My go-to. Look at all these 5-star reviews - normally that would be sus but Top Japanese Auto is the real deal. Their prices are low too. One time he quoted a price range over the phone for installing a specific item, and the final price actually was the minimum of that range. Imagine that, an estimate range that actually comes out slightly high. Another time, someone dented our bumper and all he did was kick it and the big dent popped inside out and looked good as new. I mean he could have easily said we needed a new bumper and we wouldn't have known any better. Also not bad with scheduling and being able to squeeze you in when possible. Two thumbs up!

Honest. Expert. Professional. Reasonably priced.When was the last time a mechanic talked you out of a repair?We had a variety of "renovation" work done to an older Toyota. Tae pointed out all the issues that needed fixing, yet gently talked us out of work we had suggested that was really unnecessary, and explained why.These guys are a true rarity. Go there. You will not regret it.

I have called around and compared prices at DC-area auto repair shops for a variety of services (brake pad replacement, etc), and Top Japanese Auto consistently has the lowest prices. This shop will take care of you promptly and efficiently - I really strongly recommend them.

Great shop. I had my Subaru STI worked on here twice and both of the times the service was great and quick too. I love how they use Oem parts and talk to you about your options. Any folks in the dmv that needs work done I highly recommend. Plus he has some sweet 300zx in the shop too

I cannot say enough good things about Top Japanese Auto in Falls Church. We first brought two cars in for brake pads/new brakes. They fixed the breaks quickly and the cost was VERY reasonable. Then, yesterday my daughter noticed a thumping/grinding noise in the engine of one of our cars. It was very loud. Brought the car in to have it looked at - turns out a tree branch was stuck close to one of the rotors making the noise. They removed the tree branch and the noise is gone. Did not charge me at all for the diagnosis and fix. AMAZING!!! The relief on my daughter's was also priceless. THANK YOU SO MUCH - this is now our permanent go to for any car issues. I want to add I don't write these kind of reviews, but this is how happy I have been anytime we've brought our cars in for service. Also, front desk person is so incredibly kind!

Don't be fooled by the exterior, this shop is the place to go for any car repairs! Tae is friendly, personable, and professional. This shop has helped me many times and saved me plenty of money. If you are picky about parts or like OEM parts, you can specify that and he will make it a point to get the parts you need. I have had basic oil changes, brakes/rotors, wheel bearings, and headlight bulbs, filters changed here. They are the BEST VALUE and most HONEST mechanics I know, he will not recommend unnecessary repairs to you. Tae will take the time to explain why work needs to be done and give you different options. There is no pressure or deceitful tactics like most mechanics like to do (especially when you're a woman this happens a lot). It is also easily accessible near downtown falls church! If you like to support local, family/minority-owned businesses, this is one of them to add to your list.

Keeping my Toyota as long as possible. Had some work done on the wheel liner and alternator. Good honest shop. Tae is very knowledgeable on Toyos and I would recommend this business without hesitation. 2010 Toy Venza running like a top.

The best. I have been taking my cars here for over 4 years and have always received great service. I trust them completely and Tae has never tried to upsell me for additional repairs. They have been working on my Honda and Toyota and when the warranty on my wife’s Ford expired I now bring it hereI rarely post a review but I know it can be difficult to find an auto shop that you trust and feel comfortable with. Hope this helps anyone looking for a recommendationServices: Auto exhaust system repair

First time at JAC and I an very pleased with the job they did. I knew before going in what was wrong with my car and they didn't tell me any different. They were efficient and professional!
