The fact that it's in Brooklyn makes it even more outstanding. You won't find a more reasonably priced, and thorough mechanic, as well as a consummate gentleman who treats your car as his own. Thank you Chris!

If I could give Chris and his crew more than 5/5, I would. High quality and high value expertise that beats any dealer / shop in town.

Chris is the real deal. Honest, hard working, and an all round gentleman. He’s been my mechanic for a few years now and I couldn’t recommend him enough - I’m moving out of state and will honestly be sad to say bye. They don’t make them like him anymore. Thanks Chris!

I can’t recommend this shop enough! Chris was super helpful! Got my emissions test for my out of state registration and oil change in under 30 minutes. I will definitely come here again in the future.

Chris (manager/owner) was a nice fellow and seemed to know what he was doing. A few years later this requires an update. He's the best mechanic I've come across in NYC in terms of price and honesty. I added an extra star 3 years after the initial contact with him.

Chris and team are honest and top notch. I go to L&B every year for my Subaru's inspection and oil change. This most recent year I needed new brake rotors and Chris offered a fair price and fast service. He's friendly and answered all my questions. Looking for a new shop? I recommend this one.

It’s hard enough to find a good shop so when you find a great one, it’s like hitting the jackpot. Prices are fair, they’re responsive, workmanship is elite, and they go the extra mile. These guys fixed a dent in my bumper without me even asking! Name another shop that would do that for you. They’ll be getting all my business and referrals from now on.

great people - I have an 03 Jeep Wrangler, I made my piece knowing its always gonna have something going on with it - but L&B is great at letting me know what should be fixed and what I can live with not fixing. They know owning this thing is a labor of love and do their best to keep it running smoothly without making me go broke.
