Sci-Fi Dine-In Theater Description:
Let's just say up front that this place isn't packed because of the (forgettable) food; it's packed because of the clever setting, a re-creation of a 1950s drive-in theater smack in the middle of the Hollywood Hills. Fiber-optic stars twinkle overhead, and on the big screen are vintage sci-fi and monster flicks---trailers from Cat Women of the Moon and Invasion of the Saucerman and more. You're seated in re-creations of flashy, chrome-gilded cars from the '50s, and carhops in campy drive-in garb take your order. The food, however, is fine for the setting: salads, sandwiches and substantial appetizers that you can munch while watching The Amazing Colossal Man. At lunch, you can't go wrong with the Reuben or the burger with crinkle-cut fries. You'll find seared tofu and barbecued ribs on the dinner menu, but stick with the simple, less expensive fare. For a dramatic finale, try the peanut butter chocolate cake or a slice of cheesecake.
