I scheduled for 6 hours of instruction, and for 2 of my sessions the driver never called. The first time, I let 15 minutes pass before I called to see what happened. They said that they had the wrong number for me, so I provided them 2 new numbers and rescheduled. Now the second session (what was supposed to be my first session) here I am waiting again, 10 minutes after my session was supposed to start, and I've gotten no call from either number. Very unprofessional and unreliable. I would give 0 stars if I could. What a load of crap. Update: The driver called 30 minutes after the appointment was supposed to start with a whole story about how he couldn't find parking (I live next to a huge parking lot) and that he was running late, and I canceled because communication is key. He could have called me as soon as he saw he would be late. I stand by my rating read more

I had a wonderfull experience with grace driving school..i was recommended by a friend and i must say from grace and her husband they both have been so humble and so supportive.they are very professional and their system is ryt in place. Highly recommend this place. read more

Just horrible. They earned the 1 star because of their will to keep the business going for whatever reason. If you mean to discourage kids, then you shouldn't be willing to teach. Its just dissapointing that I paid this money and for my younger sister to be so discouraged about what the instructor had to say about her. Sorry but they didn't even earn the 1 star that I gave them. Very dissapointing. read more

It was 2014, just moved here and tried this driving school. I think the name of the guy starts with an 'R', grumpy old Filipino guy and I am a Filipino. I thought that would make everything easier but it was otherwise. He was rude. Never learned anything from them and had to go to another school which was more helpful. read more

Shocked out of my mind. First off my driving exam is in less than a month so I figured, though these reviews are a mixture of good and bad, I decided to give this driving school a whirl. ( i have a very tight summer schedule and all the other driving schools that are popular can't seem to accommodate my requests.) So I booked with a nice lady on the phone - very pleasant, she almost seems like my grandma back home. She worked very well with me to try and figure out a schedule that seemed perfect ! She accommodated my Sunday at 8:30am, Thursday at 6 and after that, I told her I'd let her know before my second lesson the next best day that I could schedule for. I'm a late riser but I got up at 8:15 for my 8:30 driving this Sunday morning. I gathered the fee, my ID and my permit. I looked at the time it said 8:35, I scanned the roads to find it clear of all moving vehicles, so I decided that being patient would be the next best thing. (I think less than 10 minutes sometimes even 15 is fine) however standing outside watching the sun and flowers and hearing the birds chirping was lovely but made time feel like It was passing too slowly. Immediately someone answered "Ms. Bryan" -- I was quite shocked but figured of coarse they know I'm a lesson today so I quickly collected myself and answered "Hello", I was hoping to hear something along the lines of "we are running late, but we're on our way" but no-- "Im sorry but Alvin has called in sick and we don't have another driver" - reasonable I thought, although I was still pretty bitter about it. But then He continued "he's been saying he's sick, stomach ache, not feeling well, he's sick" he repeated so I thought -- that sounds like it's been not just been today perhaps other days that "Alvin" has been feeling ill, couldn't they have made back up plans just in case ? I guess I'm just bitter that I have to cancel this driving appointment that I've long anticipated and though I'm reasonably confident that this wouldn't happen again I can't afford to risk it with such a close exam and my busy schedule. Unfortunately I can't rate the driving experience which I think above all else is most important because this experience has turned me sour and I don't think I really want to find out. read more

This is the most unprofessional driving school I've ever encountered. The actual instructor, is awesome. The management is the WORST. 1) They never answer the phones when you need to try and make an appointment. 2) They showed up nearly 40 minutes late for my lesson - no sorry, nothing. I tried calling them a million times and all I received was "they're on the way." 3) On the day for one of my lessons, it was snowing. I figured, obviously, the lesson would be cancelled. I called 5 minutes after my scheduled time for lesson to just make sure and the guy who answered said yes, it's cancelled. I politely asked if they were going to call and let me know if it was cancelled, and he said "No. You should use your head." I'm sorry - is this anyway to speak to someone who is literally PAYING for your services? Despite the actual instructor being great, I will NOT use this company ever again. read more

First of all, I would like to address Blk W.'s other review. I actually had the EXACT OPPOSITE of an experience. Romy is the owner, and Romy's wife, Grace, runs the company very very very well. I began my driving lessons during winter of 2011. I paid the full price for 6 hours, but I became too busy. I did not respond to Grace's calls for over 6 months. They still called me every 2 weeks and left voicemails to reach me. During the summer of 2012, I began my lessons with Gilberto, and he was very nice. Gilberto has taught driving for Grace Driving School for over 20 years, and the experience is obvious. I thoroughly enjoyed all my lessons with him. After my 6 hours, my mother wanted me to practice more (I was perfectly prepared, but there were not enough cars at home for me to practice with my family), and Gilberto continued to teach me. When I started, I found it hard to believe that Grace Driving School has a 99%+ success rate. Now I know why. Besides taking me to the course to practice before the test, Romy (or another teacher) personally "approves" of each student before the student's test. If the student does not look like he/she will pass, they will tell the student and recommend more practice. I highly recommend Gilberto and Romy. (I'm sure the other teachers are great, but I've only had lessons with Gilberto and Romy.) About the lessons: - EXPERIENCE. I thought parallel parking would be difficult, but everytime we practiced, Gilberto and Romy set up the cones perfectly. It looked EXACTLY like the course. They even had their own tricks to pass the test. They not only know how to drive, but they know how to TEACH. - KNOWLEDGE. They know the best highways to practice on in NJ. (Who knew Palisades Parkway and Rt-17 could test different things?) - DMV EXPERIENCE! When I arrived at the DMV to take the test, Romy knew every single instructor, and every single instructor knew Romy. The very fact that the instructors all knew how great Romy's driving school is gave me more confidence. - Finally, most importantly: THEY CARE. My lessons would be only 2 hours, but they would ALWAYS go over at least 30 minutes. Sometimes, my 2 hour lessons would even be 3 hours, and they would only charge me for 2. Also, they picked me up from anywhere and dropped me off anywhere. (Ex. Pick me up from school, drive for 2 hours, drop me off at home) I took my test on December 28th, 2012. I passed with a 100. :) read more

I wish I read the review before I hired these idiots!! Unprofessional.. Payed for the 2 hour review and taking to the test site and the guy overslept.. They never called me and when I called them 30 minutes past the time he was supposed to be here they said they were trying to wake him up!! WT?.. Why are they even in business? read more

This "business" is so unprofessional I can't believe it qualifies as a business. I signed my daughter up for classes with the owner, Roman I believe. We filled out all the paperwork, gave the checks ($300 for the lesson and $10 for the DMV permit fee) and scheduled her lesson. On the first day she was scheduled at 10:30. She waited and waited, finally at 11:30, she called. He said "yea your ss# was incorrect so now you have to go to DMV with your ss card". I got on the phone and asked him why he didn't call me and explain there was a problem, instead of letting my daughter just sit and wait. His response? "That's not my problem and I am keeping the $10 for inconvenience." Being her ss# was correct, and it was an error on his part, I asked him if this was a quick way for him to make $10. He said, "well look at the big mouth on you, you should shut up." I am not quite sure who he thought he was speaking to but I very clearly made him understand I was not to be spoken to like that. He asked, "well what do you want the $10 back?" and I said I definitely did, so he mailed me a check.This "business" is unprofessional, the owner is disrespectful and completely incompetent. Thankfully, we found another local driver school that was a very pleasant experience. I would give Grace zero stars if I could. read more

VERY UNPROFESSIONAL + RUDE 1) The owner of the driving school asked my child what our occupation was and all he talked about was money 2) When my child needed help, he just sat there and did nothing read more

I highly recommend Romy in this driving school. He is the best driving instructor out there. He has been teaching for around 20 years, so he definitely knows what he is doing. I was an awful driver and my parents and friends all believed that I would use public transportation for the rest of my life. But, to my surprise, Romy helped me pass. He is very patient and encouraging. On the day before the test, he took me to Lodi and we practiced just like the exam. He also knew everybody at Lodi, so that helped me calm down before the test. To my surprise, my parallel parking was flawless and I passed! When using this school, request Romy. read more

Don't EVER go to this driving school! They have the most unprofessional, unprepared, inconsiderate, rude, ignorant instructor! My son was not given the 2nd 2-hr appt (after 2 wks) because we needed to let him know when my son was available. When I did call to schedule an appt, AFTER he asked WHEN I WANTED TO MAKE THE APPT, he said he can't do that day and time. WTF?!?! did you ask me for then? DO NOT, I REPEAT, DO NOT EVEN CONSIDER THIS DRIVING SCHOOL! read more

Late, late, always late! When I say late, I don't mean 1 or 5 mins late, I am talking about THIRTY, FOURTY, AN HOUR late. The instructor doesn't even know where your house is!!!! This place is a JOKE. I would give this place NO STAR if I can read more
