They need to work on putting better food on the menu especially when youre just snacking on something late at night when your charging up and want to have a lite bite. The best I could find on the menu was the egg bite, kind of tasted like gasoline abrasive to the pallette but I guess it isnt so bad if it truly is organic and good for you. The rest food items seem like heartburn waiting to happen past as 10pm bites. And the other healthy choices like the salad or fruit dont seem exciting. The drinks arent so unique just fountain drinks maybe a house juice would be good. Tesla also starts out low key maybe next time I come back it will be better

I enjoyed it for what it is. It's a fun futuristic, but also throw back at the same time. It's like a 50's cafe like a drive in movie, but digital screens. Charge your car and go eat overpriced, but otherwise good food. It's served in Tesla cybertruck boxes. The service is what is the most awkward. You can order from your car which is cool, or order at the kiosk, but you need to go get your food and take it to the cool tables up or downstairs. There's only one bathroom downstairs, but more upstairs.

The Tesla Diner in West Hollywood combines charging and diner style food in a one location. Sitting on the corner of a busy intersection in Weho - Tesla Diner is a definite must visit for any Tesla fans. Full disclaimer - I don't own a Tesla but came here with my friend who owns a Tesla and wanted to charge and check this place out for himself. There are a good amount of Level 4 chargers both in the main lot and secondary lot. The main lot chargers are treated with two massive drive in theater movie screens which at the time, the Jetson were playing as well as Freaky Friday. The diner itself has seating on the first floor for about 30 guest with tables and bar seating while the outdoor roof deck has alot more seating around the perimeter. As far as the food my first impression was that it was pricey. For example their basic smashburger named the Tesla Giga Burger was $14. The meat was smashed and thin and it is covered in sauteed onions and sauce. It was ok and just felt that should have been a $10-$12 burger. The fries were also ok but they also offered special sauces which you had to pay for. I did add a fountain drink and the server did say they use cane sugar colas and that was pretty good. I wanted to try more entrees like their chili and cookies but again I just felt like the prices were very high and did want to take the gamble on them after having my burger. Overall cool experience visiting the Tesla Diner which provided a unique charging experience in a very Tesla centric atmosphere.

The Tesla Diner is definitely a unique charging location, and one that I would recommend you check out if you own a Tesla and are in the area. Unfortunately I don't think it hasn't turned out quite as expected, but it's still a neat charging location worth checking out. Oh yeah, you can also order (expensive) food!

I love how convenient and easy it is to get to this diner. There are lots of charging stations, but you might have to wait for a parking spot if it's busy. When you do find a parking spot, head into the diner to order your food or drinks on the kiosk. They are a little overpriced, but you get good quality and quantity. The diner is themed nicely and pretty clean, despite being very busy on a Sunday afternoon. We only ordered beverages on our visit, but will return someday to try the food options.

Food & movie while charging with free popcorn? Yes, please! My tuna melt, fries, and all of the condiment to try came out to be $35 but the food wasn't bad. Order at the kiosk and pick up the food downstairs. It's a neat experience and great for kids!

Came to charge the car and found out one can also order food! Excellent customer service!

A gold star Tesla oasis in Hollywood that further justifies why I live being in the Tesla ecosystem. A great spot to supercharge, go to the restroom, get a bite to eat and relax in a futuristic setting. See my photos to see what I mean by futurisitic. The red carpet at the Diner entrance definitely says Hollywood baby! Staff is super friendly each time I've visited. A winning hack for me is taking a walk around Hollywood while my Tesla supercharges! Anyone with an EV can supercharge here with EVs only allowed in the parking lot. A definite 5 star experience for me everytime Yelpers!

Super awesome experience! Park, charge your car, and grab some amazing grub! Tried the chicken sandwich, the giga burger, and fries; all the food was super fresh and delicious! Well-operated, friendly staff, and very clean. Will be stopping by on my next trip through town!

Cyber truck burger boxes and Tesla charger popcorn

I am a Tesla owner and go to LA quite frequently from San Diego for acting gigs. One day when I was in Los Angeles I randomly passed by the Tesla diner not even knowing such a thing existed. I had to check it out. I also went back a couple weekends ago and had to show my husband when we were in LA. You will never find more chargers in one spot and at night there are huge screens playing drive-in movies. You can also go inside to grab a bite as well as go on the second level to get a Birdseye view. Inside looks like space Mountain had a baby with a diner. I really didn't care for the food to be honest. We got burgers. But what do you expect? It's more for the cool atmosphere. You can also order from the screen in your Tesla. Bonus tip. There's free popcorn on the second level. Such a great place to charge up in LA.

Definitely a futuristic take on a cafe, I was immediately reminded of old movie scenes and how the 'future' was seen. My party was notified that we have a time limit on dining so we ate within 30 minutes while our Tesla was being charged. Service was great, the people were kind. There was water on the stairs which was a little dangerous. The view from the second floor was cool but is very sunny as there's not much shading. There are two large screens where you can hear what's playing on the 2nd floor as well. It's cool to visit for the one time as it was very pricey.

Food served in cute Tesla box

Fun experience while you charge your Tesla. Despite being in the heart of Hollywood, it was packed! There was a wait to find an open charging spot. The diner is cool inside, food is a bit pricey, a regular smash burger is $15 after tax and does not include fries. The upper level has 2 big screens where you can watch a movie while enjoying your food or have some of their free popcorn. Staff is friendly. There is also an option to order from your car and they bring the food to you. Restrooms are clean but only 3 or 4 so there was a wait.

Issues connecting to the movie

I liked the Tesla Diner a lot more than I thought I would! I came on the one year anniversary and they had roller skating gals delivering orders to your car. I came back a week later and it was just a guy dressed in black walking the order to my car. Classic movies playing on the two drive-in theater type screens. I was never able to get my Tesla car to play the movie and sound inside though. Neat interior with Tesla displays and Optimus Prime on exhibit. Free popcorn upstairs and good viewing deck for the movie. It was a few minutes wait to get into the parking lot the first time, and they had lots of staff directing traffic and kicking out people who were sleeping in cars.

What time does the movie start?

It was already playing when we got there about 5:30pm. I think that was very close to the beginning.

Trying to avoid that long line, is it packed around 10am on a Tuesday? EDIT: sorry I should have mentioned the diner not for parking. Currently I don't have a Tesla and I want to take my little one inside to eat and see the futuristic diner.

No, easy parking if driving a Tesla

Whats better burger with bun or without?

Get one of each 😉

Can you visiting the diner if you don't own an electric car?

Absolutely.

Are non-Tesla cars with the Tesla membership allowed to charge here? (Mustang MachE specifically)

Yes, I own a Mach-E and we stopped here to charge and grab a bite to eat.

Do they have vegan options?

no 0 vegan options

I have never eaten at Mel's Diner although to be honest, I love a diner!!!…read moreWalking inside the door, I was pleasantly surprised at how cool it is inside. A great vibe! Wonderful and comfortable seating and a terrific waitstaff whose name escapes me but he is a Canadian Actor from Toronto who is just a delight! Great energy and super personable! Only his second day, but the service was outstanding! A great cheeseburger with a fries/onion rings combo and an Arnold Palmer hit the spot. I appreciate a good burger and this was terrific. Onion rings were great! Skinny fries are not my favorite kind but I still ate a few and they were delicious! My friend had a delicious breakfast burrito ... what was really great besides the service and the atmosphere was our talking for 1 and a 1/2 hours only pausing to take a quick bite or two ... Why the 4 vs 5 stars? The parking lot charges a lot of money. $13.50 is a bit steep, don't you think? Unfortunately, there's not a lot of street parking because I looked and that's when I just pulled into the parking lot and stupidly did not read the sign. The guy told me that with validation, it would not be super expensive!!! Well, it was ... So the place is great. The parking is ridiculously expensive but at the end of the day, it was a great experience.

About the best on Hollywood Blvd, but somewhat overpriced for what it is…read more Came in for breakfast. I appreciate the large portions and decent service. However, the food was kind of on the bland side. Maybe that is related to the older demographic they seem to primarily serve. Nothing was bad, but also not really of note. The inside was clean and bright- all about that Hollywood retro vibe. The weirdest thing we encountered was the parking situation. There was a lot, but the parking attendant seemed to be having a bad morning. He was actively annoyed we did not have cash. Again, considering a lot of food in that area are just chains- it was good. Just maybe not the best breakfast in LA.

Actually, as a Seth Rogen fan I heard him regularly talking about and endorsing the spot, so had to try it on visits when I was in town. Now that I've lived here over 6 years, I have been here many times. As a local, I really like it because there usually isn't a wait and I can usually get a parking spot in their small lot. I say usually for both pieces because this is LA, baby! We're unpredictable! Anything can happen. Keep in mind, this is NOT the main location with It definitely gives old school NY deli diner vibes with vinyl booths and decor. A bunch of movies and TV shows have filmed here, important conversations happen here all the time, They have all the Jewish comfort foods you could want here including some more diner style items. They're famous for their pastrami and corned beef sandwiches, pastrami reubens, matzo ball soup, egg salad sandwiches & latkes/potato pancakes. Esquire Mag says their monte cristo is a must try! I agree, as it comes on their challah egg bread and is just so darn decadent. I also love the Fairfax which is half pastrami and half corned beef so you get the best of both worlds, plus swiss cheese, sauerkraut and Russian dressing. Apparently the house-pickled pickles are a thing pickle lovers say are great. They have a bakery full of fresh items for carbmaxxing like black & white cookies (they're great here), breads like rye & the aforementioned challah and chocolate chip rugelach (kind of a cookie croissant hybrid). Interesting little bit, perhaps because they are adjacent to Kibitiz Room (a dive-ish bar with live music), they also have a full bar service. They're also on Goldbelly so you can get some eats shipped right to your door outside of LA!

We go to Canter's a lot. We eat there and have pick up. I have not reviewed them in about 2 years…read moreso I thought is was about time that I reminded you how wonderful Canter's Deli is. First, the place is old and shows some wear. I find that charming and would rather they not change a thing. The place is large and can hold a lot of people. It also has a counter and behind a door is a bar area that sometimes has music. The place is always spotless and comfortable. You will never feel rushed. They have the best bakery which includes fresh bread, cakes, cookies and pastries. All of their food is great. We love the melts and anything with corned beef or pastrami on it. They make the best sandwiches and their soup is also great. They also have breakfast items and all are cooker perfectly. This is one of the best Jewish deli's in town.

Tons of shrimp, crispy bacon, lettuce and tomato on perfectly grilled bread. Such a simple combination, but everything worked together so well.

Thick slices, perfectly golden on the outside and soft in the middle, topped with powdered sugar and butter. Add some syrup and it's basically breakfast heaven. This is definitely not the place for a light breakfast , but that's exactly why I love it. Huge portions, great comfort food, and one of those classic LA breakfast spots that actually lives up to the hype. The shrimp BLT and French toast are both a YES for me. 5 stars!
