    $330!

    Charged $330 for a deep cleaning, yet... The $330 top-tier "Extreme Detail" service is a joke. We tried to communicate with merchant but after many attempts, manager still avoided giving any concrete responses.

    When you pay 24$ for a full service wash, you would think you get a full service. You would think they dry and remove the bugs off the car since there wash is crap and doesnt remove anything from cars. You can tell the vacuum suck here too. Why should i pay 24$ for full service when you dont give that. Thats what my truck costs for a full service hand wash by my house in laguna hills and they actually do a good job. The top of truck is disgusting. Ill be disputing this charge with bank cause i have to come home and do there job for them

    Only one way in!

    I've been going to the service station every since it opened up almost 20 years ago. I've seen owners come and go with the car wash. The car wash is pretty awesome but the sprayers are so powerful it goes through my sunroof so I can't use it. The people that work here are very friendly. The only thing that they have done in the last few years is change the entrance into a one-way exit one-way entry only and it is horrible. If you come at peak traffic times it is actually dangerous trying to come in to the gas station because of the heavy traffic on Trabucco. I rarely come here anymore during peak hours. The location of the entrances are kind of in an awkward place and I'm sure that's why they made an entry and exit only places to try to improve traffic but a lot of people don't like it. The bathrooms inside are always super clean and if you need to pick up a greeting card you will find some true originals here. Sometimes I come here just to get a greeting card! They also have a pretty extensive next shop inside if you need something to drink or a munchy

    Where I keep the dollar they claimed that fell onto the floor and decided to keep until I came back and asked for it back. Ridiculous.

    I just went to get my car washed here because prices are great and they have always done a great job. However when I got my car back, I noticed my lucky dollar, that I have tucked behind a little Buddha on my dashboard was missing. Now this is a lucky dollar that a late aunt gave me when I got my car and has been behind that Buddha (which is glued down mind you) for the last 10 years. Through countless road trips, car washes, oil changes, and a handful of accidents, the Buddha nor dollar have moved or "fallen off." At first I was kind of bummed and was about to let it go because it was just a dollar, and clearly whoever took it needed it more than I did....but it's the principle that matters. They CLEARLY STOLE my dollar! That dollar means a lot more to me than its monetary value and whoever took it was just going to demean the value of it to me by spending it on a bag of chips or soda. So I went back to let them know that my dollar was missing and all the guys gathered around and one guy finally pulled it out of his pocket...still folded exactly how I had it. He tried lying and telling me that he found the dollar on the floor. So he found money on my floor and just keeps it instead of placing it on my dashboard or cup holder? I even went out of my way to buy something inside to give them a good tip. If they'll steal just a dollar, imagine what else they might steal. God forbid I accidentally left my iPod in my car, what would they say, "Oh, it was just on the floor." That doesn't make it okay to steal something. Especially since my dollar was NOT on the floor. I'm just so glad they gave it back, which does not justify anything.

    Very poorly laid out, hard to access. Too many trucks and delivery vans for the pump spacing. Will do what I can to never come back.

    My opinion changed of this car wash - it seems that they did made some changes and the wash does a pretty good job for $7. Would recommend.

Long enough that this place has seen me through at least five cars, which honestly feels personal. This isn't just where I get gas it's where entire chapters of my life have pulled up to pump 3. Different cars, same routine. The employees have watched my taste in vehicles evolve (and occasionally regress) and never once judged me. I've talked to every employee here. Not small talk real conversations. Life updates. "How's everything?" energy. This is the kind of place where, if I didn't show up for a few days, someone would absolutely notice and quietly wonder if I was okay or just cheating on them with another gas station. I get gas here. I wash my car here. Five stars because this place hasn't just fueled my cars it's quietly tracked my entire automotive journey. Cars came and went. Some broke down dramatically. This gas station stayed consistent. Highly recommend if you like familiarity, conversation, and being known enough that your absence would raise mild concern

    This review is just for the propane and the help that I got from Alejandro…read more This was my first time buying propane, so I didn't know the procedure or even how to approach it. I pull in and park next to the giant propane tank on site and walked into the gas station to ask for help. Alejandro was super kind and let me know to wait by the propane tank and he'll be out to assist me. He walked me through the process and explained how everything works. He was also kind enough to load my 54 lbs. tank full of propane into my car. I'm not sure if everyone is this kind here at this Chevron station, but Alejandro sure made my first experience a happy one. I was written up a receipt after Alejandro was done and paid inside the Chevron station. This whole process took 5 minutes or so and I was on my way. For $3.49 per gallon, this is the cheapest place I can find in South OC where you can get a refill.

    El Toro, Ca. My car…read moredoesn't run on gasoline but I come here often to get my propane tank filled. If you live in Laguna this is probably the closest and easiest place to get propane. I like that it's sold by the gallon and not a flat fee. I do believe there is a minimum charge however (Around $6.00). The service is quick, easy, and very friendly. Its not one of those places where they think they are doing you a great favor to fill your propane tank. Park near the big tank, put your tank on the shelf, go in and tell them you need propane. A guy will come right out and fill the tank, and give you a ticket. Take the ticket back inside and pay. Come back out, grab your tank and leave. Pretty simple.

I was trying to make things easier for the employees doing the final detailing. To be clear, there was nobody in line, nobody in the car wash, and I was parked off to the side where both kiosks were still fully accessible. The place was completely dead at the time. After I got back into my vehicle and pulled up to the kiosk to purchase my wash, an employee approached and asked if I needed help. I politely said no. He then sarcastically asked, "Do you know how to do it?" I replied, "Yeah, I've done this before." He then told me, "Next time park somewhere else so you're not inconveniencing everyone else." At that point, it was obvious he came over looking for a problem, especially considering there was literally no one waiting. I asked what his issue was, he said "I'm the nicest guy that works here.." the interaction ended with me telling him to have a nice f**ing day. Later, while my vehicle was being detailed, I looked for the employee because I wanted to ask his name, but I couldn't find him. I figured he was in the back, so I let it go then proceeded to wait for my vehicle to be done. A few minutes later, I saw him walking around the detail area, not in his original uniform, giving workers high fives like he was the coolest guy at the car wash. Before he walked inside, I asked him for his name, and he responded, "Don't worry about that." So whoever you are, congratulations on being the coolest guy at the car wash with the sarcastic attitude. Sincerely, The customer who tipped your hardworking coworkers $20 because they were actually respectful and professional.
