I took the wife and daughter(23) to see Raya. It was the daughter’s first time at the drive in. We had a blast.

Grand opening was July 10, 1964 with “The Carpetbaggers”, starring George Peppard, Alan Ladd and Carrol Baker…followed by Jerry Lewis' “The Patsy”

This drive-in is slated to convert to digital projection in 2013.

I go here as often as I can convince the wife. Worked ticket booth a few times in the early nineties. Good times.

Very nice drive-in with THE BEST CARNE ASADA tacos/burritos on the planet! Get here early – the Carne Asada lines can be super long…long enough to make you miss part of your movie.

The only drawback about coming here is the bottlenecked portions of the 91 Freeway (between Yorba Linda and Corona) where traffic comes to a grinding halt. If it wasn’t for that, I’d come here more often.
