glad i found this shop

I have been taking my car to Felix for the last 17 years for required maintenance and my car runs like a new one. Always the best service!

Miguel, thank you for 17 years of trust! We’re thrilled your car continues to run like new and truly appreciate your kind words about our service. We look forward to caring for it for years to come at Felix Auto Service.

Honest recommendations, repairs and maintenance are priced fairly, and the staff is very knowledgeable and friendly since I’ve been a customer for 5 years. I would highly suggest Felix Auto Service.

The dealership told me that I needed a 1400 dollar repair. The guys at Felix's auto shop looked at everything and said that I only needed a wheel alignment, not the $1400 ball and joint repair the dealership quoted

Kudos for a prompt, reliable and competent service! Great team to work with!

Wouldn’t trust my car to any other team!

Felix and his mechanics are the only shop I would take my car to in the area….they diagnosed a unique problem with my Infiniti and came back with a solution and a repair…they are experienced, skilled and honest…I recommend Felix to everybody looking for a mechanic to handle any repair or maintenance need for their vehicle.

Felix and his team are great troubleshooters if you need to find what is wrong. They communicate well and give your fair pricing. Best of all they do a good job. Follow up and the I have only had good experiences there.

Felix has been my mechanic for 30 years. He is outstanding. He is honest and the work is great.

Always phenomenal, always communicating clearly (especially with the text approval system), occasionally assisting with a ride if I don’t have one while my car is also being worked on, and more. Every time my car leaves the shop I can feel the improvement. It’s also an extra bonus that I know this shop goes to people who actually live in our community, not some giant multinational corporation.

They are taking care of my vehicle for many years and they are honestly the best place to have my vehicle serviced.

Took my car for oil change. The crew noticed an urgent issue that needed to be addressed. Got the repair done on the same day while also getting my oil changed. Appreciated how they explained the urgency.

Excellent service ! Get done as expected

I located Felix auto shop online and read very good reviews. I have to recommend them. They did a wonderful job. They are precise, organized and a group of nice people. Also checking prices around the area they were fairly priced more than some other shops. They explained thoroughly everything they’re going to do. The receipts that they gave back are modified specifications.

Felix are my go to guys for myself, family and friends. They are honest and do terrific work as promised and with no issues. They work on my Saab, BMW or my son’s caddie. I usually don’t let anyone but me work on my BMW but Felix has earned my trust and my no reservation referral. Great job guys!

Wouldn’t trust my car to anyone but Felix and Frank!

Great experience with this auto shop! The staff is professional, honest, and friendly, and the work is done right and on time. They explain everything clearly and do not try to sell me services I do not need. I highly recommend them for quality service and fair pricing.

Wonderful service, professional and polite!! Had safety inspection done ✅ and the team was flexible and accommodating!

We have been taking our cars to Felix and Frank for more than 13 years. Reliable, reasonable, expert, friendly - can’t recommend them enough

My 2007 Honda has 220000 and it runs like new, thanks to Felix Auto Service thas has taken care of the maintenance of the car for the last 17 years.

This was my first experience with Felix Auto Service, but judging by the online reviews, my expectations were set high and Felix Auto Service did NOT disappoint. Upon having a vehicle towed to this location, the tow truck driver lost the keys…the shop Manager, Franklin immediately alerted me of this issue and put my mind at ease, that he would give the driver time to locate the keys (which took hours) and he was so patient. After diagnosing the problem, the invoice was sent via email, where you can authorize the service (impressive) and the price was very reasonable. Even more, when I called to discuss the service line items, the Owner, Felix took time to explain what needed to be repaired and why. When he explained the issues and what needed to be fixed, it logically made sense and added up (NO inflated pricing and/or erroneous charges). Subsequently, I called and spoke to Cruz a couple days later and he informed me that the car was ready for pickup. When I went to pickup the vehicle, it ran smooth like a brand new car. I immensely appreciate, respect and thank Felix Auto Service for making an overwhelming, stressful issue, care-free. Through the whole process, I felt that the vehicle was in good hands and that I was aware of the process/progress every step of the way. I will MOST DEFINITELY use Felix Auto Service for my mechanical needs going forward. The team, Felix, Franklin and Cruz are fair, honest, knowledgeable and professional. May God continue to bless them and their business.

I took my car there to get it serviced and they took the time to explain everything to me and they were also very honest about it. Honestly one of the best if not the best shop around this area.

Wow, thank you Juan Centeno for the fantastic review! We’re absolutely thrilled to hear that you were impressed with our efficient and high-quality service. Our team works hard to ensure every customer has an exceptional experience, and it’s wonderful to know we’ve succeeded in doing so for you and your vehicle. Your feedback motivates us to continue delivering the best experience possible. [Felix Auto Service] Frank- Shop Manager

I recently went to Felix Auto Service in Falls Church for a brake job, and had a great experience. The team was very professional and made me feel comfortable right away, which I really appreciated. As a woman, it’s important to feel like you’re being treated honestly, and I definitely got good vibes here. Frank especially made the whole process smooth and easy. I’d definitely come back and recommend this shop to others.

I always bring my cars to here for service, nice people, good price.

Came in 8:30am on a Saturday for an oil change and alignment. They were courteous, welcoming, very serviceable. Francisco was very helpful as we discussed other small concerns about the vehicle. He made me feel confident in their ability to do all the things. The work was done in a very timely manner and the communication was effective and timely. I am VERY satisfied with their work. No notes. The owner Felix was there when I went to pick up. Also very pleasant and helpful .

I would for sure return to this shop, I arrived and instantly started the paperwork and got my car examined for my issue. They were quick enough to confirm my suspicions and get started. I was extremely happy with the results and will for sure be a returning customer!

I came to the shop a couple days ago because my car was not starting, they promised to fix my vehicle by changing out the timing belt and water pump. I agreed to over $1000+ worth of work and was told this will make vehicle run as it was before. After the work was completed I arrived to the shop and my vehicle was starting weird and check engine light was on now, these were not issues before the car came to the shop. To me it seems the job was done incorrect and negligently then tried to quote me over $1300 worth of work on the vehicle. They didn't release my vehicle until I paid the $1,000+ balance even though my car was not properly fixed. I am beyond disappointed, and may contact the BBB if my issue isn't resolved with the owner.

"Hi Mohammed Nabil, Thank you for bringing this to our attention. I'm truly sorry to hear that your [experience/product] didn't meet your expectations. That's not the standard we aim for, and we want to understand more about what happened as your vehicle came in a tow truck with your vehicle engine not cranking due to timing belt was torn and when replaced further work needed to be completed and we would like to make it right. Please reach out to me directly at so we can discuss this further. Best regards, [Frank Portillo / Shop Manager]"

Just went to Felix Auto Service. They got me in very quickly, fixed my speedometer, and extremely efficient. Could not have had better customer services. I will 100% be coming back here.

"Awesome service! The team was really helpful, explained everything clearly, and got my car back to me in perfect shape. Quick, reliable, and hassle-free—highly recommend!"

Been going here for years, and they’re always very kind, very fairly priced, and do very good work

So glad I took my car to Felix Auto Service, they are truly amazing! They managed to fix my car in 3 days after another car shop had it for a month and couldn't fix it. Felix Auto Service thankfully restored my confidence on how a car repair shop should proceed with HONESTY, TRANSPARENCY, FAIR PRICES and QUALITY. Wish I would have taken my car to them first and avoided the hassle of the other shop. Thank you, thank you, thank you! My car is running better than ever thanks to the team at Felix Auto Service. So glad to have found them and now I will only take my car to them. They're the best!

Had a nail in my tire and needed a quick fix. Felix took my car in right away and was able to patch my tire. Great customer service

Incompetent workers. Came in to patch a nail in my tire and they forgot to attach 3 lug nuts and the refill cap. My fault for not checking before I left but extremely unhappy with this

Went in for an annual inspection. 3 hours later they identified needed items to pass the annual inspection and many other preventative maintenance services. Prices is on the high side.

This place is just absolutely incredible. The people who work there are the kindest. And it's really the first time in my life I've been able to feel at ease with the mechanics and their work. They have looked after my van for years and since coming across them, I have never again used another mechanic. I reallyy trust their work and the prices they offer. Frank goes out of his way to make sure they are finding the most affordable parts for the car, and I really appreciate how transparent they are and how they go about their repairs. Before coming across Felix auto, I used to absolutely hate going to the mechanic. I was always uneasy and I always felt like I had to question everything I was being told. But this place just feels completely different. From the first time I visited, I knew I'd came across an honest place, and I just felt so much more at ease. My van is a really old car and she's not easy to repair, but they've kept her running for far longer than I thought she would last! If you're looking for a mechanic in Virginia, I reallyyy cannot recommend this place enough.

This is my go-to auto service shop. They are fair, fast, and thorough and I feel lucky to have them close by.

Amazing amazing place! Comes highly recommended from folks around NoVa (also Falls Church award program best auto repair shop 2022, 2023, 2025). It’s a family-run business + extra hands on deck. Felix was at a Honda dealership for several years before opening up shop. I came in with a rattling/wobbling car at highway speeds and tire issues, also checking for general issues since my car’s a 2009. All was double-checked, everything I wanted fixed was done well and my car drives so smooth now. I also feel they are honest and trustworthy because not only were fixes only done as I gave permission, but I also called another garage I know to verify their ballpark prices for fixes — they were almost exactly the same as Felix Auto Service’s quote. 10/10 will go back for future care issues

Literally everything you want: fair pricing, good customer service, good work.

Longtime customer. Good prices and reliable repairs.
