The others are in Seal Beach, Sunset Beach, and Newport Beach; but this new locale represents the first Woody's in a city that doesn't have the word “Beach” in it (Not that there's anything remarkable about that…just thought it was interesting).
If you've never been to the others, the menu will stay faithful to its proven formula of American diner classics, with a focus on staples like burgers, hot dogs, breakfast all day, and meatloaf for dinner, all served with a 50s surf theming, tabletop jukeboxes, and probably pictures of actual woodies.
Oh…just so that there's no misunderstanding for those of a certain age: “woodies” is what they used to call cars with wood-side panels. Look it up!
