Today I found this place after being asked to leave Center hardware because I had my mountain ebike in the store. Which is fine it's his store his rules. Vince at M hardware allowed me in and personally cut and fit a small screw for my bike helmet. In this current time of social disruption and COVID some folks are not so kind. Vince if you see this again I really appreciate your assistance This is definitely an Asian friendly business. Please do support this store. read more

The best! Hands down the most knowledgeable and prices were reasonable no more than Amazon for mosquito killing spray.

Extremely friendly, professional, and helpful; truly represents all the goodness of local store and mostly prices are comparable to big box players Recommended! read more

Excellent, family owned hardware store. They go out of their way to help you no matter how small your problem is.

This place is the best! Old school hardware store that has everything you need. The owner is very helpful and the service wonderful.

Fantastic, local hardware store. I'm so grateful for them! It's small but has almost everything I need and they are so friendly. I'm pleased, during the covid times, that they're always wearing a mask and so are customers, and they have hand sanitizer at the counter. They have all the hardware stuff you expect, can also cut keys, and have cleaning supplies and some office supplies. I try to patronize them for anything in their domain. I hope they never close! read more

I am surprised at all the 5 star review it only gets 3 from me.the last 2 times I went in there it did not have what I wanted.and these things are what every hardware store should carry I bet he is asked every day for them They have been there 30 years so should be more knowledgeable about what they have in stock read more

If I could give this place six stars I gladly would. You can't find hardware stores like this anymore! Old world knowledge and advice on just about how to fix anything! Need one washer or a nut and bolt. Easy. You don't have to buy the whole package that you'll put in a drawer and never use. They seem to have everything you need. In and out quick! Help. Advice. Knowledge. Service. And free life wisdom offered only. One caveat! Don't be on your phone when it's our turn. They have big hammers! read more

Super awesome native SF folk who are helpful and nice. Victor helped me. And the prices are comparable to the bigger retailers.

This place is great. Everyone is super friendly, helpful, and knows their stuff... don't know how to fix that leaky toilet? Just ask. They have everything a neighborhood hardware store should have... paint, hammers, nails, nuts-n-bolts, etc, etc, etc... they even make keys in and can re-key your locks... If your house is ~100 years old like mine, they have all of the ye olde hardware stuff to keep you place held together... Heck, you can even buy those old galvanized trash cans and wash basins like grandma used to have... Check it out. Friendly, knowledgeable, and family run... a true piece if SF history. Only complaint? M-F 8am - 5pm... Please give some weekend hours, like Sat 12-4pm so I don't have to go to Home Depot for the 1/4" drill bit I needed for my weekend project. read more

This place is a small, family-owned hardware store. They have keys and lock services, shower, gardening, shelf, cleaning, and some light products. They were really nice to help me find doweling pins for my shelf that lacked them. I got the wrong size the first time, and they didn't have any smaller ones but they let me return them even after they were opened... AND THEN the guy was like we have metal ones if you want. What a savior! I was amazed at their helpfulness! I'm glad the son knows his family store! They were in the back somewhere, and went to get them. He let me trade them in and they were only $1 or so more. Cheap, quality products and they really need all the help and business they can get. Support them! read more

Needed a custom screw and other parts to repair may garage door. They spent a few minutes to find the right parts for me. At that point, some other customers were waiting. Rather than looking up all the parts' cost, charged me only $1 - way less than a big box store would charge. Great to still have neighborhood stores that provide excellent service! read more

Great old school hardware store with everything you need other than lumber or bulk materials. Great knowledgeable guys and very helpful.

I love this place. My husband and I bought our first home in Bayview about 6 months ago. It is a lovely old Edwardian place with tons charm...but it's a fixer-uper...so we often need materials of the hardware store nature. I stumbled upon Mazzei & Sons one day and have been a loyal customer ever since...my husband loves it too. Ed and Vince, the owners, are super helpful, friendly, and remember my name every time I stop by. They have all the stuff that a Lowes or Home Depot has (except for lumber and such) and sometimes their prices are the lowest...even lower than Lowes or Home Depot. True story. And if there is something that you need that they don't have in the store, I'm sure they would order it for you and give a fair price as well. This is my favorite hardware store in all of San Francisco...it has been family owned for many generations and still is...So come on out and support this local business. Keep San Francisco from becoming one giant strip mall of chain-stores that have none of the charm, wonderful customer service, community connection, and top- of- the- line products that Mazzei and Sons' has. read more

I agree with everything that has been said. This is a gem in the city. Ed and Vince were warm and welcoming the moment I walked into the store. I came in to get some keys cut and instantly realized that I was in a store with a lot of history and character. I also regretted all my purchases at Lowes with sales people who didn't have a tenth of the expertise of Ed and Vince. G Mazzei and Sons also had better prices and could quickly order anything they did not have in stock. Please support this local and independent family owned business! read more

I just went in to get keys cut but it was a quick and very pleasant experience. I talked with the owner about how the store has been in his family for three generations. I really enjoyed the family feel of the place. read more

Called looking for galvanized garbage cans & hit pay dirt. Great store, excellent owner & the best range of galvanized cans in SF. Now I can hardly wait until something breaks or I take on another home improvement task. Actually, I could use a good flashlight. Yeah, I get to go back! read more

This place is our favorite neighborhood hardware store. Vince is awesome...he is helpful, friendly, and professional. Whenever we need to complete a DIY home repair (or have questions about home repair) we stop by G Mazzei & Son's hardware and always are able to find what we need. I love that this store has been in Bayview through many decades and that it is a family-owned place. I would give this shop and it's staff six stars if I could...it is simply the very best!! read more

Amazing customer service! They're so knowledgeable and helpful here. Love the fact that this is a family owned store that has been around for over 75 years. Do yourself a favor and shop here instead of Lowes; prices are equivalent and it's a hundred times more pleasant. read more

Without a doubt the best hardware store in SF! The selection is wide and the service is fantastic! The brothers who run the place now both used to work in construction and when they help customers they give the absolute best advise (I used to work as a maintenance manager for a facility in SF so I'm pretty up on my hardware). I've seen these guys send customers off with two or three different similar items, telling them "one of these is the right size, just bring the other two back" - that is customer service! They make keys, glaze windows, cut pipe, etc. I saw them pull apart a blender for a lady and replace the switch and they just charged her for the $1.50 switch! There is no end to the good things I can say about this store. The guys are jovial, kind and really care about the customers. The selection of hardware is complete. The service can't be matched. read more

Ed & Vince have been incredibly helpful ever since I opened my nearby business. They always make time for me, no matter how small my purchase that day, and they are very good about making exchanges when I screw up and get the wrong thing. BTW, if you are looking to recycle the rubber band that comes around your mail, they might be able to use them as an environmentally friendly way of packing things for customers! read more

This is a hidden gem. I lived in Bayview for almost a year before I even knew it existed. The guys inside are genuinely friendly and eager to get your problem fixed. They're fully stocked and fully aim to please. Don't bother driving over the hill to Ace's or the dreaded Home Depot; Mazzei's has it all. read more

These guys are awesome. I went in there with a plumbing issue four different times today and each time they were extremely helpful in explaining what to do. They didn't seem annoyed at all, but rather genuinely desiring to help. They don't just sell stuff, they help you as a whole. read more

This is the kind of store you wish all stores were like: large selection, well laid out, with good prices and a really knowledgeable, friendly staff. read more

A great hardware store. Good selection and great person.

Mazzei saves you money and time! Friendly, local, professional level advice is just steps from the front door and a huge, make-sense selection is all in arms reach. Great service for window glass and locks. read more
