Absolutely incredible service--hands down the best car wash in the South Bay. I'm a regular here and my car always comes out looking fantastic, but this experience truly blew me away. Recently, I pulled up and realized I had forgotten my credit cards. I mentioned I needed to turn around and come back, and José--always smiling and so kind--wished me a Merry Christmas and refused to let me leave, sending my car through the full-service wash for free. Completely unexpected and unbelievably generous. You just don't see that kind of customer service anymore. I couldn't wait to come back and give a big, well-deserved tip. Shout-out to José and the entire friendly crew for consistently delivering top-notch service and treating customers like family. This place sets the gold standard. read more

(1 star) This was a waste of time and gas. I drove from Palos Verdes to Red Carpet Car Wash in Manhattan Beach based on the reviews, specifically so I wouldn't have to clean my car myself. Instead, I ended up cleaning it after they did. I waited about 10 minutes. I clearly asked for all sand to be vacuumed and asked the manager to remove an old window sticker. Both were acknowledged. When I got home, there was sand still left in multiple areas: the driver footwell, rear driver-side area, passenger seat, and trunk. The car wash was not busy, so this wasn't due to volume. The sunroof was left hazy with cleaning product not fully wiped off. There was also cleaning residue left on the windshield wiper switch, the tire shine was uneven, and sticker residue was still left behind. I even tipped the attendant $20, and still had to re-vacuum and re-clean my car at home, which defeats the entire purpose of coming here. If I were ever to consider returning, it would only be if they offered at least a full detail to make up for the inconvenience. I also have photos documenting all of this. They can always email me at carloshernandez2675@gmail.com if they would like to amend this visit. read more

Jose was very friendly! The 5 minute car wash was a breeze. Your car gets dried by both the fan and toweled down. Most drive thru car washes only use the fan. read more

I would give zero stars if I could. I brought my car in yesterday and paid for the $50 package, but they didn't even remove the spider webs or bird droppings before handing my keys back. I had to point it out to the workers myself. Then when I got home and opened my trunk, I realized it hadn't been vacuumed at all. read more

Red Carpet Car Wash Manhattan Beach - Car Wash Near Me - Manhattan Beach, California

Came in for a full car wash/wax and detail. Jose and his staff are friendly, detail oriented, and get your car done in the promised time frame. read more

The Baseline: For a car wash service, the vehicle must get clean,the facility equipment is maintained and serviceable, and the service must be friendly in servicing the vehicle. Service: Friendly and efficient service in finding the right priced service at the start. Jose was a great salesman. The car washing equipment did not dent or scratch my vehicle. The finishing crew was friendly and took good care of my detailing. Facility: Well kept and maintained facility and the waiting area was nice. read more

Rude and aggressive staff. They just want to rush you through the process, and worst of all an employee actually hit my car. Terrible communication and instructions overall. To be fair one employee at the beginning was kind and welcoming in the beginning. The guy at the entrance of the wash tunnel was just rude. read more

I've been a member at Red Carpet for years. I look forward to getting my car washed weekly because everyone here is so nice and does a great job. Jose, Isidro, and team are like family. Thank you always!!! read more

I had a really disappointing experience here and would strongly recommend going elsewhere. I brought my car in for a standard cleaning and was told it would take some time but three hours later, my car was returned to me looking essentially the same as when I dropped it off. The exterior still had visible dirt and splash marks, and the interior was barely touched. Nothing was properly wiped down, surfaces were still dusty, and overall it looked like no real effort had been made. What was even more frustrating was being told that the splash marks on the sides of my car were from "cement" or "dirt" that I had driven through, and that they couldn't remove it without charging me an additional $300. That didn't sit right with me. I ended up going to another car wash down the street immediately after, and they removed those same marks with no issue--and confirmed it was not concrete. Also worth noting: I have two car seats in the back, so I understand there are areas that may be harder to access--but that doesn't explain why even the front of the car was left uncleaned. Overall, this was a complete waste of time and money. The service was slow, the quality was poor, and the explanation given felt misleading. I won't be returning and would advise you to not go anywhere near this place if you're looking for a good quality car wash. read more

I've been a member here for a few years, and they are pretty good. They are friendly, efficient, and reasonably priced. I am on one of the ongoing all-you-can-clean packages. Whenever I want to do a higher level of service, I receive a discounted price, which is nice. If I haven't used the service in a while, they occasionally comp the upgrade, which is very forward thinking of the biz owner. read more

I have had my car washed here 3 times now and can NOT RECOMMEND. All the employees are friendly enough and the facility is modern & clean. But the $50 standard car wash does not get your car clean! They are fast but that doesn't matter if my car is still dirty. I had to spend 20 minutes finishing the job when I got home! There were water spots, crumbs on the seat, dust on the dash controls & screen and the back window was streaked. Something I didn't notice till it got dark and I could barely see thru the glare. When you include the time spent waiting in line to the wash and dry it's more efficient to go to a drive thru car wash and finish it myself. At least the car will be clean!! I gave them multiple chances to do a good job but no more! I'm giving 1Star because, after $50 and almost an hour of my time, my car was still dirty. read more

I paid over $50 for just the outside of my car to be washed? And this was the premium wash... Floor was dirty. Doors dirty. Dashboard dirty. Steering wheel dirty. Seats dirty... First time and won't ever be going back. read more

Spent $40 for car wash, vacuumed, and cleaning inside. So much dirt under seats, not vacuumed properly. Dash , side panels, cup holder area was not wiped. Back trunk wasn't vacuumed neither. Not professional cleaning employees. Not worth $40 read more

I drove into the Manhatten Beach carwash with floor mats and I drove out without floor mats! I notified management, the response was they have cameras and they don't remove car mats! Well videos can be edit and altered! I have totally lost trust in this business witch I have utilize for many years! read more

Everyone is very nice but I care about a clean car. After coming here a few times paying $40-50 per wash plus a tip, I can honestly say what a disappointment. The inside of my car is always pretty clean and my back seat immaculate. It needs a bit of the front cleaned and mostly the exterior. Every time, it doesn't appear that my driver's side floor has been vacuumed at all. Barely a wipe of the dashboard as it's still dusty. And, I always leave with numerous amounts of bird poop that's not wiped off amongst other issues. Don't waste your money here. read more

The service here is always impeccable. Our cars are always given back to us looking like showroom condition! Our family had been coming here since the 80s, and we won't be going anywhere else! If you're someone who likes to get their car washed weekly, sign up for the monthly pass! It is definitely worth it! read more

Service is always explained thoroughly. They always take care of your cars just a little bit overpriced.

the price does not match the service . it literally took them less then 15 minutes from beginning to end to clean the car , the interior was barely vacuumed, the window was left with spots . I could have gotten the same results from one those do it yourself 7 dollars car wash . i went home and cleaned the interior myself after going through one those quarter car wash places to use their vacuum. The cheapest wash is $39.00 . you would think they can at least minimum vacuum it right . so disappointed. read more

I've always passed by here and have been wanting to bring my truck for a few months. I finally decided to come by last Friday around 11am. The facilities looked clean and everyone was nice so I thought it would be a great experience and maybe my new stop for washes. However it turned out to be one of the worst quality washes I've ever had. After paying more than $50 dollars, I got left with a truck that I still ended up having to wash and clean thoroughly myself. The wash itself is bare mimimim and did not leave on any type of shine/wax protection. The employee after did not take any care in drying any remaining water spots. My windows and interior were left barely touched also. To top it off the person assigned to my truck after the wash still pulled up his Zelle number for a tip after providing this type of service. I will be warning other family and friends in the area and reporting this establishment to the BBB for advertising products the customer is not receiving. read more

Do *not* take a car with wide wheels or low profile tires (e.g., Tesla M3 Performance). After a year of going here found out their guide track ground down the inside of my wheels and damaged the sidewall of my tires (driver side, front and back). This is severe damage, not some simple scratches. read more

Only take your car to this car wash if it's already clean. This place is not thorough. After the "cleaning", there was still dirt on the outside and inside. It didn't look like it had been washed or vacuumed at all. When I pointed this out, I was told that my car couldn't be cleaned because it had been "oxidized". I've never had this problem at any other car wash. I also had to point out that it hadn't been vacuumed and we were sent back to have it re-done. But even after the re-clean, there were still several areas that were missed. We had also been told that they would wipe down the dash and vacuum the trunk - but it was clear that neither happened - not even in a cursory fashion. I took my car in to be professionally cleaned because I thought they could do a better job than I could do myself - which I've always found to be the case in the past. But I could have done a much better job + saved money and time. I'll still need to wipe down and vacuum the interior. read more

I usually go to this car wash to get a hand wash, but for whatever reason, the person at the check-in line suggested I get some sort of surface protection, which I didn't really see the value, but because I was talking to a Porsche owner that was also there ! the extra add-on made me oversee the normal hand wash price. Like I said, I only really wanted a hand wash, but they up sold me some sort of surface protection, which was not the service I requested. read more

Quick, friendly and consistent. I can always count on these guys! I've never waited more than 20 minutes even on busy days.

Fast. Thorough. Spotless. Pulled in dirty, drove out looking brand new. No missed spots, no streaks, no shortcuts. Great crew, smooth process, fair price. This is how a car wash should be done. I'm not going anywhere else. read more

It's been 10 years since my last review. I left all car washes because I had a convertible VW Cabrio and hand washed it myself. Fast forward, I sold that car and bought a new 2024 Lexus and returned to Red Carpet car wash. I'll have to say that I was not as happy with their service as I was 10 years ago. The prices jumped way up (which is not a problem if they did a good job). I literally had to walk around my car pointing this and that out til I was satisfied. There was bird poop still stuck to my car and windshield. It's just basic things that you would expect to be cleaned. I will continue to go back and I will continue to make sure it's done right. I just hope that management would take surveys to make sure their customers are satisfied. Aside from that... they took the Ms. Pac-Man game away, Is the coffee still there? Happy to see that Jose is still there. It's nice to see a familiar face! The gals working the registers are friendly and the mini store is always super clean and organized. They have a ATM machine as well. read more

He's a true GEM The guys on the lot dry and polish my vehicle to a mirror shine:) There's plenty of seating while you wait; a koi pond to entertain the kiddos or masseuse to massage the kinks out if you like. The best car wash in the South Bay for sure! read more

I took my brothers car here yesterday to leave it clean and fully charged for him. 39.99 for the basic wash but included vacuuming and windows.,, so they said. I was so disappointed when I drove off and saw the windows were so streaked and wiped down like my child washed the car. Also, the back seat floor and trunk were not vacuumed Horrible job! I should have done the 8 dollar Costco drive thru.. read more

I paid $49 for a car wash... It was supposed to include armor all. Not only is nothing armor old. They're still crumbs throughout my car and they didn't even open the hatch and clean the back window. This place is a complete rip off. read more

Very easy, convenient, and professional starting with JOSE who checks in all the cars. Quality of the wash was excellent and a fair price (today everything costs more so keep that in mind since minimum wage at Mickie D's is $20/hour). I could not have asked for a better job - well done! My car was thoroughly cleaned inside and out. They shined it up and made it look like it was the day I bought it. Such a great job Red Carpet Car Wash and JOSE - I could not be any happier! Another great perk is Big Joe's Dent Removal in the same lot as the car wash and a beautiful mall (Manhattan Village) across the street with many restaurants and shops. read more

As a New costumer looking for car cleaning services, this place is not it. Nor do they try to help instead they're very rude. Costumer services is something they do not have or care for. I paid $$$ for a car wash and this is how my car is sent back to me I specifically asked if I could please get a wiped down and a good vacuum .. I should have listened to all these reviews and not waisted my money. Please don't even give these people the benefit of the doubt. They won't give you a refund or be understanding. read more

There's an increasingly hostile vibe at this place, almost as if you somehow stumbled into the 'Soup Nazl' episode of Seinfeld. Service writer was even more abrupt and dismissive than usual this time -- even moving not a single muscle to help when I accidentally dropped a water bottle and eyeglasses (my wrist is in a splint). Instead he stared straight ahead, making his exasperation clear. The lady inside at the cash register seems similarly aggrieved, as if customers are a colossal inconvenience. The $40 tab for a basic wash includes a wipe-down of "console and door jambs" -- but apparently this was not included during my visit, as these areas were returned to me as dusty as when I pulled in. After several years of paying 'luxury prices' at this place, I'm out. read more

Red Carpet Car Wash Manhattan Beach - zero attempt made at wiping down anything in the car - Car Wash Near Me - Manhattan Beach, California

I visited this place today April 3rd in the afternoon. The car wash itself was good, but the experience was uncomfortable. As much as I love speaking Spanish, I don't appreciate being called mami or mi amor by the guy handing out tickets, nor do I need comments about my hair. I'm here to get my car washed, not to deal with unsolicited remarks. It's unprofessional and disrespectful. Because of this, I won't be coming back. read more

Not happy at all with my experience at Red Carpet the other day. I paid $40 for a full wash and they barely touched the inside.

I went in for dent removal (which was excellent btw) and also had the car detailed. When I picked the car up I noticed that the silver hood letters on my Range Rover were all discolored, no longer silver with black markings on them. When I enquired about this they said, it was from the buffing (or the chemicals, do t exactly remember) and "there was nothing we can do about it. It happens all the time." I thought, well, if it happens all the time, then you guys should know what not to do to them! I asked for a refund and was denied. They brought out a sheet of Range Rover letters to show me and told me to order them on EBay and put them on myself?!!! Huh?! You guys just ruined my hood letters and want me to get cheap ones from eBay! I just had them professionally replaced at a cost of $600. I'm still open to a refund, if anyone is reading this. read more
