Found Dara a couple years ago and he is simple the best. Honest reasonable and if he's not to busy, he will try to look at your car right away. Other mechanics I'd have to make an appointment just for them to look at it. Highly recommend!!

This place is a personal preferences for any car issues of mines. The worst part of this place is parking, you may need to end up double parking. The staff here are nice and are willing to explain the promblem and the solution they are gonna do. For entertainment their is a tv and aquarium. The tv has hulu and youtube. Their is a restroom but it is not the cleanest bathroom but it is good enough. This place has beverage for sale but not always. Also has a outlet for charging phones or laptop and a ATM inside. The boss and staff of course have their ups and down but the general vibe in this place is a good one even when it is busy. Please make sure to call ahead to see if they can fix the issue that you have with your vehicle and be understanding that not all issues can be diagnosed with ju

All my life I've heard that auto repair shops in the US are very expensive. I've lived in the US for about 15 years, and now I had to take my car to one of these mechanics. And this shop was the worst. They charged me a price that I practically told the mechanic myself, $1,000. I don't recommend it because of its lack of professionalism and communication... They're only good for inspection purposes. But I personally don't recommend it for car repairs.
