The Experience at the Petersen.

The Johnny Rockets at The Petersen is The Great American Burger Restaurant at The Great American Automotive Museum. Its motif is meant to capture all of Americana. The décor includes juke boxes, chrome accents, and red leather seats, while the walls are adorned with images of America's past. Customers are served by waiters and waitresses dressed in period attire. The staff is known to sing, dance, twirl straws, and make ketchup smiley faces!

Fittingly, Johnny Rockets is located on the first floor of The Petersen Automotive Museum, which contains a walk-through diorama known as "The Streetscape". This area allows visitors to experience automotive history as it relates to Southern California instead of viewing it from afar. It gives a very authentic experience, much like the dining experience at Johnny Rockets!
