I was greeted through the microphone and they recommended some great options for my car. As soon as I stepped out of my car and into their lobby, I was offered coffee and some other beverages. They had a clean and well put together lobby unlike any other place I've been. The service was great! Before they wrapped up, they brought me out to do a quick run through and offer a couple of suggestions before leaving. They kept it real with me and offered services that the car genuinely needed. I never felt pressured. I also love the report they send you with recommended services so you can keep track! The free vacuum is a great perk as well! Challenging when a lot of people are using them but worth it. Sometimes some vacuums didn't really work so you just had to figure out which ones worked fine. Took my car there a few months ago when I moved back to California and they did a great job!

This family business will treat you like family and I can honestly say that I felt welcomed being in their presence. The work that they pulled off on my car was just amazing.

I just wanted to thank them once more for all of the effort they put in for a broke college student like myself.

Like any terrible relationship, I have the feeling that if I bring up one, small, issue they will utilize that to open a can of worms and take all my money and then I'll leave. ...Wow. That analogy works really well but hits a little hard. ANYWAY. Eastman's has restored my faith in a healthy relationship. Car-wise. I'm working on the other stuff. I have been to this shop a few times because its location is near my work, but I will continue going there because of their honesty, dedication to service, and customer satisfaction. Every time I have been here they have always been AMAZING at being forthright. In one instance, their technicians looked over my vehicle and Larry (the owner) told me that...although they could do the work, to scout around. It may be more cost effective to go to a shop that specializes in what I had going on. (AMAZING. A place that's honest and will take a customer's well-being over a credit card swipe). Another example is when I went there in the morning and asked if they could look at my battery. I could pick up my car later in the d... NOPE. Larry walked out with me. Looked it over. Grabbed a wrench. And fixed my issue within 5 minutes! When I asked the charge he, clearly joking, said, "I dunno...five bucks...?" (I did give him that $5). When my battery acted up again though, he was still there. He ran tests on it. We couldn't find the problem, and he apologize (which - I think it was a fluke...I haven't had an issue since) but he did recharge it for me. He also didn't actively seek to find other areas of improvement. He said there were more tests he could do but said, those take more time and are more expensive. We should see if this was just a one-off (it was) before going through all of that. His shop has probably saved me 100's of dollars. Honesty. Honesty is huge when building a rapport with customers and retention. Of course, quality technicians and work is required and Eastman's has that as well. I don't know much about cars so I can't really speak on technique. I just know this: When I need something fixed.. They fix it. It doesn't mess up again. (or) Eastman's will give me honest answers, recommend other avenues to resolve a problem (and) Charge fairly or just ask for $5.00.

He took the time to listen, ask questions, and really figure out the issue. I expected to leave my car all day, but it was fixed within minutes. He even brought me into the garage to show me exactly what was wrong. I was stressed beforehand because I thought it was going to be an expensive fix, but they didn't charge which was so appreciated and unexpected. We've had a couple of heavy storms since, and not a single drop has leaked in. Problem completely solved, highly recommend! On top of that, when I mentioned to people that I was going to take my car to an auto glass shop, literally everyone said "Make sure you go to All Star", so clearly they have a well deserved positive reputation!

This means that consumers can use Apple Pay, Google Pay, Samsung Pay, Fitbit Pay, etc, without having to go inside the gas station. Although Casey's and Kim and Go have NFC at the registers inside their gas stations, none of them have it at the pump. Right there, that's the way how pumping gas should be done and it shows that at least this Phillips 66 location is committed to the future over not just pumping gas, but paying for items in general.
