so shiny even in the shade
Jennie P.

Ed and his team put so much time, effort, attention, and detail into my car! I drive a normal commuter car so it's not anything luxury but they treat it like it is. Such impressive detailing even my super picky Vietnamese dad is very impressed! I get a Wash & Wax every 2 months and a full detail every 6-8 months to maintain my car. I thought they had closed but they're actually at a new location, and I'm so happy to see them (and the shop cat, Axle) again. New location appointments can be booked online, I didn't read and walked in like usual since the old location took walk ins but Ed was still able to squeeze me in! Worth every penny, and I'm more than happy to leave a generous tip every time with the quality of work and professionalism and warmth of this small business. 10/10, 5 stars, will be back forever!

This place is the best! Ed was so nice and professional and made my car sparkle and shine. 10/10 would recommend
Shantel S.

Amazing! Thank you Ed for providing saucy a great service and making my car sparkle insider and out

Waiting area

Called for a walk-in in an hour and they said it's available. Went there, got my car into wash in a sec. Very very time efficient. The washing and waxing were done in about an hour! Faster than I thought. Waiting room has a cute little cat. The cat is very friendly and affectionate!!! It made my waiting time very enjoyable!!! The price is very reasonable for the high quality of their wash. My car looks clean as new! Definitely gonna come back for the cat & car wash!

Damage to my mirrors after coming here
Vivienne T.

Do not come here. they washed my car and we got home I noticed this huge scratch on my front right mirror. One, that shouldn't have happened to begin with but even so was able to wipe away most of it. There are two parts now though that were deep and went through the paint into the metal. Those remain. absolutely unacceptable. I reached out to Ed who told me to send pictures. I did, he said "Hi looks like a scratch whit a wall.. our walls don't have this colors.. im checking my camera's if something happened here.." This was not done by me - if was there before the wash it wouldn't have been that fresh. We definitely did not hit a freaking wall on the way home from the car wash. I will be going in tomorrow to see what he can do. If he takes accountability or denies it, that will really determine how their business is.I will update the review after. No one should go to car wash just for it to come back damaged?? Update: went in and he basically said it was impossible that it occurred there. You're telling me there's 20 people that work for you and it's impossible one of them messed up? Yeah don't come here. Especially if you have a nice car. Wouldn't want your paint job to be ruined.

Ed, Thanks to your well trained crew for the beautiful detail job - Well done! I'm not new to detail, having held a summer lot boy job for 3 summers at a Beverly Hills Porsche/Audi/Lamborghini/Ferrari dealer. Your guys had no misses, which is pretty unusual!

I recently received my parents old Honda, incredibly dirty from years of sitting unused. I stopped by Ed's detail this morning right when it opened. Amazing service and customer service! Even without an appointment, needing a full interior/exterior detail, I left my car, and 5 hours later- wow!! Looks brand new. Well worth the fair cost of $165 and I will definitely be a returning customer.

Maintenance wash and headlight restoration!
Max N.

I've gone to so many different car washes and detailing places over the years. Even did it myself. I've finally found my go to place. Best bang for the buck! Ed and his team are very reliable. I've gone twice, one during the week day and one on a Saturday. Free Wi-Fi if you need to get work done while waiting. My car comes out looking brand new. I'm a very OCD and a perfectionist. This place passes my test. I even did a headlight restoration! Worth the wait! I'll be coming back each month! 5 stars for everything!

AWESOME place off the beaten path to get your car wash!! Yes it's behind a warehouse building, not visible from the street For just $18 they do a thorough hand car wash including vacuuming (shampooing of the carpets used to be included too but now it's extra) Its a bit far for me but I'll return because i am very pleased with their work NOTE: Free wifi while you wait! They now have an electronic stamp card so you can get rewards as you build visits

So Fresh and so Clean .!.! Thanks Ed's Detail for keeping my truck looking Great.!

See all

This is my second review for Vic and his team. / I previously had my girlfriend's car detailed by…read morethem - and very, very, thankfully entered this biz into my contacts - plus made notes to always use them for their services. I know that thousands of happy customers have already written great things about Unique Car Wash & Auto Detailing, but I'm going to add more accolades, once again, anyways. So very glad that I found Vic and his team. (Fellow Yelpers are very correct in their recommendations) This gentleman, and his crew, take their business seriously. He loves his job and business - and is absolutely meticulous about the details. He's the "can do" man. You need not waste time looking elsewhere. If you want it done right the first time - you come here. My car hadn't seen a vacuum or even been wiped down in 5-years - and everything looked like new when I picked up my vehicle. I will be bringing my car to him more often. Complete detail - is the way to go! Thanks Vic!

Initially went because I wanted the interior deep cleaned but exterior…read morejust a standard wash, but I got upsold to do a full interior and exterior wash + detail for $185, then was provided a discount on this price. Picked up the car and didn't think anything of it, didn't inspect the paint too closely because I assumed by the high reviews I'd be fine and taken care of. After going to fill gas at Costco the next day, under their great lighting, I noticed that my paint had swirls in it. Then I opened the gas cap and saw layer of dirt on the cap area. I've only had the car washed twice in its life (new car) and it was both done by Unique Car Wash, so there's no way it was done elsewhere, and even if it was, a wax should have taken care of the swirls by filling the scratches. This is probably the result of the place not doing a proper 2 step wash, using dirty microfiber towels and not even waxing the car. Other places offered the same service for $150 and offer claybar, wax, and other services. So I paid for a high end service, received a mediocre interior and exterior cleaning, and swirls in my paint. Don't recommend going here if you actually care about your cars paint, and if you want quality work done for a good price. Might as well take it to a drive through wash.

After that, Alex and his team installed PPF on my carbon fiber hood and roof, and the results came out flawless. The film is laid perfectly with clean edges, no bubbles, and great attention to detail -- especially important on carbon fiber where imperfections show easily. Alex and his team was professional, knowledgeable, and took the time to do the job right instead of rushing it. As a fellow car enthusiast, Alex understands how important the details are and treats your car like it's his own. Communication was solid throughout the process, and you can tell they genuinely care about the quality of their work. If you're looking for vinyl removal, PPF, or paint protection work done correctly the first time, I highly recommend Rhino Films! I'll definitely be back for future projects.

UPDATE: Updating my review since the business owner…read moreobviously likes to respond to all his negative reviews to try and control the narrative - saying customers are lying, leaving false reviews, or weren't even customers to begin with. To start, the business owner is saying I lied about my experience and I was "belligerent" over them being late. He edited his response to me four different times (see emails). To address his original comments: 1.) "you provided two different numbers" -- this information is correct, however, the business owner ONLY used the primary one (just for clarification) and never contacted the other number throughout this experience. 2.) "over an hour before arrival, we informed you our technician would be running late" -- I wasn't contacted by anyone from this company until *I* reached out first, by this time, the technician was already late by 10 minutes. 3.) "we completed your full service including the engine bay detail, which we have clear photo evidence of" -- business owner offered free wash, wax, and engine bay cleaning due to being late - the wax was not done, or done poorly, and the engine bay was not cleaned, we were picking leaves out of it and its dusty, as you can see in the picture. 4.) "after the job was finished, we spoke directly" -- no? We didn't speak directly. I spoke to your technician and thanked him for his work and tipped him - but since he showed up late, we were pressed on time and needed to be on our way and didn't check the car throughly. 5.) "I still gave you a courtesy discount due to the delay" -- for clarification, no discount was given on the initial cost of the Interior Only detail. Only the offer of free services that were not completed, other than the wash. 6.) "you were belligerent over us arriving 30 minutes late, even though we had already let you know in advance that we were running behind and confirmed before booking that you had the entire day open." -- apparently, a customer being short and annoyed that your technician was running late with no notice isn't allowed lmao. If a woman says "hi." or "no, I don't want to cancel" is considered "belligerent", I suppose that's a whole other issue you have. Again, I wasn't told in advance that your technician would be late, and I never once said I had the entire day open. 7.) "Throughout the entire process, your behavior toward our team was distasteful and confrontational." -- when your technician arrived, I said hello, and politely asked him to move his car from blocking the driveway. That was the only interaction I had with him, aside from tipping him. We let him do his work and we sat in front of the house in the sun for about 20 minutes, on our property, several feet away from him. Overall, this company lacks professionalism and can't admit to being wrong. Cya
