Pat’s Garage is one of 2 places where we can get our Fisker Ocean serviced. They did a great job replacing the water pump and our 12v battery. Excellent communications and pictures included with the invoice. We’ll be back.

Over the past several years I have had nothing but the finest service on my Honda Civic, and lots of little extras (such as a technician voluntarily fixing my driver’s side door at no charge, and the staff calling cabs for me on days when I was in a rush to get somewhere - on a day when my car was being worked on). The amount of detailed info contained on Pat’s invoices is so helpful, and their kindness and courtesy is simply above and beyond. I highly recommend them! - Tim

First time customer at this place. The facility is clean and organized and welcoming. The staff are friendly and helpful. The service advisor Foster is great in planing the whole process with detail of needed services. I was nervous and hesitated at the beginning. But after a few phone conversations with the staff and technicians, I was pleased with the results. Nice and pleasant experience for me.

Excellent honest friendly service! They take terrific care of my very old hybrid, and thanks to them, it's running sweetly and reliably.

Found Pat's Garage online while looking for a local independent Toyota shop ( they also service other Japanese and Korean brands). I was attracted by their great reviews and decided to make an appointment. Easy to make an appointment online. Great customer service. Left my car in the morning for a regular maintenance service and they had it ready by early afternoon and kept me updated in the process. They also provided with detailed records of the services performed including photos of the parts of the car inspected. Also they have a price promo for first time customers which I took advantage of. I'll definitely be back.

Very knowledgeable and reasonable prices. Byron, my mechanic, went for a drive with me to see what the problem I was dealing with was. They’re very communicative on their process and helped me much!

I found Pat’s Garage through Chat GPT because I was looking for a trustworthy place to evaluate whether an older car was worth fixing up or not. They were friendly, answered all my questions, and gave me the information I needed to make an informed decision. I loved the experience and will definitely use them again for future auto service.

The folks at Pat’s Garage provided excellent advice on parts selection for repairs to my Fisker. Forrest was able to source and ship parts quickly to help get my car back on the road.

WOW Randomly chose Pats Garage as I saw it in passing on my way to Kaiser My previous mechanic moved to Daly City The experience with Pats was fabulous Great price, great personalities kind and respectful definitely knowledgeable answering all my basic questions with sensitivity The work and explanations of needed work thoughtful with timeframes and cost within the average retired SF persons budget Reducing anxiety over this needed but not urgent work As an 82 yr old single female felt protected So grateful to find a company I trust Thank you all who worked with me General maintenance with oil change & alignment

We have received some 20 years of excellent service on our Prius from the crew at Pat's! Simply the best: friendly, clear communications from a family-owned local shop that attains the highest professional standards.

I had a really positive experience at this store. The staff were friendly, patient, and respectful throughout my visit. I came in to get a protective cover installed for my car’s catalytic converter. The technician was skilled and efficient, and the work was done smoothly. After the installation, they checked several parts of my car and gave me a clear report about the condition of my oil, tires, and more — along with helpful suggestions. I also asked about tire replacement, and they offered good pricing with a wide selection of brands. The service quality here honestly feels like what you’d expect from a professional dealership. I left feeling confident and well taken care of. I’ll definitely return to get my tires replaced here. Highly recommended!👍👍

Wise advice, excellent service. I have taken my cars to Pat since 1990. Trust him with my life. Friendly. Patient explainers. Rest room. Although the shop seems surrounded by industrial buildings, the lovely Dogpatch neighborhood is only a couple of blocks away, as is the Bay, including small parks & gardens playground, Museum of Craft and Design, Humphrey Slocombe ice cream, and Philz Coffee.

Just wanted to say it was a pleasure to get some routine maintenance done at Pat’s. The service was excellent and straightforward. Really honest and fair. Also, Pat’s did something extra for me until I could get to an auto body shop and didn’t charge me for that. I really appreciate your kindness and wish you and all your staff a Merry Christmas and happy holiday season!

I’ve been going to Pat’s Garage for several years now and I’ve never been disappointed. This time however, I already knew what the cost of my repairs was going to be and that helped a lot for me to budget. They get five stars anytime in my book.

Pat's Garage is an absolute gem! I’ve been bringing my car to Pat’s Garage for a while now, and every single visit has been consistently fantastic. The team here is friendly, honest, and incredibly patient — they actually take the time to explain what’s going on with your car, answer questions, and make sure you truly understand your options. When I was deciding whether to repair or trade in my last vehicle, they went above and beyond — giving me thoughtful advice, realistic expectations, and even tips on what to look for in my next car. That’s not “business as usual” service — that’s genuine care. Their inspections are impressively thorough, with clear, detailed breakdowns of everything checked and why it matters. It’s the kind of transparency that instantly builds trust. You can tell the team enjoys what they do and that they genuinely respect each other — there’s very little turnover, and everyone seems genuinely happy to work there. That says a lot about the culture Pat has built. I recommend this shop to everyone I know… though selfishly, I kind of hope their fanbase doesn’t grow too much, so I can still get appointments easily! 😉 In a world full of corporate auto chains and upsells, Pat’s Garage stands out as the real deal — a small business built on kindness, integrity, and skill. I couldn’t be more grateful to have found them.

Happy to have found them! They are Miata enthusiasts and I have finally found a place to take my beloved miata. They did a full inspection and even shared photos... and it was very affordable. Highly endorse

I can be a demanding customer and Pat’s always takes great care of my 1991 Toyota Pickup. Highly recommended and trusted for routine service / maintenance. Admin team also is responsive, knowledgeable, and demonstrates empathy for the customer. No BS. You can trust them :)

My husband recommended Pat's Garage for my Prius (he has one, too). I went in to replace a headlight and even though they were very busy, they squeezed me in and were finished in just a couple of hours. In addition, they checked the air pressure on my tires. I'll definitely be returning the next time I need something!
