Nader & Sons

All these excellent reviews are accurate (thanks Christy A). I came by this shop after reading these Unilocal reviews as Ryan T needed his car looked at. He was having issues with what he thought was his radiator. Other shops told him he needed a new fan or a new radiator.
We came down to Nader’s and they came out to the car and patiently examined it. It didn’t take them long to rule out the radiator and the fan as a problem. In reality, it was a much simpler problem of a lack of antifreeze.
The man who helped us (I forget his name but I think he runs the shop with his brother) was amazing. After he fixed that issue for no charge, we had him do an oil change while we ran to Blues City Deli for lunch (of course we bought him lunch for being so helpful).
When we returned from lunch he was all done with the oil change. While the car was still on the lift, he pointed out a couple issues that needed to be fixed but didn’t pressure us to fix them immediately. He said it would cost about $ 80 total.
These people are very reasonable and honest. It’s hard to find a good mechanic if one doesn’t know much about cars. I’m glad I found these guys.

Great quick and cheap service. For my tire to get put on, they were vheaper and quicker than any auto parts place around. Always busy. Nice staff. Know many languages before showing up

Just stopped by with a flat tire and they helped me immediately and very quickly! The man was very friendly and checked my other tires too. Very grateful to have seen the reviews that guided me here.

Need a fix Nader can get you taken care of in a flash.
I’ve gone to Nader over the years for many issues such as flat tires, brake repairs, windshield wiper replacements and bodywork. My mother has and currently uses their services for many of her car issues such as engines, starters, bodywork, brakes, transmissions, tires, etc. She actually refuses to take her vehicle to any other mechanic.
Me however; I at least migrate lol
Nader is a great family owned business run by professionals who I trust. They are all always extremely nice, very welcoming and honest with me; if they can’t do something they don’t mind telling me. I appreciate this in a business.

I’ve been here repeatedly due to their honest, good service. I originally found them on Unilocal and they definitely live up to their five-​star rating. I normally don’t leave reviews but I actually felt impelled to do so in their case!

These guys are honest and friendly people who treat you like a human being. Prior to being sent here by a friend, I called a nearby shop that left a really bad taste in my mouth.
They fixed my bumper same-​day for an incredibly reasonable price. I’ll definitely be going back (but hopefully not soon, because I don’t want more car issues!).

These guys are amazing. I’ve been to so many different auto shops, both corporate and family-​owned, and this place is a breath of fresh air. They are the nicest people around and will be honest with you on your car’s needs. I couldn’t recommend them more.

nader and sons are trustworthy, reliable, and affordable. they get the job done, and there is no nonsense. i recommend this shop to everyone i know, even my family!

What a great place! Mr. Nader is honest, friendly, and so nice! They treat you like family!

Moved to STL 6 years ago and was extremely lucky to find these guys to work on my antique ailing 81 Camaro.
Over the years they handled all my needs both great and small including a new rear end upgrade, body work, head gaskets and head planning, water pump, starter etc. They are quick, capable, congenial, affordable and HONEST!
They will even run you to work and pick you up if it is a reasonable distance.
Family owned and operated they have been in business for over 35 years. Great group of guys — ladies come here so you will not get ripped off by other unscrupulous mechanics.
Had to move recently and am sorry I couldn’t pack them up and take them with me.
Go here and relax — you’re in good hands!

I was referred to this place by a coworker on a late snowy winter day. My battery was dead and they stayed late to put a new one in for me. They are extremely friendly, professional, and fair. I love that they’re all family. Everyone is so energetic and give off the vibe that they absolutely love what they do. I have brought my car back several times and they always seem to do a great job. I would recommend them to anyone!

You are not going to find a better neighborhood auto repair shop. These guys specialize in great and affordable service. This family-​owned business in Benton Park West knows their stuff and is willing to always go above and beyond to figure out hard to diagnosis repairs. They have literally saved me thousands of dollars over the years working on my Subaru, Acura, Audi and Nissan.
Give them a call or stop by and just hang out in the shop for great conversation and hot coffee.

Moving to a new city can be a huge task and more often than not it’s the smaller details you overlook. Getting your car serviced/​repaired is usually one of the items that you neglect until the last minute or you find your wheels on the back of a tow truck, which in this case happened. I called several friends that have been pretty spot on when recommending anything from food to an insurance agent, so why not a repair shop. They sent me to Nader &Sons, right in my neighborhood. I could easily walk there and check on my vehicle and pick it up.
While it’s appearance and ‘used car lot’ look may be unappealing and make one leery to give them a chance, it should not be a deterrent. The guys inside are thorough, knowledgeable, friendly, and real life people that will treat you and your vehicle with respect. They explain everything in lay man terms and give you a price that is more than fair (I got estimates from 2 other shops around and they came in lowest). The car was repaired in an extremely timely manner even for a large job (they replaced my transmission).
I now take my car to them for all oil changes, repairs big and small, as well as state inspections. I cannot recommend them enough to anyone. This is a neighborhood business that is doing it right.
