The Starlite Drive-in was operated by United Artists Theatres. There was also a sister drive-in located in Palo Alto known as the Palo Alto Drive-in Theatre, which was located near Bayshore Freeway (101).

There are 2 pictures at http://www.cinematour.com/tour/us/28503.html
based off of those, the Drive-In was located at approximately 150 Harbor Boulevard, Belmont, CA 94002-4016. Chris’s New Harbor Bar‎ is at this address. The area, now filled with warehouses and storage units, is no longer recognizable as a former Drive-In.

The correct address of this long gone drive in at the Cinematour link provided by Element1604 is 300 Harbor Blvd. It was near the intersection of Harbor and Industrial Rd.

Same drive-in? Boxoffice, Aug. 23, 1947: “BURLINGAME, CALIF. – Robert L. Lippert added another house to his 36-theatre chain August 6 when he acquired the new Belmont Drive-In near this city. Lippert will take over operation immediately and plans a big opening August 25. The Belmont parks 700 cars.”
