Leo "John Cho" K.'s Profile

Services

Since San Francisco, for all its charm, is an incredibly inconvenient place to live. These are the people/businesses that take my money to take care of tasks that I should be doing on my own (for the most part).

1. Japan Center Garage

1610 Geary Blvd
San Francisco, CA 94115
(415) 567-4573

Category: Parking

Neighbourhoods: Japantown, Lower Pac Heights, Pacific Heights, Western Addition/NOPA

7/9/2011

Cheapest covered parking rates I've ever seen in San Francisco, an easy-to-navigate lot (no crazy tight spaces or ridiculously steep driveways), and security cameras placed all over. I'm pretty sure there is no better place to park in SF. Love it so…More »

2. San Francisco Test Only Smog - CLOSED

1998 Market St
San Francisco, CA 94102
(415) 626-0500

Category: Smog Check Stations

Neighbourhood: Hayes Valley

7/9/2011

I'm sorry, but Yelpers (and San Franciscans in general) are just unable to give hard feedback in any situation short of a business owner place-kicking a 12 week-old AKC champion Frenchie through the uprights at Candlestick. This place is nothing…More »

3. All Star Glass

1145 San Mateo Ave
San Bruno, CA 94066
(650) 244-4190

Categories: Auto Repair, Auto Glass Services

5/24/2011

Please do not go with All Star Glass. Window repair services are a dime-a-dozen (even mobile ones), and ASG managed to botch scheduling for a simple job, thus wasting the half-day I took off to have my passenger-side window replaced after a break-in.…More »

4. Mystic Haircutting

14 Haight St
San Francisco, CA 94102
(415) 255-8473

Category: Barbers

Neighbourhood: Hayes Valley

4/14/2011

This is the kind of place where you can be a dude, bullshit with other dudes, and get a fresh cut.

Every time I walk out of here after an appointment with Shorty, I feel like throwing some anvils on a tree branch and pressing the shit out of…More »

5. Crystal Cleaners

San Francisco, CA 94117
(415) 292-6889

Category: Dry Cleaning & Laundry

Neighbourhood: Western Addition/NOPA

4/18/2011

Life-changing. Crystal Cleaners will come to your house (as late as 9P) to pick up your laundry and dry cleaning, turn around 99% of jobs in 1 day, and drop your clean clothes right back off at your doorstep.

Despite what people say, it's not anywhere…More »

6. Franz Custom Tailors

166 Geary Street
San Francisco, CA 94108
(415) 986-2044

Category: Sewing & Alterations

Neighbourhood: Union Square

4/14/2011

Franz is like the Latin grandfather I never had.

He's happy to take his time working with you to figure out how to get your particular job done best, which might explain why he's a little slow with his work (I almost had an issue with turnaround time…More »

7. Oxford Tailor

166 Geary Street

(415) 956-2606

Category: Sewing & Alterations

Neighbourhood: Union Square

4/14/2011

Just like everyone else said, quite expensive, but well worth it.

They were a little less precise in their work than Franz Tailor (the spin-off shop 2 floors above owned by a third family member), but they were also priced slightly lower and the…More »

8. The UPS Store

182 Howard St
San Francisco, CA 94105
(415) 495-6963

Categories: Shipping Centers, Notaries

Neighbourhood: SOMA

3/14/2011

Never thought I'd see a 4 star average score for a UPS Store let alone write a 5 star review of my own, but this place deserves it.

I had a load of packages to pack and ship after doing some spring cleaning/EBay'ing, and came to this location.

9. The Car Doctor

2235 Old Middlefield Way
Mountain View, CA 94043
(650) 988-8600

Category: Auto Repair

3/17/2010

The best endorsement I can give for an automotive shop:

After a single experience, the folks at The Car Doctor join the very short list of people I'll let touch my car.

I usually do most of my own work, but after moving to San Francisco, I've found it…More »

Categories: Auto Repair, Oil Change Stations

Much like everyone else here, I took my G35 to Eugene for maintenance work and came away extremely pleased with his level of skill and professionalism.

My thoughts echo the sentiments found in every other review, and demonstrate service that's…More »

11. Valencia Street Muscle

333 Valencia St
San Francisco, CA 94103
(415) 431-9700

Categories: Gyms, Trainers

Neighbourhood: Mission

4/14/2011

The best gym in SF (and I've tried a few different places).

People come here to get in shape with a minimum of bullshit. Plus Hasad, the gym manager, plays a lot of Rihanna, which makes me feel like an empowered woman as I do my maxed deadlifts.
