octopus. Cooked to perfection HOWEVER, I looked at envy at the table next door as they had the pretzel bread and got the butter shaped like a Porsche. Order THAT for no other reason than the butter Main: the duck confit was perfection itself ! I love duck and it is absolutely amazing. The lobby is filled with amazing race cars. And, it's totally fun to watch the folks go out on the track and do various car evolutions - skid pad, drifting etc. My wife , not a huge car person , but for me this was amazing! Loved it. It was our anniversary and they sent over a lovely little trifle - unexpected and very much appreciated. This place is all class read more

We have been here several times now with friends and families, for special events and gatherings. Service is always exceptional, their manager Haley is one of the main reasons we keep returning. She's absolutely fantastic. What she does and can curate a perfect meal for you and your family or any event you may be celebrating here. The food is clearly chef driven, from presentation to flavor. Everything is exquisite! The prices are high, but given the views of the cars racing and the quality of the items it is well worth the splurge! The cocktails, as well as cocktails are fantastic and be sure to save room for dessert! Highly recommended! read more

Went here earlier today and i give it a 10000/10. I definitely would recommend and come back. A bit pricey but i mean given the experience that we get to watch out the window. Our server Alex was very kind and attentive. Absolutely love the food. We got the sea bass and jidori chicken. And the sea bass was the best grilled fish entree i've ever had and nothing could compare it to. The restaurant looked really nice and the ambiance of it is like fine dining vibes. If i could i'd order the seabass every time!! read more

I've been meaning to come here for a while -- as I have many business related customers I take to dine and meet over lunch. I didn't have a reservation, but figured it wouldn't be too busy at 11:15 am. When we arrived there were many tables available. I was told they were all reserved and the only available seating was at the bar. I watched the tables over the course of our lunch at the bar and couldn't help but notice that several tables went empty the entire time we were there. I wanted to sit face-to-face with my customer, not bar style, so that was a bit uncomfortable during the meal. We started with the BLUEFIN TUNA $32.00 smoked ginger, jalapeño, onion, truffle ponzu -- it was an excellent appetizer and it should be at that price point. For mains, she ordered the SNAKE RIVER FARM STRIPLOIN - $57.00 potato pavé, chimichurri, broccolini, port reduction. I ordered the JIDORI CHICKEN $35.00 - creamed potatoes, haricot verts, mushrooms, red wine cream. I asked her what she thought of the steak and she said it was good, but not great. I would comment similarly to my dish -- it was good but not anything I would probably order again. The DUCK FAT FRIES $18! -- truffle salt, garlic aioli, fines herbes - were quite good and they should be for that price point. We both had desserts which were nice. Brown Butter Bourbon Ice Cream $13.00 brown butter streusel, crushed toffee . Really nice dessert -- not too sweet. I asked the bartender for the check. She didn't smile or say anything. I said it again. She says to me: "I heard you the first time." It was really embarrassing that a server would talk to a customer dropping $200+ on a lunch in front of a client. I would expect a lot more service for a $200+ lunch! Not sure if I'll come back here. The bartender left a really bad taste in my mouth. read more

The view alone is worth mentioning. You sit there watching Porsches being pushed on the track while you eat, which is a pretty crazy backdrop for a lunch date. They started us off with these little pretzel style French baguettes and Porsche shaped butter that honestly looked too cool to cut into. The bread had a great crunch and the butter was perfect. I played it safe and ordered the 917 burger. It is their eight ounce Wagyu burger and I am really glad I went with it. Cooked perfectly medium rare, super juicy, great garlic aioli, thick bacon, onions, gruyere, and a really solid bun. One of the better burgers I have had in a while. I upgraded to the truffle fries which tasted like regular fries. Good fries, but definitely not truffle forward at all, so that was disappointing. My wife ordered the pan seared salmon. It was cooked perfectly and tasted good, but nothing special or memorable for a forty five dollar entree. More of a solid dish rather than an impressive dish. Service was great and everyone was super friendly. The setting is honestly the star of the show. You are really paying for the experience and the atmosphere. Overall I would go back for the burger and the vibes, but I think some of the dishes could be better for the price. The burger hit. The fries missed. The salmon sat somewhere in the middle. Still would recommend to check out the cars! read more

Service was A+ our waitress had so much character and made great conversation with us. She answered questions with great detail and checked in on us multiple times. The hostess were also very friendly. Overall service from everyone was great! The butter was so cute! It was literally shaped like a Porsche! We got the scallops and octopus for appetizers. Both very delicious. My mom really enjoyed the sauce with the scallops. Everyone ordered the 917 burger but I ordered the duck with a side of duck fat fries. The burgers looked good and came with fries and portion was pretty big and the meat was wagyu. They seemed to enjoy it. The duck was pretty good as well, very flavorful. But my favorite had to be the duck fat fries! So flavorful, my parents were munching on my fries instead of their plain ones that came with the burger. While you eat there is view of the track and an observation deck watch the cars go. That was really fun to watch. I had to make reservations a few months in advance to go on a Saturday. Check on open table 2-3 months before your desired date and you can also call and maybe they can fit you in as well. read more

Food was great, service was great, seating by the window and seeing the Porsche driving experiences was phenomenal. It was above and beyond to what I've expected.

First review after several visits here. It does take about 1-2 weeks for a lunch reservation and it's worth the wait. Had their 917 Burger today and it was a juicy mess but one that worth getting my hands dirty! The toasted bun along with the juicy hamburger patty cooked perfectly. Bacon was crispy and had great flavor too. French fries were cooked perfectly with a crunchy crust and firm inside. This restaurant is always busy and great views as I always enjoy going out to the balcony to watch the Porsches on track. read more

I found these photos from my birthday last year and man I remember this day so clearly. It was an unreal experience, my gf booked this MONTHS in advance because of high demand. The inside felt very rich, business, expensive just so fancy. The food was amazing and delicious paired with the view !? Man, I was like a little kid in a toy shop. The service was amazing and even greeted me happy birthday and gave me a dessert on the house that wasn't even on the menu. Truly an unforgettable experience, to drive the porches is separate if you wanted to get that experience in. read more

Today was a wreck at the 917. First time at PEC so wanted to check out the options. The helpful gentleman at visitor check in recommended i see the restaurant. I was a single so hostess sat me at the bar by request. Then it got weird, I became invisible. The bartender(s) said Nothing to me. For like a while. It was literally uncomfortable silence. No hello. No be right with you, just making cocktails but not friends. After about 5 minutes I went back to the hostess to let her know I'd been ignored for that whole time. Bartender finally acknowledged me and gave a half hearted apology and excuse about busy finishing an order. No multi tasking here. I ordered a beer and hit the balcony to watch the track / cars. Cool. Came back and the mess at the chair next to me was still there. Jeez for a VHE very high end establishment wtfudge. No water offered yet despite an empty glass. Ordered some duck fat fries. Duck Confit was delivered. Yikes, amateur hour. Manager asked if I received any bread. Nope. Crash and Burn my hide. And now it gets good, better. The pretzel stix and butter (shaped like little porches) was Excellent. When the fries came out, they were hot crispy and smelled divine. The flavor was also very deep. So the kitchen was on point. After signing my bill, tender asked if I'd like some water. Talk about difficulty getting off the line. I would certainly give them another try, but the hospitality today was Out of GAS. read more

This is a great place for a date spot or to take your porsche lover friends to visit. To begin, there is a huge parking space for you to park at. You walk in the front doors and they ask you to check in where you fill out a waiver form. On the first floor there are lots of car models on display for you to look at! My favorite was the GT4rs. There's also a 3D model of a map of the whole experience center as well as a Porsche shop (for you to get merchandise) and a cafe with outdoor seating to directly watch the porsche cars go on the track! To go to the restaurant, you take an elevator or stairs up to the second floor where they check you in for your table. All the seating in the restaurant allows you to watch the porsche on the track course which was great! I will point out that our service was a bit slow as we waited 20 minutes before our order was even taken; I feel that the restaurant service may not be as well, but this place is more so for the experience you have going there and watching the cars on the track. We ordered the 917 burger and the eggplant which both tasted good. The burger wasn't too dry and the patty meat was flavorful. The eggplant was nice although I wished it was cooked a bit softer. The sauce on it was delectable though! The burger comes with fries but we upgraded them to truffle fries which costed an additional 25. I feel that people usually would come for the experience more than the food though! We came for a birthday and I brought in a cake, however, they do charge an additional cake service fee for bringing outside food in. They offer demonstration laps around the course for prices that range from 115-160 depending on the model you pick. You have to book in advance though through their online website as there are no walk-ins. read more

ORDER 917 burger (5/5) short ribs ragu (4/5) the burger was so good! we upgraded the fries to the duck fat fries, which was so worth it. the burger was flavorful and juicy. the short ribs ragu was good as well. it was super meaty and was the perfect serving size. the prices were reasonable as well.. everything was delicious and filling. SERVICE our server was nice, but i wish we got better service. as soon as we got seated, we were offered water. after that, we waited awhile before our order was actually taken. i noticed the complimentary pretzel and butter was given basically when other guests got seated, but we didn't get ours until a lot later. aside from explaining the daily specials and taking our order, our server was not the most attentive. the restaurant is relatively small, so i expected better service. overall, not bad but i was expecting better.

This is definitely a great date spot for anyone who is really into cars or is looking for good food in general! I took my boyfriend here for his birthday last month and he said it was one of his best birthdays yet. We had a reservation for 1:15pm on a Saturday but arrived 30-45 mins before. Upon our arrival and after checking in, the host was able to get us seated right away. Our waiter immediately came over after we got seated and greeted us before asking what we wanted to drink. He was very attentive, quick, and knowledgeable. I wish I got his name! We ordered the waygu burger with duck fat fries and the short rib ragu. The waygu burger was cooked perfectly and was very juicy (8/10). The duck fat fries were crispy and is definitely something to try. I didn't think cooking fries in duck fat would make it so different but it was delicious (8/10). The short rib ragu had to be our favorite. The pasta was cooked at a perfect Al dente and the sauce was very flavorful (9/10). While we were eating, we had an amazing view of the track/course. We could see all the cars performing different tricks on the different areas of the track (hydroplaning, drifting, simply going fast, etc..) Because we had an experience booked following our meal, it built anticipation and made it super exciting. Definitely look forward to coming back again in the future for celebrations! read more

We'd heard good things about the restaurant at the Porsche Experience Center and were disappointed we couldn't book a table when my husband made his drive appointment, like a month in advance. As it turns out, reservations are scarce but you can totally walk in, as we did this past Saturday. I'm guessing a lot of tables are set aside for the drive experience customers, who spend hundreds of dollars to go around a track and might appreciate a place to sit and eat. My husband's drive wrapped up at 11:00, along with all the other 9:30 appointments, and we stopped by Restaurant 917 just in case they had an opening for our party of four. We were seated immediately. The space was great, sunny and relaxing with a view of the track, though no one was driving at that particular hour. The vibe was a little businessy, a little upscale chain hotel lobby, with good service and a full bar. No one was mad that we were there with small kids. In fact, they both got Porsche coloring books and crayons when we sat down. We got a round of drinks and they were both nice and refreshing. The Tropical Drift was a sweet tall cocktail with Kikkori whiskey, peach, and tropical tea. The Ruby Star was a breezy tequila drink with Tequileño, hibiscus flower, yuzu, and ginger. The food was solid, starting with some pretzel bread served with butter and salt. The butter was shaped into a pair of Porsches (don't ask me what model), which was kind of a cute detail. My husband and I shared a scallop crudo, which was pretty delicious. Silky raw scallop with strawberry, cherry tomato, jalapeño, cucumber, avocado, cilantro, tangerine oil, and a zippy green aguachile sauce. I got the 917 burger for my entrée, and this was decent, with an 8 oz. wagyu patty, garlic aioli, bacon, caramelized onion, and gruyère. It needed some acid and tasted much better when I borrowed some jalapeño from the crudo. I paid to upgrade the side of fries to duck fat fries with truffle salt, garlic aioli, and herbs. I liked the seasoning and herbs, but the fries were soft and pale. The kids got butter pasta and chicken tenders with fries, and their fries were better than mine. I wouldn't go out of my way for Restaurant 917, but I was glad to get lunch there when we were already at the Porsche Experience Center. Don't be intimidated by the dearth of reservations. If you're a Porsche customer, they want you to have the car-shaped butter. read more

Amazing from beginning to the end. Thank you front desk for being so accommodating. My appointment was at 1 PM but we were early because we did the demonstration lap at the experience center which is just downstairs and outside. We went at 12pm and they took us in. Really thankful. Food was amazing all around! Love everything from the complimentary bread to the main entree of any beef. Thank you staff for small gift of banana bread for our anniversary at the end of the meal. The steak was soft at medium rare and was cooked perfectly. Nothing else to say but amazing amazing experience all around! I would come back again! read more

WOW!!! First timers and we loved our experience! This place books up quickly so keep checking their website for reservation slots. My fiancé made reservations three months in advance. The race track can be seen from all tables but of course the best view is anywhere by the window. Service was a 10/10. Everyone was beyond friendly and made some great recommendations. FOOD/DRINKS: *Pretzel Bread w/Butter - This is complimentary. The bread was warm and soft. The butter was shaped like a Porsche which was very cute! *Peach & Tamarind Mulita - This was my favorite drink! I've never had a peach and tamarind mule before and it was very good. It's great if you don't want a super sweet drink. *Blueberry Basil Margarita - The blueberry and basil combo was delicious. Very refreshing too. *Hamachi Crudo - Beautiful dish! Each bite was packed with flavor. The yellowtail was fresh. I loved the smoked ginger and garlic bits on top. *6oz Hangar Steak - The steak was sooo tender and I enjoyed the chimichurri. The mashed potatoes were well seasoned. *Maine Lobster Pasta - Delicious! The lobster was a decent size and cooked perfectly. The sauce was creamy and the capers added a nice tang to the dish. *Peanut Butter Chocolate Bar - It tasted like an elevated Reese's cup with ice cream. If you love the peanut butter & chocolate combo, you'll love this one. read more

I was not expecting much from this restaurant, I thought the restaurant would be more of an afterthought to the race course. However, I was so pleasantly surprised! Overall, the food is really solid and decently priced, especially given how nice the restaurant is and how good the service is as well. The pretzel bread is so good, it comes out warm and the butter melts on top as you're spreading it! I ordered the chicken breast, and it was actually really tender! The beef tartare is also really good, even though it doesn't look the most appetizing. My husband and I enjoyed the meal and had fun watching the race track as well! If you want to be seated right by the window, I recommend either getting an 11:30am reservation (right when they open) or around 1pm, once the first group starts clearing out. read more

Loved the food here! Calamari was perfectly done, not chewy at all and full of flavor. Salad was also excellent with just the right amount of dressing. Skirt steak was tender with nice presentation. Tasted better than a ribeye steak I just had at a high end steakhouse! Scallop was cooked perfectly. Breadsticks were excellent with car shaped butter and flake salt. Service was attentive and friendly as well. Perfect view of the track! Can't ask for much more! Highly recommended! read more

Good food and good views! To kill two birds with one stone, I had made a reservation here for after my girlfriend's demo lap for her birthday. The restaurant isn't hard to find, there's a "917" sign in the hallway around the corner from the restrooms. You'll see down the hallway to the left of the cafe if you're coming from the gift shop. We checked in with the host a few minutes prior to our reservation and got seated shortly after. There are big windows where you get a nice view of the track below. There's also a small area where you can go outside and have a good view (and hear the cars). There aren't many items on the menu so it made it easier for us to choose. I ordered the 917 Old Fashion, my girlfriend ordered the Pineapple Pisco Sour, and we both ordered the 917 Burger. While waiting, we received water (you get a few options for water) and pretzel bread. The verdict? - 917 Old Fashion: Fat-washed woodinville bourbon and angostura butters. I'm a whiskey guy and loved it. Basic and to the point, my kind of drink. Alcohol forward 8). - Pineapple Pisco Sour: Pisco, pineapple juice, lemon cordial, egg white, and tajin. I only took a small sip, it was sweet but good. My girlfriend enjoyed it (all of it). - 917 Burger: 8oz American wagyu beef, caramelized onions, raclette cheese, smoked bacon, garlic aioli, and fries. By default it is cooked medium rare, but when it came out more medium. It was a big, juicy burger and it was a little bit messy. The garlic aioli definitely helped enhance the flavor, it was good. The fries were good. - Pretzel Bread: I had to absolutely mention these. They were decent sized and I loved them. The included butter were molded little Porsches and the flakes of salt were good. Complimentary. We liked them so much that we went through 2 baskets of them. Service was good. The woman who sat us was extremely friendly, like too friendly. Our server was nice as well and checked up on us every so often. A good place for a date, especially if combo'd with a driving experience or demo lap. Reservations are a must! read more
