    just love watching cars getting cleaned
    Kristine Cross P.

    This Auto Spa is really a gem ! Top notch service, from dropping off your car, choice to get gas too if you wish, to paying (the store has drinks, accessories, cards, massage chairs inside while you wait, and chairs outside while you wait. The owner really knows and values their customers as to how well this place is managed, the workers are incredibly hardworking and all smiles, full of laughter as they do their jobs. I appreciate these kinds.. this goes to show how well they're cared for by their employers-- I hope they keep that in mind that without them, business won't flourish. I value this place-- price is not over priced and the atmosphere is welcoming and so I do support this place... just a block away from home, always open. Come check it out and see to experience yourself and I hope you can also do your review.

    Warning for anyone thinking about going to Culver Auto Spa I paid $37.99 plus tip for a Super Wash at this location, and what I received was beyond disappointing ,it was insulting. My car was returned to me still dirty inside and out, with dust, dirt, and debris everywhere (see attached photos). It honestly looked like no one had even bothered to clean it. This is not just bad service , it's a complete lack of respect for customers' time and money. For almost $40, I expected at the very least a basic clean, but instead I left feeling cheated and frustrated. If you value your car, your money, and your time, avoid this place at all costs. There are plenty of other car washes that actually deliver what they promise. What I experienced here was unacceptable, and I strongly recommend looking elsewhere.

    I have been going to Culver Auto Spa for about 2 years now and I truly appreciate their attention to detail. They always leave my car feeling brand new, smelling good, and looking good! The workers are all very hardworking and management has excellent customer support. I appreciate how close it is to the UCI campus making it convenient for me to get my car cleaned whenever I need. I would recommend Culver Auto Spa if you're looking for a good basic car wash or higher end detailing. They will treat you like family here.

    Culver Auto Spa is hands down the best. They wash my Tacoma every single week and it always comes out looking brand new. The attention to detail is amazing, the service is consistent, and they really care about doing a great job. I wouldn't trust my truck to anyone else. Highly recommend!

    The manager, Antonio, was very nice and offered me additional services at no additional cost. I definitely recommend this service to people trying to get their car very clean, and very quickly.

    I'm a regular here! Love getting my car washed here whenever I'm in the area. It's the only establishment that refers to me as "boss" instead of "m'am" or "miss" - a real ego boost. I usually just go for the basic or super wash :)

    I rarely take my cars to get a car wash since I prefer to do it myself. However, when I do decide…read moreto let someone else do the job, I only go to Ultimate Custom Car Care. It has been over a decade since I've been coming to this place for my car washes and ceramic coating. They do a solid job and the prices are good for the quality you get. Everyone here is friendly and efficient. Steve, the owner, is great to work with and used to man the front of the house here. However, I've noticed that he's not always here and he has someone else taking care of the phone calls and checking in. All in all, great service from everyone. Prices are up-to-date on their website, which I appreciate. They have a really small area to park your car into their garage for the wash, so be mindful of the limited space when you come during busy times.

    My girlfriend comes here regularly to get her car cleaned, and since I hadn't had mine…read moreprofessionally cleaned in a couple of years, I was actually really excited to try it out. First thing to note--this place is easy to miss. I embarrassingly drove right past the entrance the first time because it's a pretty small opening and hard to spot if you're going even a little fast. Had to loop around the block and try again. Also, there's only space for about two cars to queue before you're basically spilling into the street. My girlfriend and I parked one behind the other, and honestly, another car behind us would've been halfway in the road. There is street parking nearby though if their little alcove is full. When we pulled in, there was a ton of activity--cars constantly moving through, getting cleaned, etc.--so it's clearly a popular spot. My girlfriend mentioned there have been times she's come and had to leave because the line was backed up into the street, so I think we got pretty lucky timing-wise. Price-wise, I think it's solid. For an exterior wash + interior clean, it felt reasonable. Since we came together, I think they held our cars to finish around the same time, so it ended up taking about 1-1.5 hours. Honestly not bad, especially since there are a bunch of cafes and restaurants within walking distance if you want to kill time. They also have a really nice waiting area--I even saw someone working on their laptop, so I'm guessing they might have Wi-Fi too. Now... my one big issue. They threw away my parking sticker. You know those apartment gate stickers that automatically open the gate? I had mine on my dashboard (still on the original backing because I sometimes lend it to friends who watch my cats). I get that it might not have been in the usual spot, but it very clearly wasn't trash. What made it more confusing is that they didn't even fully clear out small trash in my car--there were still a couple random paper/sticker backing pieces left behind, so it's not like they were just tossing everything indiscriminately. Also, for context--my car was clean going in. I don't keep stuff in my car beyond a reusable grocery bag or my tennis bag sometimes, and this was one of the rare times I even had a little bit of trash. So I don't think this was a situation where my car was cluttered and something got accidentally swept up in a bigger cleanup. That part was honestly frustrating. Overall, I would come back because they did a good job cleaning the car and the price is fair--but I'd definitely make sure to remove anything remotely important beforehand so there's no confusion next time.

    Unique Car Wash & Auto Detailing - Had both trucks detailed. They both came out perfect and Vic the owner was very helpful and great to work with.

    Called for an appointment to just do their standard interior/exterior detailing package, but Vic…read moreand his team went above and beyond from the start. They pointed out some paint scuffs I hadn't really thought about and offered to fix them at a much better price than a body shop would've charged. They also took care of my cloudy headlights, which made a huge difference. My biggest concern was the interior (years of built-up stains from daily driving), and they were able to get them out way better than I expected. While they worked on the car, I just walked over to a nearby coffee shop, which made the whole process super easy. Overall, really happy with the results. Great service, fair pricing, and just a down-to-earth team. They even offered a free wash if it rains, which is a nice touch. Would definitely come back!

From the moment I pulled in, the team was friendly, professional, and genuinely passionate about what they do. First off, the attention to detail is unreal. I thought my car was "pretty clean" before -- I was wrong. They made it look BETTER than the day I drove it off the lot. The paint was glossy and smooth, the wheels were spotless, and somehow they even got rid of little interior stains I had completely given up on. Every surface inside felt fresh and restored without that overpowering chemical smell some places leave behind. What really stood out was how thorough they were. They didn't rush the job. They treated my car like it was their own -- carefully, meticulously, and with real pride. You can tell this isn't just a quick in-and-out wash spot; this is true detailing. Customer service was also top-tier. They explained the services clearly, didn't try to upsell me on anything unnecessary, and made the whole process smooth and stress-free. Pricing felt more than fair for the level of quality and care they provide. If you're in Costa Mesa (or honestly anywhere nearby), do yourself a favor and bring your car here. Whether you need a quick refresh or a full detail transformation, this is the place. My car has never looked this good -- and I'll absolutely be back.
