Very upfront, honest individuals! They take the time to educate you on your own car and help you find the best cost. One thing I look for with car maintenance is honesty. Anyone can say you need thousands of dollars worked on your car but are they being honest? Such a great quality business. I suggest all my friends and families to this business!
I moved to Pittsburgh a few months ago, and was in need of a mechanic. I went to Calfo’s and they are the best mechanics I have ever been to in the area. They are so polite and kind. They do not try to rip me off like other places have and they make sure to listen and educate me on topics I have questions about. They are also always willing to find me the best prices. Thank you Calfo’s for the excellent service!
My husband and I have been taking our cars to Calfo’s since we moved to Greenfield a few years ago. Prior to the move I had always taken my car to a friend of the family mechanic. After taking my car to my dads best friend most of my adult life I was concerned that finding a new mechanic would be difficult. I searched the Pittsburgh area for a business that was described as honest and fair providing quality service. This was the first auto service I called and from the moment I spoke to Rege & his team I truly felt like I was still interacting with a good family friend. I can not say enough great things about this business and the people who work so hard to provide great service. They are absolutely amazing. We are moving to NYC soon but I will continue to have my car serviced here when I’m in town to visit family, it’s worth it!
I’ve been using Calfo’s for a few years now, and they never disappoint. They’re usually busy (as most good shops are), but are always able to accommodate any scheduled maintenance or unexpected repairs. They also don’t oversell any unnecessary parts or services, and what they do sell is always a fair price.
I drove from DC to Pittsburgh and had some car trouble on the way. Being in a new area, I had no idea where to take my car. The first place I went to told me I needed both axle boots replaced and wanted to charge me $800+ for this. I left there after seeing the reviews for Calfos. They immediately looked at my car and said I didnt need both axle boots replaced and that it would be better to get the axle replaced on one side rather than just the boot. (I may not be explaining this right). At any rate, my point is that they showed me the component that was messed up and explained the recommendation. I ended up only spending around $300 and my car had a smooth ride back to DC. I appreciate having car service that does not feel like I am being taken for a ride. Everyone was friendly and the work was done quickly. If I end up relocating to Pittsburgh, this would be the only place I ever take my car. Thanks again for your work!
I brought my car in here after Pep Boys tried to screw me over and they were great! They didnt BS me at all or try to charge me for things that I didnt need. They did a good job making sure my car was all good and were very reasonably priced. The workers were kind and Id definitely recommend supporting this small local business!
An auto repair shop thats fair and isnt trying to rip you off. Ive gone back to the. Their prices are very fair.
Rege Calfo and team always do a wonderful job. They are clear about scope, respectful and friendly in communications, and reliable in getting the work done. Best mechanics Ive had.
State Inspection done in a day, on time, professionally.
Great service, very friendly, good pricing, easy to work with. Went in to get two tires replaced, very timely service and they even cleaned my engine bay for free! They do great work and I highly recommend.
This place came highly recommended and they did not let me down! Very friendly, straight forward and honest people. Quality work in a timely fashion! If you need a mechanic, go here!
Had an issue with my daughters Jeep upon starting a long trip. They looked at the vehicle immediately and provided invaluable service/advice. Definite recommend.
Cant recommend this place enough. I needed an emergency repair done, and they took my car the next morning and turned it around in hours. Extremely transparent about the work needed, called to give a full range of options after diagnosing the issue, and did exceptional work in a short period of time. Call these guys if youre in a pinch; theyll take care of you.
These guys are incredible. Ive been taking my cars here since I live in Greenfield and theyve always been incredibly transparent about costs, timelines, and procedures.As far as car maintenance is concerned, I wouldnt go anywhere else unless you have a specific warranty contract with a dealership.
I just moved to Pittsburgh so I was not sure who to go to for my mechanic needs. The Friday before my new job started, my “check engine soon” signal came on and not only did the car sound different but it drove differently too. I called all the mechanics near me but Calfo’s was the first one that told me they had an opening to check it out. They were able to fix my car that weekend before my new job and I couldn’t be more satisfied. The customer service was phenomenal. I went to this mechanic randomly but next time I need auto assistance I’m choosing Calfos immediately.
Can’t recommend this place enough, they’re kind, efficient, and very easy to work with. Have been going to them for years and it’s always a quick and painless experience
These guys are only capable of doing battery replacements and tire rotations. Anything else you might need done in your vehicle youre out of luck. It seems like they dont have the adequate equipment and space for professional repairs. Be aware of this shop.
As usual Ive never been disappointed. They are customer understanding. They get the customer a very much dying Comoddity. Mind you they also look the hardest to save you the most as well. Something very rare. Honest, quality work, and superb customer interaction. Will always try come here where possible. Ive been a long standing customer since 2008 to current 2016+ My devotion proves and is a testament to their Excellance
I am from Ohio and we LOVE driving. Let me tell ya.As a motorist from Ohio, I experience my fair share of automotive disappointments. I’ll have car trouble and say “Dang” and then immediately YouTube the opening race sequence from the first Fast and Furious. That always gets my spirits up.Here’s another thing that gets my spirits up: Calfo’s. The best automotive service in Pittsburgh. Hands down.Fair on pricing. Timely service. Professional. And sometimes I get so excited to see them that I’ll just talk (incoherent babbling) and they never interrupt. Always just let me go through and say what I gotta say.“Yep, I love a good radiator.”“Ever been to this cool coffee shop?”“Hello!”They’re such good listeners and v nice people. Thank you Calfo’s. Ohio customer for life here.PS - Vin Diesel’s ‘93 Veilside RX-7 from that F&F race sequence is SICK.
Got my brakes done here, very friendly and informative folks.
I took my car in to have them take a look at my check engine light. They took me the same day that I called, and didnt charge me anything to scan the car. Really kind of them to do so, and Ill definitely be back next time I have work that needs to be done.
Great Great. The service with a smile compassion and expertise
I have to start by saying Ive gone to A LOT of auto repair shops over the years. Regis, Bobby, Reggie and crew are THE BEST in the Burgh, hands down! My entire family and I have taken all of our vehicles to them and the outcome is always the same, they are fixed and fixed right the first time! They are ALWAYS busy, so be patient. HONEST, FAIR and REPUTABLE would be how I describe Calfos Auto Service. I would give them 6 stars, but there are only 5 available, Highly Recommended!
Was supposed to call me with quotes and look at my truck,never called,will never take my truck there,of course he doesnt care .if you remember i was standing in front of you and your desk and thats when. you told me i will call you i waited 1 week nothing to me that means your not interested in the work so i found someone else,but i do have more work that needs done but now i cant afford it yet but when im ready i will be looking for a place.
We couldn’t have been more impressed. They were honest and thorough. They didn’t jerk us around and have our late model car with a lot of miles running like a dream. Highly recommend.
The mechanic was very nice and helpful, even when I called in on very short notice. He unscrewed and changed me license plate without charging me for it.
Fair mechanics that do good work. They will work with you and help you find affordable options to most problems.
I have tried twice to take my wifes car here for a state inspection. We have even called ahead to see when theyll be open. Both times, theyve been closed.
Quality work, repairs on my car were great. They charge a fair price, give personalized service, remember your name, and are super friendly. Theyll work with you to get your car in shape for a reasonable price. Great experience overall
This place is legit and super honest in every way possible. Mr. Calfo and especially Bob are great people who genuinely care for their customers and cars. They always and only charge for the time it actually takes them to get the job done, and the prices are affordable compare to other places. Aside from that, they are willing to listen to you and spend some time explaining every detail of what is wrong. As a dead broke graduate student, it was an honored to be served by Bob, who is as honest as a mechanic can possibly get. My used car has a ton of problems (I knew this beforehand), but Bob would only tell me the important components to fix instead of luring me into fixing everything like some other mechanics that I spoke to.
Calfos will always be my go to auto shop in Pittsburgh. Everyone is friendly, knowledgeable, and very honest. They will never charge you for anything your vehicle doesnt need. Several times I have thought my car needed a repair it didnt, and every time they refused to do work that wasnt needed. I would recommend them to anyone - and refuse to go anywhere else.
Weve been going to calfos for years. Theyre trustworthy, dont try to sell you stuff you dont need, fast and professional. Weve tried pretty much all the auto places in Greenfield and squirrel Hill and calfos is our favorite.
Ive been taking our cars here and at their previous location for almost 15 years now. Ive dealt with many shops in my lifetime, and feel genuinely lucky to have one of this caliber in my neighborhood. The folks here are friendly, honest, and no nonsense. Looking for a local shop? Look no further.
They detailed our car. It looked brand new and we thought the price was fair. Highly recommend Calfo.Due to their excellent work with our detailing, we now have our cars serviced by them too. And are very satisfied.
The people here are so honest! I have gone to them about 3-4 times and will continue going because they are so great! Going here means that you know your car will be OK on the road and that the work done on your car is good quality work!
Had a great experience here. The guys fit me in when I called, spent time to explain what had to be fixed, charged a fair price for parts and labor and stuck around for an extra hour or two after closing so I could pick up my car the same day. Havent interacted with many businesses of this quality. Just a great auto shop all around.
Ive been taking my cars here for years and have had nothing but great experiences. They are knowledgeable and get the job done right for a good price. I would reccomend them to anyone.
I got a citation for having my inspection WAY past do. They not only inspected my car and fixed it at an amazing price, they recommended how I should proceed with the citation in court. Very kind guys, very fair prices, and will be recommending this place to my family and friends.
Down to earth, trustworthy, prices are good.
Best mechanic in the city. Honest. Amicable. Reliable. Just make sure to call a week ahead of when you want your car worked on because theyre usually pretty booked up.
Ive been bringing my car here for years. As a young female, being treated respectfully and fairly in an auto shop is unfortunately not always the case but at Calfos Ive never once experienced anything but professional, honest and fair service. Frankly this family own business will bend over backwards to help in anyway they can and will be straight with you regarding what is feasible and keep their word. I cant say enough good things about this place. Service like this in an auto shop is hard to find.
Great customer service reasonable repair prices
Theyre very responsible, safety above all. The group is highly experienced, helpful, polite. Unbelievably fair prices. Ive been a client for 15 years
I cant say enough good things about Calfos. They are extremely honest and do great work at fair prices with really quick turnaround. They know how expensive car repairs can be and so if there is a way they can get parts cheaper, they will let us know so we have options.
Calfos Auto Service is the best garage Ive ever dealt with. They have friendly and honest employees, fair and reasonable prices, and always excellent and competent service. I highly recommend Calfos for any of your cars needs, be it inspection, repairs, or just routine maintenance.
I have been coming to this shop since 2009 and I cannot say enough good things about it. The guys are so incredibly helpful, honest and fair. They never take advantage and are always willing to go above and beyond. I wholeheartedly recommend Calfos to anyone.
Honest people and very good business. Had 3 issues with my vehicle, took it to Monro Auto and got a quote of $1,600 to fix all 3 problems. Not to mention I was told I had to get all 3 done and couldnt get 1 or 2 of the more severe problems done to reduce the cost. So I took it to Califos and they got me back on the road for $120. Turns out I really only had one problem and wouldve gotten ripped off by Monro. 🙂
Great guys, especially Rich! They do their job, very knowledgeable, and do not charge for small things. It is a great pleasure to deal with them!
Great guys! Their workmanship is top notch.
Been going to this family business for years. Trusted professionals with good prices.
Its hard to overstate the value of an honest mechanic. These guys are helpful and flexible, and theyve gone out of their way to help me out.
Took my 2007 Hyundai Tucson to NTB (National Tire & Battery) for an oil change. After getting under the car and checking it out, the manager at NTB came into the waiting room and told me I had a bad oil leak. I asked him how serious, told me he didn’t want to deal with the liability of making it worse told me to kick rocks and he was going to pretend like he didn’t see me and to take it somewhere else. NTB wouldn’t even give me an estimate. Sketchy folks over there (the one on Penn Avenue FYI). I literally had just bought this car.Called Calfo’s. He was super busy with other clients, but he listened to everything I told him, asked a few followup questions, and even managed to get me in next day. They found the leak quickly, fixed it, changed my oil for me, noticed my license plate bulbs were out, and replaced those as well. Called me throughout the day to keep me posted on repairs.I had my car back the next day. He recommended I bring it in a month later just to make sure the fix held. It did, and he didn’t charge for the follow up visit. Car is running great and the price wasn’t bad at all.Stop looking for a better mechanic shop. You’re wasting your time, take it to Calfo’s.
Good guys, great service--Im a girl and I know my car, and the prices charged for the work Ive had done have been fair and Ive never been talked down to (sigh, a frequent problem at many garages). I absolutely recommend these guys--took me a while to find a good place in PGH, and Ill never go elsewhere.They ALWAYS show me the old parts whenever they replace something, Ive NEVER had issues with the parts theyve installed, they provide good information concerning their diagnostic processes and theyre honest and on time.
Good service. Low wait times. Good price.
Fantastic service! Went in because I started hearing a noise when turning right. The owner took a drive in my car to check the problem out for free and diagnosed and fixed the problem immediately. Reasonable prices, and quality work.
Extremely fast service, extremely friendly people, extremely reasonable price, extremely good place! The people here are so accommodating. Once I got in a fender bender that crumpled the hood of my car and bent the hood latch A body shop wanted over $1000 to fix it, but Calfos charged me like $80 to straighten the hood AND bend the hood latch back into place. I cant recommend these guys enough.
A true joy to work with. Honest, high quality work, and above all great people.
TERRIBLE.... After having work done at Calfos for an outrageous price (above what it would cost to have the dealer do the same exact work), I took my car to be looked at by another repair shop. They showed me that Calfos glued on my old parts, when they charged me for brand new parts. When I called to inform the owner of this, the man on the phone called me a fagot and told me to be a man and come down to his shop in person. I was outraged. They charged me for parts that were never installed on my car. I work very hard for my money and do not understand this outright theft. Do not trust the positive reviews posted online about Calfos. They all sound as if they were written by the people at Calfos. Their website talks largely about how you should trust them. DO NOT TRUST THIS BUSINESS.
Great service. Honest owner. Calfos goes above and beyond to keep their customers happy. I highly recommend them!
I trust Rossie and his Crew to do all majors and minors on my Tacoma:) id see them for Oils and other small items if he were closer and open weekends. i recommend this shop without hesitation.
Very poor service!! Broke down near his shop. Got towed there bc it was the closest shop witch happened to be Calfos Auto. Car was there going on 3 weeks. Kept giving me the run around about we are still doing testing on it. Then they finally found the issue and gave me a price that was threw the roof. Then when I called he said sorry it was hard to find a used part. But when he gave me my quote he said that was for new parts. So when I asked him why the price didn’t change for the now used parts. He said just come get your car. Took it to another places was on road in 2 days and $500.00 cheaper.
Honest and thorough shop. Wont pad the bill. Always fair. Always polite. Ive been going here for years for everything from inspection to wheel bearing replacements.
Been going here since I was driving 16 years old excellent service quality work
They were very unprofessional. They had my vehicle for three weeks and did not begin to fix my vehicle. I call to check to see when my vehicle would be ready for pick up and they told me it would double the price they quoted me, and still they did not begin to fix my vehicle... They are very Unprofessional!!!!!!!!
Honest, reliable, friendly, quality work done quickly and at a reasonable cost.
Great service. Fair prices. Good people. Old school shop.
Just got back from getting our SUV fixed at Calfos and I would recommend it to anyone who asked. They got us in as soon as we got there, and when what we thought was just a battery issue turned out to be an alternator issue, they were very upfront about pricing and got it fixed as soon as possible. We will be taking the vehicle there for any future maintenance.
Amazing place with trustworthy mechanics. Ive been brining my car here for years and could not be happier with Calfos. The guys are great and only do whats necessary to get you back on the road again!
Took five hours for inspection and was way out of the ballpark for what I was expecting to pay. Nice people but will not be going back
Wonderful service, reasonable pricing. This is a great place to have your car serviced.
I havent actually had work done yet (budget issues), but just from speaking to them on the phone numerous times, I will be going to them. They were all very helpful, friendly and it was obvious they like what theyre doing. I look forward to bringing my car to them when I get the money together.
Friendly and fast service. Great place to get your car inspected, didnt make up stuff to pad the bill.
My favorite place to take my cars/ trucks for service! They do a great job for a good price!
Because honesty is important when it comes to mechanics
Fair and honest work. Great communication. Takes their time and gets it right.
I took my car to Calfos to get it inspected. The owner was pleasant and my car was taken care of in a reasonable amount of time. I will go back.
So easy to schedule my car in. Did everything he could and got out hardcore scratches from my kayak sitting on the top of my car. This thing is 10 years old but youd never know!
State inspected. Did it here without any problems.
Me and my dad have gone here for a while now, some of the nicest and honest people.
Called to schedule work to be performed they took my number down and said Ill hear from him in a hour. Never reached back out to me.
Get people, very accommodating and quick repairs. Car runs better than ever after a visit!
HIGHLY recommended!!! truthful and thorough business as well as the staff!
Good guys, great work who could ask for more. They are a busy shop so make an appointment ahead of time
Honest work and reasonable prices
Good for maintenance, inspections, and repairs - honest and reasonably priced
Honest, reliable and responsibly priced auto service.
Fair prices, friendly service, and great work, best mechanic in the city
Quick after I got an appointment, reasonable price.
The wonderful guys at Calfos are the best mechanics in Pittsburgh! I will return again and again.
There are three people you should be on a first-name basis with: your doctor, your butcher, and your mechanic. Reege, Bobby, and the rest of the crew are the mechanics you should be on a first-name basis with. From routine maintenance to figuring out tricky intermittent problems, these guys know their stuff.
Fair prices and good work.
Great shop!
Trustworthy and do the job right
Always take my car here.
Honest, quick, and well priced.
Nice guys
Excellent work and on time
Fantastic service !!
Great service
