I went in for a lesson on May 1. The man who gave me the lesson, I assume Andrew, was very knowledgeable. Unfortunately, like a lot of teachers, he seemed to assume I knew basic info which I didn't. I tried to slow him down somewhat. If you go there, please ask him to start from the very beginning in teaching. read more

Andrew is absolutely the best! I have gone there twice, once for a really big issue. Not only did he fix the computer both times quickly and thoroughly, but he kept me updated the whole time, with his typical New Yorker, no B/S manner, which I can relate to. If you need anything done to your computer, this is definitely the place to go. You won't be disappointed. read more

Thanks to loco 4 tech, I'm able to play my games again, I recently bought a new heat sink for my pc and installed it, and when I tried to boot it up, it was a black screen, I had no idea what the problem was, I took it to numerous people, but none of them could fix the problem, until I brought it to loco 4 tech, they fixed it in no time, and only charged 70 bucks! Other places were going to charge over 100 For this, I'm glad I brought my pc to loco 4 tech, I recommend this place if you have any problems with your pc! read more

Honestly fantastic service. Brought my laptop that my sis spilled water on and they fixed it for a great price and above all fantastic service and very very professional. Don't forget to buy the cups and custom things the kids make. read more

Andrew and his wife are a wonderful team. I came in with an Alienware PC that stopped turning on. Andrew diagnosed the problem quickly. Turns out, the GPU video card failed and we had to get a new one installed. He walked me through the options and I ordered one from Amazon, shipped it to their shop, and it was installed and ready for me to pick up the same day it was delivered. Overall, very satisfied with the customer service and quick turnaround. Highly recommended. I will come back to the shop with any future upgrades or troubleshooting. read more

I'm very computer illiterate so when my work computer stopped working, I was definitely tripping out. I called up loco and was able to have them diagnose my computer same day, right away. Andrew and Theresa took care of me and explained what was going on. Turned out that something happened to the hard drive and they were able to fix the problem fairly quickly and for a reasonable price. The only issue was That we all prematurely thought everything from the old hard drive had been recovered when in fact, only about 1% of it had been recovered. That's probably my fault though as i should have either checked before leaving or told them exactly how much crap i had on the drive. Regardless, customer service is great and I wouldn't hesitate going back for computer issues. Still need to go pick up the old hard drive but other than that, i hope I never have to go back! read more

Mom n pop computer repair spot. Always friendly, fair with pricing, and have gone above and beyond each time I've used their services. These two are nerds for tech in all the best ways. Also... They just added a game lounge with Oculus VR! Pretty sweeeeet. read more

The best little place to get your laptop or lapbottoms fixed. These guys fixed it for me man, I broke it, chocked it and smoked it and theses guys resurrected my computer from the dead man! read more

Best people around. Very down to Earth and extremely knowledgeable about everything. I had a satanic issue with my Rig and Andrew must have out dozens of hours into the diagnoses. He charged me for a PC build and saved me tons of money. Give them your business and you will not be sorry. -H read more

Absolutely love this place. I first discovered them when I was having issues with my android phone, and I called and spoke with Andrew extensively. He gave me some extremely expert advice after discussing the issues I was having, and I knew I would return again when I needed repairs for phones or computers. Fast forward a couple of years and I have consistently gone to their shop whenever I have any sort of computer issue - be it replacing a hard drive or fixing/removing bugs etc. Super knowledgeable, super friendly, and always very reasonable with what they charge. I'll be returning here for any and all tech repairs in the future. read more

Changed out the DVD-rom in my desktop, couldn't get it to reboot. Tried a number of things but it was late, I was tired, so I put it to sleep and brought it to Andrew the next morning. While we were at the counter inspecting it he realized I had accidentally unplugged the hard drive. Duh. Word of warning - don't attempt computer repairs when you're half asleep, lol. Then we chatted for a while about things I could do to upgrade my computer experience. Amazingly, he reused to let me pay him, saying he "didn't do anything." Yes he did - he made a lifelong fan in a city where many try to rip you off for things they DIDN'T do! So I tipped him for his time. Andrew gives good, solid advice and is a straight-shooter. His wife and pup are great people, too. read more

Honest guy I was recommended to him by someone. I had a question about my beats that are not currently working! I call Loco 4 Tech and he was very knowledgeable on asking my questions. I'm definitely going to call him about my PC. Thank you. I highly recommend if you have any tech questions. read more

Theresa and Andrew are awesome! Thanks for continuously saving me!! I've gone to them for many things, starting from my iPhone screen to when I rush in with a coffee spill on my computer, they work miracles. Highly recommended! read more

Good work, good prices! Got my MacBook Pro fixed here. They gave me a quote and I did source the part myself and they changed it for me charging the labor only. Total saving: $135 from the MacHollywood price! read more

I wish I could review Loco 4 Tech even higher. I've used them for problems with my custom PC on multiple occasions. All the employees are extremely personable and knowledgeable. They feel like friends almost immediately. One of my computer problems was quite advanced and there was no easy solution. The owners worked with me with several-times a day updates for days until the problem was fixed, and there was no additional charge even though they had to spend more time on it than anticipated. Andrew chalked it up as a "learning experience" for himself. I wish all local businesses could be like this one! read more

This place is INCREDIBLE. The couple working there are so incredibly nice and realistic. I looked for a few places online to fix my 1TB external hard drive (my drive continuously said "not accessible" and "need to format"). I requested a quote from them and I got a quick response. They said they can fix my hard drive for $65!!! I already requested a quote from other tech places- the prices were in the hundreds. The people here don't wave high prices in your faces or try to sell you anything. There weren't any gimmicks or tricks they were trying to pull on me which really put me at ease, I was afraid I was going to spend like $300. BUT they spoke to me honestly and truthfully which I appreciated, so I gave them my external hard drive. Anyways, fast forward to three days later and I get a call saying my external hard drive needs to have physical work done on it and they, unfortunately, can't do much at that point. Theresa (the owner) then recommended me a place in Studio City and told me how much I might spend at that shop and what I should look for. They also told me if the prices were too steep that I can just save up money and bring in my drive whenever into the Studio City shop. I'm a broke college student so I guess my family pictures are gonna have to wait a little before I can have them restored. They then told me that I didn't have to pay since they couldn't do much for my hard drive. In the end, I paid nothing but got incredible and realistic information- AND MORE IMPORTANTLY peace of mind. So yes I didn't get anything truly, 100% fixed, but I also didn't pay a crazy consultation fee and I DID get super helpful information. The people here truly are amazing and don't try to scam you, they're upfront and tell you the facts unlike a lot of tech places. Overall a positive experience. read more

Words can even BEGIN to say how grateful I am to you guys! You always come through for me in a pinch, all of your work has been A+++ quality, and I simply enjoy you as people! Thank you AGAIN for your help today! read more

Please be aware when having your computers repaired at this location to block all your user IDs and passwords. I had 2 laptops serviced recently a business and a personal one. Unfortunatley I unknowningly left everything open and available to be stolen. When I checked out I was asked if I had chase quick pay to pay the fee for the repairs. I typically use venmo but they were not set up with venmo. The wife (not sure of her name) saw me add their info on my chase quick pay and I paid for my repairs. A few weeks later I get a call and email notice (see email from Chase) that a suspicious transaction has been blocked. It was a chase quick pay payment of $4100 to Loco 4 Tech. Thank goodness it was blocked. I called to notify loco 4 tech they were very upset and were obvisously not going to admit any wrong doing. Lesson learned block everything. For what is worth the repairs tonthe laptop were done to my satisfaction but there is clearly a break in their security and you will and can be hacked. BUYER BEWARE! read more

Loco 4 Tech - Email Notice of Fraudulant transaction blocked by Chase. - IT Services & Computer Repair Near Me - Los Angeles, California

Love this place, and the owners are awesome. Second time I come here (first time-Hard drive crashed, they transferred all info into new computer, second time-forgot password to my computer which was an obsolete computer, they helped me with it). They explain all that they're doing, reasonable prices, and they're just cool/nice people. Also, all about supporting a local business. Would recommend in a second. read more

Used to love this place, but I was treated with a lot of condescension last time I was there, and had to another place nearby to find out the harddrive they sold me was 1) Old, 2) Low quality, 3) Didn't work, 4) and that my old drive did work. The new shop is trying to see if they can recover my files, but i'm really aggravated I was sold a non-working piece of crap "upgrade", and the owner was such a jerk last time that I don't want to go back even to complain. read more

That's how an ideal computer repair shop should be. I came here with a very unique and challenging problem. I'm not a best friend with tech. However, the owner was explaining everything to me like I was a 5-year-old. In a good way. Caring and understanding. Not a sign of disregard. If you have a tech related problem and don't want to feel stupid that you can't fix it yourself. Andrew is your man. read more

I can't rate these guys high enough. Had a problem with my 2012 Mac Pro - it was one of those 'could be a range of things' problems and it being a mac, hard to diagnose. I took it down to Andrew, he went through the machine piece by piece, gave me options to problem solve while keeping the cost down. All up he spent quite a bit of time on it. In the end, once we identified the problem (MB!), it was going to be a pricey fix so I elected to buy a new machine and trade off the old one for parts. Andrew didn't even charge me for the time he had spent on the machine. Seriously great service, seriously good people. read more

This place is just beyond amazing! I have had my MacBook Pro for many years and it has never given me any issues until my track pad completely stopped working. I realized it was the battery and I needed to get that replaced. Long story short, it was 10 pm and this was urgent, I reached out to local computer repairs and compared the prices. Loco 4 Tech was so quick and efficient that they placed an order for my battery right there and then. I went in Friday, it took less than 10 minutes to replace and it's brand new, again. Thanks for the exceptional customer service and honesty that you provide to your clients. read more

i thought my 10 year old Dell desktop was done. I couldn't see anything on the screen. I called Loco 4 Tech and the woman said if I bring it in, they will try to diagnose while I waited. The next day, I took my computer to their place. Andrew was very knowledgeable and friendly. He determined that my video card had gone bad and that if I connected my monitor directly to the built-in port, instead of the video card, I don't need any further repairs. All I needed was a $6 cable to connect the monitor to the CPU directly. I also had a loud noise coming from the computer - as if the hard drive was about to break down. Andrew said it was because all the vents were clogged due to excessive dust. No sales pitch, no pressure, and definitely no false diagnoses to sell unnecessary service. I was running Windows XP on that computer which I wanted to upgrade. And I wanted some backup solution since the computer contained old tax data from past many years. Andrew installed Windows 7 for $85 and some sort of backup software for $25. He charged me $25 to copy all my files from the computer to the external HDD which I provided. He said the computer will be ready for pickup the next day. He called me the next day and asked me if I can pick up the following day instead ... an example of good communication. He even asked me what peripherals I was using with this computer so he can download the drivers for me, which he did. Good service. Honest people. Reasonable prices. What more can I ask for! Oh yeah, I mentioned the Yelp discount and he promptly adjusted the price. Thank you Loco 4 Tech. read more

Thank you Theresa and Andrew here at Loco 4 Tech! Brought my MacBook here as well as my desktop and they were able to fix both of my issues, very fast, professionally and for an unbeatable price! They also went out of their way to make sure my desktop had the same settings as before. Definitely would recommend Loco 4 Tech! Six stars for them! read more

I was in a bind and needed my laptop repaired ASAP. Great service and great price, same day turnaround with no extra charge. Will definitely be coming here for all my computing needs. This place is awesome. read more

Totally obsessed with this place!! I came here for a hardware Mac repair; being a previous Dell fanatic Mac was an intimidating new animal for me; after having many issues with my new laptop and being utterly frustrated with Apple's lack of customer service I stumbled onto Loco for Tech when I was driving back from a business meeting. I decided to stop in and give it a try - not expecting much besides another overly quoted price tag for a problem that I didn't understand. When I came in my experience was the opposite of my pessimistic expectation. The owners Andrew and Theresa, are awesome to the tenth power- totally honest, straight to the point and the best part is they won't just fix your technology/problem they will coach and teach you how to avoid any future issues, etc. When they quoted me I almost felt guilty since Apple quoted me four times the amount for a repair that was their responsibility in the first place. This place is AWESOME- it doesn't hurt that the owners are totally cool, brilliant and 100% authentic! read more

I had a piece fallen off my laptop, and he quickly fixed it and didn't charge me :D Good man...

Most amazing store in LA the owners are so cool came from New York just to see what people are talking about and it's amazing. They sit and work with you and explain what the real problems are not like these chains stores that all they want you to do is charge u a ridiculous amount of money for a small issue and then weeks later it doesn't work. I highly recommend this local computer store. read more

I'm fairly technically savvy, but I've used this shop several times to assist me with jobs that are giving me trouble. They've always been successful, and their prices are very reasonable. The most recent visit which sparked this review is in regards to a new SSD I was trying to install in my laptop. The problem I was having was very dumb, and he was able to spot it within 5 minutes over the counter. Recognizing that I'm a repeat customer, he didn't charge me for this experience. It's a small shop, manned by a man/woman family. You get the feeling of a personal connection, and they seem to care about their work read more

These guys are amazing!!! Family owned business that knows what they are doing and gets the job done quickly and efficiently! Finally! A business that cares about their customers and their needs and are quite reasonable! I'm a bit technically challenged in some ways, but Theresa and Andrew were both very kind and patient with my questions and also really know their stuff!!! Just finally set up my computer after having it upgraded and tuned by Loco 4 Tech,, had old files from other computers uploaded as well and this baby works like a charm! The speed is incredible Who knew!! Well, they did! I definitely recommend them if you're looking for the best computer repair locale, we need to support good businesses that still care!! Thank you guys for being here in LA! BEST!!!! read more

Just wanted to follow up my previous review. Life is funny, I ran into the wife of the owner of this business at my job. She recognized me and apologized for my experience. That is all that I wanted in the first place. She is a big person to do that and I really respect that. Best wishes for your businesses success. read more

Just had these guys at Loco4Tech remote into my computer and help me when I thought I was in big trouble. Turns out I let some bad company log into my computer (they tricked me) and they tried to make me pay them 300 plus to get the lock removed. "Scammers" I found these guys from a friend and when I called them up nothing but help and directions. Needless to say they got me all fixed up quick! No more lock on my computer and they did all this remotely from LA! Thank you so very much Theresa and team! read more

Incredible Service and the owners are a pleasure to deal with !! Communication is top notch - so happy I don't have to try and communicate with the nerds at the last computer repair shop I used to go to. My laptop crapped out on me recently and they helped me pick out a new one to purchase, then installed all the software I needed, and cleaned up the laptop to make it run smooth and easy. Couldn't be happier with these guys. I come to them for all of my computer issues ! read more

Theresa is awesome...precise, friendly and a keen trouble-shooter...I urge anyone with computer problems to support this neighborhood business... read more

Where to start. The owners/techs of this place are amazing. Not only are they extremely personable and friendly, boy do they know their stuff. Needed to recover a lot of data (about a terabyte) from a non functional hard drive. Not only did these guys get my stuff copied out and onto my computer, they did in in exceptional time. Cannot recommend this little tech/gaming lounge/ business center enough. Even had a great talk with Andrew and Theresa about the new virtual reality system Oculus Rift that they will have available in their gaming lounge. Can't wait! This place is a Hollywood gem. read more
