The view alone is worth mentioning. You sit there watching Porsches being pushed on the track while you eat, which is a pretty crazy backdrop for a lunch date. They started us off with these little pretzel style French baguettes and Porsche shaped butter that honestly looked too cool to cut into. The bread had a great crunch and the butter was perfect.
I played it safe and ordered the 917 burger. It is their eight ounce Wagyu burger and I am really glad I went with it. Cooked perfectly medium rare, super juicy, great garlic aioli, thick bacon, onions, gruyere, and a really solid bun. One of the better burgers I have had in a while. I upgraded to the truffle fries which tasted like regular fries. Good fries, but definitely not truffle forward at all, so that was disappointing.
My wife ordered the pan seared salmon. It was cooked perfectly and tasted good, but nothing special or memorable for a forty five dollar entree. More of a solid dish rather than an impressive dish.
Service was great and everyone was super friendly. The setting is honestly the star of the show. You are really paying for the experience and the atmosphere. Overall I would go back for the burger and the vibes, but I think some of the dishes could be better for the price. The burger hit. The fries missed. The salmon sat somewhere in the middle. Still would recommend to check out the cars!

If you’re even thinking about dining at Restaurant 917, stop thinking and just GO. This was hands-down one of the most memorable lunches I’ve had in a long time — everything from the service to the views to the drinks to the food was beyond top tier.
Let me start with Ivan. Ivan was SO amazing from the moment we sat down — warm, attentive, knowledgeable, and genuinely elevated the entire experience. He made us feel taken care of without ever being overbearing. Hospitality done right.
The views are next level. You’re literally overlooking the Porsche Experience Center, watching the “boys” zip around in their toys while you sip a perfectly crafted cocktail. It’s soothing, fascinating, and honestly a vibe.
Speaking of cocktails… the 917 Old Fashioned is silky. Truly one of the most balanced Old Fashioneds I’ve had — smooth, aromatic, expertly made. A perfect pre-meal moment.
The 917 Burger is iconic for a reason: juicy, flavorful, beautifully built, and the bacon? Unreal. The bone marrow appetizer was rich, buttery, and decadent without being heavy — exactly how bone marrow should be done.
And then came the poached Asian pear with burnt rice ice cream, which should honestly have its own fan club. Light, elegant, and the kind of dessert you remember long after the plates are cleared.
From start to finish, everything was flawless. Restaurant 917 is luxury dining with heart — exceptional food, incredible drinks, breathtaking views, and service that sets the standard. Easily a 5-star experience.

Restaurant 917 located at Porsche in Carson. Great experience and didn’t expect it to be so packed during lunch on a weekday. Overall, zero complaints on the entire experience.
NOTE: They DO NOT have cash anywhere onsite they ONLY take card.
FOOD 4/5
Spanish Octopus = SOFT AND DELISH
Harissa aioli, roasted poblano relish, chorizo, chicharron
SHORT RIB RAGU = A GOOD AMOUNT OF SHORT RIB IN IT
spinach fettuccine, red pepper, white cheddar
GEM SALAD = SOLID SALAD
feta, cucumbers, watermelon, black garlic croutons, green goddess
Need to try:
917 BURGER = SINCE EVERYONE ALL AROUND ME HAD THIS
8oz wagyu beef, garlic aioli, bacon, caramelized onion, gruyère
DUCK FAT FRIES = SAME AS ABOVE
truffle salt, garlic aioli, fines herbes
AMBIENCE 4/5
Clean, huge viewing glass to see all the Porsche’s on the track.
PARKING 5/5
Easy free parking in the front of building. Once you walk in you can take the stairs or elevator to the second floor. Restaurant is on the second floor facing the track.

To celebrate our anniversary, we dined here and enjoyed the scenic view of the track from our window table. We both ordered burgers, which were tasty, but the bread was a bit crumbly. The service was top-notch, with friendly staff members who even surprised us with a slice of lemon cake to mark our anniversary. While the bread was a letdown, the overall experience was excellent.

This is a really cool experience. I have reservations prior to coming, but I didn’t know that you needed to book or make reservations to drive the cars around the track so that’s one thing we didn’t get a chance to do, but we got a chance to look at all of the vintage Porsches that they had in the showroom. We went upstairs and was seated. We got lunch, which was OK. The burger was pretty good. Put you in the mind of In-N-Out we got a seat next to the window so we were able to enjoy our meal and watch the cars go around the track. They have a outside patio area connected to the restaurant where you can go outside and look over at the track and you can also go outside towards the track from the downstairs area. Overall, this was an amazing experience and I definitely would recommend

This was my second visit to the restaurant, conveniently situated on the second floor, offering the unique experience of dining in elegance while watching Porsche test drives. The staff at the restaurant are exceptionally courteous, kind, and refined. The cuisine served here pairs wonderfully with alcohol, featuring richly flavored dishes. They also offer non-alcoholic cocktails for drivers, ensuring everyone’s needs are catered to. Given the exceptional setting and service, the prices are surprisingly reasonable.

In general pretty good. I got Jirodi Chicken, sauce was really good but chicken was dry and hard to chew( I’d change breast to boneless thighs). Cute butter and nice view

I’ve been wanting to go here with my hubby for more than a year now, and finally got the chance to go. The food was good. We came as a walk in on a Saturday (June 28) @12pm, and were seated within 10 minutes at a table (we told the front desk we were willing to wait until a table became available since we didn’t want to sit at the bar). Unfortunately we didn’t get window seats, but those definitely seem to be the best seats; if you plan on going in advance(with reservation), I recommend asking them for window seating… but even if you don’t get window seating, there’s a balcony you can go to after you’re done eating; it was really entertaining seeing the Porsches drive around the track, and some drivers even being confident enough to drift or do donuts lol. Our server was amazing. My hubby and I both got the Wagyu burger, and got the truffle topping on our fries, and he got a sweet tea— the total before the tip came out to be $125. Good food, and good atmosphere, I’ll be coming back for Valentine’s Day.
