By far the best mechanic I’ve ever encountered! Was completely honest from being to end. I recommend him to everybody.
Fantastic experience! Mitch is honest, extremely knowledgeable, and won’t upsell you on nonsense your vehicle doesn’t need. He’ll spend the time to explain your vehicle’s issue in detail and gets work done quickly. Had my 2012 Camry looked at for a second opinion about a possible issue with the timing chain. Mitch…
Mitch is awesome! I have been going to him for work on different cars for 20 yrs. He's always fair and honest. If the car is in bad shape, he will tell you not to put more money into it and he doesn't rig things. He cares about his reputation, his business, and his customers.
I’ve been coming to Mircea’s shop for years. He’s a great mechanic. Gets the job done well and timely at a fair price. He also takes the time to explain problems and my options. My go-to guy!
Mitch provides excellent service with honesty and high integrity, he fixed the Turbo and sputtering on my car and charged me an excellent price that you wouldn't believe. I tried to give him a $50 tip and he refused to accept it, what a great human being, right?!

He’ll spend the time to explain your vehicle’s issue in detail and gets work done quickly. Had my 2012 Camry looked at for a second opinion about a possible issue with the timing chain. Mitch was able to diagnose the issue, explain to me exactly what’s wrong, and presented a solution for my issue that avoided thousands of dollars in repair costs. Definitely coming back for any vehicle repairs in the future!
Thank you !!!!

Mitch did some smaller jobs for me before, but last time he swapped a whole engine for me. Great work. Bigger task but very successful. My car runs well and you couldn't even tell any worked was done. Awesome job.
Thank you !
