    My travel companion is frail and loading her her took extra time, but our driver was patient and helpful. Thanks!

    Bob is extremely reliable. He is totally customer focused. We rely on him regularly.

    Bob was super responsive to both phone and text messages and happily picked me up to take me to the airport before 5AM.

    Would not take us to BART. Only to airport. Have to find cab at ElCerrito Del Norte now.read more

    They didn't show up at the reserved time, and I had to scramble to get a cab, and almost missed my…read moreflight! I decided to use this service because of the positive reviews on Yelp. I called five days prior to my early-morning flight. I got a voice mail and left a message, and within moments I got a call back from a very polite and professional man. So far so good. I gave him my flight information, and initially he said, "Call to reserve the day before the flight." There was a pause as I began to formulate the words to say, um, no, sorry I want a service which will take a reservation now. I knew the day before my flight was going to be crazy busy, and I needed to take finding a limo off my plate in advance. He seemed to read my mind and jumped into the pause and said don't worry, you can reserve now. He took my flight info, my address, and my phone number. I should have realized it was a red flag that he didn't take my cc#. Well, my flight day rolled around and it was 7:45 a.m. and no limo had arrived at my address I called his phone number and kept getting voice mail. After a few tries, I left a message, and got no return phone call back within a half hour. It was now a serious emergency, and I had to call a cab company and beg for someone to come ASAP. I ended up giving a $20 tip to the guy who saved me. It's possible this service is fine if you operate as he prefers, by calling the day before. However, I would highly recommend anyone who wants a reservation in advance go to another service. The reason for the one-star rating is that he wasn't honest with me. If he's not able to take reservations in advance by more than a day, he should hold firm to that rather than promising something he can't deliver.

    I've used these guys twice for early morning rides to the Oakland airport. They a little more…read moreexpensive that a Lyft/Uber, but they are always on time and will help you with your luggage, whereas that's not always the case with the apps. I would definitely recommend them.

    My opinion remains the same, they really deserve more than just 5 stars. After a few years, I was…read moredesperate in need of more than just a cab ride, a friendly face as I needed to get to ER. As it turned out I had broken my elbow and both bones in my arm connecting it to my wrist. After having such bad experiences when I've taken an ambulance to ER, I waited a full day before I had to resign myself to... it wasn't going to heal on its own and one of the broken arm bones was looking to be punching its way out of my skin. I needed a plan. Though it wasn't easy, I looked up cabs on the internet... and poof! There they still were Fast and Friendly with Abdo's name attached to it! It was after hours but I gave it a shot and they picked up! It wasn't Abdo but his son, Belal who was just as wonderful as his dad and the rest of the family crew had been and haven't used any other since(except couple of times when Covid & other things had them in limbo). It brought me back to life enough back in August to see Abdo's name on their ad and then the above and beyond heart full service I was in need of that night even though the prognosis of my injury would be worse than I knew at the time. And their service has been so exceptional and will always go out of their way to treat you with such kindness especially when they can tell you need more than just a ride but need a warm heart! They give everyone all this with rates that are no different than any other cab service. You won't be disappointed if you give them a call! Sincerely, Claire

    Same experience as other Yelpers. UNRELIABLE. I contacted them via their website 4 days before I…read moreneeded them to see if I could schedule a pick up for today at 6 am. I never got a response and I should have taken that as a clue. I called them last night and booked the 6 a.m. pick up that way. I was directed to send my address via text, which I did, and I got a text back confirming the pick up. So then I purchased the Yelp deal online for the $75 airport ride for $67, And then 6 a.m. this morning, I'm sitting by the window, with my suitcase next to me, waiting, watching. Nothing. 6:05. Nothing. 6:10. Nothing. I call the number. No one picks up. I send a text message and I get back the response "Sending a car now." Then I get a phone call from some other guy saying that he's driving from Berkeley and will pick me up in 10 minutes. 6:30 am a car finally shows up. This is an entirely different guy (who actually frightened me a couple of times during the ride with his reckless driving). I made my flight but probably wouldn't have if I had to check in bags. And guess what? I find out only when I get to the airport that 510 Airport Taxi had called ANOTHER taxi service to pick me up. So when I go to pay with the Yelp voucher, the driver refuses to take it because he's not with 510 Airport Taxi. Now I'm just trying to get my Yelp voucher refunded. I had to pay that guy, essentially paying for this awful taxi ride twice and now I'm getting texts from 510 Airport Taxi asking if I want to use the voucher for a ride from airport on my return trip (NO!) and that I have to contact Yelp for the refund. This is not a taxi service with a dispatcher. This is a guy who owns a car and a cell phone. BAD NEWS all around!

    These guys stood me up after agreeing to pick me up at 4:45am for the airport. I stood outside…read morewaiting and calling. They did not show up, they did not answer their phone, they did not respond to my text. UNRELIABLE. Luckily, I was able to get another cab service to dispatch within 5 minutes so I was able to make it to my flight on time.
