Had computer connection problems w/ the VW Passat, i drove in for help. Matt diagnosed the problem w/ my ABS Brake sensor.

30 minutes after the scheduled appointment, he called to tell me that he had no troubles communicating w/ the car and it was smog-ready. Somehow, the smog-test station failed.

No charge at all.

I went a second time for some transmission problems. No bullshit, just fair service with a smile.

I HIGHLY recommend them for all your German car needs and a second opinion if you feel you are being cheated elsewhere.

Just called for an estimate on a fix for a broken thermal couple. They quoted $150-175 and a fix within the hour. Then, the salesman tried to upsell me on a new water heater (mine is 15 years old) for $1200, cause the old model was "running on borrowed time".

Maybe he's right, and maybe he's just trying to sell business in a bad economy, but I ended the call and moved on. Show owner comment »

One of my fave places in the city. It's not packed, unpretentious and the booze is cheap. Nothing extravagant, just a good place for catching up w/ old friends

Overpriced, cause of the area. However, the food isn't bad. The restaurant has style and food presentation is pretty.

Probably, a good date place, but if you want good Viet food, hit Li'l Saigon (south San Jo)
