He said I could come by and would only wait a few mins, as finishing up with another customer. He gave me a quote over the phone and offered their promotion for $20 off (which they offer on their website). Very reasonably priced! I was in and out in about 20mins. Quick service, professional and friendly! Definitely coming back for my next smog check.

Been getting my car smogged here every few years, and it's always pretty quick and seamless. I…read moredon't live too far from here either so that's a huge plus. I called on a Saturday around noon to ask if I can do a walk in for a smog. They close at 2 pm on Saturdays and the gentleman who answered states they can take walk ins and there currently wasn't a long wait. So I headed over there about 30 minutes after the call. Parking space here is limited, so be prepared for that. When I got here, there were 2 customers ahead of me, one finishing up a smog check and another just had his car towed here for repairs. I was helped within 20 minutes after arriving and was here a total of about 40 minutes total for smog. Again, great and quick service. The waiting room isn't too bad. They have a huge tv you can watch as you wait, magazines and a few chairs you can rest at. There's also a huge window where you can see into the bay. There's also masullo pizza next door if you want to eat while you wait, but the technician might be done with your car before the food arrives. Pricing is average for getting car smogged, and they do take credit card. I'll continue to go here in the future.

I'm in a lot of different areas for work, so having a reliable place I can count on in this part of town makes a big difference. Every time I've stopped by, the team has been consistent--quick, professional, and respectful of my time. They get the job done efficiently, and I've never felt pressured into unnecessary services, which says a lot these days. They also do a good job checking the basics like fluids and tire pressure, which adds real value and helps catch small issues early. The location is super convenient if you're already in the area, and it's easy to swing in and out without it turning into a whole ordeal. That kind of efficiency is huge when you're trying to stay on schedule. Whether it's just a quick oil change or a basic checkup, they've been dependable every time. If you're in Downtown/Midtown/East Sac and need something done without the hassle, this is a solid spot to keep in rotation.

They agreed they could assist and told me they weren't immediately busy and could see it promptly. I drove over immediately and let them know I was the person who had called about the headlights. They asked if I needed any other services and even though my oil change wasn't due for another 500 miles, since I was there, I said they could do ahead and do the oil change. When they were finished with the car, I went up to pay, which was the first time they mentioned they did not have the bulbs and could not change my headlights. Since that was the entire reason I brought the car in, it very much felt like they took advantage of the opportunity to make some money rather than be honest about what they could do for me. Won't be back.

Price is in the range as expected. You don't need an appointment I think. I walked in, checked in and they took care of the rest. The parking lot is not huge but I didn't have a problem get a spot. The waiting room is clean and if you want to have a coffee they have a coffee machine. I got my car checked in. Sat down and send two texts for work. My seat is not warm yet and my car is ready and brought out. I really appreciate how efficient they are. Had a great experience here and would come back if I ever need to~

And every time this happens, I can only vaguely remember the last random place I found to get my vehicle tested, via a Google search. So once again, I used Google, and found this gem. The reviews looked pretty good, so I decided to give it a go. I went in last week, after I got off work at 4 PM. Yes, getting down Folsom Blvd during rush hour traffic did suck ass, but once I got to Smog Express, it was smooth sailing. It wasn't busy inside, and the gentleman behind the counter helped me right away. They charged me around $60 ($65?) For the test, which I felt was pretty reasonable. The test itself maybe took 10-15 minutes, and I was all set and ready to go. The service was quick and friendly, and the prices were reasonable. I couldn't think of one good reason to give this place less than five stars. I wish they were located a little closer to me, but that's an MP (my problem), lol.

Back then, I brought in a 2010 Yaris for oil service, owner told me the battery needed to be replaced. I didn't listen, lo and behold within a week, my car died and I was late to work. Ever since then it's been my trusted auto shop. I now have a new car, I trust the owner and the shop, so again I bring in my car for routine oil change. Oil change is always efficient, minimal wait time, and good price!!!! The owner is so patient to explain to me how to maintain my new car. He is honest and caring. I learnt that he's in business for 36 years and counting. I trust this auto shop to provide care for my car and its customers, not about the money, it's about their passion and commitment. I recommend this auto shop to anyone who wants to find a shop that cares for what you care!
