“Had the pleasure this morning to stop in and meet Amar. He’s the new owner of this Arco AM-PM . This is without a doubt, the cleanest convenience store I have ever been in. Besides that they have a huge selection of ground fresh coffee. Also, they have a special for $.99 for a 12 ounce coffee! I don’t often write reviews, but this establishment is a standout. Good luck, Amar. I know this new business will flourish.”

“I only booked an interior cleaning, but they also washed the exterior as a complimentary service. Even aside from that, this was hands down the best car detailing experience I’ve ever had. The staff were incredibly friendly and professional. My friends had spilled Coke inside the car, so I was worried about the stain and smell, but they completely transformed it—the car came back looking spotless and smelling amazing! Highly recommended!”

“8. It went down to $1.63 lol I just want it on record: April 26, 2026 and CNG is $1.64 a PPGE. Just dropped from $2.16. Average gasoline prices are almost hitting $6 in this county! This station makes driving a CNG vehicle so worth it! Won't find cheaper anywhere close. Double the price, at least, in San Marcos and San Diego (still cheaper than gasoline tho). $20 bucks fills up my full size truck .... amazing! ??”

“I was getting off work late tonight and I needed to fuel up. Luckily, this 76 was fairly close to I decided to go here. The business is open 24/7 and so are the restrooms. The place is very clean and has a wide selection of snacks. As far as drinks go, they mostly only have Gatorade and energy drinks, and some vitamin waters, and they're fairly expensive compared to other gas stations. The Gatorade's were 2 for $5.50. The cashier was very sweet, she gave me the key to the restroom no problem and I'm impressed to say the restroom was very clean. I probably wouldn't fuel up here regularly though considering that gas is $4.99 and up, considering if you get the cheapest option, but if you're looking for a clean, professional gas station with restrooms open at all hours, this is where to go! They also have a f'freal milkshake machine. I really do love these milkshakes and it's hard to find a gas station with one of these machines that work. They are just regular milkshakes that you can pick your flavor and blend to your liking. The chocolate is my favorite.”
9205 Twin Trails Drive, San Diego CA 92129
“Noy is amazing! Always has a smile and ready to help, has answers to questions and just makes transactions easy in general, I get beer at this location and EVERYTIME she's smiling having good conversations with the customers! She's one of the reasons I pick this store to stop at! Such good energy ! She needs a raise”

“I stopped here while on my way home and was filling up my car. There was a guy at the pump next to me doing what looked to be martial arts. Then he kick flipped off the pole and continued waving his arms around. My friend and I were watching him as he took the nozzle off the pump, pays, chooses a grade of fuel, and splashes it in his mouth. He spits it out, chooses another grade, and starts guzzling it… After he decided he was done mouth washing with fuel, and he hadn’t even gassed up his car yet, he sped off. The employees were also incredibly shaken at what we witnessed. Great and kind employees though, clean store, four stars”
805 Birmingham Drive, Cardiff CA 92007

“This is the first time I've ever left a review for a gas station, and it's well deserved. I stopped by this ampm in San Diego and was genuinely impressed. I watched one of the employees scrubbing the side panels between the gas pumps by hand. I've honestly never seen that level of attention to cleanliness at a gas station before. The entire property was spotless, the staff was incredibly friendly, the fuel prices were great, and everything was well maintained. It's clear the team takes a lot of pride in keeping this place clean and welcoming. If you're in the area, definitely stop by and support them. They truly deserve a five-star review. I was also impressed by how clean San Diego is overall—I even saw city crews washing the streets earlier. Southern California has definitely made a great impression on me.”
12889 El Camino Real, San Diego CA 92130
“I don't find myself writing my reviews about gas stations, but I had to end this situation. That cashier here was very nice. I needed to use a restroom really bad so I came in here and asked if I could use the restroom. The cashier was not only friendly but it was very welcoming, which is a big detour from what you get at your typical gas station. The restroom was very clean which I appreciated. This review is not only for their incredible cashier or sanitary restrooms but for their convenience. This is one of the few gas stations in the area so I come here a lot. They provide you with water and air if you need it for no cost which is rare these days. The prices here are not too bad considering the neighborhood and scarcity of gas stations in the area. This gas station does get busy though so try and come at slower times.”
16095 San Dieguito Road, Rancho Santa Fe CA 92067
