No nonsense car mechanic with generally lower prices compared to other nearby mechanics. Very responsive via email for setting up the appointment and throughout. Best form of contact. This visit was my first time but I’ll be back. Highly recommended!

I just recently went to Capital Hill Auto for my 2017 Mercedes C300 and I can't say enough positive things about Chris and his team. From the beginning I knew the experience would be very positive. When I had car issues while driving, I had my car towed to the shop I typically use for my standard servicing, after running a diagnostic they told me that I'd have to find another shop to fix my car b/c they were not comfortable doing the work that was required. I reached out to Chris and he was able to have my car towed from the current shop to his within a day and gave me the diagnosis the following day. After taking my numerous questions we settled on the work we'd move forward with and my car was ready pretty soon after. I was surprised by how quickly the turnaround was b/c I had a multitude of issues that needed to be fixed (Engine Misfire & Cooling/Evap systems fault). As far as parking, he goes out of his way to try and park your car in an area that does not require permits - to avoid getting tickets. Thanks for being extremely helpful and transparent! I have found my go to shop for anything cars.

I was recommended Chris by multiple colleagues, and they weren't wrong! I brought a car in for a pre-purchase inspection. Communication throughout the process was easy, very responsive to emails. Very fast turn around for service. Pick up was easy. Price was great compared to a couple other places I had called in the area.

They are an ok garage. I went in for an engine light and 3k later they suggested I replace the engine. I didn't go that route, and the truck and repairs they made seem to be working fine so far. The owner is not personable, but he is professional. Consider this before using them; they have a significant parts mark-up, and parking is tough. They stuck me with a parking ticket after they parked my truck in an area you could not park. When I brought it to their attention, that professional response time was now non-existent. This was just my experience and might not reflect the garage as a whole. I won't use them again, but your experience might be different.

The best mechanic in the District of Columbia. I have been going to Chris at Capitol Hill Auto Service for over 7 years now. He has the best prices, shop hours, and service. He has worked on my 2005 Audi A6, 2010 Honda Civic, and 2015 Acura TLX. 10/10 would recommend to any and everyone looking for a new TRUSTWORTHY mechanic.

Extremely rude customer service made for an unpleasant experience at Capitol Hill Auto Services. I had asked that all services and prices be approved by me before work began and this was not honored. I was charged for work I had not approved the price of and was not satisfied. Was treated very rudely by staff when this was addressed, despite email receipts of my request. I would not recommend this establishment.

Chris and the team at Capitol Hill Auto are hands down the best in the business. From the moment you walk in, you're treated with honesty, professionalism, and genuine care. They go above and beyond to make sure you understand what’s going on with your vehicle—no jargon, no pressure, just clear explanations and top-notch service.
The work itself is fast, reliable, and priced fairly. Whether it’s routine maintenance or more complex repairs, I trust Capitol Hill Auto completely. I wouldn’t take my car anywhere else. If you're looking for an honest mechanic who truly cares, go see Chris and the crew. You’ll be glad you did!

I needed to have a tail light installed. I ordered the part online and Cap Hill Auto Service installed the part for me for no charge. They were courteous and efficient. I definitely will go back to them for an oil change or other car repairs.

First rate. None better, whether Porsche, Triumph, Cadillac, Volvo, Chevy or anything else. Late model or classic. Banger or speedster. I’ve driven and needed service for all of these over 50 years, and Capitol Hill is the best.
