“Very good customer service. Andrew very detailed & he explained how everything works & how it’s done awesome guy. I definitely will be back. Please check them out.”
“Trust me this is the best car guy to go to in Los Angeles. I am a woman and I'm also an audio engineer, and so I got so sick of the dealers lying to me about things that I know electronically are complete BS even though I don't know cars specifically. My neighbor had a 90s Jeep that just kept running, so i asked him who to go to and he recommended Rafi at Sniper. Every time I bring my car to him he charges me half or a quarter what a dealer or another car mechanic in this neighborhood has quoted me. And every time the car ends up driving way better when he does it than anybody else. This place takes real pride in their work and you can tell that they just tighten all the right bolts. I also really appreciated that when I first met Anu, one of the main workers under Rafi, he was working on my brakes and I started asking questions and he just lit up so happy to show me how things worked and explain. He has the really warm Vibes of like a dad or a grandpa who really wanted to show you his craft. These guys are honest and hard-working and they know their stuff and I could not recommend them more highly.”
“I think this is the friendliest gas station i have ever been in the past 20 years. I wonder why ppl there are so positive and friendly, always make my day! Thank you!”
“Very friendly and helpful staff. I got a nail in my tire. They quickly examined the situation and removed it. Fortunately there was no serious damage. They checked there was no leak and added air to my tires”
“Saved the day! Edwin took care of my dying alternator late in the day on a Saturday. I had work on Sunday, so without him, I wouldn’t be able to drive! I bought my own alternator (thankfully in stock at autozone), and it was done within an hour. Labor was reasonably priced. So thankful they could help me out on short notice.”
“I stopped at United Oil while in Los Angeles, and it was a convenient place to fuel up and grab a few essentials. In a city where quick stops can sometimes turn into long waits, this location was easy to access and surprisingly efficient. The gas station itself was clean and well maintained. The pumps were in good condition, and there was enough room to move around without feeling cramped, which can be a challenge at some Los Angeles stations. I didn’t have to wait long for a pump, and the payment process was straightforward. Everything worked smoothly, which made it a simple stop during a busy day. Inside, the convenience store had a solid selection. I picked up a drink and a snack, and there were more options than I expected. Shelves were stocked well, and the layout was easy to navigate. It felt organized, which made getting in and out quick. The cashier was polite, and checkout moved without delay. What stood out most was how practical the stop felt. It wasn’t anything overly fancy, but it did exactly what you want from a gas station — easy fueling, a clean store, and quick service. That reliability matters, especially when you’re driving around Los Angeles and don’t want to waste time searching for another place. I also noticed several local customers stopping in, which usually says something about consistency. It seemed like a place regular drivers use because they know what to expect. The overall experience was smooth and uncomplicated. If you’re in Los Angeles, CA and need a quick stop for gas, drinks, or snacks, United Oil is worth considering. It’s efficient, accessible, and made a routine errand much easier. I’d definitely stop there again next time I’m driving through the area.”
“Yesterday the pump I was on ran out of gas and the lady that was working was very friendly and helped me clear things out and get into another pump and finish getting the rest of my gas. Great place”
“Just visited Ron today to check on my car! My engine light was on! He was so helpful and friendly! Gave me peace of mind after being worried about my car for two days! I will recommend this place and would be back here for other services!”

“there service was amazing , and supper fast . legit saved my life ! will be coming back here in the future for all tire need . legit the best in south LA . Everything at a great price to.”
“gas station w pretty cool people, not much weirdos for a place in The Jungles. i met a dude who said he was doing a song w YG, shout out to him. and they sell pickles.10/10.”
“Came here with my family after going to see the Hollywood sign and to the Funko store had to get gas and was pleasantly surprised by a clerk, name Firoz, who is incredibly pleasant and nice and helpful to my family. Highly recommend stopping at this gas station good little place”
“Rented a Uhaul here and was helped by Panda. She was amazing and went over and beyond to help us. Extremely patient and even git people on her phone for us to get things squared away. Thank you for your help girl! 🙏”
“Ashish has great customer service I love coming to this gas station. He’s very respectable was able to let me use the bathroom and now I’m a pay customer so this is a good gas station to come by if you need it.”
“We love to come to this gas station, gas is well priced and the service is always exceptional. Plus they provide car washes and they can air up your tires for free.”
“This place is really affordable with the gas prices when everyone else is gouging your eyes out they also have a deal where if you put $30 of gas you get a free soda or a free coffee they also sell propane tanks and a lot of different cool things inside the store definitely recommend for affordable gas prices and great service”
“As of today, 26th of February, 2026, the cost per gallon of propane is $2.75 + tax (9.75% City of Los Angeles). It averages out to approximately $3.00 per gallon of propane. No minimum purchase required. Must be over 18 or 21 to purchase. The two handsome Spanish & English speaking service guys were very clean, helpful and friendly. If they are slow and no lines, they will even help you with your propane tank(s) to your car ?, truck ?, van ?, roach ? coach or shopping ? cart! Note: The other place down the street on 14th Street and Alameda that also sold propane for $2.89/Gallon has closed down. Hope this helps. If you're reading this review and the cost of propane per gallon has either gone up or down at this location, please update price via a review to make it more current and of great help to others! Perhaps the same way this review might have been of some help to you and many others. Happy BBQ Grilling, Food Truck Hopping and/or Propane Forklift Driving! Cheers my smart El Cheapo Angeleno shoppers!”
“Milo (mechanic) fixed the check engine light and drove my car himself to get it to pass smog, he’s very personable and knows what he’s doing. I recommend him.”
“cheap gas and very accurate in the petrol meter it is very helpful if u calculate your gas via per mileage per gallon .. so u don't run out with a gas tank meter saying u got gas lol”
“Very good price every day, less cheap than Chevron or other super expensive gas station, and the gasoline is ok, not like Arco... because a lot of rumors said that Arco is not good gasoline”
“It is the gas station with the lowest prices despite being in an area where people have money. I visited it very often and many uneducated customers arrive, disrespecting the cashiers. Older people confuse a smile with a Bulgarian customer without respect. Good price and good deal”
“Sako & Vic are the best mechanics in town! I’ve been a customer for several years and they always give me a fair deal and fix my cars correctly. If you’re looking for an honest mechanic who will fix your car right the first time come here. Thanks again for all the great service throughout the years Hollywood Mobile Auto Care.”
“Absolutely love this gas station! The staff is always super friendly, and they keep the place clean and well-organized. Plus, the convenience store has everything I need for those quick stops. Highly recommend!”
“Busy intersection overall was happy to see the Chevron sign/colors. I only use Chevron. I've never seen the gas pump illuminated on any vehicle I've owned until 6 days ago. I prayed to make it to a Chevron station, God made a way. Thankful for Z & P Oil Chevron #309226 at La Cienega and Jefferson in Los Angeles CA...Ahmed was the helpful cashier. Highly Recommend Chevron gas ⛽”
“The price at one gas station is lower than at the other. That is why I always pick them to fill up my car with gas. Additionally, their staff is the most accommodating. A big thank you!”
“Wow! Way behind on writing this review. Have been visiting this spot for gas for so many years. Prices are always very competitive. Has a great store with huge selection and neat shelves of cool diecast toys for impulse buys. Have been seeing the cool tanks and other awesome vehicles for so long, taken it for granted, but always fun to see what gets added to collection. A real gem here!”
“I had such a great experience here today! I just bought my car and this was my very first time getting a car wash, so I wasn’t sure what to do. Rual was incredibly kind and helpful. He helped drive my car in, showed me how to choose the right option, and even stayed with me through the whole process to guide me. I really appreciated his patience and support — it made my first car wash experience smooth and stress-free. Highly recommend this place!”
“I mean it's a gas station? What else is there to say lol. I don't go inside, I use my debit but the premium gas is pretty cheap compared to other arcos.”
“Remarkable customer service. I was on a rush, on 10/11 I got service on this station but unfortunately I couldn't get the cashiers name. But she was extremely nice and professional , I was impressed. She did a excellent job, offering discounts, offers, bonuses. Idk her name, but I share my receipt so the owner can give her a promotion, or at least , congrat her for her absolutely wonderful job. Very pleased and making this station my favorite on the area.”

Sheetz Inc., the Pennsylvania-based convenience store chain, is making big moves in the Motor City. The company announced plans to open four more locations across metro Detroit, weeks before opening its first Michigan location.

Love's Travel Stops is rolling out a new system that turns work into a game for its restaurant employees. Picture this: Three big screens in each restaurant, tracking how fast workers greet customers, take orders, and hand out food. It's not just for show - early results say it's making service 11 seconds faster on average. "These monitors track key performance metrics in real-time, such as greet times, order processing times and the time it takes for food handoff," Love's explains. The system creates a more interactive environment, fostering friendly competition between stores.
