I've never been to a smog check station where the customers were in a good mood before. Bob is friendly, professional, clear and concise. He sets the whole tone for the establishment. He is quick and happy to provide suggestion up and down the street of places to spendsome time while you're waiting for your car. I chose to sit in the clean waiting room and read the local paper. I pulled up at 1:10pm on a Friday without an appointment and was done at 1:35pm. Total cost was $55 after using the $10 off coupon on the website. It was almost too easy and painless.
Pros: Competative prices, polite, clean, fast, easy
Cons: None

the staff are very gentle, caring and focused. They will give you as much explanation as you need and they won't try to push you into unnecessary engine repair costs. The place is very clean and the smog check service is speedy. don't forget the Citysearch's $10 coupon when you're going there.

Not really. No one likes getting a smog test, but I don’t mind coming here. It took about 10 minutes and they are nice. Use the coupon and save $10 and try to pick an off time to go. They can get busy.
Pros: easy, nice, friendly, fast
Cons: They adjusted my seat

Bob is so nice! I never had anyone explain my smog test results before. Service was fast and friendly, and the waiting area is clean and comfortable. (Can't say that for most of the places I've had smog checks done.) Price is fair especially with the Citysearch coupon. I would definitely recommend this place!

I read great comments on it and decided to try them out for my out of state smog check. Service was very professional and fast -- took me 20 minutes to do a smog check! And instead of making me wait in a boring room, he directed me to a few restaraunts in the area to get a bite while they worked on it. Aslo, after I passed, they thoroughly explained everything to me. It's hard to find a good mechanic when moving to a new area, and I am definetely going to go to these guys for all of my service needs. Thanks a bunch!
Pros: Fast, Friiendly, Courteous, Honest
Cons: None

I picked this place because it was close to where I work. I stopped by after work without an appointment and less than a half hour later was on my way with my smog certification. Bob was very nice and explained in detail what all the numbers in the report meant (that's the first time any smog check station has even offered to explain to me!).
Pros: Friendly service, clean
Cons: none

This is the first review I've ever written, but I just had to comment on this place. The guys there are helpful and explained to me step by step what was wrong with my car and what they would do to fix it. Bobby is friendly and has been working on my moms vehicles for over 15 years! I recommend this place to everyone but especially to women like myself who don't know much about cars but need honest service at a good price.

If you want a professional staff, and quality service, you have to check out Santa Monica Smog Check. Every time I experience car trouble I pay the crew a visit and know my truck is in good hands. : ) Two Thumbs Up.
