Can't believe it's been over 11 years since I reviewed this place. Still the place for me to look like a million bucks since the '80's. Family owned with brother and sister working the first two chairs. No gimmicks or hip looking decor like the new barber shops around town aimed at the younger generation. Just good conversation and a great haircut. Prices have gone up obviously. Regular=$28. They do offer senior and military discounts. O read more

Great place for a haircut. Always satisfied with the quality. Worth the wait if you have to.

They don't take appointments and I'm definitely thankful for that, I'm looking forward to getting my haircut there.

Nice having a local barber shop that is not a major national chain. No frills place, has sufficient number of barbers to prevent having to wait too long. I recommend this barber shop. read more

Best priced haircut in all of San Diego county. Jorge, Arturo & Albert are awesome! I drive out of my way once a week just to go get a haircut at Alberto's. read more

Very kind barbers. Took care of my son's cut and asked questions along the way to make sure we were happy with his hair. 100% making this our regular barbershop. read more

Just a great barber shop with professional barbers. Always look great and feel great when I walk out.

Let' start off with me saying that I go to places at least three times before rating them. This gives them a more fair review. The first time I was here I had a haircut with Sergio ( i think) and the other two times with the owner, Albert. All of them have been great haircuts. I was irked with the cut today because it took a while to get seated; however, Albert took great pride in his work and makes an effort to get to know his customers. This can cause the cuts to take longer, but it is worth it as the haircuts come out pretty good for what you pay The hair cuts are about average time in length 15-30mins. Can be faster, but like I said their customer services is great. Parking: No issues. read more

See all

Professional barbers with excellent service. Got to meet and Albert and he also did a great job, will be going back for sure!

Alberto's shop has never failed me. I asked for a specific cut and got everything I wanted. The barbers there are complete gentleman, with the exception of one very nice lady. I highly, highly, highly recommend! After my cut today I do not plan on going to any other barber. Ever. Thank you for the cut, thank you for the care and have a Happy Thanksgiving! read more

Great old school barbershop. No sign-up sheet or app; just sit down. The place was clean and the people were friendly. They except only cash. At the time of this review (April 2022), the price was $19 for a men's haircut. read more

Very professional. Went in for a beard trim and was advised that they stopped doing beards 2 years ago.

Excellent place to get your hair cut exactly the way you want. Wait times can get longer on certain days but the wait is worth it and the line moves pretty quick. Great job!! read more

Most definitely the best barbershop in the area! All the barbers are welcoming by greeting customers as they walk in. Gentlemen in the first chair was on point with my cut. He did not push my line too far back which is normally the case. Will be back for the next cut! read more

This is a family owned business that takes pride in their work. I have never been so grateful to have them service my hair every month. I will be honest.. I did not like getting my haircut every month prior to coming here because I felt like I was overcharged and undervalued. This is no longer the case now that I have experienced a barbershop that will take their time with each cut and will make sure you are completely satisfied. I refuse to go to any other barber in the world - that is not a hyperbole. read more

Me and my brother just went yesterday, 2/5/22 for specifics, and they did a really good job on the both of us. True mom and pop barber shop. Scissor cut, and razor. Would definitely recommend. read more

Great place to get a good old fashion cut and straight razor clean up. In and out no frills and still under 20.00

I've been going here for 8 years now. Since my high school homecoming Alberto's barbershop have been taking care of me and my brother. They have always been an affordable place to get a good haircut. I have many friends who are barbers that charge more than $25 for a haircut that these can guys do. Don't forget to tip. Thanks to this place for always being consistent. read more

If you need a great cut, go see Armando. He's been cutting here in this old school Barber shop for over 30 years. Nothing fancy but they take time to do it right. read more

Good people like this make the community special. Support them through these tough times and always good haircuts.

A nice place for a female to get a male haircut. Everyone was very kind and respectful. I highly recommend this place if you want or need a man style cut for a woman. read more

Came here by way of Yelp reviews, and this place has our business! Walking in, I wasn't too sure about things since there were two barbers not with customers who didn't acknowledge us when we came through the door and sat down. Although it would've been nice to greeted, we didn't wait more than 5" before they had taken breaks and my son got called. I was impressed with how much time and care our barber took (sorry; didn't get his name) but my tween son's hair turned out really well! He got exactly what we were going for and did an amazing job. The price is right, too... enough for extra tips. No frills, but awesome cuts. We'll be back! read more

I love going to this barber. Alberto the owner will always greet you regardless if he cuts your hair or not. I use Jorge to cut my hair as he know how to cut my hair and I never find any impertions later on. read more

Came here randomly with my 5 year old and 11 year old boys and man was I was happy I did. Both my boys left looking handsome. Definitely a veryyy old school place but quality cuts. They both have difficult hair one having curly and the other pokey straight and they did a great job giving them both a comb over fade. Highly recommend the man in the first chair with gray hair and the woman and will be coming back. read more

Great Barber Shop. New to the area. Alberto treats you like family. One side of my face grows thicker than the ladder, and he worked with my beard very well. Recommended to anyone looking for a relaxing shave. I will post before and after picture to see what a great job he did. I will be back to Alberto' Barber Shop soon. read more

I walked into the shop and the first thing i notice is foam and straight razors. Definitely a big plus in my books. This place is as good as it gets. While i patiently sat waiting for my turn, i was entertained by the conversations that were going on, then it hit me! BAMM!!! This place is straight old school, which means quality work and passionate barbers. Just by listening i learned that this shop was family owned and has been up and running for a long time. And as a barber shop, that also means that they have loyal customers and provide quality work. I was completely satisfied at the attention that my barber javier paid to my cut. Made sure that no stray hairs were left and that everything was PRECISION! Lets say that i will be definitely be coming back in a few weeks so that these gentlemen can keep me looking "so fresh and so clean clean" If you live in the Chula Vista, Otay area and have been looking for a quality barbershop, I have found your answer! CHECK IT OUT! read more

I don't really do haircuts because...well, I don't have that much hair anymore. Yes, sad, I'm only 24. But I had the sudden urge to get one and I was tired of Supercuts' $17 buzz, so I tried Alberto's barber shop and it was cool! They made my no hair look like some hair and even told me a few ways to "help" me with my problem. Not that I didn't already do that research years ago but it was nice of them to help out anyways. I got my hair cut by Wally Ray. He's a cool guy and he talked to me the entire time. It just felt right, you know? He didn't charge me for trimming my beard either which was awesome! $15 for the haircut. I'm coming here when my hair is longer-hopefully thicker haha. I would definitely recommend it. read more

The best old school style barber in Eastlake. All barbers are great at what they do and experienced.

I lived in Chula Vista since 2000 and would always pass Alberto's until today. I really needed a haircut and was in the area so I thought "why not" and walked in. First and foremost, make sure you have cash ready since they do not take credit cards. The barber that did my haircut was very professional and did everything I asked for. They even did the hot lather in the back that no too many places do these days. If you're looking for an original barber shop with decent prices, look no further than Alberto's. read more

I've been looking for the best barber shop in town which was not too far from where I live. This barber shop had excellent reviews so I decided to give it a try. And, I wasn't disappointed. My barber was courteous and was very attentive to detail. FYI: Cash only and they give military discount. read more

The best around. Real barber chairs, with real barbers and barbicide (that's the blue stuff that the old school barbers dip the combs in) Barbers are the best. The icing on the cake is the warm, shaving cream they use at the end to shave the sideburns and neck. read more

Been coming here for almost 10 years. Great place for a guys haircut. Well worth the $.

My go to barbershop ! I think I've been to each of the barbers and they all did great. The price is also very reasonable. It's cash only though so remember to bring some along. read more

Went here for the first time after reading all the good reviews on Yelp. Everything everyone has said about this place is pretty accurate. I had to wait a little while before it was my turn but I didn't mind waiting because it showed that they take their time with the customers and make sure their satisfied with their cut. When it was my turn I definitely felt like the barber was passionate about his work. They also finished my edges with some shaving cream and a straight razor. That was the first time I've ever got that treatment from a Barber Shop and I'd mos def be coming back here when my hair grows back. $15 is kinda expensive for a haircut until you visit this shop. It's worth it, but bring cash 'cause they don't accept card. read more

My go to! Always friendly with a reasonable price. These barbers are experts and have been doing this for years. I trust all of them!

Javier did a great job with my 18 month old toddler. Not everyone can cut thin hair and he did a great job. My kid was calm looking around everything and Javier talked to him while cutting his hair. My husband goes there also and usually also sees Javier. He reports being pleased with the service. Javier is there Monday to Friday. Bring cash, if you forget there is an ATM at the 7 eleven next door. read more

I have been going here since I moved to San Diego. It doesn't matter who's chair I sit in, I walk out looking good. Even on a busy Saturday the wait isn't bad, as they are quick. Cash only heads up; there is an ATM next door. read more

Been going to Albertos for about 20 years. Armando does a great job for me, but all the barbers there are top notch and prices are reasonable. Highly recommended! read more

First time here, Mr. Alberto took care of me and did a great job. Very nice people, very personable. Nice classic barber shop, nothing trendy, just skilled courteous barbers. Will be coming here from now on! Thank you! read more

All Barbers are great. Many locals come here. My son has been coming here since he was 7 year old. He 26 now! Armando is great and leads plenty of banter in Spanish, very entertaining yet professional. Javier runs as great shop inherited from his father Don Alberto. Great value. read more
