  • The newest launch from Elon Musk’s electric vehicle maker is a diner.
  • Tesla just opened a new facility in Hollywood that’s part diner, drive-in, and Supercharging station.
  • Musk has been teasing a drive-in diner and theater since 2018.

It’s part diner, part drive-in, and no dive. (Sorry, Guy Fieri fans.)

We’re talking about the latest launch from Tesla, which, as some may be surprised to learn, is … a diner?

Located in Hollywood, California, the Tesla Diner — a classic diner and Supercharging station all in one — opened Monday (at one of Musk’s favorite times, no less: 4:20 p.m.)

It’s the culmination of an idea Elon Musk talked about as far back as 2018, when he floated the idea of “an old school drive-in, roller skates & rock restaurant.”

Take a look inside:

The Tesla Diner is in West Hollywood, California.

Tesla says the facility can seat more than 250 people in its two-story restaurant.

It’s open 24 hours a day, 7 days a week.

The menu includes classic American diner fare, like a burger and fries, with a twist.

The diner’s website says it has 80 Supercharger stalls.

These are compatible with electric vehicles from Tesla and a handful of other carmakers.

Besides the food and charging access, it’s also part drive-in movie theater.

The facility has been years in the making.

Musk first talked about plans for a diner in 2018.

This is the only Tesla Diner in the world for now — but maybe not for long.
