Alosta Shell

Friendly employees and a clean gas station. Had my car serviced here and it was quick and easy. Just ask for Ed or Mike and they will take good care of you. I’ll be coming back again!

the indian guy that works night shifts is very rude. he talks to you with disrespect and rushes you out, even when you’re the only one there.

Everytime I drive by this place it has the highest prices. 20 to 25 cent higher then any other Shell gas station. I only go here if I absolutely have to. But they surely rip you off here! I would not recommend this unless you like to get ripped off.

I ALWAYS avoid this station! The prices are outrageous compared to other Shell stations with similar mechanic garages and similar retail sales (store). There is a Shell approximately 1 ½ miles away on Arrow Hwy in Covina. Their prices (Covina) sometimes average 15 – 25 cents a gallon cheaper, but always much cheaper.
For years, this station has been over charging customers for fuel compared to other comparable service stations. Please read other reviews. Thumbs DOWN!

Great customer service. Super convenient. Ed always provides excellent customer service. The job quality that they provide is the best. I will continue to come here.

I love Ed and Mike!!! Ed is the owner and Mike is the head mechanic. They treat me like a million bucks! My mechanic used to be my neighbor and he is traveling all over the US now to open shops for another company. I always came to Alosta shell to get my smog certs for all of my families vehicles and I just saw something in Ed’s eyes that told me he was a no-​nonsense guy, plus I found out that a mechanic that I had many years ago used to send the most difficult repairs TO ED!!! I have a Silverado, a Suburban, and my son used to have a Matrix too. So when I first came to Ed for a repair other than smog, after my neighbor left town, I needed maintenance and also had a pretty bad oil leak on the Suburban. I should throw in that I called my neighbor and gave him Ed’s price and he said «that is very fair Annette». Since then, this has been a beautiful and harmonious relationship and they treat my vehicles like they cost a million bucks, and they make me feel safe, secure, and like my business is very appreciated!!! Sometimes they even through extras in at no charge. I am sleeping better at night just knowing that my cars have great doctors!!! My truck and my suburban are older and paid for now, so most mechanics try to get you for every penny they can, but they say the same thing to me that my neighbor used to say «Annette, everything looks good! Its a great car». Wow.

The people inside are almost always rude and the gas prices are outrageous compared to other gas stations near by. They are almost always 20 – 30 cents more than others close by. Even chevron just down lonehill is ALWAYS less and ARCO on the corner or lone hill and arrow is even less expensive. Unless you’re running on fumes I wouldn’t waste my money.

I love shell and will go out of my way just for Shell Gas, but this one; I’ll avoid. The lady working inside during the mornings is not friendly, at all. Most times I’m able to go in, get what I need, and leave having the only thing said to me being how much I owe them. No «Good morning». «hello». «thank you»… nothing. At first I chalked it up to having a bad morning, as I have them often, but after a few times I stopped even trying to be polite and just started going elsewhere. Plus station is tiny and doesn’t have a big selection of Gas Station goodies.

I like this station because it is convenient. The station is clean. I usually go to Vons to get my gas for better prices., but I was given a gift card. You sit in the car waiting for your car to be filled up with gas you have many choices to eat at. McDonald’s Starbucks Delltop go everything starts to sound yummy!

RUDE! Very RUDE!
Tried to get some propane and the attendant was slow. He was watching something on TV and i was putting him out of his way to get some propane. I had about a gallon left in my 10 gallon propane tank and I wanted it fillled before my trip. He charged me for 10 gallons. When I told him that it wasnt empty he said that he had to charge me for 10 gallons for the tank even though it wasnt empty. Its their policy. i asked if that was the same for gas (the obvious response). He said «Propane is different, dont you understand that.» I paid and never went back.
I went to another gas station and told him abou their ‘policy’ and siad that he never heard of such a policy and that the guy ‘ripped me off”

tried to get a smog check very rude workers gas prices are way to HIGH!!!

I haven’t had any problems with the employees here. Prices seem fair and the station is always clean.

this place is verry clean and the owner he is too freindly and honest ,
I would definitely recommend this place.

This is the only place I will take my car for repairs. The owner oversees all work himself and is trustworthy. They always make me feel welcome and have even invited me to sit and enjoy a cup of coffee with them while I waited for my car. An otherwise tedious errand like getting oil changed is actually enjoyable at shell.
