I relocated to the Seattle area from the East Coast and began the search of finding a new mechanic. I am happy to say I have found one. Dino's (formerly Cleveland Street Auto) combines excellent prices with integrity. I have had two very positive experiences for work on my '98 Honda Accord. When my horn stopped working Dino checked the horn first (they tend to fill up with water here in the NW). When that proved fine he moved on to the next most logical culprit - the clock spring in the steering column. When that failed to fix the problem, Dino did not charge me for either the part or the labor. It turned out to be a defect in the airbag/horn (a $700 part) which was replaced and which I paid a very fair $100 in labor. While it was an expensive horn repair, Dino was more than fair, beginning with the most likely and cheapest fix and moving up as needed. Prior to the horn repair, I had my brakes done and received (after calling around the area) a very competitive price that included resurfacing the rotors where the other shops did not. You will find that Dino manages not only an honest and well priced shop, he also understands that his business is a service industry. You will appreciate the friendly welcome and just as important, you will be treated with respect and above and beyond personal serivce. FYI - I also noticed a review on another site that was also stellar. This shop deserves all its stars.
