I brought a car we just purchased to Winnetka Smog and during the prior owner's service they cleared the codes so it couldn't be smogged yet. They were very helpful and provided me my receipt so that I could just come back and have it properly small ones I had driven the appropriate miles to reset all the codes so it could be small very easy to get in and out for a quick small when you're in a pinch, just make sure your coats haven't been cleared. read more

Got a smog check. The young man and woman were very nice. They were efficient and reasonably priced. Parking can be a bit tough due to other businesses. But I went early in the day and had no problem parking. read more

This is a small family operated business that for now only does smog tests. It's totally walk-in and they took me immediately. Fifteen minutes later the test was done and I was on my way. Very efficient and very friendly personnel, will be back there in 3 years for my next test. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!!! read more

Glad to know the other brother, Alex, took over the business and that's why you still get the same great and fast service from them. Shoutout to Joann (receptionist) for being so helpful and courteous! read more

The other reviews I read on Yelp were right on. Eddie took good care of me. He was professional, courteous, efficient and the price was good. I would definitely recommend. Side note- The parking lot is shared with a few other businesses and is fairly small and pretty tight making the corners. I did not have any issues with my mid size SUV but would be cautious if bringing in a large sized vehicle. read more

Went last minute without an appointment and got in right away 30 min to closing. They honored my Valpak coupon price and got me out of there within 15 min. There's a waiting room on the side where they test your car or you can sit on the bench if it's full inside. They usually have their STAR certified rating but still waiting on it for this year. Maybe will get that in a month or two from this review? Very nice and professional. They take credit and Apple Pay if you are wondering. read more

Has reserved parking space for the smog. Quick and excellent customer service. Coupon on ValPak. It's totally worth coming here, no hassle. The guy asks for the DMV paperwork, the keys to the vehicle. He suggests that you could sit inside the small 4 - 5 chair office or on the bench against the wall. He's done within 15 minutes. Prints out a copy of the smog check, lets you know that it was sent electronically to the DMV. Pay and off you go. Great service, fast, and no hassle. I will recommend. read more

Easy to work with, quick, on top of things, good value. Just did a normal smog check for DMV renewal.

Smog checks are never fun. But this was straight forward. Easy. Clean shop. And friendly service.

First time doing a smog check since my move. It was very speedy. The guy who did it was also very informative. Took about 15 minutes.

I have been taking my car here for about 3 yrs now and couldn't recommend it more. The owner is nice and does a thorough job. Quick and efficient, my car has passed smog check and I'm on my way. Thank you Winnetka Smog! read more

I've been going here for the past few years with my cars. Very throughly and fast. Great owner, I highly recommend Winnetka Smog.

Although there's a 'Star certified' banner hanging at this place, told us they actually aren't Star certified and therefore couldn't smog our car. read more

Provender: another great smog check with Winnetka Smog. As with most things, you want someone reliable and trustworthy when it comes to car maintenance and related issues. I highly recommend the folks over at Winnetka Smog and Brake. The process was relatively quick (about ten minutes). They also have a waiting area. Prices: very competitive. It seems like other places charge more for the same service that Winnetka Smog offers. Parking: there are at least two dedicated spots in the U shaped parking lot. I recommend traveling north on Winnetka Ave., then entering the first driveway, which brings you round about to their unit. They are the northern most unit, closest to the street. People: automobile owners. Perks: Eddie was very personable and a professional. I had an excellent customer service experience. Winnetka Smog is located in auto plaza with various other facilities. The auto plaza is across the street from Churches Chicken, so you can swing by after and get your fried chicken on. There's also a post office, a little north of the location. read more
