A woman was injured at Elon Musk’s newly opened Tesla diner in Hollywood when a piece of patio furniture fell on her head, the woman’s husband told TMZ. Valentina, 21, and her husband George—who did not reveal their last name—were dining on the rooftop patio and had just received their food when an outdoor patio covering came loose and “brutally” struck Valentina in the head. “It barely missed our baby’s head by inches,” George said. Afterward, Valentina seemed confused and briefly lost consciousness. Paramedics with the Los Angeles Fire Department responded to the incident, which, according to George, was caught on the restaurant’s surveillance video. The couple plans to sue the diner, which didn’t respond to TMZ’s request for comment. The Tesla Diner and Drive-In Restaurant and Supercharger, a futuristic take on a 1950s diner that features electric vehicle chargers, has only been open for a week but has already faced a slew of criticisms. Tesla super fans who lined up for the grand opening complained of long lines, flustered staff, and “awful” burgers and sandwiches. “I came with high hopes, but this was one of the worst burgers I’ve ever had in my life. The fries were so overcooked too,” on user wrote on X.
