I got a smog check. The guy was pretty fast so it didn't take long. The pricing was good as well.

Been going to this place for a number of years. He's pretty fast and I like it. He's got a nice fish tank in his shop.

Been coming for the past few years, and it never disappoints; the price has never changed, which, in my opinion, is a major green flag--$ 55 for a smog check, which I needed for my vehicle registration renewal. I got lucky and was the only one there right before closing, and it only took 10 minutes! He has a mini waiting area of maybe three chairs, but by the time I sat down and got comfortable, he was already done! Would come again! read more

My son recommended this place to me and now the only place I'll go. Took my FIL's truck there and my wife's car. Even sent my ex there. Really fast, efficient and reasonably priced. read more

Realized at last minute that I needed a Star location. Searched here on Yelp and saw these guys were right around the corner from my office. Went right in and asked if they can help me asked what kind of car and told me where to park right in front. Took maybe 10 minutes to get it all done. Nice guy and yes he has a Koi tank. Recommend him highly. read more

I got my vehicle smogged here and everything went smooth. The gentlemen was nice and attended me quickly. $55 for a regular smog, and $65 for a Star smog. read more

Quick cheap. Not much else to ask for. Would recommend to anyone. Came around a week day and they didn't seem too busy.

This place seems shady as hell. There's a large tub of koi fish in the garage for some reason. The guy running this place (Harry) may seem like a dick when you first meet him, but you discover that he's actually a really cool dude after you start chatting with him a bit. He works pretty fast. $55 out the door for a smog check, 1 free retest. Unlike some other smog check facilities, this place has the capability of testing 1999 and older vehicles (which is great because those are the only kind of vehicles I own). I failed my 1st smog check here (incomplete OBD2 catalyst monitor). As advertised, I got a free retest, and passed that time around. My Marxist Overlords in Sacramento will be most pleased. There are 4 comfortable seats to sit on while waiting for the test to complete. If there's a line ahead of you during your visit, I would like to point out that Ajisen is conveniently across the street (should you happen to be craving a tasty bowl of Kitsune Udon while waiting your turn). read more

This guy charges more than any other place in the area. He's dirty. My car seat was gross after he sat in it. Fuck this guy.

My normal smog check place only had one worker and six cars ahead of me so I came to Master city smog and was out of there within 15 minutes super fast reasonable price! read more

Very cool guy in there, and he did the smog check super quick. Five stars for sure, I'll be back in two years

Located practically across the street of ajiisen ramen. Been going here every time I need a smooth check. Fast service and very attentive smog check specialist. Plus 40 dollars is cheap for a smog check. They do all the paperwork for you and send it off to the dmv! read more

This gentleman is helpful, honest, and cuts right to the chase. The prices are fair and I'm always in and out swiftly. I've been going to him for years for smog testing. Most recently I had an issue with a low battery and data that had been wiped from my OBC by a dealer service tech, causing me to fail the smog test. The owner explained what the likely issue was, advised me on measures to take and asked me to come back within 30 days. I did as he prescribed, came back in a couple of weeks, and passed within 5 minutes. read more

I've been here twice so far and thr Owner has been nice and quick. I called in advanced to see how much the smog check was and he quoted me $45 (both times). On my first visit, he was helping out another customer who turned out to fail their smog check. He charged them a lower fee I think and told them to drive another 200 miles and to come back and it'll pass next time and it'll be at a lower cost for their second round. He helped me after and I sat there for less than 10 minutes and was done! Paid and was on my way out. His service was so quick, I saw back with a second car and service was the same. Helped, paid, and out in less than 10 minutes. I highly recommend this place if you're looking for fast service at a reasonable rate. Just make sure to call in first to see he isn't busy! read more

I went in at 3:00pm, there was no wait at the time. I asked for a Smog check for DMV registration and he said $45. I gave the employee my keys, he parked the car in the appropriate spot, hooked up the obdii device and did some manual inspections of my engine bay, and then closed everything up and unplugged his cord from my car. He printed out the results and handed them to me. I paid the $45 and I was out of there by 3:06pm. FASTTT service. Side note: As I was waiting for my car to be done, 2 other customers showed up. read more

The owner, Harry, is a cool and honest guy. In and out within 10 minutes and reasonably priced. I would recommend this smog place to anyone.

Always a smooth and easy process for a smog test. I have taken 3 cars in over the last several years and he always is efficient with the test. read more

Fast and easy. I had an older car that needs to be tested every year. I took it here and I was in and out within 20 mins. It doesn't look too appealing from outside but it gets the job done. I'll definitely come back here for the next test. $60 for an old SUV. read more

Went in today. Got an education. Good guy, honest guy. Quick and easy smog check for the actual check. Will definitely come back to this place whenever I need a smog check and recommend my friends to do so as well read more

Needed a smog check as my weekend driver was due. Its been two years since the previous smog check of course and I had just tuned it up. I walked up to a technician who was beginning a smog check at Master City Smog, This man (cannot call him gentleman) barked at me saying "what do you need" . I told him i was wondering if he performed pretests. I wanted to see where my vehicle stood prior to the actual test. He suddenly became the most arrogant person on the planet barking at me with a disgusting grin on his face "Not so much. Why do you want a pretest? Why dont you just smog???!" For those of you who dont know, a pretest usually costs much less than a fully cycled smog check. Most smog stations offer this just to see where your vehicle is with smog numbers. You are able to collect information on what may need to be repaired before an actual test. Nothing is transmitted to DMV. Needless to say, i didnt want to be barked at like a child. I sighed, realizing the childish hubris that I had just walked into and just walked away. People who treat customers this way should not be in business at all. Ended up going to Vista Smog Test, West Covina. Gregg performed a pretest and full test. Car passed with flying colors. The only Mastery at Master City Smog is a master at hubris.

Easy. Fast. 40 bucks for my Corolla with a certificate. This place opens at 830. I went there instead of the few other places at open at 9. I was in and out in 10 mins. The owner was friendly and spoke excellent English. I think he also speaks Mandarin and Cantonese. We chatted about oil change and some basic car maintenance. I suppose if your car passed the check like mine you'd have no issues with really any place. So I guess my review is really a quick snap shot. I'll update it if my car does not pass so I can offer a different perspective. read more

wow has it been 2 yrs already? This time they charged $35 + $10 for the certificate. I went at 2ish, dropped off my car, and went across the street to Ajisen Ramen. After I was done with lunch I waiting in Ajisen until I saw them moved my car to the side. 45 min ish wait no BS read more

Quick in & out.Got there ~5:15 (after work), was on the road by 5:30. Very friendly guy. Same $ as other places near my house, but the bonus was it being located only 2 blocks from work! read more

Got in last minute on a Saturday and the service was quick and pleasant. Would definitely recommend this place!

Paid my car registration, yay! Then I got a letter from the DMV saying...thanks for paying but you forgot to get a smog check. Oops! So I'm driving on expired tags...decided to stop at this place on the way to work just to get it done. Stopped by a few minutes after 8, and was in and out in 10 minutes. Easy! Also reasonably priced. I'll be back when I need another smog. Can't say much about the mechanic services since I didn't use them. But there was a very strong smell of deep fried fish when I was there. Weird. read more
