Fitted my smog check in right away. Very efficient and got right on with it. The building could do with a lick of paint but I'm here for the service not the aesthetic. The gentleman who helped me was so polite and kind - that is what prompted me to write a review. He showed me where all the leaves were blocking the air intake and cleaned them all out for me. I've been parking under that tree for years and no mechanic or oil change service person has ever informed me, or cleaned them out. I was just there for a smog check but got a valuable lesson rolled in. Grateful! read more

The level of customer service was nothing less than awesome. I needed a smog check to renew my tags and they took me in same day. They were busy but checked in to make sure everyone waiting was ok. You can tell that the value all their customers new and returning ones. They do other repairs and oil changes as well. read more

Needed a smog check and looked up yelp to find a good vendor. After making some calls (price and availability), I choose Ace Smog Center in Eagle Rock since they had a competitive price and was available. I was greeted and serviced by the owner's son who was very friendly and knowledgeable. I also ended up getting a oil change at the same time since the smog check service was pretty quick. Overall pleased and recommend this location. I will be coming again for smog checks in the future. read more

I always thought the rule was pass or don't pay when it comes to smog tests. Not so much here. A family member referred this place, so I brought my car in. It didn't pass the smog test, and I was surprised when I was handed a bill for $70. The annoying thing about newer cars is that if they are not driven, they will fail a smog test so you have to drive 100 miles in order to pass. I drove my car for 100 miles and brought it back. Thankfully, it passed but I was charged another $40. Needless to say, next time I'm going somewhere else. read more

I can't remember how many years I've been using Ace for my Smog Certification, but I can remember that each time I've been there, the service is always fast, friendly and honest. What more could you ask for? This morning that streak of good treatment continued and I hope they'll be there for as long as I need them. From so many years of being helped by Varooj and his son, Aarin, I have confidence that they will. In their waiting area, there's a sign that says they can also be of help in other automotive areas like helping to sell your vehicle, body shop work, car rentals, and injury lawyers. As they say, "Connecting you with the right and honest people." Check them out. read more

Ace Smog Center - Smog Test - Smog Check Stations Near Me - Los Angeles, California

I am so lucky I came here. I first got a smog check and was told about my break pads were getting really bad. They not only fixed my break pads and adjusted my rear breaks but checked my tires and even fixed my bumper. Everyone is so kind and helpful. As a woman I don't always feel super comfortable going to a repair shop, but this place is different. The wonderful owner and his son Aarin kept me informed throughout the process and even gave me suggestions for places to eat in the neighborhood. I will absolutely recommend Ace to my friends and family as well as everyone else in the area. read more

Varooj and Aaron make an amazing family business. They are friendly, honest, transparent and fair in their pricing. I got my smog checked and then came back later in the year for an oil change and brake pad replacement. Great service and will be back again. read more

Quick and professional service! Really made the hassle of a smog check, such a breeze.

I usually just come in for a smog check, but went in for an oil change this time around, they did not disappoint. Varooj and Aarin are good people and explain things in a clear / concise manner. Edmond the mechanic did a great job in doing the oil change and performing an inspection of my truck in a timely manner. I highly recommend this establishment for not just Smog check(s), but other services your car requires. read more

This father and son team are true legends! I needed a smog check so I decided to go there. Smog check experience in California, especially LA, for me at least, has always been an unpleasant experience. This time, upon visiting Ace, that experience has changed. I was cheerfully greeted, felt more like anew friend than a customer and the smog was painless. Very clean shop, they do oil changes and basic vehicle check-ups as well. I was expecting to be charged a bit more but to my surprise the price was right for me, great value! I recommend this business!! read more

I've been taking my cars here for years, Varooj is always pleasant and friendly and I'm always out of there in no time.

My regular place closed. I was in a pinch and tried this place. I scored! There was one other person ahead of me; but the two men who worked there were efficient and I got out quickly. They were also helpful, letting folks know that they could go to AAA in Glendale or a local supermarket kiosk to get their car registration completed. They were polite and there was a shady place to sit and wait for your car. Found my new smug check place. read more

Friendly and quick smog check. Immediately when I pulled in I was helped and asked what service I needed. Thank you for getting me in and out in a timely matter. Will bring my other vehicles here for smog check. read more

Vroosh was great friendly and efficient. He had me in and out in no time. He got me and my smog fast

Stopped by ace for an oil change last week. The mechanic called me over to take a look at the oil leaks I've been having and briefly explained where it's coming from. I also had a talk with Aaron,in which I'm beyond grateful for. He had mentioned that he knows people on the personal level who can take care of anything I needed, ranging from body work, auto mechanics and even car rentals. It just so happened to be were of my friends were in need of a car rental so we called aaron, who then called a friend that worked at enterprise and was able to give us a rental at a discounted price. For someone who isn't as educated in the auto mechanic world I can confidently say you can put your trust into Aaron's hands to get the job done. 10/10 ! read more

Arin is doing a wonderful job continuing his family's legacy of putting kindness and integrity at the center of their business. I came in for a smog check, which was done efficiently, priced fairly, and uploaded to the DMV right away. I love that they have a wall of books for customers to read and mementos on the walls. A true neighborhood gem! read more

I was driving home and remembered I had a smog check due and happened to run across this place. Both the father and son were super friendly and quick with the service.
