Car wash
Carlo G.

Anticipate to wait for a LONG time at this car wash. I visited this car wash on a Saturday afternoon and I waited for almost 45 minutes for my car to get washed. This is an automatic car wash, but only 1 car at a time can get washed. Each wash takes about 5 minutes according to a sign that I didn't see until moving up a little further in the line. There were about 8 cars ahead of me which makes sense why I almost had to wait 45 minutes. I opted for the most expensive wash because I had a lot of gunk on my car I wanted to get off. The car wash did a decent job, but my car still had a good amount of gunk remaining on it. For almost $15, it wasn't the worst though. One thing I didn't like is how the machine bent my front license plate. Not sure how it happened, but when I exited the wash the license plate was bent. They also offer a self-service vacuum station which I didn't get to use since I didn't have time as I didn't anticipate having to wait super long for this wash. Overall, not the best experience here. If you had time and wanted a cheap wash, this could be an option. I would not come back unfortunately.

Long wait times, doesn't really wash or clean that well. It's good if you absolutely have no choice but it honestly doesn't help as much for the price spent. Once out you have to go around to vacuum the inside if you choose.

The Burbank Express Car Wash is the kind of spot that makes you feel like you've stepped into a well-oiled machine--slick, efficient, and ready to handle business. For a self-service car wash, it's got that undeniable "I know what I'm doing" energy, like a boss who doesn't micromanage but still delivers results. The layout flows like a symphony of suds and water jets, keeping your ride clean and your time respected. While the soaps and scrubs could use a little more muscle--think less handshake, more bear hug--the overall experience is impeccable. It's a quick and satisfying stop, almost therapeutic in its precision. There's a quiet confidence in how this place runs, like a Rolls Royce purring in the background of a Rick Ross track. Burbank Express doesn't just wash cars--it levels up your day, leaving you feeling like a boss who's got it all under control. Price is unmatched.

Blocking driveway out.

Car wash takes FOREVER. Waited in line 20 mins for it to move up two cars, decided I have to go and then the car in front of me blocks the driveway out. Owner comes up to my car yelling at me to reverse back out the long driveway. Reverse onto a busy street? Are you crazy?

DO NOT GO HERE After the wash, I went straight home. The whole body of the car had brown tiny spots all over it. It was definitely not there before. I spent 2 hours afterward scrubbing it off. The availability of drive through car washes is scarce in Burbank so gave this place a try. Big mistake. Waited 45 minutes and saw many cars waiting so thought it would be promising but boy was I wrong

More dirt left on my car
Miko S.

Dang, I wish I saw the reviews instead of just going to this place since I live nearby. Still dirt on my car. And just basic dirt, not even stuff that would be hard to scrub off. Don't bother with this place.

Pretty much does what it says--washes tote car. The free vacuum is a nice touch but is a touch underpowered.

I felt like my car was given proper attention and no surface was overlooked. For the price, you are given an expert wash. I love that you can hang out in Le Pain Quotidian or one of the other surrounding fun shops while you wait for your car.

This review is abt the owner of the business who seems be quite unprofessional, unethical and…read morehighly irresponsible. I brought my car for wash and one of the mats had lollipop stuck in one corner and smoothie spill on the other corner. I asked during drop off if this could be taken off and the guy seemed nice and offered to try. In my opinion he should have said that he doesnt have the right tools or skillset to clean the mat rather than offering to try at the cost of damaging the mat? It turned out the mat got clean but the corners looked sanded/grinded and the rest of the mat has a design of some sort. I messaged the guy at pick up, who said the design will go away when dry - it didnt! Then upon drying, i took the mat to show him the design and sanded corners and he said it will go away with use - i dont believe it! It's hard to believe this business cause the goal post keeps moving. No amount of brushing the mat is making the pattern go away. The more concerning thing is that the owner completely disowned his business when i called him, he gave me a run around and then hung up on me. His employee made him call me back and he talked to me like he did me a favor by cleaning the mat?!!! His tone was offensive and rude and he obviously didnt take accountability of whatever happened to the mat. I would have liked the business to replace the mat THEY damaged or reimburse me for it. That would be the right way to handle an incident as such! The owner was in not apologetic of what happened, instead deflected what happened.
