Some of the best mechanics out there. They really know the ins and outs of older cars especially. They’re always friendly, honest, communicative, and timely with their services. Their prices are super fair, and they never try to get you to do something unnecessary with your car. Can’t recommend Calfo’s enough!
Excellent service! It was necessary to do an inspection, it’s the first time I’ve done it and I was afraid that it wouldn’t pass, the service would do something! But everything turned out to be fine, the car was checked, new stickers were glued, an inspection certificate was issued, no additional services! $100 and the inspection is ready!
Some of the best, friendliest people providing excellent customer service and the highest quality of auto service. Everything from maintenance to a surprise oil leak was handled promptly and on time. Prices are super fair, never pushy with a very welcoming atmosphere.

This guy runs a high volume shop. Quantity over quality. He's just going to slap something together and get you on your way. If you actually think your going to get a quality fix to your issue god bless you. In the second photo he used an aftermarket part (the bolt is sticking out a lot, just random parts that don't fit well, bracket not secured flat and properly) that doesn't really fit and is bound to fail and this guy charges about $200 hr for labor and marks up parts 5 times.
Cares for your car but not so much for you. I had my car inspected elsewhere and it passed but needed more work. I found Calfo's and they said they could do the work. Then I spent about a month trying to get service scheduled. At the first appointment, I dropped off the car for a 2-day job, only to come to pick it up and was told they forgot to order the parts - and also forgot to tell me. Two days without my car wasted. I was told they would call back to reschedule, but the call never came. I tried several times an only when I asked if I should look elsewhere for service was my appointment scheduled. I dropped the car off again and was again told it would be a 2-day job. In the meantime, my "Maintenance Required" light had come on and I asked that this be checked as well. When I called mid-afternoon of the second day, (didn't totally trust it would be ready) I was told they had gotten the wrong part and were trying to get another. It may or may not come that day. Eventually I got a call that it would be ready by end of day. When I picked the car up, they were checking under the hood for the source of the "Maintenance Required" light. I was told it was fluid levels, although no additional fluids were added and the light was turned off. The rest of the work they did was in the rear on the axels and differential. I took the car home (3 miles) and it sat there for the weekend. Monday morning I started on my way to work during rush hour traffic. About 5 miles into the drive, my engine caught fire. I was on the parkway in the passing lane. I managed to get over and to the nearest exit, which was Oakland. As I started down the ramp I found my brakes had also failed. There were cars and pedestrians everywhere. By some miracle I took a sharp turn up Bates to slow the car and didn't hit anyone else. The car eventually stopped. By that time the flames were 4 feet high. As you might imagine, I had imagined the worst. As I got out of the car and ran, a pedestrian yelled that he had already called 911 because they saw the flames as I came down the ramp. When I notified Calfo's of what happened, I was told quite strongly and repeatedly that they were not to blame, they had worked on the rear of the car and the fire started in the engine. Despite my questions of what exactly they were doing under the hood, there was "no chance" they had done anything to cause the fire, even though it happened within ten miles of leaving their shop. I requested at least some refund or renumeration for my losses (the car was totaled and I lost personal belongings not to mention the stress of it all!) and for all the time I had spent (and wasted) trying to get my car repaired at Calfo's. I was told that they would not consider that because they had done good work and they were sorry for my inconvenience. So that's why I say, "They care for your car, but not for you!"
