‘The overall vibe was total chaos’: Tesla Diner goes viral for long waits and mixed reviews

The new Tesla Diner in Hollywood has opened to mixed online reviews, with many customers experiencing extremely long wait times. While some praised specific menu items like the spicy chicken sandwich, others found the food underwhelming. One reviewer highlighted a disappointing "Epic Bacon" dish, which has since been removed from the menu. The diner's retro-futuristic design is noted, but the overall experience is often described as chaotic. Issues with the Tesla app's ordering system are reportedly common, even for Tesla owners who are supposed to receive priority. Some customers have reported exceptionally poor dining experiences, with long waits for food and a lack of functionality in the ordering system. The venue also includes a drive-in movie theater and charging stations. Despite Elon Musk calling it "one of the coolest spots in LA," public opinion remains divided. Some reviewers expressed a preference for more traditional dining establishments over the Tesla Diner. Concerns about the atmosphere and the concentration of Tesla drivers have also been raised.
