I got panhandled in the parking lot. Unusual high security layout made me feel unsafe. Guy is in a plexiglass cage inside the store and the aisles arrangement is blocked by other aisles - I'm guessing in some nod to security... very limited selection and the guy wouldn't even look up at me when I paid. The upside is that the gas was cheaper than across the street. read more

I go to this gas station often to refill my propane tanks the people who work there are friendly and helpful read more

This place always has low priced gas and is open 24 hours. The prices are cheap for credit and debit card payment forms. I like it better than the Arco chain of gas stations because it will also accept credit cards. Never had any customer service issues. They recently renovated and upgraded their gas pumps. It's worth the drive to fill up on gas here. read more

Sinclair Gas & Dino Mart - a tree in a planter - Gas Stations Near Me - Los Angeles, California

If you're trying to get a car wash and have bought the code from Shell, beware. I don't know if Sinclair Dino Mart & Wash is trying to rip me off or the Shell across the street, but I'm fed up with invalid car wash codes. It's happened to me twice already. Y'all have been warned. I always buy The Works for $8.00 at Shell and have my car washed when it's dirty. The first time, I used the code on the last day of the expiration date, but I was two hours away from when the code expires. When it was my turn to punch in the code, it said the code was invalid. I brought it to the owner of Sinclair, told him that I had bought the wash from Shell, and he just told me to get back to my car to get the wash without an explanation. I went to Shell to fill up gas a couple of days later and explained what happened to the clerk. I specifically asked the clerk not to sell me invalid codes cuz that's a very unethical way to do business. He said he wasn't selling me invalid codes and that I was at fault for using the code on the last day. I reminded him that it expires according to the time and he just said to have the wash before the date. If that's the case, then print out the correct expiration date for the code. The second time I went to Sinclair for wash, I encountered the same issue: invalid code. My code doesn't expire till a few days later. I brought it to the clerk, the clerk told the owner, and the owner once again tells me to get back in my car without an explanation. I had to ask him why Sinclair and/or Shell are selling invalid codes to customers and that is shady business. He just answered that it was a new computer issue. No it's not cuz this happened 3 weeks ago as well. read more

Take this train for what it's worth because I'm sure the owners don't care. The second star is only for the price of the car wash. 8 bucks for their "maximum" is pretty good BUT it took 30 minutes to wash 5 cars. It's supposed to be an "Express" wash but it is anything but. Beware read more

Sinclair Gas & Dino Mart - the dinosaur sign - Gas Stations Near Me - Los Angeles, California

Was surprised to see a Sinclair gas station & Dino Mart as I passed through downtown Los Angeles to Alhambra. Had to go in and check it out. Everything is nice & new and of course well stocked. Was told it opened for business just a few weeks ago, and the official grand opening should be soon. I was hoping to find some Sinclair Dino memorabilia inside the mart, but nothing, minus 1 star. read more

Disgusting place! Yuck. The place is so filthy and smells so bad, expensive gas for this shitty place

This VALERO / SINCLAIR gas station is the filthiest gas station I have ever been to! This is Los Angeles, I get it, but this gas station is always filthy. Inside and out. The strong smell of feces/urine (inside and outside at the pumps) is very strong and the screens on the gas pumps themselves are so filthy (with what looks like spit) that you cannot read the numbers on the display. There were also 3 creepy drunk men standing at the pump asking me for money. MY ADVICE IS TO AVOID THIS VALERO GAS STAION. Disgusting! Yuck! read more

No fuss propane refill. Called from work for a friend that had no gas in her Grilling tank for her valentines day dinner for a potential mate and they told me that it wound be under twenty bucks to refill the whole tank. Arrived after work with my friend and as I was walking with the tank a guy in the garage pointed to me and said someone will be with you shortly. Another guy comes out the store and grabs my tank and filled it up under five minutes. Now I know where to fill my camping or grill propane tanks instead of using uhaul that charges a bit more. read more

I stopped by only because this was the only auto vacuum near where I was, and I had to vacuum the glass out of my car after thieves broke my window and stole my guitar (I love LA!!!!!). Two stars only because the vacuum worked. I half-expected to get hijacked or held up while vacuuming my car. Cholos everywhere. There were halfway normal people around too, but not enough for me to let down my guard. I'd only ever come to this neighborhood in an emergency, such as this was. It's too bad what L.A. has become. read more

Left pumps on at night even though they were closed. They still took my credit and only then did I see the nozzle was physically locked so you couldn't pump gas. If they end up charging me, I'm going to do a chargeback. I smell a scam. read more

Worst customer service I've ever experienced! Highly recommend avoiding this place at all costs! I bought a car wash worth $7 and the code was invalid, (someone else used the code) they wouldn't give me a new code nor would they refund my money. I would come to this place for fuel, propane and car wash... not anymore, they lost a loyal customer and I'm sure they'll lose many more with their horrible service. read more

Really really really dirty. Guy doesn't look at you or speak. I waited for god knows how long to be rung up. I could have walked out without paying, come in again and do it over again like 5x. read more

This is such a blast from the past for me. I'm from back east and seeing that dino made me so happy. I go there late at night on the weekends after work. I always feel safe as the parking lot is well lit. The cashier is always nice no matter what time it is. Plus another bonus is the gas is five to ten cents a gallon cheaper. But for me the feeling I get from seeing the big green dinosaur brings me great memories read more

Just stopped to get gas and the attendant tonight was very rude. Did not say 1 word to the 3 people in front of me. He just kept talking on his phone. As i walked up to the counter he just held his hand out. I waited for him to finish his conversation before i let him take my money read more

Welcome back Sinclair! Its just a re-branded station but a balst from the past. Go down and get yourself some dino juice for the car and you can get yourself a Slush Puppie to enjoy the cruise with. read more

Happened again. He just told me to leave the money on the counter. Didn't scan the drink. Why in the world is this guy still being employed? Happened about 6 pm on 9/20/16. Wonder if he does it to other people, too. read more

Do not fill your propane here, they'll rip you off. I filled my tank and it was almost $3.00 . I thought my tank was half full but it was still full. They charged me for a full tank. So if you have a half or some propane left in the tank they will charge you for a full tank no matter how much you fill it. Will never buy anything from here again. read more

Refilled the propane in my RV super fast! The tech was confident, friendly and quick. Much better than my last Uhaul refill experience. I wasn't worried about this guy at all. read more

Cheapest gas station around this neighborhood. They do refills for propane tanks for a flat fee. This place is local and convenience so I'll definitely be going back for gas or propane tank refills. read more

Quality gasoline for generally the lowest price per gallon you can find anywhere in Los Angeles. Best of all it is gasoline that is produced and refined buy a American owned and operated petroleum company that it has been in operation for decades throughout the Mountain West region of the United States read more

I am a regular at this station. The price of gas does/can get reduced if you include a car wash in the deal. The cost is competitive, but the product is excellent and the service is friendly. The only complaint I have ever had is that after 4pm (when I'm on the way home) there never seems to be fresh coffee available. I wind up going to the 7-11 across the street. I know SOME PEOPLE snub their nose(s) at gas station coffee, but it actually is of high quality. read more

I've always used the rhino exchange when propane was needed until last week when I discovered the tank can be refilled easily at Sinclairs and it was quite a bit cheaper as well. Gas prices that day were lower than others in area. read more

I have been using this station exclusively and have been extremely pleased with it. The prices are not only competitive, but there is a reduction of gas price incentive when you get a car wash. Today I pumped about 12 gallons of gas and included the premium wash. When I got to the car wash entrance, there were orange cones blocking it. I went inside and was told that the car wash is broken. I asked for a refund. I was told that the wash code is good for two weeks. I don't live around here and I resented the fact that there was no notice about the car wash being broken. This station gets a big ding in customer service from me because of this. SORRY :( read more

This is a stunning gas station. The Dino Mart is superb. The attendant said the gas is made out of real dinosaur tears. Hoping they will offer full service soon. read more
