    Smog check super quick. Smog check $40. By STAR Certified $50 as quoted on the phone. But please call so there is no misunderstanding. Phillip the owner is easy going, not sure what other were saying here. Just get that certificate done and go home. It's the one right next to Wiener schnitzel on Garvey. From now on I'm coming here! I was done in 10mins (first time smog check)

    Listen "BUDDY" I live walking distance from this shop, I have the RIGHT shop.

    Leaving another bad review because somone who works or owns this place, comment on my last review and told me "Relax buddy, you got the wrong shop" clearly doesn't want to own up to the crappy customer service I got. I live literally around the corner, I see this shop every single day , I got the RIGHT shop buddy! Instead of owning up, he puts the blame on another shop down the street! Wow that's crazy anything to make yourself look good huh? And bring down someone else's business, maybe I should've went there instead, Truth hurts and this will be on Yelp forever sorry BUDDY! I'll stop by again if you'd like me to show you I have the right shop.

    If you're cool, he's cool. And will wheel with ya.

    Phil, is the shit. Knows his shit. If you not a bum, he will ask you you wana grab lunch together from Savoy! Also Cali2a is a dweeb and his uncle probably touches him at night. Don't be like Cali2a.

    If your car is old, they don't want to do it. They just want the easy money and easy job. That's bad service.

    Overall Experience I've been to this place twice for smog…read morecheck services on two different vehicles -- once in March and again in May. Both times, everything was resolved the same day. From the first interaction to the final paperwork, the experience was consistently smooth and professional. Customer Service March 2026 - I originally called around to several smog check locations. Some offered slightly cheaper pricing for my older vehicle, but the reviews here stood out to me. When I called regarding my 1999 Infiniti G20, Vic answered the phone, provided me with a quote, and was respectful, patient, and professional throughout the conversation. The reviews about him were accurate. Vic is chill, professional, and easy to talk to. After both my most visits for service, he will definitely be my go-to person moving forward. Why My Most Recent Visit Stood Out On May 16th around 12:20 PM, I attempted to pay my vehicle registration at AAA in Alhambra and realized I needed a smog test first. I called Vic around 12:30 PM, fully expecting to schedule something later in the week since he closes at 1 PM. He asked where I was, and since I was about 2 miles away, we both agreed it would probably take 15-20 minutes to get there, leaving only around 10-15 minutes before closing. Despite that, he respectfully told me to come down because he could still get it done. When I arrived, both Vic and his colleague assisted me and another customer at the same time while still keeping everything organized and professional. He completed the smog test quickly and efficiently, and the pricing was fair. Honestly, he saved me from having to take another day to handle the smog test which would take time and gas, and that level of customer service really stood out. Shop & Waiting Area Compared to many smog stations, the overall property is shared with several neighboring shops. However, Vic's specific area had enough clearance and space for vehicles to park, wait, and get tested comfortably without worrying about maneuvering through tight spots or risking scratches on other vehicles. The lounge area itself is small, but it's indoors and cool, which is especially appreciated with summer approaching. I also liked that the pricing was clearly posted and broken down by vehicle year/type, making everything straightforward and transparent. Extra Touches One thing that genuinely surprised me was that he polishes customers' headlights after the service. Whether or not it completely restores them, it's still a thoughtful and unique extra touch that most places do not offer. Final Thoughts Overall, I would definitely recommend this place to anyone looking for honest, efficient, and professional smog check service. Vic and his team made both experiences stress-free, and great customer service like that is hard to find nowadays.

    Great man, great cat, great service…read more Vic handled a morning barrage of smog checks quite professionally with the minimal amount of lot size he has -- Also remembered me after my first visit 5yrs ago. Got to see Maiden this time!
