Just when you think you’ve heard about every single restaurant in Southern California, a new one seems to pop up on your radar that must instantly go on your dining bucket list. Even though this classic has been around for quite some time in SoCal, it’s one of those restaurants that you may not have heard about until now as most people find out about this diner through word of mouth.
Pull up to this local diner in Southern California and for a moment you might think you've just pulled into the parking lot of an old Hollywood movie studio.
But don't be fooled, as this "movie studio" is actually a diner. Located in San Diego at 4701 Ruffin Road, the Studio Diner is especially captivating at night when the warm twinkle of the restaurant lights create that movie magic glow we all know and love.
Show up on a Friday, Saturday, or Sunday and you'll find the Studio Diner open 24 hours on each of those days. If hunger strikes at midnight or maybe even 2am you're in luck as Studio Diner is always open on the weekends.
Step inside and you'll be treated to a classic diner complete with counter seating that will make you feel as though you've stepped back in time.
Take a look at the menu and you'll find lots of great appetizers to order. If you find you can't decide which one to order, you might enjoy the sampler platter so you can sample each one to see what you like best.
The menu is filled with good old fashioned comfort food like country fried steak and a side of hash browns.
When you have a hearty appetite, go for the hot open-faced sandwich loaded with waffle fries to fill you up.
Show up for breakfast and we recommend trying a classic dish like Eggs Benedict with a side of hash browns. Nothing like a plate of comfort food to start your day.
Or better yet, how about ordering a pancake shaped just like an old Hollywood film reel?! That looks like a festive way to embrace the fun of this place.
If you'd rather be out in the warm SoCal air while dining at Studio Diner, you can always grab a seat outside. Just be on the lookout for movie set pieces like this random creature who might be watching you while you eat.
What a fun local experience to try out for a memorable meal. You can find Studio Diner at 4701 Ruffin Road in San Diego. For those early birds and night owls out there, just remember you can experience Studio Diner all day and night on Friday, Saturday and Sunday.
