    I definitely needed a wash and when I pulled up I was impressed to see the different options. I ended up paying $70 because I added headlight restoration. The service was good and the headlight addition was nice. Cool place for detailed work. But if you need a quick wash - you may wanted to look elsewhere cuz it could be a tad pricey.

    My truck needed a good wash from being parked on the street with heavy construction and they recently did tree trimming without notice while I was home. It was so dirty and had minor scratches. Came in and they immediately greeted me and offered many options. They charged extra because it was a truck. To do a full wax was $240 but would take out the scratches from elements and grocery stores with tight parking. They hand washed the truck 100 by hand. Dried it with microfiber clothes. Although it would've been a plus I'd the microfiber clothes were the non-stitched ends that very expensive retailers use (to avoid scratches), it wouldn't prevent me from coming here. Since it was kinda empty (probably because they are new), there were only two cars being washed. This was a good plus since they are taking their time and not rushing like other places trying to keep the line down. Plus I didn't go to my usual spot because it's super crowded and they have the drive through wash which can take off the top layer of the vehicle paint after a while. With all the dirt and stuff in the paint, I wanted to avoid that. They did a pretty good job with the wax polish. Looking forward for the dirt not to stick and the car stay shinier longer. We'll see. If so, then they did it right and used good products. Hard to say right now but I will write an update. They charge $1 for debit card and credit cards

    I got a beat up 03 Honda that would get overlooked easy but they took care of her like she was a Bentley super satisfied with the mini detail and well worth the price. 10 out of 10 would highly recommend

    Pretty expensive for an average wash. Took forever and the sitting area was just folding chairs in a hot empty room.

    Don't waste your $40 dollars because they won't even vacuum your car right. Lots of water marks on the doors.

    So, when a small business does a truly kick-ass job at a very reasonable price, it richly deserves…read morea shout-out. I tried VIP Detail yesterday based upon its overwhelming positive Yelp reviews (Thanks, fellow Yelpers!). Upon arrival, I was greeted by a genuinely-friendly worker who took the keys to my white BMW X3. I opted for the wash & wax for only $75 (!!!). It was busy, but not crazy-busy, so I got my car back in about an hour. What's odd is that the customers in the waiting area I chatted with were all pretty effusive in their praise of VIP Detail. I've never encountered that whilst waiting at a car wash. Honestly, I have paid way more for details that produced results inferior to VIP Detail's! At the risk of this place getting busier and me having to wait longer next time, this is the best car wash I have ever been to! And, no, I'm not prone to hyperbole...especially when describing a car wash. Did I mention rhat everything is done by hand? I'm going to bring my car to VIP Detail from hereon out. There's an automated car wash right by my office, but they do a shit job for $30. And, you have to vacuum your own ride at the automated places. I'd gladly drive out of the way to VIP Detail to get a result that's orders of magnitude better. Bring your car here and get the wash and wax. You'll be really glad you did (as in, "made your day" kind of glad).

    WOW! They did an excellent job!…read moreI got the Diamond Wash. For $45 they cleaned the exterior and interior very well. Looks great! That said... here are a few warnings: 1. It is very hard to pull in here. Try to come during the work day when maybe there are less people. I made the mistake of coming at noon on Saturday. It was PACKED. 2. BRING A BOOK! It took at least 1.5 hours. Also, even though it was VERY thorough, they did not wash the rubber floor mats. I thought they would. Every other surface was thoroughly washed / wiped. Next time, I will request that explictly.

    I am finally giving 5 stars to this place due to David who helped me out today…read more So I come here all the time being the best regular client here since I love my car to be nice and clean daily nonstop. Cars need to be clean daily like humans lol. Since that particular last unpleasant encounter here, I still come here to get my car wash to see if they have improved. It's been better. I notice morning times are the best services ever due to older staff and young staff being more attentive and accommodating. When it's later in the day after 5pm is when they were under staffed which should be at least 3 staff working at each 3 major stations. 1. The station where the cars first enter to see license plate. 2. At the computer to go through the wash thru. 3. In the office. Having only 2 staff is just not enough unless each 2 staff are so efficient and so attentive not missing a beat to the 3 stations I stated above. Today I had the chance to meet their new manager, David. Nice guy who was polite to me and accommodating. He apologized for last particular encounter and I appreciate that about him. Just glad you guys are improving. But I'm sure this company is rich (having an accounting office in Beverly Hills) so it wouldn't hurt to have at least 3 staff members at each 3 stations working. So no customers including myself won't ever feel helpless like I felt the last particular encounter because there was no staff helping me at all at the entrance etc. Customer service is everything to me and I'm sure to many people of customers out there as well. I for one am #1 in customer service, being my service is always top notch that all my old and new clients are so attached to me. Boy do I have great stories lol. That's why when I go places, if I see any customer service that suck, it's very disappointing. But when I see any customer service that is great and even impressive, it's so refreshing. I'd like to keep coming here for a long time as I have been so I hope they always have only best customer service here. Never let any customers feel helpless here not even one. Thanks David and the sweet lady Janet (who has always been kind and good to me). I only give you two the 5 stars here. The rest I have yet to add.

    I'm a fan of this location simply because of its proximity to main streets, shopping and gas…read morestations...which makes it very convenient when I've got a small list of errands. Convinced the music is loud and obnoxious as a way to hurry patrons along. At least that's the case for me - the music is so loud I'd much rather have ear plugs than a microfiber cloth. Seriously, I feel for the folks who live in the area - it can't be pleasant to have to listen to that music blaring for 8+ hours a day, every day. Yikes! Great vacuum suction, plenty of trash cans and I love when there's an attendant at the pay stations, it makes the process go by much faster. Not great are the soap and/or water systems. Seems this visit, soap was not dispensed from the first third of the soap arch. The intense water spray helped but the entire back side of my car was dirty. Perhaps something could be adjusted or maybe I should get the attention of a manager next time. Convenient, yes. Thorough, not exactly.
