I've been bringing my vehicles to Grease Monkey for over five years, and I wouldn't trust anyone else. Even though I've moved out of the valley, I still make the drive because I know I'm going to receive honest, reliable service every single time. Uri, the owner, consistently provides exceptional customer service. He gets you in on time, clearly explains what your vehicle actually needs, and never tries to upsell or recommend unnecessary repairs. It's rare to find a mechanic who is so honest, trustworthy, and genuinely looking out for their customers. Their prices are fair, the service is always efficient, and I have never once felt taken advantage of or ripped off. That kind of integrity is hard to find these days. If you're looking for an auto shop you can truly trust, I highly recommend Grease Monkey and Yuri. They've earned my loyalty, and I'll continue making the drive because I know my car is in the best hands. read more

This is the only place i will go to! they are the most helpful and they do excellent work. They are always honest and upfront with you. They never overcharge you and have extremely fair pricing. I highly recommend this place read more

Grease Monkey does a great job. Every job I've brought it in for has been done excellent. If I had any issues, big or small. They addressed it right away. Fair prices. GOOD PEOPLE. Like I read on another review. "They are a rare gem to find." Would I recommend it? A huge YES. My bro & his wife have been using them for years. I'm glad they referred them to me. read more

Uri and his employees are awesome mechanics who go above and beyond every time I visit them. They are so knowledgeable and friendly. Uri is really a great, caring person who always explains what I need to get done and even gave me tips to keep my cars in good working condition. Everything I have had done has been great. They are very honest about the work that needs to be done and will help you out as much as possible. They don't overcharge just because they can. From the first time I came, I knew that they would be the only mechanics that I will take my cars to and have definitely recommended to family and friends. read more

I love URI and his guys. I love getting in my car every morning without a horrible noise! Total confidence in them. Always honest and reasonable. read more

I tried doing my own rear brakes. Just to let you know: they are drum brakes, and drum brakes are HARD to replace if you're not an experienced mechanic! (aka me). After messing up a couple times and breaking a piece here and there, I wanted to give up and leave it to the professionals. Turns out, I also let some brake fluid leak out and now the system couldn't work properly. It was time that I decided to bring my car here for a proper brake shoe replacement and service. Took my Civic here at around 5:30pm on a Monday afternoon and agreed to leave it at the shop for the night. They had such a quick turnaround - around 3pm the next day, they called saying it was ready for pickup! And the price was so reasonable, too. Brakes worked as they should. Great customer service - Uri is very friendly as long as you come in with an open mind and respectful approach. Hopefully I won't have to make any major repairs to my car, but if I do, I'll be coming back here! read more

My first repair at the Grease Monkey, I had a side panel to my front driver's seat replaced on my car. The expensive part was out of stock so had to wait for it to be ordered for several months. I was charged a reasonable fee for the time it took to install. Unfortunately, only a few days later the part broke again and I now have to return to get a new one. Maybe not their fault but a cheap plastic part. Was also given inaccurate information on something else. Uri the owner is very friendly and his mechanic Omar was honest in telling me I could wait on the brake fluid change. I will most likely be back for other repairs - hopefully not too soon though! Ha! Ha! read more

Strolled in here around 3P on a Friday and the worker here was awesome. Only came for an oil Change but the gentleman helping me gave me free knowledge as well. Comfortable, friendly and it's on a side street so easy in and easy out. HIGHLY recommend this spot. read more

Took my Tundra here, my baby that I like to take care of myself when I can, and Uri was extremely professional and polite. He explained how he follows manufacturer recommendations and offered fair prices. I have some mechanical experience so understood everything he was saying, and he's truly an honest mechanic. I noticed he likes his coffee black, so there's no doubt he's a hard worker! :p I definitely recommend this business, just like the many other positive Yelp reviews on here. Keep up the great work!! :) read more

First time here for a broken side mirror replacement. I had visited another auto shop and they quoted slightly higher labor cost and said they would need to use non-authentic Honda parts because they didn't have any available, but Uri called and personally went to the Honda dealer to get the real Honda parts and he replaced it while I waited. I also appreciated that he showed me what he was doing when he opened up the door panel to do the work. I am always skeptical when it comes to mechanics but Uri was both friendly and professional and I feel like I can trust him to give an honest deal and do a good job. Now I have a new working mirror again. Thanks, Uri! read more

Grease Monkey repaired my car very quickly even though it's a hybrid at a very reasonable price.

Had a wonderful experience here. Uri was so helpful and easy to deal with. Gave me a way better quote than two other shops I visited. Highly recommend! read more

Always a challenge finding a new Mechanic. We'll let me tell you, ORI and the crew at Grease Monkey far exceeded my expectations. Honest and fair, so likable, and you can tell they take pride in their work. ORI went out of his way to fix my 2002 Nissan Frontier with 250,000 miles. It is now running better than it has in the past 8 years. I won't take my Vehicles to anyone else. read more

This is your honest, no BS mechanic. If you don't need to repair something that someone else said to replace, they'll tell you not to repair it. If you wait on something thats potentially dangerous to you and your family, they'll call you out and ask what you were thinking. I can't tell you if they are the cheapest, but I can tell you that they're very honest and do a great job. They work on all my cars, family cars , and friends cars now knowing the work they do is honest and done right. I've had other mechanics tell me to fix things that didn't need fixing and Uri has saved me money by not performing unnecessary work and even saved me money on new tires. A+ all the way. read more

Grease Monkey is by far the best mechanic shop that I have found in the greater Los Angeles in the 31 years that I've lived in the area. Uri, who owns the business, is a gem of a person: he knows his work well, is sincere and dedicated, and the charges are not merely reasonable but indeed I would say always less than what one might expect. His honesty in a business where the likelihood of getting fleeced is rather high is all the more remarkable. I recommend him very high and without any reservation whatsoever. read more

If your looking for a new mechanic do not I repeat do not come here ,save your money and time and find someone else ,they had my car for a whole day to fix a serpentine belt I was the first car there when the owner opened not only did he not fix the problem he asked to have my car for another day to fix the problem after being there all day I took it back a week later when I had a free day still didn't fix the problem told me drive it around for a week to see if the sound gets better it didn't he wanted my car again I said this is enough and said no he wrote me a check for what I had paid ,and he was working on my wife's car the first day after the first time and he couldn't find what was wrong with it took it to my old mechanic fixed it in 3 hours it needed a new left side tie rod.i told him he was a horrible mechanic and blamed it on his divorce and his old age ,but from what I saw he never worked in my car he had workers that suck and that are rude ,also he's rude to but I will never come back here again big waste of time ,all the people he said that goes to him are family and nobody new , read more

I called this location inquiring about a full service for my XRS corolla, (Oil change, rear breaks, AC, and full inspection) Luis (mechanic) was extremely nice, and professional over the phone. I took my vehicle in first thing in the morning and Immediately felt like I knew him and the owner Uri forever. The owner was kind, and honest about what my vehicle needed. I've always taken my vehicle to the dealer since it's hard to find a trustworthy shop, BUT that has finally changed for me. I highly recommended this shop and the services they provide. Uri and Luis are truly honest and professional about their work. read more

The Grease Monkey - My mustang. - Auto Repair Near Me - Los Angeles, California

One of the best mechanics in town, fixed my AC in no time. I am not going to no other Shop for my car. Love Yuri

My father has been going here for years to come and travels a good distance just to have his vehicles serviced here. I myself have also had my own vehicles serviced here and it has by far been one the greatest experiences I've had at a mechanic shop. If you want some of the best service you'll find at a mechanic shop you should come here! Only giving it 5 stars because it won't allow me to put more! read more

These guys right here are the best! I brought my girlfriends car in for brake services and asap they told me whats wrong within the hour and fixed what needed to be fixed not the 100 other things that didn't need to be fixed! My GF was very happy with the work and now i have a place i can have her go to when im not in town that will be honest to her! Most important thing about bringing your car to the mechanics is HONESTY! Thanks guys... read more

Uri (pronounced like Ori) is an honest, trustworthy guy who stands by his word. I got a quote for a job and he offered me a great rate. He was able to squeeze me in the day after I called him up. He replaced the radiator in my 2017 Fiesta ST with a new aftermarket one. It is working perfectly so far and the engine runs much cooler. Thanks again! read more

Honest, reliable and first rate service- every time!! My kids have their cars serviced here as well. They work fast and provide great rates. Uri is the best out there! read more

I had electric issue . Firestone kept my car for 2 days and could not fix. They charged me $99 and said it will cost $1000 to fix at the dealer. I went to ORI who fixed it in 5 minutes . Honest and fair, likable, and you can tell they take pride in their work. ORI went out of his way to fix my 2012 Jetta . read more

Uri and his mechanics are the best! We're visiting from Nevada and the car needed a big repair before it could be driven back. We were referred to Grease Monkey by several friends here. We only had one day before we had to go back home. Uri replaced the two knock sensors and wiring, which involved removing the entire top section of the motor the same day (even though they were busy)! What a great place. Thanks Uri! read more

Very rude service, called trying to ask for information about installation for brakes and the person answering phones was very short and unwelcoming. "Save the story" was his retort when I was just explaining what was going on. Not sure how they expect to get new customers with responses like that. read more

Amazing service at a great price. Very honest and didn't try to make me do repairs that were not needed

Fast! Clean! Honest and beyond reasonable ! Do it!!! I get so happy when I go to a small business that talks to me about my car and informs me about my car care. I could not believe how reasonable. I will gladly be back. One of my worst fears is going to dealership with all the lies to up sell me and I leave feeling suckered! Grease Monkey rapidly had my ford part delivered, installed, and then sent me on about my day! read more

This is the best small outo shop west of the Mississippi! I have been using numerous of other shops ond looks like thay don't know what they are doing. Thay keep changing parts guessing until something Maby works? Not at Grease Monkey - Uri is a wizard and a pro! Very curious and reasonably priced. I have a few cars one of them is 2009 ford Econoline E-350. Every time I did a break job in other places thay seeking ond not stopping. After Grease Monkey did my brakes it felt like new - stop on a dime and very quietly! Thank you Grease Monkey!!! read more

Terrific and fast oil change, air filter replacement and checked brakes (had 30% left) on my daughter's 2014 Subaru Outback. These guys are HONEST, very COMPETENT, super FRIENDLY and work FAST. I'll be using them often for all my cars/trucks/RV etc. read more

Simply great team they have their. They work fast and know what they are doing. Best mechanic in the valley for sure!

If your looking for a cheap mechanic.. Stay far away from this place because you hate your car and deserve to be stranded.Uri bangs out dealer quailty service at a FAIR price. If you drive by on any given day you will see his shop slammed full of cars and youll never see the same car there for more than a day or two. The Grease Monkey and his guys still have my 2000 Navigator pushing well over 200k miles like the truck that wont die and is now keeping my 325 BMW feeling crispy as new without the ripoff prices from the stealership. THIS IS A PLACE FOR THOSE THAT TRULY LOVE THEIR RIDE. read more

The Grease Monkey - Grease Monkey....the only place i trust with my baby - Auto Repair Near Me - Los Angeles, California

See all

Go here - go here - go here! I brought my lil Prius here to fix a standard problem. After calling my regular mechanic and two Toyota dealerships (Get it together SM - how can this thing cot $630!! Go home, you're drunk), Uri at Grease Monkey told me it would be about $300 to fix. This quote was already $300 less than the dealer and my mechanic. Grease Monkey also came highly recommended by my coworkers, and is the place my job takes our company vans. Knowing the NPO we are, they are committed to doing good for us, as well. Sure enough, my price not only was for the service/part needing replacement, but they did an oil change as well. I walked out still saving over $300 from what the dealer or even my (now former) mechanic would have charged me. Thankfully, I work down the street and can walk between the office and the garage. I am a convert - anything they can do for my car or my family's cars, it's happening at Grease Monkey. Do yourselves a favor and see them too. THANK YOU URI, LUIS and ORLANDO! read more

I can't say how much I appreciate this place. I was neededing my engine to be replaced and I shopped around to a lot of other business in the area. Hands down the best price and a job well done! My Mechanic was Uri, he was very professional and knowledgeable. He really took time to explain what was happening and what he did. He even showed me the old engine. Thank you Grease Monkey and of course my new mechanic for life Uri! read more

Uri, the owner is very friendly and honest. I went in for an oil change and tire rotation but he told me rotation wasn't needed. Most shops would keep quiet and take the extra money. Will definitely be back! read more

Took my 2008 Prius in for an oil change & service. They also ended up replacing my front brakes. The price was incredibly fair & I was in and out in just over an hour. I felt like they were very upfront and honest and I will definitely bring my car back again. Glad I found them. Thanks, yelpers! read more

I went in for an oil change and asked the big fellow to check out and/or replace my head light on the right side. He stated no problem and brought my truck in to have it serviced. 30 minutes later they finished the service and while paying for it asked about the headlight. The fellow with the tattoos said huh? I asked again only this time I asked if they had even checked them and he told me it worked fine. I walked out with them and showed them the passenger side. He stood there for a whole minute looking and when I asked him again he gave me this dumb look. I said evidently head lamp repair or replacement is not what you do? He didn't answer like maybe he was on drugs. I told him I was not satisfied with the service and he shrugged like no big deal. I told him I was going to complain and again he shrugged his shoulders. Very dissatisfied with your personal read more

Great honest mechanic! Uri is a very cool guy who tells you exactly what you need to get your car in top shape. They did an excellent job fixing my car and the turn around was quick as well. I would highly recommend them read more
