The approximately 1.119 acre site will include a 3,890 square foot restaurant with indoor seating for 84 guests, outdoor seating for 44 guests, a 61-space parking lot and a drive-thru lane with a 26-car capacity. Store hours will be 10:30am to 1:00am Sunday through Thursday, and 10:30am to 1:30am Friday and Saturday. The site will be nicely landscaped and meticulously maintained.
Since 1948, In-N-Out has maintained a simple philosophy – serve only the highest-quality food, prepare it in a clean and sparkling environment, and serve it in a warm and friendly manner. We have built a reputation for fresh, made-to-order foods prepared and served by friendly, well-trained Associates.

- High-quality, well-paying jobs, and affordable, freshly cooked food
- A Youth Awards program and donation opportunities for local schools in all communities we serve
- Local residents, who are also supportive In-N-Out customers, will be able to visit the restaurant near their homes
- Strong infusion of sales tax revenue to Culver City.
- High-quality design and materials and sensitive landscape that will enhance the surrounding area
- The HIS EYES™ Foundation was founded in 2025 by Sean Ellingson and Lynsi Snyder-Ellingson to honor the life and legacy of Evan Ellingson, who deeply believed that we should see every person through God’s eyes. After his own personal journey with homelessness, Evan devoted his time and resources to serving others. The HIS EYES Foundation is dedicated to bringing hope, immediate support, and sustainable solutions to those experiencing homelessness. The Foundation provides funds to carefully vetted organizations that offer immediate care, essential resources, and community, directly impacting the areas served by In-N-Out Burger®. In-N-Out Burger covers all associated costs with the HIS EYES Foundation, ensuring that 100% of every dollar raised goes to organizations that provide hope, immediate support, and sustainable solutions to those experiencing homelessness. Evan’s life continues to inspire us to see beyond circumstances and to walk in love and faith. Together, through HIS EYES, we can bring hope to those experiencing homelessness.

Q: People have said In-N-Out is a good company. What are the facts?
A: Founded in 1948 by a World War II veteran and his wife who used GI Bill money to open the first restaurant, the company is still privately owned and is now run by the granddaughter of the original founders. The company consistently rates high in “Best Places to Work” and “Highest Rated CEOs” in national recruiting website, Glassdoor’s Employee Choice Awards. The company provides Associates a generous benefits package, a free meal for every shift worked, and some of the highest-starting wages in the quick-service sector, and the company culture supports promotion from within.
Q: Will there be late-night noise given the long hours and deliveries?
A: The In-N-Out operation is not noisy, particularly in comparison to the ambient street noise in the general area.
Q: Why does the store need to be open so late?
A: In-N-Out stores maintain consistent hours company-wide. We aim to serve the needs of our varying customers. For example, we provide discounted meals to police officers, who, along with other essential service workers, often work long shifts and late-night hours. This allows us to provide a convenient, high-quality, freshly made meal or coffee for vital workers during their unusual schedules. Other late-night workers who could benefit from high-quality, freshly made food late at night include hospitality workers, healthcare workers, other first responders, and more.
Q: Will there be enough parking?
A: Yes. The site is designed with 61 parking spaces.
