Great service, put in extra effort to make sure repairs were covered by my insurance. Very pleasant, very helpful, very knowledgeable.
Barbara Knighton
So pleased to find an easy place to have my oil changed and keep up with on going maintenance on my Mini Cooper now that it is out of warranty. Much easier and more convenient than going all the way to the dealership. Plus I don’t mind walking there and home when needed.
Eleanor Williams
Was able to drop my car off after working a nightshift knowing it would be fixed by the time I woke up!
Kaylee Perkinson
Walked in and got an auto inspection while I waited. No problems and fast service.

ROA has been a wonderful place for us. Our family has about 7-10 cars and we service all of them with Vince and John at RO Auto.
Jim Pearson
Having recently moved to Houston, I was looking for a trustworthy automotive shop, and I couldn’t have been more impressed with my experience here. The facility was spotless, the staff was friendly and accommodating, and the detailed inspection report they emailed afterward was the most thorough and professional automotive report I’ve ever received. Even though I only came in for an oil change, they took the time to check the entire vehicle and gave me complete confidence that everything was in great shape.
Ed Burns

Nicole Nila
I was having an AC issue with my vehicle and it was blowing warm Air. I called and Vince told me to bring my car in and that it might take a few hours, he gave me a quote and thanked me for calling. I came by this morning and Vince greeted me, asked me to fill out a form. He told me it would take a few hours, that he would call me if they find anything else and when it's ready. Vince called me and went over everything, said my car was ready it took an hour! Got to the shop Vince greeted me and went over everything and I paid and left! Wonderful service. I did not feel pressured or intimidated at all. I have cold AC again!! I will definitely recommend River oaks Automotive Center to everyone!

We’ve been coming here for years, and River Oaks Automotive Center has always been reliable. Stopped in today for an inspection for tag renewal, and as usual, the service was fast, professional, and hassle-free. Highly recommend!
Mimi & Hank
This place is great. I’ve been taking all of my cars here for years, and they consistently do precise, high-quality work. They fix what’s needed and when they make recommendations, they let you decide without being pushy. I always feel confident bringing my cars here.

Had to get the AC on my truck fixed recently. They were able to get me in and out in a reasonable time. Price was competitive and Vince was very accommodating and helpful. Been using them for some years now and have not felt the need to try and look elsewhere.
Harres Exezidis
This shop checks off all the boxes. They are kind and very informative when relaying information about your vehicle. They will take good care of your vehicle while making sure you are aware of the cost and process. Highly recommend!
Rebecca Salazar
Highly recommend! Professional, fast, and fair. They handled everything efficiently. The car drives noticeably smoother after the alignment and the inspection was thorough, giving me peace of mind. Their rates are very competitive and honestly some of the best prices I've seen in the area for this level of work and the team was transparent about the timeline and didn't try to upsell me on things I didn't need. It's hard to find a shop you can trust, but these guys are the real deal. If you need a routine maintenance or a specific fix, I definitely recommend checking them out.
Skylar Trainor
I've been taking my cars to River Oaks Automotive Center for several years now, and they never disappoint. From routine oil changes and inspections to more complex repairs, the team is always professional, efficient, and, most importantly, completely honest. Last month, I brought in my car there for a strange noise and what I thought might be a major issue. Vincent and the technicians diagnosed it quickly, explained everything clearly without any upselling pressure, and fixed it at a very fair price. I was in and out faster than expected, and the car has been running perfectly since. What stands out most is their integrity in an industry where trust can be hard to come by. They do exactly what's needed, use quality parts, and stand behind their work. The shop is clean, the staff is friendly, and communication is excellent from start to finish. If you're in the Houston area (River Oaks, Uptown, or nearby), do yourself a favor and make this your go-to shop. You won't find better service or value anywhere else! Highly recommend, I'll keep coming back and sending friends their way.
Twitmo Inmate
Always super fast and friendly! The only place I take my car, even for emissions tests and oil changes.
Stellar DNA
I have been in the automotive industry for over 20+ years, so I am very critical of facilities such as these. However, I have to say that this is the most impressed I have ever been of any service facility that I have ever worked at or visited. There is simply not a single bad thing I could say about the staff, service, follow up or competency. Keep in mind this is after multiple visits ranging from routine maintenance to a recent breakdown, so our relationship is past the honeymoon phase. Hats off to these guys. Oh, and as far as integrity and pricing; as nieve as she was, I would send my late mother (God rest her soul) by herself to this place and trust that she would not be taken advantage of.
James Kennedy
This is the only place I take my car anymore - they are great!
Kristin Pearson

Call two times to ask a question, they put me on hold for 10min...
Gabriel Hernandez
Vince and the crew at River Oaks Automotive Center have been taking care of my vehicles for the past few years. I recently purchased a modern classic that needed a few mechanical repairs and some deferred maintenance taken care of. Vince was able to get the vehicle back to me quicker than promised and helped source some parts at a lower cost. A few months later I took the vehicle back for some rust repair and paint work. The repairs for the rust and sheet metal are undetectable and the vehicle looks like it did the day it rolled out the factory. They were able to match the original paint which is now 25 years old perfectly. I've been impressed with everything including how well I've been treated. I have no problem recommending River Oaks Automotive and already have to several fellow classic car owners.

I've been a loyal customer of River Oaks Automotive Center for 6 years, and their service has always been top-notch. From high-quality body work to reliable mechanical repairs, they've consistently delivered excellent results. Vince is amazing; he truly goes above and beyond to help and make sure everything is done right. One of the things I appreciate most is that they are honest and fairly priced. You never have to worry about being overcharged or taken advantage of here. It's hard to find an auto shop you can fully trust, but River Oaks Automotive is that place. Highly recommend!
Christine Malaguti
Vince and team are extremely honest and do great work. Drop off and pickup process is seamless and they have my car back as quick as possible. Great neighborhood automotive shop option for those of us who live nearby.
