Boris always goes above and beyond. It's great having him in the neighborhood and knowing that he is fair and honest. I've needed him over the years and have never been disappointed. He's personable and patient - highly recommend. read more

This is a great neighborhood family run auto shop! My converter got stolen. Boris was able to help me source a new converter, and install a guard for me very quickly. He was also very patient with my questions since I'm not experienced with dealing with car issues. Would recommend anyone to give them a call! read more

My new car maintenance window expired after 24 months, so I was looking for a local independent mechanic to take my car to. Boris performed a complete 30K maintenance service that including changing oil, air, and cabin filters as well as checking and replacing all the necessary oil, coolant, brake, and washer fluids. He lubed all hinges (door, hood, etc), checked my brakes and tires, and cleaned up the engine. Boris explained all of the work, and noted some areas that I should keep an eye on in the future. This attention to detail and service, and the reasonable cost are valuable to me. I feel lucky to have found someone in my area who really is cares about his work and about his customers' cars. read more

I cannot say enough good things about this shop! I've taken our car to a few different shops, even some are people we know personally, and don't get the professionalism, courtesy, knowledge, and experience as the mechanics here. At this point, I don't plan on taking my cars anywhere else when it comes to repairs or even oil changes. If you are looking for an honest place that knows what they're doing, this is your spot! You literally have to look no further. I normally don't write reviews on mechanic shops, but I know how difficult it is to find a very good mechanic so I want to make sure I put this out there. read more

I wish I could give Boris at least 10 stars. He's an outstanding, expert mechanic who patiently explains each repair, and his fees are very reasonably priced. Most of all, he' s a fine man, the only mechanic I have ever truly trusted. Take your car to Boris Auto Repair, even if you live far from Glendale. You'll be glad you did. read more

This guy is the most humble and honest mechanic I've ever been too. Took my Acura TLX for a check up and he took the time to explain exactly what I needed done with the car since it was running smoothly without trying to upsell me on anything. It was done efficiently, quick, and fair prices! It's really hard to find a mechanic you trust and get along with but Boris is amazing! I'll definitely bring all my cars to him and recommend you guys do the same! read more

Amazing people! Boris and his brother Gagik are two of the nicest people I have met! I just drove in and they were happy to help me and have very nice conversation as well :) Highly recommend this business, they do honest work and you will have two new friends as well! read more

Boris has been our family mechanic for 25+ years. He's not only very knowledgeable but trustworthy. He really goes above and beyond to help his clients. Recently, my car battery died and drove to my house to replace it. Thank you, Boris! read more

Boris has been my mechanic for over 10 years. I bought a car in December of 2024. The car lot ripped me off. I took it to Boris to look it over. He informed me about the issues the car had. Went with me to the dealership, stood up for me, made them correct their negligence. FREE OF CHARGE. I was in an accident and totaled said car in July of this year. I gave Boris a call to see if he had any leads on a car for sale. Coincidentally, he was selling one at that moment. I purchased it from him right away, since I know I can trust him. It runs like a dream and feels brand new. Do yourself a favor and take your car to this man for anything you need. Highly recommend. read more

Boris is an excellent mechanic and is actually honest and takes pride in his work. He's been our family mechanic for the last 10 years. An awesome family business. read more

After owning cars for 20 finally I have found a mechanic that can be trustworthy.

Thank you, Boris. read more

I will always recommend taking your car here. If you want a mechanic that values your life, is honest and wants you to be safe take your car here! Boris is great! God bless you and your business! read more

Boris is great. A rare mechanic who really cares about his craft and your vehicle. He takes the time to explain the issues as well as how he intends to solve them. He always spends extra time testing the car after he believes he's fixed it to be sure before returning the car to you. Great value for the money, especially when it can be hard to trust mechanics. Can't recommend Boris highly enough. read more

Boris is great. He's always homest with me, gives me good information on the best way to resolve issues with my vehicles and makes timely repairs. I"ve not had any issues with any repairs he's done. And he's just around the corner from my house, so very convenient. Give him a try! read more

Boris is the most thorough and conscientious mechanic I have known. I took my 11 year old Rav4 in for 60,000 mile service upon the recommendation of a friend and the work that he did was outstanding and meticulously documented with pictures. Every potential issue on the car was checked and serviced and at the end I had not seen the engine so clean and shiny since I bought the car 11 years ago. A similar service would have easily cost 3 times as much at the dealer with most likely not the same thoroughness. I don't think I would ever consider servicing my cars anywhere else. read more

Great service and good price. Boris is an excellent mechanic , very knowledgeable and punctual with his job.I fully recommend it.

My whole family (parents, siblings, etc) have been long time customers of Boris because he is honest, hard working, reputable and reasonable for the price. He doesn't do work that doesn't need to be done, you can contact him at any time, and he'll always work with you. the automotive repair industry needs more mechanics like Boris! read more

Boris is an honest man who does great work. He's confident in his abilities and is priced fairly. He replaced the water pump in my Porsche Macan and it wasn't cheap but I knew he would do it right using only Porsche parts. He has given me a thorough list of things I will need done in the future. He changed the oil, transmission fluid, brake fluid and flushed the coolant fluid,all in 2 days. I will only take my vehicle to him in the future . read more

Boris was the worst mechanic I've ever had. He claims to be honest, but he's the complete opposite. He'll "fix" something and then break something else so you have to come back. I don't understand how people can have a business model like that and stay in business. read more

Boris is the absolute best! I have a super rare 25 year old Japanese car. Boris gave me a full diagnostic and tracked down any and all replacement parts. He's the best ever! Can't recommend him enough! read more

I was searching for a good mechanic around and came across Boris. I have so far taken my car there 3 times for 3 different issues and he did a good job taking care of the car.

Boris is still the Best. Went in for a simple oil change. Boris discovered that rats had been hanging out in my engine. He cleaned out everything and basically my engine looks brand new. Did not charge me any extra. That's what Boris does. He goes the extra mile. I don't go anywhere else. read more

Great experience from start to finish. Boris and his team provided exceptional customer service, and Boris took the time to thoroughly explain the problem I really appreciated the honesty and clarity. What impressed me most was how quickly they diagnosed and repaired the problem. I had a persistent brake issue that another mechanic couldn't figure out, but Boris solved quickly. The repair was completed ahead of schedule, and the pricing was very fair. Boris even broke down the cost of parts and labor, so there were no surprises when I received the bill. I'll definitely be returning for any future repairs. Highly recommend Boris and his team. read more

We've taken both our cars to Boris since we moved into the neighbourhood over 8 years ago. I'm very happy to have found a close by convenient place with a trustworthy professional!

We hope he'll be around for many more years! read more

Several years ago, I became unhappy with my former auto mechanic, so I asked around among my neighbors for a new recommendation. Numerous people suggested Boris. I started going to Boris regularly, and now my whole family does as well. He knows a car's workings inside and out, and he thoroughly explains what he recommends for your car, and why. He sincerely cares about extending your car's usable life, and doing preventative maintenance now to avoid more expensive repairs in the future. read more

Highly recommend Boris Auto Repair. Have taken my car there multiple times and am always happy with how thorough they check their cars. Also, I have an older Lexus and it's awesome that they don't shy away from working on this type of car since many other autoshops do. Boris is always very professional and explains the issues / potential causes very clearly. He also doesn't beat around the bush, which I appreciate. Great service and an honest autoshop A+ read more

My car had a smashed side window and Boris was very responsive and contacted me back immediately. I showed up and he helped me with a temporary mirror on the spot.

We've used Boris Auto as our go to service center for our cars for many years. He's honest and doesn't try to upsell you with unnecessary services.

I went to Boris the other day for the first time, on the recommendation of a neighbor. This place seems like it's one of those well-kept local secrets. My old beater Corolla needed some serious help after a lot of neglect, and Boris and Gagik took great care of it. You never know what you're going to get when you go to a mechanic for the first time, but these guys obviously take great pride in their work. The prices are very reasonable and more importantly, Boris went over all the items with me and was happy to answer all my questions. He was able to advise me on options for what to do next to keep my vehicle going into the future. With car prices still out of control, I'm thinking about hanging on to my family's used cars longer than I otherwise might have, so having a trustworthy mechanic around is going to be essential! read more

Amazing service. Fast (even on a holiday weekend), communicative throughout the entire process (with detailed photos), and even offered rides to/from the shop. Above and beyond type of service like this is almost impossible to find. A real gem of a business, I'll definitely be back. read more
