Super awesome prices. Extremely fast. Didn't have to wait, didn't have to make an appointment. I was referred by the Model Garage and they definitely did me a favor by telling me of this place.

One of the best experiences Ive had smoging a vehicle, very curtious and efficient. Great coupon deals out there too!Update; the coupon deals aren't around anymore, but you can still expect their prices to be lower than the average smog shop.I always call before going there for smog and they always give me a good price!Their smog techs are awesome to deal with, low stress, experienced, and helpful.

Wow. What an awesome experience. I was a little worried when I found out they didn't take appointments. No worries. Handled everything so well and quickly. And even brought a chair outside for me during the short wait. (He saw my cane. I didn't need to ask.). And I used a coupon and only paid $28.

Just paid $40 for both smog check and mailed certification to DMV. Great price, well organized place and very friendly service. Love seeing female owned businesses

Pros:Quiet area, easy to get services and friendly staff.Cons:Confusing pricing. Went to get smog check for 2005 car, was quoted $60...so I showed the website and the price was quickly dropped to $40. Car failed smog because o2 sensors were not ready. Had to pay $40 again. So, no free retest :( within specified time mentioned on the receipt.Service: Smog certification

Bait and switch. Show up with a printed copy of an early bird smog check coupon printed from their web site and be prepared to be told that they no longer accept the coupon. If you suggest that perhaps they shouldn't have a coupon on their web site that they don't honor, you'll be told: "tell the boss." Poor way to do business.Service: Smog certificationService: Smog certification

Great, efficient service. I arrived and had my car checked and on my way within 7-10 minutes. Quick, simple and the possibly Hispanic younger gentleman who was the only one there working at the Time was very courteous and professional. Best price around too. Will definitely come back next time I need smog done again

The website says the price for a smog test and certification is $28 but when I went there, they quoted $58. I paid because I didn't have time to search for another place (and I assumed that I read the website wrong for some reason).My husband called the next day to complain. Apparently I was supposed to tell the guy that the price is too high and ask for a different price (or say that I saw something different on the website) instead of expecting to be treated honestly.If you choose to go to this place be prepared to negotiate the price because they're going to charge you double if you don't.Service: Smog certification

NOT AN HONEST BUSINESS, BEWARE!!! Loose money and small items were taken from my car while getting smog checked at this location MULTIPLE TIMES. Shame on me for going back. Keep an eye on your belongings when they check your car. Most smog places aren't great, but this one is BAD.

I've been here a couple of times and they provide a speedy and efficient service. You're in and out in no time, they've got it down to a science. They have a good Yelp deal for $29.95. They have also started to charge a $5 fee for credit cards so bring cash.

I bought a Groupon and used it for my Toyota Corolla. The service was quick, less than 15 minutes. Note for Groupon, I did not realize I need to pay additional $10, on top of the $8.25 certificate, due to "star directed vehicle"! As a result, I did not save much for the purchase of Groupon. The mechanic said I should call next time and could get a better deal.Service: Smog certification

I took the little Cookevil there for the lad bi yearly smog check. I was in and out in 10 minutes. Very friendly service and competitive pricing. Highly recommended.

Brought my civic with an engine swap and had a really great experience here. Knowledgable, experienced, and great communication throughout the process. You want a smog technician who understands the process and can do the work with minimal hiccups. Highly recommend even if it costs a little bit extra to do the test every two years.

Normally no waiting. Always polite and give good advice when appropriate. Lower price if you call first and ask what their cash price is or use a Groupon.

Quick and painless. Great price. The gentlemen running the smog shop was friendly and helpful. He even pointed out a recall part on my car that I might want to contact my dealer about. I will definitely come back here next time I need to smog.

Bad customer service. Pricing is dependable on many things. Be careful. Not recommend it

This is solely about professionalism and customer service which this place has none of. If you take your car here don't expect any friendly or fast service.You may have to wait 5 mins because the postioning of the entrance to the shop and pump 5 is unfortunate. The mechanic there, younger blonde guy, has known to be extremely rude to customers and patrons at this gas station.His unprofessionalism, rude, arrogant attitude may create a delay in getting your car serviced.People who quickly stop in to pump gas in front of his poorly placed shop are treated very disrespectfully.

Always greedy. Showed them my $24 coupon, she asked for $48 BECAUSE the car is more than 10 years old, or have more cylinder, then they want cash. Greedy greedyService: Smog certificationService: Smog certification

Pricing is not transparent and seems to be shady. Work done is not explicitly clear so make sure to check and ask before going

Super fast and efficient but staff could be a little more friendly. Very blunt and cold mannered person was focused on the task and didn t give anything else.
