Star Smog Central

Great service by Star Smog Central. They were kind enough to accept my walk in service request on Saturday morning.
Both Amy and Justin are just amazing, and know exactly how to serve their customers with unmatched quality experience. They are kind and courteous, transparent and upfront. 100% will come back next time. Thanks Amy and Justin.

Totally recommend :)

A+ all around! Very easy and affordable. I made an appointment to be safe but they take walk ins too. $40 total — can’t beat that!— and I forgot to bring up the online coupon but he applied it automatically. The parking lot is cramped but there was an open spot right at the door, and there’s a very comfortable little waiting area.

I went here maybe 4 years ago when it was under a different owner and the guy was very grumpy, but both the guys here were super easy to work with, pleasant, and helpful. Honestly, the whole smog process tends to stress me out and I procrastinate and it’s a whole thing, but if these guys stick around I would say those days are over!

I call this morning make an appointment at2:00 and go there exactly at 2:00, Justin so nice and very quick does the job. When I use my credit card pay, he said chip card only and hand-input my credit card info, he tell me not okay so I went home got cash and return paid him, but when I check my mobile phone I get the text msg my card does charge d 40 dollars so I called back, Justin so nice said let me several days to see if it charged my card, if yes he will refund my 40 dollars cash.

21 Jan：super honest owner and super level service.

Fast, friendly & great service. Would definitely use them again! Thanks!

Got lucky, no one in front of me, got out in less than 20 min. Friendly couple. Note that their web site has coupon for $32 so $40 with certificate.

I’m a returning customer at Star Smog Central. The owner Justin is great and his staff as well. I made an Appt for 12 on a Saturday and arrived early. Had to wait a little bit but no biggie. Glad I went in early. Got the job done painless and good value. Super quick and I HIGHLY recommend this place in San Mateo. Thanks again Justin, God Bless.

Honest, reasonable, efficient and friendly. I'm not used to giving reviews, but this time I felt it was necessary. Amy and Justin are a great team. They deserve all the 5 star they got in both google and yelp.

I was greeted by Justin and went through a smooth smog check. I went over smog check guidelines and he checked codes in case there was a problem. If you are also interested they detail too.

I made an appt. to have my car smogged here. Appears to be a 1-man operation in a facility that shares an entrance and parking with other establishments. Despite being backed up, Justin hustled and got me on my way in about 25 minutes. Great work!

Made the experience so easy, nice office, good customer service and reasonable price. In and out in 20 minutes or less. Will definitely use them again!

Did the smog test here, fast and professional. Took me 15 mins and $40 without appointment.

I would give them more than 5 stars.
Friendly, knowledgeable and safe. Took less than 15 minutes. Honored their coupon with no issues. Taking my other car there next week. I took my first car to another shop, smog4less, on El Camino in San Mateo which was horrible. This is the place to go!

Quick and easy process. Made an appointment over the phone for the next morning. They mentioned the discount from their website before I asked. 10 mins wait and it's done. Smog update reflected on the DMV website the next day. Will come back again.

Fast & friendly service by Justin at a competitive price. In and out in less than 15 minutes on a Saturday. What more could you ask for?

Justin was super helpful and courteous. No problem with the confusing CARB EO numbers for my parts. In and out quickly. Great website price too.

I wanted to give a big thank you to Justin and his associate for another excellent experience at their shop. I have been coming here for years and what a positive difference from the previous ownership. Anyone who used this location ( San Mateo Express Smog) in years prior was subjected to "Mr Cranky" and what a relief to have Justin as the new business owner of Smog Central.
This was the third time I have used them for my few vehicles since Justin purchased the business and each interaction has been a pleasure. Each time I received consistent professional, courteous & friendly treatment in a timely manner. Smog Central makes it easy and comfortable to get a Smog and I certainly recommend their shop. You can tell they appreciate your business making it easy to support local small business owners especially during these challenging times.

Needed a quick smog and called them. Super nice and helpful! Took me in right away and even let me know there was a recall on my car! Will definitely use them again!

I used smog central for a star smog check. Service was really quick. In and out in less than 10 minutes. Highly recommend.

Great owners!!! Great service.

Fast, efficient, would definitely recommend
