Was in midtown and called to see if they had time to take a drop in for a smog check. Owner Lemar answered the phone and was so friendly and welcoming. He said I could come by and would only wait a few mins, as finishing up with another customer. He gave me a quote over the phone and offered their promotion for $20 off (which they offer on their website). Very reasonably priced! I was in and out in about 20mins. Quick service, professional and friendly! Definitely coming back for my next smog check. read more

Great responsiveness and prompt service. Easy in and out with no issues. Highly recommended!

I definitely recommend! These guys are very nice and cordial with great customer service. The smog test and results were so fast and efficient, as soon as I sat down to wait, I was being told it was done! Great price too! read more

Really nice man treated me very well. In and out quickly for about $54! Five stars for sure!

Over the top kindness, quickness, and great pricing. Available to schedule via text, overall great experience!

Midtown smog-- not 5 star certified (yet) they are working on it! Drove in on my lunch break to get it smogged because my car was so overdue! The guy was so nice and it took probably only 13 minutes! He also put air in my tires and informed me of an important recall with my battery! It was $65 dollars! I think it was so expensive due to a fine from the dmv for not getting it smogged back in November... or I got ripped off! But whatever, I'm just glad it's over with' They have a nice little waiting area with water, a candy bowl and appeared to be a mini fridge! read more

Easy and quick. They keep it simple. Theres a coupon on Yelp. Necessary but painless.

Midtown Smog was quick and reasonably priced. Make sure to check their website for a coupon. I input my contact info and they contacted me the same day to schedule my smog appointment. The shop is located on the corner of S and 16th Streets, you can enter from either street. The staff were very friendly and DMV received the smog results the same day. I waited at the shop, it took maybe 20 minutes. If you don't want to wait at the shop, there are at least 3 coffee shops in the area. Midtown Smog has great service, and great prices. read more

Midtown Smog is small and very unassuming - it is right on the corner of S and 16th Street (left hand side), and if you aren't paying attention, you will miss it! Do not expect any bells and whistles when visiting - but expect good service and pricing. they are very flexible in terms of appointment times and will have you in and out within 20 min or so. Lemar was very nice, helpful and efficient. A $49 smog is a pretty good deal these days! I highly recommend them if you are in need of quick and reliable service. read more

He responded quickly to my message. There was a deal so got a great discount for the service. I arrived early and got me in early. He was quick and efficient doing smog and explained I failed cuz I didn't drive enough miles after changing battery. He was super nice about everything. I highly recommend this place. Also they give a decent amount of time to come back for your one free retest if you failed. Great service here read more

Good price for a regular smog test. After communicating to me that my vehicle passed, he briefly explained a recall on that model, what it was for, & how it affected the vehicle. Got me in & out in about 20 minutes. Would go there again. read more

Very professional and fast service. Good service!!! I would recommend this shop. He was done in just 10 to 15 while I went to get a coffee... read more

Just bought a car from Nevada. Despite it being a 2023 Hybrid CA wanted me to smog it. Wanted to get it done asap and the place I usually go was closed. Midtown smog was open earliest on a Sunday so I decided to check them out. The owner Lamar was working and he's definitely a cool dude. Top quality customer service from him. He was professional and knowledgeable. Kept my car clean and got it done quickly. All for under $50 so I couldn't be happier. Likely be my go to smog spot now! read more

Midtown Smog was the first to answer my yelp call for assistance and I am glad that they were the ones that I went with. After a quick call with the technician, I was able to set up a same day appointment and the service was done before I could finish my matcha at Scorpio Cafe (highly recommended as well) across the street! All this done for less than $55! read more

Wonderful to do business with, prompt with responses on yelp and fair pricing. Would come here again.

I was in and out within 15 minutes. Easy peasy. The price seemed very reasonable. Highly recommend for smog checks.

I came in for smog and Lemar helped me, as soon as I walked out of my car I felt the hospitality he offered some snacks, he had us take a seat and he even offered to pour us a cup of water, even though it was two steps away, and I could've easily done that myself. Lemar then proceeded to have a genuine conversation that didn't feel like "elevator talk" all while taking care of the smog. He was so friendly and so nice that I even forgot that I was there for the smog, before I knew it, We were already done! Lemar also gave me tips as my car was approaching 100,000 miles to best preserve its lifespan which I could tell was coming from a place of being genuine and authentic and was looking out for me. I did not expect this kind of service from a smog shop. I am beyond grateful and impressed at Midtown smog. 100/10 recommend. read more

I needed to get the smog done for my car and reached out to Yelp for assistance and decided to go with Midtown smog as they reached out with one of the best quotes that was fairly close to me.

I found Midtown Smog using Yelp. They responded very quickly and were offering an inspection at a great rate. I was able to schedule an appointment for a mutually agreeable time, and when arrived, they were ready and waiting for me. Don't let the traffic and parking situation in midtown deter you - the shop has a very large parking lot. There is a waiting area with water, but don't bother getting too comfortable because the inspection was done in less than 15 minutes. After a quick tap to pay, I was on my way. Give these folks a shot, you won't be disappointed. read more

Perfect- great price and service, in and out in only a few minutes. I couldn't have asked for a better value.

Great customer service and quality service, had me in and out 10/10 would definitely return for next smog test. Thanks Midtown Smog

I stopped by with no appointment. Lamar was working all by himself and had other customers he was helping, and yet he greeted me immediately, and helped me through the process, as I've never taken my car to be smogged before. He got my smog done so quickly and was very friendly. 10/10 customer service. And he was cute too. read more

Had me in and out in like 10 minutes. Friendly staff, and price was the best out of all the places that got back to me.

Fast and easy. Was able to set up an appointment ahead of time. Price was right! Will use again!

Midtown Smog does RV's!!! A unicorn of smog stations as most can not or will not do RV/motorhomes of any sort. It is getting impossible to find a station that does motorhomes... if I had a dime for every station that says they don't do them or worse, advertise that they do till you show up to make an appointment and THEN they tell you they don't actually smog motorhomes. Very frustrating... Then there is MIdtown... communicated via Yelp and was very responsive to all queries... even though I was getting to be a pain as I'd been conditioned to disbelieve. Believe it... they to motorhomes. On day of appt Matt hooked everything and proceeded to test... came back in a bit with 'good news bad news' Good news was it passed, bad was that because they have not quite received star rating he could not certify. Turned out CARB had changed the weight class of my rig and it now requires a Star station to smog... never told me or had it on the reg renewal. Matt didn't charge me and offered what he knew about where I might go... Great guy Matt... I've decided to wait for Midtown to get the Star rating, hopefully before Feb '25 and bring her back then. For my other two cars Midtown is now my go to... Thank Matt!! read more

Fast and efficient service--took only 15 minutes! The price included an electronic certificate, which they sent directly to the DMV. Highly recommend! read more

Great Service, quick and easy smog test. The smog technician was efficient. Price was fair

Came across this place on Yelp and gave them a call for a quote. The owner, Lemar, was great and gave an incredible deal since he just opened up. Was in and out of the shop within 15 minutes. Great customer service from him and his team! read more

Been to a few smog shops but this by far is the best one. Great customer service and smooth experience. Definitely my new go-to spot!

I went in during my lunch break. They had me in/out before I could even finish my burrito! Make sure you make an appointment first. There is a discount if you do. Current grand opening promo is $49 with certificate for any yelp customer! My new Smog go to place for all my vehicles. read more
