My Google map brought me to this being the closest car wash on my drive to work. A little sketch but I stopped. The posted billboard prices are kinda high for a basic get the dirt off my car kinda wash. I asked him foe the cheapest and the receipt says $17.99 on a Tuesday morning so that's totally doable for a wash, vaccuum, tire dressing. The location has a Mexican food place inside and a window tint as well. The womans bathrooms are usable if you don't touch anything and squat. They sell a few overpriced car items like wheel covers and carseat covers. I deducted a star for the wait to check in the car, wait to pay at the cashier. I deducted a star for the unsanitary establishment as a whole. The upside is the covered dry dock so I hopefully will not have sun water marks on my Buick paint job. Each car looks like it gets a single dryer guy which is nice to avoid multiple tipping. Like are they required to pool the tipping together? Anywho, satisfactory job since my Buick was dusty and just wanted a quick wash on my way to work.

This is my favorite place to get my car washed. All the workers are very nice and hard working. If you catch their early bird special, which is Mon-Thurs 8-11am, you can get a regular wash for $10.99 that includes vacuum and hand dry and an air freshener or tire shine!! They do a good job wiping your inside and outside for just the regular wash! Pros: -Early Bird special -nice service -stamp card! Buy 9 washes, get the 10th free! -very nice workers all around -shading area to hand dry your car -never too crowded in the AM -they don't expect tip, but I give anyway! A dollar goes a long way! Cons: -none!

Star car wash does a great job in leaving your car clean and sparkly. I highly recommend this car wash for early bird washers. They open at 7 am on fridays and Saturdays! The guys that vacuum your car do the best job. The car wash is mostly busy but they are very fast and efficient. Very satisfied with STAR. M-th 8 am to 6pm Fri-Sat 7 am-7pm Perfect for the busy weekend schedule!!

Out of so many car wash in this county this has to be on of the top ones if not the top one in my opinion! Customer services is on point All the employees are nice and HARD workers. Best part about is the prices can't be them. Thirsty, hungry, or just simply wanna be a fatass they got it all here. Big category of accessories for your Vehicle to.

I wish I had my own towel so I can wipe it down myself.

The waiting line was great, I was the only car there at 10:30 am on wed morning. This was my first time there so I got the standard basic wash for $21.99. I would suggest next time to avoid the basic wash because apparently they do not wipe down the car in detail. The lady that I gave the tip to said with broken english that no mas. I asked her to wipe down a couple of areas that was still dirty and she didnt want because she pointed that I bought the basic wash. They vaccum and out your car through auto wash machine and all they had to do is do a through dry down and wipe dashboards. However, she feels it was not necessary to wipe clean I guess. I still end up giving her $3 tip and she wiped 1 area only. Dissatisfied customer. Shouldn't they wipe down on dashboards and doors no matter which package I bought?

Just finished the car wash 30 mins ago, Those pictures speak thousand words, will never use their services again,I don't ever know why they still in business

Our first time here. Staff is nice and the establishment looks clean. We brought our truck here and planning on bringing our car. You can't beat the early special Price and check in saver. Thank you

All 4 rims were like this, this was the least dirty.

Couple years ago they used to be amazing, now they are a joke. Terrible job done overall, came here today to get a wash since I was in the area. Paid $30 for a diamond wash. Feels like if a little kid washed this vehicle. The attention to detail they used to have is definitely not there, or the pride of their work. I'm sure they don't care about the yelp reviews, or customers from just looking at them with no responses.

Tuesday morning, quick and friendly service

First time here. Friendly employees, fast service, great price! Basic car wash is $7.99 daily for wash and vacuum! Super impressed because the chevron next door has the typical drive-thru car wash from $7-$10. No brainier to come here. They also have a loyalty card, 10th wash free. Only complaint (cause for 4 stars instead of 5) is can't get cash back at register like other car washes to tip employees. Cashier said were able to in the past, but owner has decided not to. Bad news for hard working employees, if one doesn't have cash. They do have an ATM, but I an not paying a $2.50 service fee + my bank fee (if any). Hope they change this in the near future. Will be back.

See all

The biggest thing I've noticed recently is the change in the team's attitude. Before, whenever I asked for a small favor or wanted them to pay attention to something, I sometimes felt like I was being a pain. Lately though, it's been the complete opposite. The staff are much friendlier, easy to communicate with, and most of them speak great English. They actually listen to what you're asking for and make the effort to get it done. The wash might take a few extra minutes now, but I'd much rather have that if it means they're taking their time and paying attention to the details. As someone who's been coming here for years, I finally feel like my voice is heard and that they genuinely appreciate their monthly members. That kind of customer service is hard to find these days. If you live anywhere in the San Gabriel Valley, I'd definitely recommend checking this place out. I've seen the improvement firsthand, and I hope they keep it up. Keep up the great work, guys!

I've been coming here for about 20 years because they "used" to do a fabulous job on their car…read morewashes. Now mind you, I live 2 blocks from the Alhambra Car Wash on Atlantic & Main, but I always drove out of my way to come here. I bought a booklet for the "Gold" car washes for approximately $300.00, three months before the transfer of ownership. Now if I knew what I know today, I definitely would have not bought them. I wish the cashier who sold me the booklet would have told me about the pending sale and transfer of ownership. I'm giving this review on my most recent visit. On a Wednesday, I arrived seeing that there weren't many cars on the lot awaiting to be detailed at 11:45 a.m. and departed at 1:30 p.m., only to pull my car back onto the lot near the gas pumps to "detail" my car myself. Why? Because when my car came out of the wash dripping with water and soap residue, my car sat in the blaring 102 degree Sun for 40 mins., I finally walked up to the cashier and informed him that no one was tending to my car, he immediately got on the walkie-talkie and 15 minutes later, Jenny started to "detail" my car for 20 mins. Now I'm not faulting her, but the amount of hard water spots that were on my car was out of control. Jenny and I walked around my car, and she dealt with the hard water spots I pointed out with a cheap product that was like diluted Windex to the best of her abilities, until she was summoned by her supervisor to get working on another car. I didn't want her to get in trouble, so I told her to just go because she wasn't having any luck in getting the hard water spots off my car. As I was wiping the water spots off my car by their gas pumps, with my bottle of Chemical Guy's Speed Wipe Quick Detailer Spray (which I always keep in my car, because I like a clean looking car), the lady who used to work the cashier desk walked up to me and asked what was going on. I showed her all the hard water spots on my car, and she was really ashamed of the finished job. I told her, after paying for a car wash, which is $50.00, plus giving a $15.00 tip, I basically paid $65.00 for a crappy carwash. She told me, I know you're a long time customer and have a reputation with the detailers for always giving a good tip, and apologized for the crappy job on my car, which was unacceptable, even to her standards. She said she was going to talk to the new owner's about the many complaints she's been getting lately from customers. Lastly, as I mentioned, I'm giving this review based on my last time there, but honestly, the last 2 car washes were pretty bad, and I had to wipe my car down both times. I just didn't want to give a bad review, but this last time had me truly disappointed and I need the new owners to know what's going on at their establishment, and hopefully work on improving their business. Note to new owners: I know the dynamics regarding the change of the quality of your car washes has A LOT has to do with the ICE raids, and them taking some of your best auto detailers. But if you want to charge Nordstrom prices, get quality detailers and let go your employees who are doing a disservice to your car wash business. I've got 3 "gold" tickets left. Hopefully, my next visit will warrant a new and approved review from me. Thank you.

I understand that drive-through car washes aren't typically the best option, but this was by far the worst experience I've had. You know there's a problem when the attendant tells you, "You can come through again if it's not clean enough." My car wasn't anywhere near filthy to begin with just the usual road dust and some sprinkler water spots from the night before that I wanted to get off. I went with the premium wash, not once, but twice, and somehow still ended up having to wash the car by hand afterward. The spots, dust, and grime were all still there. Honestly, it looked like someone simply sprayed the car with a hose and called it a day. Don't waste your money paying extra for the premium wash. I have a hard time believing the lower tiers would produce any different results. The only difference seems to be how much money you're throwing away. I would highly recommend avoiding this car wash. The results were extremely disappointing, and the entire experience was very unsatisfactory.

He told me he'd actually prefer that I be nitpicky so he could take care of it right then and there. I loved that because it showed me he genuinely cared about making sure I was happy with the results instead of just rushing to finish the job.
