    Wash doesn't do great job but oh well
    Faye L.

    First off, gas it relatively cheap here considering it's right off the freeway. They have a pretty nifty gas mart too with plenty of junk food and sugar drinks you can choose from. But this review is mostly for their touch free car wash. I've been dumb enough to wait in line for over 20+ minutes for a $7 machine labor carwash. The line gets LONG and I agree with fellow yelper Mike that there's no way outta the line once you get deep into the line. The car wash does an OK job and that's about it. It doesn't do a superb job. It doesn't even do a 'wow, look at this!' kinda job. It does what you'd expect from a TOUCH FREE no-human-washing-your-car kinda car wash. I think the spot free rinse works alright but the machine doesn't do a thorough job around crevices (be it door handles, under mirrors, wheels, etc - see pic). Whatever though - it got my car clean enough where my family stopped calling me a bum so I'm happy.

    I've never had a bad experience here. It's a little higher priced than most but it's probably because ta the first gas station off the freeway. But it's never busy, the mini mart is clean and the attendants are always friendly. One day I'll get a car wash but today is not that day.

    Vape commercials on the gas station screen. I ran my card twice and it debited my account once but the machine wouldn't give me a receipt.

    89 sodas are great, but what's incredible about this station/store is they have a lunch counter now and literally make the best wraps you'll ever have from a convenient store!

    You'd think that after spending $40 on gas, using the microwave in the convenience store at the…read moresame gas station wouldn't be an issue. I saw the "No Outside Food Allowed" sign taped to the microwave and respected the policy, turning back to find another place to heat my dinner. But the way the attendant handled it was unnecessary. Rather than addressing me politely, he barked at me as if I hadn't read the sign or was about to ignore it and do it anyway. To make the visit even more unwelcoming, there was no greeting when I walked in, despite making eye contact. I understand that retail can get busy, but there were no other customers in the store to justify that excuse. The first thing I noticed was his annoyed expression and crossed arms, like he didn't want to be there. A simple, "Hello, sir. I apologize, but we don't allow outside food in the microwave," would have been more than enough. Any reasonable person wouldn't waste time arguing over a policy like that. I had planned to grab some snacks and drinks for the road while my food heated up (if I had been able to use the microwave), but that interaction instantly changed my mind. If a business can't provide basic customer service, I see no reason to spend extra money there. On top of that, the store was poorly maintained. It had been raining all day in San Diego, and the floors were slick with tracked-in dirt. A single wet floor sign wasn't enough to make the space feel safe. Even as I left, there was no "goodbye" or "stay safe," which would have at least shown basic courtesy given the weather. I'm giving two stars because I believe businesses can improve when they take feedback seriously. But unless I'm in an emergency and can't make it to another gas station, I won't be returning to this location. This wasn't about the microwave, it was about poor customer service and an unwelcoming atmosphere. We all have bad days, but that's no excuse to take it out on customers. If another customer had been less patient than I was, this could have escalated into a bigger issue.

    Easy access from the main road and decent prices, better than the other nearby gas station here…read more It's also pretty well maintained and looks nice. I stop by here when I'm in Mira Mesa and need gas.
