Having had my boat hauled out by several marinas over the years for sanding, bottom repaint, running gear clean and polish, and minor repairs, I am pleased to say Svendsens provided by far the best job yet at the fairest price.

The two coats of HD Petit were also expertly applied very efficiently with the outstanding expertize of Dennis.

I've been taking Range Rovers to Jack since 2006, and he's currently servicing my 2018 Range Rover Supercharged.

Even if your JLR vehicle is under a new-car warranty, taking it to 11th Street Auto Repair for routine service will be a cost- and time-saving experience. Mark M.

I've owned a Toyota for years, and I'm very particular about keeping up with scheduled maintenance…read more Because of that, I've spent a lot of time at the San Francisco Toyota Service Center, and my experiences there have consistently been very positive. Scheduling service is straightforward, especially online, and the overall process is efficient and predictable, which I really appreciate. I usually drop my car off early in the morning, and it's ready by the end of the day, or drop it early enough and then hang around for less than an hour before it is done. This makes it easy to work service appointments into a normal work schedule. That reliability goes a long way. What really stands out, though, is the service staff. The advisors I've worked with have been professional, courteous, and clear about what's being done and why. I've never felt rushed or talked down to, and communication has been solid from drop-off through pickup. Over time, this place has earned my trust. If you're looking for a Toyota service center in San Francisco that's organized, dependable, and staffed by people who know what they're doing, this one has treated me well.

My poor twenty-year-old car continues to attract random vandals in San Francisco. This time,…read moresomeone took what looked like a baseball bat to my driver's-side mirror. Eugenio is the man. Because of the positive experience I had with him last time at the service center on Geary Boulevard in the Inner Richmond, I brought my car here this time (he had moved to this location in the interim). Once again, he lived up to my expectations and was very communicative throughout what ended up being an annoying experience. None of the annoyingness was due to anything this place did. Rather, it took forever for me to get things working with my insurance, and when they finally got back to me, Eugenio was ready to take my car. I told him about the damage, asked him to inspect a few other items specific to my car, and had some non-vandalism work done (that I would pay for out of pocket). He agreed and got things rolling with the insurance adjuster they assigned to me. Unfortunately, Progressive randomly determined that the damage was due to a hit-and-run accident rather than vandalism, which I thought the evidence clearly showed, so rather than pay the $100 deductible I would pay under my comprehensive insurance, I had to pay the $500 collision deductible instead. Even the process of getting that straightened out took forever due to Progressive's lagging, so San Francisco Toyota had my car for almost an entire week before they (insurance) gave them the go-ahead. The real kicker for me was that Progressive didn't even pay the shop directly, so I could have had them fix everything right after they inspected it. (I paid Toyota, and Progressive is supposed to reimburse me the difference between the actual cost and my deductible. *Fingers crossed*.) The work was done professionally and well. I should say promptly too, which it was after all the insurance-caused delays. Eugenio helpfully provided photos of some of the other things I asked about and recommended some other repairs. I told him I'm just trying to get as much life out of this car as I can, and he totally understood and didn't try any kind of hard sale. In fact, that's why I like him and followed him here: He's honest and efficient. The physical setup here is also nicer than on Geary. There, you drive your car into a parking lot crammed with cars either waiting to be repaired or picked up, and you often have to wait in line in your car until someone can see you. At this location on Van Ness, you drive into the building, and because there's extremely limited space on the ground floor, they immediately move your car upstairs, even before you've finished talking to the service person. At first, it seemed sudden, but it also made it feel like the entire drop-off process went faster. When you pick your car up, they bring it down for you, no need to go searching in a parking lot for your car. The little waiting area is also very comfortable, although I didn't spend any time there except while I was paying my bill. As long as I have a Toyota in San Francisco, I'll continue to trust this San Francisco Toyota Service Center location for specific repairs, especially when insurance is paying for (part of) them. I would give them five stars except that it is a dealership, so the prices are on the higher end.

Alex was great and I hope the others at this dealership are too.

I don't normally write reviews, but my experience at San Francisco Toyota was so exceptional that I…read morefelt it deserved one. Before finding San Francisco Toyota, I had called several Toyota dealerships throughout the Bay Area looking for a very specific 4Runner. Unfortunately, most of my experiences were disappointing. Some dealerships never followed up, others gave me the runaround, and a few acted like they weren't interested in helping me unless I was ready to buy whatever they had available. It was frustrating, especially considering how significant of a purchase buying a new vehicle is. Everything changed when I contacted San Francisco Toyota. The first person I spoke with was Phil, and from the beginning he was friendly, knowledgeable, and genuinely interested in helping me find exactly what I was looking for. He took the time to discuss different options instead of trying to push me toward a vehicle that wasn't the right fit. After just one conversation, I already felt more confident working with San Francisco Toyota than I did with any other dealership. When I arrived at the dealership, I met Jacky, and the experience only got better. The team had three different 4Runner models waiting for me so I could compare them side by side. That level of preparation immediately showed me they respected my time and had actually listened to everything I was looking for. Jacky was outstanding throughout the entire process. He is incredibly knowledgeable, patient, and never once made me feel pressured. Since buying a new vehicle is such a major investment, it was important to me that I thoroughly test drive each trim before making a decision. Instead of rushing me through the process, Jacky encouraged me to take my time, ask questions, and really experience each vehicle. We went on extensive test drives so I could confidently decide which model was the best fit. What impressed me the most was how both Phil and Jacky treated me. They didn't make me feel like just another customer walking through the door. They made me feel genuinely valued. They understood that this wasn't just another sale. It was a major financial decision, and they wanted me to leave feeling completely confident in my purchase. That kind of empathy and customer service is rare these days. I also have to mention the dealership itself. It's absolutely beautiful. I've been to several luxury dealerships over the years, including Lexus, and I was honestly surprised that a Toyota dealership could look this modern, clean, and welcoming. It created a great atmosphere from the moment I arrived. If you're shopping for a new or used Toyota, stop wasting your time calling around like I did and just go to San Francisco Toyota. Ask for Phil or Jacky. They are both true professionals who genuinely care about their customers and make the entire buying experience enjoyable instead of stressful. Thank you to Phil, Jacky, and everyone at San Francisco Toyota for making this the best dealership experience I've ever had. You've earned a customer for life, and I'll gladly recommend you to my friends, family, and anyone looking for an honest, customer-focused dealership.
