    This was my first booking (definitely won't be the last) with Ride on Drive and the process was simple and convenient!! The detailer Michael, arrived on time and really spent a great effort in ensuring I was satisfied with the service. My car has never been cleaner. I went with the Gold package and was incredibly happy with the results. The clay bar made my car silky smooth afterwards. Inside and out are completely spotless and immaculate. I couldn't be happier!!!! Truly feels like a brand new car. Thank you so much for such a great service. Very affordable and great value. Give them a try, you will not be disappointed!!!

    I had a great experience with Ride on Drive. It was my first time getting my car detailed (interior only) and they were very responsive when I was shopping around for a quote. Wally serviced my Prius and did a fantastic job! He took his time and the end results are great. My main concerns were getting rid of the dog hair and doggy odor and he delivered. I'd be happy to recommend him and Ride on Drive for ease, quality and excellent communication.

    Tldr: Wally is the best! His work is amazing! This is the first time I had my car detailed. I was always cheap about car washing and a little dirt in the floor never bothered me. But since moving to downtown SF, I could not find a convenient drive through car wash like Lozano's in the South Bay and Peninsula. So my call to Ride On Drive was initially reluctant. But I completely changed my mind! The technician who worked in my car was Wally. He drove a well cared for Acura that had been modified for racing and told me he would take his car to a car show the next day. I could tell this was someone who really liked cars. I was amazed at the water-free solution he used to clean my car. When he first told me he did not need water I was concerned about scratches. The solution he used removed all the gunk and dirt without scratching. It left a water repellent surface. So when it rained the next day I did not have any water stains! I was also impressed at the interior of the car. It was vacuumed clean and felt like a new car. I attached a picture so you can all see! Every nook and corner was thoroughly cleaned. I think it was cleaner than when I got it from the dealer! Ride on Drive is much more expensive than Lozano's but worth it. When you call them, try to get Wally. Wally is someone who will take care of your car. He definitely knows about cars and how to care for them. If you need your car to look and feel like a new car, definitely check them out!

    Highly recommend their service. I had a passenger that vomited in my car and as much as I tried to clean it, the leather was perforated. I gave Ride On Drive a call (you can make an appointment online) and after explaining what happened and showing them pictures of my car they were able to set up an appointment by text. Wally, my detailer, showed up to my place exactly on time. He was friendly, communicative and it was reassuring to know he did detailing for showroom cars. I booked the tier 2 Interior Detailing and he said it would take 2 hours so I waited inside while he worked his magic. Around 2hrs later he let me know he was finished and I was more than satisfied. There were no remains of the throw up and the entirety of the interior was spotless. I would definitely recommend them to others and next I have to try their exterior detailing.

Fast forward 4 years later to 2026, I purchased a Lexus Convertible recently and needed my windows tinted. I went on Yelp to start a project and Danny was the first to reach out to me hella quick! It didn't dawn upon me when pulling up to the parking lot and realizing I've been here before with my BMW. I remember Gena as soon as I walked in...I know he sees a lot of people on a daily basis so I know he probably doesn't remember me, but I gave him a refresher just in case about my previous vehicle and of course he's friendly and professional as he always is. I also got to meet Danny in person. Mind you my Lexus was kinda tricky to work on since it's a convertible and Danny was very honest saying it can be complicated and it's either take the risk or forget about it. I knew I had faith in Danny and trusted him as well as the other employee (whose name I didn't get). Gena even went above and beyond going the extra mile offering water as I waited in the seating area which I thought was very generous. I was pleased the way the service turned out. I DEFINITELY recommend Grizzly Style and will come back when it's time to get my future next car tinted. If I can add an extra star to this review I would, because it's the silly slap on the hand like im a 5 year old "DO NOT ROLL DOWN " sticker for me that Danny put onto the window switch as a reminder to prevent damage to the tint post installation. Because you know, common sense But THANK YOU Danny, Gena and the other guy!

I wasn't just looking for a basic clean: I wanted a deep, intentional transformation of my car. Inside and out. Its been YEARS. I had contacted a few different places, but Lim immediately stood out. The way he communicated, his responsiveness (thougutful, caring, considerate), was really meaningful. Even though his portfolio mostly features higher-end luxury vehicles, he didn't make me feel out of place. If anything, he understood what I was trying to do and genuinely wanted to meet me there! The booking process was easy. He walked me through what to expect, and we started sharing photos back and forth. He even pointed out things like chipped paint and small areas of rust that he could help improve--things I hadn't fully considered. And I didn't know could be accomplished (thought I had to go to other shops, etc). Before I even met him in person, I already felt a sense of trust. When I dropped off my car, he did a full walkthrough and pointed out details I didn't initially notice. His quote felt fair, and more importantly, it felt honest. Throughout the process, he kept me updated with progress photos, which I honestly loved! I felt like I was part of the process: getting little previews of something I was really excited about. By the time pickup day came around, I already knew it was going to be special. But seeing it in person was something else. He walked me through everything they did--inside and out. Some areas needed extra care, and he clearly put in that effort. The inside reminded me like when I first got my car. The ceramic coating added that final layer of protection. And he even took the time to recommend other places if I wanted to continue restoring certain parts of the car. All of his recommendations have been stellar, kind, and Im proud to say I was recommended by Lim. What really stood out to me is that he treated my car with the same level of respect and attention as the high-end vehicles he usually works on. He even mentioned that it reminded him of when he first started--when someone is truly invested in transformation. And that's exactly what this experience felt like! Driving my car afterward didn't just feel like driving a clean car--it felt like a reset. It felt empowering. Like stepping into something new. That's exactly what I needed. Lim is not only incredibly skilled at what he does, he's also just a genuinely good human being. You can tell this is someone who cares deeply about his craft and about people. I honestly wish I could give more than five stars. His work speaks for itself! Attaching photos of how shiny, like mirror/glass, the ceramic coating and shine my car has! Thank you Lim/Detailed by Precision!

If you own a Tesla or any high-end car and care about quality, this is absolutely the place to go. Joe, the owner, is always welcoming and clearly pours his passion into the business. You can tell immediately how much he values his team. He treats his staff like family, and it shows in their work. Everyone there genuinely enjoys what they do, and they really do live up to the "OCD" name when it comes to attention to detail. I learned the hard way that not all highly rated Yelp shops deliver real quality. After going to another popular place, a friend pointed out several issues in the work that I had completely missed. Never again! I would much rather pay for top-tier service and have peace of mind than worry about fixing problems later. Most recently, I had a front PPF and tint done on my Tesla, and the results were flawless. OCD Detailing is one of the few places capable of tinting the entire Tesla roof using a single piece, with no seams, and it looks incredible. They were also kind enough to help install hub caps I purchased separately and recommended a great source for blacked-out emblems. My car turned out beautiful. The only downside is that I live in San Francisco, so the drive is a bit out of the way, but it was absolutely worth it. I recommend OCD Detailing to all my friends whenever they're looking for high-quality PPF or tinting. If you care about your car, this is where you take it.

The quality of everything was excellent, from the customer service to the actual work done! At other car-related companies that are male-dominated, I have experienced patronizing and borderline insulting service. At OCDetailing, they treated me like a normal/valuable customer. I hadn't read reviews in advance, so I was pleasantly surprised that they ordered and paid for my Uber. This place is expensive, and there is a weeks-long wait to get work done, but they will not settle for anything less than perfection. They even scheduled a follow-up appointment to check their work. The 5 stars are well earned!

Literally his words, and he delivered on them completely. What set him apart was the depth he went to. He could've just wiped things down and called it a day, but instead he pulled the front seat out to find and clean milk residue that had seeped underneath the rubber mat. He used a leather soft-fill compound to repair a burn hole in the seat headrest and repainted it to match. He restored my foggy headlights until they looked factory fresh. He revived the faded exterior plastic trim. And through all of it, he kept me updated constantly, explaining exactly what he found, what he recommended, and why, with zero pressure. I really appreciate how communicative he is with his clients, it's one of my favorite things to look out for when trying out a business for the first time, and he delivered. His pricing is fair and transparent. That kind of integrity is rare. If your car needs love, take it to Paul. You won't regret it. I showed up to drop off my car extremely stressed out. It was one of those moments where I realized, yeah I haven't shown this car some love in yearsss, and I am happy I trusted Paul to bring it back to life!
