If you can get in to their schedule here, you should. They take care of everything I need and only what I absolutely need, without the high price tags some of the repair shops charge. I’m in here 2–3 times a year but have recommended this place to my friends and family a lot.

good

Excellent work, friendly, with fair pricing. Have been a satisfied customer for many years.

I am a native to manatee county and I have finally found a great mechanic, I highly recommend anyone who is in the market for a new one to have them do some work and just see for yourself how pleasant it is doing work with them. Will be back plenty…


Sep 07, 2024

It was my first time there. I think they are honest and only suggest the repairs if absolutely needed.


Aug 07, 2024

Courteous, fair, good communication. Eager to make things right.

This place is a hidden gem. I came here for a second opinion... previously I was told that my compressor had failed which was the cause of my AC blowing hot air. Upon arrival the staff were incredibly friendly and very much invested in finding a solution, they asked many questions. Throughout the day they were very communicative with what they had found keeping me well within the loop. As it turned out the issue was not the compressor but rather something that had been moved out of place, something that most people wouldn't have found. I don't think I've ever dealt with such a seasoned team of experts that are this fair and incredibly diligent in their work. 100% recommended.

Frankie and Aaron have taken care of our cars for years now. When you want the job done right and at a fair price, this is the place in Sarasota. Highly recommended.


Jun 07, 2024

I called Automotive Service Garage solely based on their 5* reviews I found Online (which they lived up to 100%). They were able to schedule my appointment right the same day and in the end helped me out through the process of buying a new car. Very thankful to the entire team including Aaron who was always very kind and patient.

Your mechanic's "brilliant" idea to install a shorter belt and bypass the A/C system and a pully led to irreparable engine damage.


Apr 07, 2024

Aaron, Frankie and the staff are excellent. Rare mechanics that are honest and don't gauge you on pricing. Won't go anywhere else!


Mar 07, 2024

Cindy, Aaron, and Frankie run this place with so much knowledge and understanding. My car runs like it is brand new, and the pricing was more than fair. I am so thankful to have these people in my corner!! I recommend this shop to my entire family and friend group.


Feb 07, 2024

Can't comment on the quality of work, but very poor communication. I brought in my car for a couple of issues in early November 2023. They were not able to diagnose one of them due to it being rare/intermittent. Fine, ok. They found another problem which was that my oil pan has a leak. I was told that they found a part and that they will order and schedule the repair. It's been over two months now and nobody has reached out to me to let me know what's going on. Called them twice in the last two months and each time was told that they will find out what's going on with the part and get back to me, which they never did.


Feb 07, 2024

Great service.


Feb 07, 2024

Great shop, and honest! I highly recommend them. I had an oil leak and could not find it. They could have made something up, but it was just a loose filter. I also had them do work on my Jeep and they were very reasonable. As well as they are very knowledgeable, friendly and fast.


Feb 07, 2024

I found this shop through my church. And so glad I did. I now take all of my business fleet vehicles along with our personal vehicles to Frankie, Aaron, and their team. They are the gold standard in mechanics, and as honest is the day is long. I wouldn't go anywhere else.

My 2017 Chevy Tahoe had an engine light that had been on for 6 months. Jenkins Chevrolet couldn’t find what was causing it. Steve from Ralph’s Transmission referred me to Frankie, so I went with little hope. When I explained to Frankie what the issue was, he had this curious look and said “I make no promises but we love to figure stuff out, give me an hour”. Within that hour, his Ace Mechanic Pat found the problem. It turned out to be a wire that had been dislodged by a rodent. I highly recommend these guys and they are now our family auto repair shop. They are professional and trustworthy..


Feb 07, 2024

These guys get the job done, are trustworthy, and have competitive rates. The garage is clean, Aaron and Frankie run a pleasant and efficient front office, and the mechanics are top notch. My Honda, with over 100,000 miles, is running at its best and I feel safe and happy in it. Thank you to the team at Automotive Service Garage!

While on vacation at Siesta Key, my automobile required maintenance before I could proceed back home. Aaron at ASG came to help me. He went over all the potential reasons, components, costs, and prices with me. They were open and responsive to all of my inquiries. We travel safely back to our home after the repair. Mientras estaba de vacaciones en Siesta key, mi automovil requirio’ mantenimiento antes de que pudiera regresar a casa. Aaron en ASG chequeo’ todas las posibles causas del problema, components, costos y precios conmigo. Fueron abiertos y receptivos a todas mis consultas.Despues de reparado el carro ; viajamos seguros de regreso a nuestro hogar.


Feb 07, 2024

Word of mouth recommendations from 2 of my mechanic/neighbors. They nailed it. Honest & no guesswork. My new “go-to” for auto repair. Highly recommend.


Feb 07, 2023

Aaron and team accepted my walk-in when I was in a pinch and got some answers for me in short order so that I could get home to Indiana on-time. The process was smooth and friendly, and the price was on-point. Thanks for your help!


Feb 07, 2023

Awesome mechanic shop. Trustworthy. Economical,friendly.


Feb 07, 2023

The best guy/service EVER! High professional with high efficiency. Usually it's a pain for me to try to fix something especially dealing with medical services. But I enjoy being here to fix my car. Can you even imagine that? Unbelievable service.


Feb 07, 2022

Friendly and competent service. Aaron and Frankie are just a delight to interact with. Reasonable prices, much better than dealer’s. Will use them at every opportunity.


Feb 07, 2022

Fully satisfied. Thanks a lot;


Feb 07, 2022

Great customer service and kind. I feel so much safer in my vehicle.


Feb 07, 2022

I've been to a handful of auto repair /maintenance garages within the SRQ area whether it's for an oil change, replacing tires or diagnostic tests. While most of the others weren't bad, by any means, I can safely say I'll only bring my vehicle here. From the friendly greeting and open communication about the state of my car to the payment process all flowed seamlessly. Many thanks, guys!


Feb 07, 2022

They respect you and your time. All the good qualities you need in a mechanic. Super nice guys and extremely knowledgeable and professional. I will be back


Feb 07, 2022

This business is awesome! The staff is super nice and was so, so helpful. I will absolutely go back for any automotive needs! Definitely recommend!!


Feb 07, 2022

there are a few things in life that i really need - plumber, electrician, hvac and an auto mechanic. well i found my guy for this area and that's asg. aaron is a true professional. his demeanor and professionalism is top notch. i brought in my rav4 because of a grinding sound in my brakes. they took a look at them and my brake pads were fine. they found them to be a bit "dry" and gave the option of removing them and lubing them to remove that sound. in no way did they push this because they said the pads and rotors were functionally working properly. we went with their recommendation and the grinding sound is gone. their pricing and clear communication to make a proper decision was excellent. if you want an honest mechanic that does excellent work for a fair price, this is the place to come.
