Looking at the reviews, this garage does not need another 5 star review. However, Nates Green Garage deserves it. 5 stars. I brought my Prius in for a few things that needed attention. I'd never been there but felt as if I'd been servicing my car there for years...Fast, friendly, efficient, and honest. Nates the man.

Easy 5 star review. I was recommended by my mom, she has been bringing her cars to Nate for a while and really appreciates his approach and quality of service along with honest and straight forward pricing.My mom's recommendation was enough for me, but if you look at all of his other reviews, you can see he is legit! And there are probably hundreds of people who take their vehicles to Nate's that haven't written yelp reviews.I took in my hybrid Lexus for him to take a look at and diagnose. I was having issues with my car starting consistently. He got it fixed and I haven't had any issues since.Next time I have any issues or if I need a tune up or anything, Nate's will be my first option.Nate is down to earth, honest, and a huge asset to anyone that has car issues and wants to feel comfortable with turning their car over to his care. You are in great hands with Nate's Green Garage.

Likely the least expensive shop anywhere in the bay area, for sure! Only catch is, and I think it's a good thing, only Japanese vehicles are allowed as Toyota/Lexus require special fluids to run properly.Do not let a non-qualified ordinary mechanic work on your car nor any drive-thru quick oil changers flush your fluids as it likely won't be the right type/quality of fluid needed for your Toyota/Lexus.I only wish I knew of Nate's shop 3 years ago when I bought my Lexus with 76k miles on it. Dealership wants easily twice as much as what Nate charges! Dealerships are a rip off so I'd highly recommend to stop going to them unless it's under warranty.Only draw back with Nate is that his schedule is usually two weeks booked so call when you still got some time to wait to get serviced! You'll save lots of $$$$! Thanks Nate!

I came to the shop with a question about a repair to an electric vehicle. It turned out to be a repair that that they don't usually handle, but Nate was very kind and gave me some suggestions. That's the kind of folks I like to do business with.

Nate's Green Garage is the best and only repair shop that we trust with our vehicle. Nate is very kind, knowledgeable, reasonably priced, and takes the time to tell you the issues with your vehicle rather than trying to upcharge you for unnecessary repairs. Thank you for always being the best mechanic in town!

Thoughtful, knowledgeable, honest! Local ownership who knows Prius inside and out!Can talk about his own Prius as an example which he's owned for many years! I was recommended for service at his shop and I now recommend him to others.

I know Nate for many years, I'm 67 years old, and all these years my family and I have been used his service. He and his team are honest and most efficient professionals that we ever met. We have had excellent experiences with our cars and Nate's integrity and professionalism. We can guarantee that you will have your vehicle in great hands, work well done, and your satisfaction. You will agree with this statement!

This place is a scam despite the great reviews, don't go, especially if you have out of state plates or don't know much about cars because they'll try to take advantage of you (I just moved to the area and am a woman in my 20s who doesn't know much about cars with out of state plates). I came by for a regular inspection, oil change, and asked them to look over the car since I'd just driven it cross country. They tried to tell me I needed $2000 worth of work including new front and rear brakes, rotors, calipers, my battery was leaking, and I needed new spark plugs (in addition to a changing fluids and filters, which would have been reasonable if it was just that). I keep the records of what work I got done and the rear brakes and spark plugs were both done less than a year ago. I also had the car checked six weeks before I brought it in by a mechanic my family has gone to for over 30 years who knew I was driving cross country and would absolutely have caught a problem with the brakes. When I told Nathan about the recent work I'd had done he lied again, this time to my face, even going so far as to tell me my car was unsafe to drive. The battery was clearly such an important issue that he even forgot to write it down on the recommended work that needed to be done even though he mentioned it a few times on the phone.I took my car two days later to a different mechanic shop nearby that was recommended by someone who has lived in the area for years and there's absolutely no safety issues with my brakes. Don't go here, if he tries to sell you on major work, especially on your first visit, get a second opinion and if you do get them to do the work ask for your parts back - just a guess, but he might be a less willing to do the work if he isn't able to steal those and use them on someone else's car.Service: General repairs & maintenance

Hesitate to say just how satisfied we are with Nate and his team over the years for fear of making it harder to schedule him, but we couldn't be happier and we are truly grateful for he and his team's excellent service.

I brought my Honda to Nate's Green garage partly because my nephew works there and partly for the great reviews. Well, I'm happy to say I made the right decision to bring it to Nate's . These guys are the real deal! Honest, trustworthy and they know their craft. Always give you sound advice and they tell you exactly what your car needs.

I needed a new mechanic for my Lexus after my included services were all complete at the dealership. Nathan was responsive, fairly priced and completed my maintenance quickly. His shop is conveniently located with lots of great stores and cafes nearby if you want to stick around during your service. I am so happy to have found my new place!

Best mechanic at the most reasonable price, great experience and excellent work. I was thrilled to have found Nate's and he did my front brakes and changed the transmission fluid today.The 5 star reviews are well deserved.

This review is long overdue. It’s probably a genetic defect, but when I think about cars, my mind fills with white noise. Thankfully, Nate has the intelligence and expertise that I’m missing.However, more than a car expert, Nate is a thoughtful and kind human.For example, the day before I had to go out of town, my car started exhibiting alarming behaviors. I needed a quick diagnosis and fix. And although he was slammed, Nate squeezed me in. And he was thoughtful and friendly.I don’t expect people to go above and beyond in this way, but I notice and appreciate it when it happens. And I think it deserves special mention. So here’s my special mention, a few months late.Thank you, Nate.Services: Battery
