They are giving us the running around, not clear with the price, they say we will call you and never do and the day we expect a call, they never call us. Everything has been a mystery with these people regarding the price and dates of service and viewing of the body. This is my first time doing this and it has been a very bad experience with this funeral home. I honestly would not recommend this funeral home to anyone who wants everything to run smooth when it comes to funeral issues.

I could be mistaken but I was under the impression that I would be able to order death certificates through the mortuary and it turned out not to be the case.

The owner was just as amazing and supportive. Four months later, we sadly had to plan another service for my uncle, and once again, Karina went above and beyond to make everything perfect. I can't thank Mehl's Chapel enough for their kindness and care. Highly recommend them to anyone in need of funeral services.

I want to share how disappointed I am with this company after my mom passed away a few weeks ago…read more It took them quite a few phone calls for them to actually arrange plans for her cremation. In addition, we were promised that we could attend the cremation, and we would at least be notified at the moment that it was happening, and they stole that opportunity for me. We were waiting and waiting for them to call, so we finally called them and they told us that she was being cremated at that very moment. There are no words to describe the heartbreak that I went through. There was no formal apology from anybody there. I will never use their services again. They also have had the audacity to keep contacting me to leave a review for them. I should have been there at the moment that my mom was being cremated Which we clearly had asked for.

I'd recommend Alta Vista Mortuary to anyone in the Salinas area who needs mortuary services. The…read moreowner, Bill is extremely compassionate and the service is very speedy as well. I didn't have an appointment or call ahead and instead, walked right in when I unexpectedly needed a mortuary service. Bill met us at the door and after I explained the situation he welcomed us into his office and said he needed to make a quick call so he could accommodate us as a walk in. Moments later he joined us in his office and walked us through our options very calmly and showed deep empathy all the way through. Bill was knowledgeable, experienced, professional, and personable. The pricing was reasonable and at no time did I feel like I was being taken advantage of financially due to the vulnerable circumstances I found myself in. The death certificate and remains were ready within 3 business days which was greatly appreciated. This is the best mortuary my husband and I have both experienced and we made sure to express such to Bill as well. Thank you so much, Bill and Alta Vista you were extremely helpful and kind during a tough time.

He assisted my family with scheduling the rosary and mass, flowers, burial details etc. I really appreciated the details that he asked us about before and during the ceremonies that we were too flustered to consider but would have regretted forgetting about later. Phil was professional, patient and considerate with us during the entire emotional process and I highly recommend his business.

***Yelp Challenge 2016 19/100***…read more The customer service here is great. I met with the owner of this mortuary home and he helped me from start to finish. Before my dad passed, he mentioned that he prepaid for his cremation. I never asked him for details because I thought he was superman and would live forever. On November 24th my world was crushed. The cops who were sent to my dads house to do a welfare check found my dad in his home. He had been deceased for awhile. I live in Las Vegas and so as soon as I got there, I knew my dad would be there. The funeral home owner told me of the different options and he even helped me sort out the issue with Trident Society. They didn't cover anything by the way. It's a huge ripoff. ANYWAYS... He gave me all the options and was super professional and compassionate about everything. He made the time to talk to me and set everything up for my dads service. My dad was an army veteran and Mr. Woodyard handled all of those arrangements. If you live in that town, you guys have a great guy to assist with your loved one. Thank you Mr. Woodyard.
