Mechanic is extremely helpful and really knowledgeable. Backstory: My dad and his gf gave me a nice older car and told me to check the oil levels every now and then and add oil if it's low. I don't know anything about checking oil levels or adding oil. But somehow my dad thought I knew how. So I went to the closest auto shop and the mechanic taught me how to! He was soo nice. Thank you Mr.Mechanic. He makes a great teacher. Patient and knowledgeable! read more

I've had good experiences here, both buying gas and having my car repaired. The gas prices aren't the cheapest in the city, but they're better than those of the branded stations closer to Park Presidio Boulevard. Also, if you live this far out in the Richmond, it's nice to have a station with a mechanic nearby. I've had a battery installed here and something else done. (Sorry, I don't remember what it was.) The mechanic is nice, although don't expect to get your car back quickly; it's just him. He will give you an accurate time and price estimate, though. I love the sign that says something like CASH KEEPS GAS PRICES LOW. I love it because I refuse to be guilt-tripped into paying with cash, so I always pay with a credit card. If the place is really that concerned about the credit-card fees, it should charge less per gallon for people paying with cash. Me, I'll keep using my card and wondering how much money they spent on having the vinyl sign printed. read more

This place is now a 76. We live nearby and its become a real eye sore. They are currently installing a massive 76 sign, THANK THE LORD its not a giant ball. its just a giant ball sign. its still the same people but i guess its 76 branded now. so so so so so ugly. shame. the 1 star is for 76. golden gate gasoline would have gotten at least a 3. service wise I've only ever bought gas or chocolate from there and both were painless. read more

Scenario... Man walks in to purchase gas in cash. Woman is in line ahead of man. Woman pays with a crisp $50 bill. Cashier immediate places in drawer. Man walks up to cashier and pays $40 with (2) $20 bills. Cashier immediately holds up bills to light to authenticate with his 5" lens glasses. #BuyingGasWhileColored #EvenInSF read more

Hmmmmm....this is a 76 Station, but I guess it's also called Golden Gate Gasoline? Regardless, the gas is pricey (though maybe not for SF?). I should have filled up in Santa Cruz for $3.68/gallon instead of the $3.94 I paid here. Oh well. It's the only gas I really saw coming up the 1 past Ocean Beach and Sutro Baths. It works, though I'm still not happy about the price. I'll just tell myself that since it's 76 gas it will last me longer...and cry into my pillow at night... read more

Received great service for car issues or tune ups with short wait times. Very professional and knowledgeable. Highly recommended. Friendly staff at the gas station as well. Great neighborhood gem. read more

The girl working behind the counter in the little store part was super, amazingly friendly. That's the only reason I'm writing this review, seriously. She could not have been nicer, and it seemed genuine, which isn't that easy to find! read more

This is the best gas station and mechanic in the world!! I work at the VA hospital, I am a nurse, for over 30 years. I trust them with my life not just my car. I have asthma so they know smelling gas is difficult for me. They always rush to pump. All my car repairs are reasonable and expert. You will never regret doing business here. read more

Terrible service... The pump was broken, it would tell me to begin fueling but when I squeezed the lever no gas came out, the cashier came out and did nothing. He cancelled my transaction three time and told me to try again. He also told me that I'm "pumping gas wrong". How in the world do you pump gas wrong?!?! Don't recommend it, 76 gas isn't even worth the trouble anyways. read more

Tha (tah) is the mechanic here - a great guy, works hard, is always done when he says he will be done, fair prices, always energetic and helpful. His assistant is friendly but not that fluent in English. Tha is one of the best mechanics I have ever found. read more

The owner of this place is unbelievably rude. I told him his pump wasn't working and he shoved the thing in my face. Not worth the hassle of the owner. read more

I have been coming to this place to get my used cars fixed for years. The work is always done right and the mechanic (Tamm) has never missed the mark. He tries to be accurate, but you need to give him time to do his thing. Case in point - in October 2012, my 2004 Volvo slipped a timing chain and had to be towed to his garage. I knew the dealer would be too expensive and would try to sell me a new engine or heads. Initially, the mechanic at this service station thought things would be bad, possible due to bent lifters, etc. However, in the end, he was able to fix it for only a few hundred bucks. But, it took a couple of months to get the job done. This was a second car for me, so I told him to take his time and he did. Bottom line, many small shops would not have wanted to work on the car due to the complex twin-turbo transverse engine, or would have sold me a new easy to swap out (but expensive) engine as a quick fix. Instead, this mechanic took his time and did the job right and cheap. A rare find in this day and age. read more
