I have been a customer at Toriumi Auto Repair for over 25 years. I always get honest assessments of my car's issues and needs. The Toriumi mechanics always do an excellent job on my cars. Recently I was sick for several months and when my Subaru was overdue for its next oil change I got a text from the owner letting me know my car was overdue for its oil change. This family owned business is the best auto shop I have ever had my cars serviced at. read more

Awesome repair service for my Toyota Highlander. Great diagnostic and fixed tough climate control issue within quoted price.

Honest and reliable. Low key want to gate keep but Toriumi deserves nothing but success. Thank you for taking care of my old beater. lol.

the owner is very honest, repair was done as promised , and got the car back when promised, I highly recommend them. read more

I have been around the block ... a few times! I've met many mechanics and dealerships who always seem to have their hands in my pockets, looking for loose change. I really like Toriumi Auto Repair, they listen, perform outstandingly, and are very fair on the cost of repair. What else can you ask for? My recent repair was a coolant assembly on my vehicle, the dealership wanted $1600 which was outrageous; the parts and labor with Toriumi were less than half of the dealership, with a much nicer group of individuals to boot! I cannot recommend them more highly!!! read more

Yo Dave is fantastic! He fit me in last minute to redo my brakes and rotors before a road trip Reasonable prices and honest mechanics. read more

This place has good reviews for a good reason. I needed a simple splash guard underneath my Honda civic to be removed. It's literally a couple screws to remove and cutting some plastic underneath. Other shops were going to charge me an arm & leg. Lucky they were able to see me right away and boom I was in and out in about 15 min. I came from San Jose and wasn't able to do it myself. They exuded great service with a good attitude. One shop I called, the receptionist had no clue what needed to be done.. These guys are great. This will be the only place I come to when I'm in the area. Thanks guys! read more

I've had nothing but excellent service from Dave and Toriumi Auto Repair over the years. I was very saddened to hear about Dave's passing on New Year's Day last year. His son David has taken over the shop and apparently is doing a great job keeping his father's legacy alive. I will continue to give them my business without question. read more

Sounds silly but I needed help putting on new license plates. David assured me that someone could do that. Anthony was the kind gentleman who provided such service once I arrived, and refused payment. I am grateful beyond words. Their competence & attitude is why this auto repair service is so renowned in the area. read more

I noticed my low tire pressure warning light was on, on my way to Watsonville. I remembered my old friend from back in the day has a auto shop. David got my tires set to spec in a flash and I was on my way to gold at Pajaro. Thanks David and your great crew! read more

The best! Honest and friendly, don't hesitate to use Toriumi. They could've taken advantage of me and charged me a ton of money to fix my car, but instead they let me know it wouldn't be worth it. I appreciate their integrity. read more

Best experience with a mechanic I have ever had. Honest, reliable, knowledgeable, respectful.... There is not enough to say about Dave and his crew. I definitely recommend to anyone who needs work done or even has questions about what needs to be done, do not hesitate to go to Toriumi. read more

Just got an alignment done on their new Aligner. Fast, friendly and good price; I'll be back!

Been to a lotta car shops in my day. For the last six years I've taken my Honda CRV and Civic to Toriumi's, and I've consistently received reliable, honest and helpful service. It's nice to go to a repair shop that I can trust. Dave Toriumi runs the desk, answers the phone and oversees the shop. He is also very friendly and efficient. He runs a top notch business. read more

Honest, reasonable, and works in a timely manner. Good communication. Wonderful business. I really like Dave.

David is very honest and reliable . I would not hesitate to recommend his services as They can be trusted

This place is amazing. The first time I came in was because my car was leaking oil after I had just gotten it changed some place else. The other place would not help me so I went on Yelp to find someone who could and came across this place. Dave had me come in the next morning to look at it. All he did was tighten the plug for me and he didn't charge me for my visit. Since he was so nice I decided to call and have my transmission serviced. Made an appointment and 30 minutes later Dave calls back to tell me my car doesn't need it due to the lifetime guarantee on the fluid. I was surprised because another shop didn't tell me and they wanted to charge me $300 for the service. I ended up going in for a safety check instead and I'm beyond grateful for their honesty. I'm now a customer for life. read more

I went to Toriumi after a chain store told me I needed new shocks on my car. Wanting a second opinion, I spoke with Dave, who was super helpful and suggested bringing my car by for another look. Low and behold, my shocks are fine, and Dave saved me $900 in unnecessary repairs. I appreciate integrity, and would definitely recommend this auto repair shop to anyone looking for an honest answer to your car questions and needs. read more

I was able to bring in my car the morning I called them and they were done super quickly! Dave was very nice and helpful. Great business will definitely be coming back. Very reasonable prices and I felt comfortable asking questions about recommendations for my car. read more

We have been taking our pick up and two cars to Dave for a number of years. We could not be happier! Dave is completely honest, very helpful, reasonably priced and his staff are excellent. We recommend him highly! read more

Dave is knowledgeable, calm and fair. Super service and a kind way with both cars and people.

Took our old Jeep in non operable- runs great now! The reviews are accurate- this is an absolute must for any car, any age.

Six months later and the repair on my 04 sienna is still problem free. I want to emphasize the personable nature of Dave and his staff. I think an important part of selecting a business to repair your auto is having confidence in the mechanics doing the work and the people here at Toriumis take the time to ensure that their customer confidence is strong. Two years later and the vans engine is still running flawlessly. read more

I brought my 2002 Ford Ranger here today for the first time with a flashing check engine light and a few other concerns. The guys over at Toriumi quickly diagnosed the problem to a faulty coil pack and had my car back to me in, repaired, in less than 3 hours. The price for the parts / labor were more than fair, and I now have found my local auto shop. I will be telling everyone that I know to head over there. Thanks guys! read more

Best mechanic in the area!! Great guy and amazing service. Did a wonderful job. My new mechanic

I can't believe that I just found out about this great auto repair shop. Turns out that many of my friends have been going to Toriumi's for years. Let me let you in on the secret: this is a great place to have your car repaired. The service is excellent and prompt. For me, the value added is that both David and Kathy Toriumi are excellent communicators who explain the situation with your vehicle in clear terms. The prices are reasonable, the mechanics are skilled, and the work is performed and then checked. Thanks, Toriumi's! read more

This is one of those times when I really hate to point out what an excellent establishment we've found for fear that others checking it out will make it harder for me to get in! We trust Dave, the owner, with all of our cars! Dave and his team are super thorough when checking out problems, considers alternative repair costs, and work hard to get all repairs done as quickly as possible. Most importantly for a car repair place, they are honest and forthright every single time - you can trust them completely to be fair and competent! read more

Dave and his wife are very nice! I had a check engine light and needed spark plugs before traveling 60 miles. They got er done! Price was more than the dealer shop but u pay for emergency work when u need it! read more

Been a customer for thirty years. Wonderful family owned business.

My children (who are not mechanics in any way) were driving my 2004 Honda Element when it had an air conditioner problem. Dave was recommended by a local area business, and my kids drove over to see if he could help them. Dave's immediately looked at the car and diagnosed the issue. He then referred them to his trusted air conditioning specialist. Dave's kindness, expertise and professionalism impressed my kids. Many thanks to Toriumi Auto Repair, from a mom who appreciates having her kids helped when she's 675 miles away. read more

Dave is so nice. The whole staff works really hard and finish when promised. My mom loved them too! Very trustworthy. read more
