— Our story

The shop you want
your mechanic to be.

A small two-bay shop on Venice Boulevard. Raymond and Art handle every job themselves. They tell you what's wrong, what isn't, and what can wait — even when waiting means less revenue today.

Mar Vista Service has been on Venice Boulevard for years, and most of our regulars have been coming for at least five.

We focus on the boring stuff that keeps cars running — brakes, oil, A/C, belts, batteries, suspension, alignments — and we do it without the upsells. If your shocks have another year in them, we'll tell you. If your timing belt is on borrowed time, we'll tell you that too.

Raymond's the one with the pickle stories — he'll take a 5:30 PM call when other shops won't. Art's the one who'll spend twenty extra minutes explaining what he found, in plain language, with the part in his hand.

"Reliable. Fair. My go-to."

Where the care
actually happens.

Routine, repetition, and pride in the small details. After all the years, those are the only things that matter.

★★★★★

"Raymond really got me out of a pickle. My serpentine belt totally came off late on a Friday and every other shop in the area didn't want to take my car on at 5:30. Raymond accommodated me, was communicative, friendly, and even worked with me on the price. Go here. You won't regret it."

★★★★★

"Ray and Art are the most helpful mechanics I've seen in a long time. Super helpful and knowledgeable — they helped me understand what they were doing to my car and did courtesy diagnostic checks others charge an arm and a leg for. One of the best in my book."

★★★★★

"Recently had a great experience. After calling them the night before, they were accommodating enough to let me bring my car in the next day. New front brake pads and an A/C issue — fixed within a few hours, prices reasonable. Highly recommend."

★★★★★

"Very courteous, conscientious, and honest automotive repair shop. I recommend women who don't have a male representative go to this shop. They'll take good care of you and they'll be honest. They will not take advantage of you."
