I had this car shipped from Texas to Athenian Body Shop, Nick the owner exceeded my expectations with the body work and paint job. It was spot on and Ive had so many offers to sell my car( not interested) I will say if you are in a hurry for a quick turnaround please make sure your communication is clear!!!Its alot more I can say but pictures are worth a thousand words, just know if you see this purple car in person,its breath taking, thanks Nick!!!
I got my vehicle back better than ever before. I looked like it wasnt even mine. Even better the misses likes it even more. I got some thanks to Athenian. Cause of course she credited me for picking the place. Thanks guys
I have been going here for over 15 years, always get good service. NICK and his father run a good and fair business, this place does a lot of body work, so wait times may vary based on part availability, they do a great job on shopping around for parts at good prices.
Nick and Val have always been understanding, friendly, helpful and the work the shop has done for me (it has been quite extensive) is done well and in a timely manner. I wont take my car anywhere else. They have my business for life
Consumers: If you are not sure which body shop to use, you will not be sorry if you choose Athenian Body Shop. Nick is trustworthy and honest. He treats all of this customers with patience, concern and respect. He will make sure your vehicle is repaired expertly and with safety in mind. Nick came to my rescue when I was involved in an untimely accident 35 miles from home. He helped me get back on the road so I could get my 85 year old mother home after oral surgery. I witnessed the way he cares about people. Thank you from the bottom of my heart Nick! Warmly, Renee Ross
Super helpful and accommodating. I was referred to Nick by another customer. Couldnt be happier w/their service. Very professional and fair priced. Highly recommend them.
The greatest people ever love taking my car there
I lost all my trust in this shop, and will never be back again. They never did the work.Nick quoted 3 day turn around. Once they got all the parts I dropped it off. They took my car for 8 days and didn’t work on it. Never called me once.When I called today to ask if my car is repaired they said yes, and to come in. Then called me 20 minutes later to say they need another week. For a broken bumper and some paint I was quoted 3 day turnaround on.I just went and picked my car up. I asked for Nick but he left my car in the lot and went on vacation. The girl at the front was kind, but as soon as the manager came along he was rude.
Great people. Val and Nick did a great job from start to finish. Very happy with the results
Great customer service. The place is well kept and straight forward. They are also honest which is a plus in my book.
Really nice people to do business with, especially Nick, super cool dude. And the girl working with him in the business, she’s super nice and understanding, I’m not too good with remembering names, but everyone there will treat you right! The Body work done to my car (2002 Acura TL) is by far the best I’ve ever seen out of all other body shops I gone to. They use GOOD QUALITY parts, keeping knock-offs out of the equation! I left my car here looking like a mess with a wrecked front-end, and I get it back looking like showroom quality. Will definitely be #1 on the list if I ever need any body work done again!
I got my FRS, and Audi truck fixed here never had a complaint. When you come in ask for Nick he’ll take care of you.
We brought our van for repairs. They do a great job.
I did have my Merceds Benz 2016 serviced there and I am totally happy and satisfied with the outcome, the owner Nick is really welcoming, the quality of my car body work was great and definitely I do recommend Athena to everyone 5 stars ⭐️
Encounter issue With completion of job A little improvement of communication between front office and body shop It would help if Nick could maybe check cars after completion of work But handle job professional and fair it was resolved
There are a decent body shop. Just takes awhile to get your vehicle.
Good people great job
Great place and great people highly recommended
I just got my car back from this body shop. They definitely did a great job. My chevy equinox had dents and scratches, and after the work and paint job done, it looks like its new again. Excellent service and great people to deal with. Price are very reasonable and cant compare it to any other shop. I would definitely recommend you guys to my friend, shell need some body work on her mini van soon. Thank you again! And stay safe!
Amazing job and amazing staff! They do the best work!
This place does great work and quick!!! I love it here!!!!
Was referred from a friend to the shop. Came in Nick took care of my S8 within 1 hourVery nice and respectful people5 stars
My family has been coming here for many years. They have excellent customer service, do great work and are very honest. I would highly recommend Athenian Body Shop for any body work your vehicle may need!
I was referred to Anthenian body shop and I was taken care of by Nick. Extremely pleased with how respectful and professional this business is. They did a fantastic job on the car. I will always make the trip to go to this shop.
Great customer service and communication. Very friendly environment just wish I was visiting for better reasons than I did.
Spoke with one of the owners. He told me exactly how it is, before letting me decide what service I needed. Good man.
Very pleasant experience with Nick at Athenian. Tell em Mari sent you!
Good people Good service 👏 👍
Great shop, very honest and trustworthy. They do good quality work with great customer service. Highly recommend!
Ive been to a few body shops, this is the best shop Ive been too yet, excellent work! On top of that, they were almost half the price of the other body shops I went to, Im overly satisfied with the work, staff, customer service and price! Thank you guys!They even work on exotic cars too from what Ive seen in the lot.
We have been taking our cars to Nick for many years. They are very honest and do excellent work. If you are looking for a shop that does great work, is honest, trustworthy and friendly Athenian is the perfect choice. We would never even consider going anywhere else. You will not be disappointed.
Outstanding work and customer service. Nick and his staff are all amazing made my car look brand new after a major accident, definitely my new shop to come to.
#1 body shop! Nick is the best!
All of my friends recommended this spot. I’m very cautious to where I take my cars- being nervous was an understatement. Nick was extremely professional & fair. Would never consider another body shop. Thanks again Nick!
Good people good work
I just had my car repaired at Athenian and I cannot say enough nice things about them. From the extremely friendly staff and management, to the excellent work and timeliness to which my car was repaired they were on point with everything. I would highly recommend this shop to anyone looking for body shop repairs. Thanks Athenian!!!
Class act. Very professional and exceptional service. Fixed my car within 24 hours when I was in a jam. I wouldn’t go anywhere else.
This is the best body shop in the Northern Hemisphere! They have a great staff who enthusiasticallty answer all your questions and keep you informed at every step of the process of fixing your car.Jim and Nick are experts at customer service and go out of their way to please and accommodate you!When your automobile is ready and you go to pick it up, a great experience gets even better. The work they do is astonishing! My car looked better than it did when it came off the factory assembly line!If your car needs body work please go to the Athenian Body Shop!
Its no accident that Athenian is the best body shop around! Whether its your daily driver or high end luxury or exotic, this place can handle anything that comes their way.
The best customer service and work. Price is very fair as well. They really take care of your car like you would want them too! Definitely recommend this place.
If you want communication, and deadlines not to be honored. Someone backed into my car. I decided not to go through the insurance and picked this place based on the reviews. When i took my car in i was told it would take 4 days. I took my car on Sat 8/3 (8am); I called them on Thursday (8/8); they stated they were finishing up my car and would call me that afternoon. (NO call) on Friday (8/9) I got a call at 5:30pm saying my car will be ready on Sat (8/10). I went on Sat to pick up my car (8am) and was happy it was finished.. Wait a minute! My husband inspected the car and the color didnt match. He told me/and one of the owners (the son) that the color didnt match. The son told us we can buff it out! My husband said I am not going to buff out a car I am paying over $1400 to have fixed they need to fix it. The son stated that he didnt have anyone to do it today so he can have it done by Monday (8/12).. I waited ALL day on 8/12 no call nothing from this shop. MY husband called Tuesday (8/13)and they said the car will be ready in an hour. Thank goodness when i went the car was ready and the color was matched to the rest of the car. However for what was quoted as a 4 day job. Took 9 business days, and most communication was me calling them I am happy this is finally over.
This place is absolutely fantastic! It is unfortunate that my need of their services always involves an accident of some sort.I grew up in the oak lawn/Chicago ridge area, and used them for several repairs in 2001-2004. I lived out of state 2006-2011. While Ive been away, friends and family have used them. Nobody has complaints. They do a great job, consistently.I returned to the area in 2011, but now live 24 miles away. I still end up taking my cars here, even after investigating all the other (closer/dealership) optionsI took my 2014 Camry to several places for estimates after it was damaged in a parking lot accident, and included Athenian only because they happens to be open when I was in the area to visit my mother one Saturday morning.The were the best quote, and the repair was perfect.I am a happy customer, for over a decade.Review written two months after my most recent repair.
Excellent service + Outstanding quality work + Very friendly. 10 Stars Well deserved!
Awesome place! Nice service! Fast good work
I feel they did a great job with my car
Great job,service,prices! Car looks like new again!
I have known Jim since the 1970s when he had a body shop on the North Side of Chicago. Jim and his son Nick are always fair, courteous, and treat their customers like family. They do excellent work, and no car goes out of their shop without it being personally inspected by the them. Their prices are very fair and logical considering they are masters at their trade.
Great work@
Nick accepted my insurance claim and worked a miracle with my car. He worked with the insurance company to get all work authorized and it was ready in the time he indicated. The vehicle looked like new, paint matched exactly. Maybe it was in my mind, but I would swear that the vehicle ran like new as well as looked like new. I would highly recommend Athenian for your body work needs.
They fixed my car last week, and I really loved it. Honest people because when I was paying them for the service, I overpay $100 by mistake and the guy return me that money. Great price, great workers and great service on time. Just try them and you will understand what I mean.
Nick and his dad fixed my car back to pristine condition faster than you can imagine. His family does the best work at the best prices. Highly recommend.
I’ve regained faith in the auto repair industry after coming here. I wish I would’ve known about them before bringing my car to the untrustworthy place my old insurance company recommended. Anyways-Roy put my plates on for me in the freezing cold. I will be coming back. Thank you, Roy!
Wish I could give this place more stars! Service is always quick and efficient! Nick is the only one I trust with our cars! Honestly is key at this place, never have felt more at ease with an auto body repair shop! Highly recommended!
I’ve been meaning to write this review for a long time and I usually don’t like to write reviews. My husband got into a car accident and we needed a auto shop and I would say that we picked the right place!!! The owner helped me so much and I really appreciate everything he done! The car looked brand new!!!
Fast professional service with amazing work. I found them online, they towed my truck off the expressway and massive bodywork was completed in three days. Its been a few months and Im still very satisfied with their work, thanks Nick!
One star unless you talk to nick, dont talk to Jim at all unless you wanna be talked to like your a teenager. Ill just take all my business and reccomendations up the street to kallemeyn instead. They do great work and have it done exactly when they say itll be done.Since I cannot reply below. Its the same Jim who fired me 5 years ago for doing my job and not doing others. Im not here to lie but your old man will be the one who started the biz and hell bring it down too.other than that the bike came out great in which I requested from you. (Nick)
Great body shop! Very professional and the quality of work is second to none .
Really great work! Completely repaired my bumper and now it looks like new.
Excellent service, and work.Nick, you are the best!If you need excellent professional work, go there without thinking twice.
Owners are kind, understanding, helpful and professional. The shop would pick up the phone and answer any questions you have and would accomodate to any doable requests. Did not have a chance to see the workers but judging by the job done they did great, leaving no traces of any damages on my Maxima. It was a mess in my car before I dropped it for repair, they took care of it as well cleaning the interior and washing it outside. They also put back together the hanging plastics underneath the car I had because of a running over a truck tire on the highway, I never requested a cleaning nor fixing back the plastics. Very well done, I see why so many positive reviews. Thank you guys, keep it that way!
Great staff.very courteous and helpful. Never had a problem. They look out for the customer. Always puts the customer first
Extremely helpful and accommodating. Could not be more impressed with the service and quality of workmanship. Highly recommended.
Good works. the best, good people, I felt they are my friends and they become my friends, perfect, i will not take my car any where us
Great Service
The BEST PLACE NEVER HAVE A PROBLEM satisfaction guarantee
Great place to take your car for body work/repair. I got the lowest estimate on getting a rear passenger door replaced for my 2011 Equinox, when it got dented in, compared to two other body shops. They did an excellent job!!
Car looked better then when I bought it off the showroom floor Nico the owner is by fan-freakin- tastic. Best body shop in Chicago
The car looks like new!
This a family run business there work is outstanding and their customer service great.
Yesterday I gave them my car to fix I will keep you updated, the best place to get your cars body work at, ask for nick hes a cool dude
I had my rear driver side door hit about a year ago, the dent was pretty bad..I had two options of either replacing the door or getting the original fixed, repainted/blended. I went with option two. Honestly, not that I doubted Athenian, but I was a bit worried that the paint I have is going to be very difficult to blend (Acura TSX metallic graphite pearl) and that it was going to be big difference. I was so wrong.. let me remind you that this is practically a show car in working progress. Athenian did a beyond fantastic job.. EVERY little detail in the door was brought back to life, the paint is perfect, it is blended and matched precisely. I am extremely satisfied with the work, was for sure worth the wait, I will be bringing my my car to them again with my new bumper and other parts that need painting.
Excellent work . Nick and his guys do a fantastic job.
Excellent service! I have been dealing with them for over ten years, never had a bad experience. Thank you Nick. Hamza kishta
