Vahe was great. He fixed my care and did not try to sell me anything else. Very easy to speak to. Would take my car to him again!

I'd like to keep Vahe's Garage a best-kept secret from the internet, but they definitely deserve a 5-star review. Most mechanics look a little skeptical when I drive up in my 1992 300D Mercedes. Not only was Vahe's more than willing to do a pressure check on my coolant system as a walk-in; they even replaced the part for me in the same day. Quite a relief to find a trustworthy mechanic that can service a European car without a hassle.

My son is a college student in Waltham, MA. This morning, he was on his way to a job interview in Boston when his car began to overheat and died. He got as far as Cambridge. Needless to say, he was panicked on a number of levels. Being from NY and not knowing anyone locally, he called me in NY and I immediately did a Google search for local repair shops. I cross checked against Yelp and Google reviews and found a number of positive reviews about Vahe's Garage. Being generally skeptical, I called and spoke to Vahe the owner (pronounced Vah-hee) directly and told him about the symptoms. I told him that it sounded like a thermostat problem to me and asked what a repair like that would cost. He said let's look at the car first because maybe he just needs coolant. My son got the car to Vahe's Garage. Vahe could have told me it needed a thermostat, or that it needed a water pump, or that there was a hole in the radiator and needed a radiator, or something even worse and taken real advantage of my son and the situation. Instead, he told him the car merely was very low on coolant and the fan wasn't spinning. He filled the radiator with coolant and got the fan spinning again and had my son on his way. But wait - he didn't charge him anything!! What kind of mechanic is that gracious and that honest. I'll tell you what kind - only the best kind. I would strongly recommend this gentleman and this place for all your car needs. Thank you Vahe for helping out a helpless college kid. I am in your debt.
