Tesla Diner Draws Crowds, Protests, and Mixed Reviews

Elon Musk's flagship Tesla Diner has opened in Hollywood, Los Angeles, featuring a retrofuturistic design, 80 Supercharger stations, drive-in movie screens, and robots serving food. The 24/7 eatery, seating 250 guests and offering classic American fare such as burgers and waffles, quickly drew large crowds with wait times of several hours. While the innovative atmosphere and Tesla-themed features received praise, many visitors criticized the chaotic service, long waits, and disappointing food quality, including lack of plant-based options. The opening has also sparked protests from anti-Musk groups, citing concerns over Musk's business practices, political activities, and his feud with Donald Trump. Despite these challenges, the diner has gained significant attention on social media. Musk has expressed plans to expand the diner concept to other major cities worldwide if the Hollywood location proves successful.
