What Customers Say
"They saved me $550, exactly half of what the other shop was going to charge me."
I cannot recommend this place enough! Friendly, helpful and HONEST, both with repairs and pricing. I had gone to a shop up the street, who told me I needed new calipers, rotors and pads. They wanted to charge me $1100. After almost paying, I called Mario's Garage and they quoted me $725, and asked if I truly needed calipers. They did the repair and found out I did not indeed need calipers, and charged me $550.
"Rather than charging me hundreds of dollars, we started with replacing the gas cap for $20."
I've been bringing my cars to them for the past 4-5 years. Their prices are very fair, they are friendly, and they do great work. What I admire most is that they are incredibly honest and trustworthy. They always try to save customers money by starting with the most cost effective option.
"He identified the issue immediately. After two dealerships failed to find it for over a year."
Our 2009 Subaru Outback was stalling at intersections erratically for over a year. We took the car in to 2 Subaru dealerships on several occasions and they couldn't find the problem. We got a referral to Mario's garage and discussed the engine stalling problem with Mario. He identified the issue immediately.
"A dying breed of mechanics who actually diagnose versus the parts replacers."
I am a qualified diesel mechanic and when I need maintenance on my car that I don't have time to do myself I bring my car here. They are honest and very competent. A dying breed of mechanics who actually diagnose versus the parts replacers.
"I've been taking cars to them since 1987. And I'm still a happy customer."
I've been taking cars to them since 1987. I'm still a happy customer! Honest, reliable and they always look after me and get me back on the road quickly!
"They were honest and showed me the old parts. I am glad they were caring enough to keep me safe."
I am a young woman and new car owner. As someone who knows nothing about cars, when they notified me that I needed more things done to my car than a tire change I was hesitant. They were honest and showed me the old parts from the car. I am glad they were caring enough to notify me and keep me safe.
