I've gotten my car inspected here the past several years because they have a super orderly process and never hassle me the way some other stations in the area have in the past. You park, put your car on the waitlist, wait a few minutes,...Read More

Shimon’s is a rare gem. In an era where it feels like everyone is trying to upsell or overcharge, this place stands out for its honesty, fairness, and genuine care for customers. They have some of the best prices around, and their team is always...Read More

Honest people. Kemal never tries to upcharge or oversell. They always stand by the work they do if there are any problems. Prices are generally cheaper than other local mechanics.

Their mechanics are honest about the services my car needs and the final price usually comes in a bit under what they quoted. I always get my car back same day and cleaner than when I left it :)

Despite moving far away from this place, I still bring my car here for service and yearly inspection. Their staff knows their stuff, communicates well, and will never upsell you on unnecessary work.

My daughter's car had been parked in an outdoor space for almost a year. I dreaded what a mechanic would find ...and how much it would cost. Kemal (I hope I am spelling his name correctly) did an amazing job of getting the car...Read More

I wish I could give it more than five stars! This is one of the most honest garages you will find. Anytime I take my car to the dealer than claim I need a laundry list of fixes, and then I take it to Shimon's...Read More

very knowledgeable, helpful and professional. These guys are very serious about their work and business. This is a location easy to miss as it is slightly tucked away. This is a gas station as well as a service station, you can also get your yearly...Read More

Honest, efficient, helpful folks. My favorite place for all my oil change and inspection needs. I had a nail embed into one or my tires near a construction zone and it when I called Shimon’s to see if they can take my car in, they...Read More

Very affordable and did a great job. My car needed a major part of the transmission replaced, the dealership quoted me $3,500 but Shimon’s did it for $1,800 and didnt up charge the parts at all. Car runs great now!

Quick and straightforward. The reputation that's being described as negative is this team getting misunderstood. If you have a problem with your vehicle this team will find it and resolve it in a jiffy! They are getting the work done quickly and correctly for multiple...Read More

I've used Shimon's for our state inspection the last two years, and each time they were attentive when I arrived, quick with the inspection, and courteous to me and all the customers at the shop. I have every reason to keep returning.

I have been using Shimon’s for at least 10 years. Honest mechanic, fast turnaround, does not try to sell more than is needed, kind staff and always gives a reasonable price. He is definitely a neighborhood favorite considering how busy he gets!

Great auto service place. I was having trouble starting my 2011 Jeep Grand Cherokee. I had brought it to a jeep dealership twice and after about $1,500 in repairs it still was struggling so I brought here to try an independent repair shop. …
