I don’t typically write reviews, but I was so impressed by Tal that I feel compelled to share. I called him after losing my car keys, expecting a quick replacement. What should have been a simple install turned into a much more complicated situation due to issues with my car.
Tal put in many hours over several days, returning multiple times without charging me anything beyond the original quote. When it became clear that the problem required a mechanic, he referred me to someone trustworthy with fair prices and followed up afterward to make sure everything was resolved. He even sent one of his team members to handle the final touches—again, without charging extra.
Tal went above and beyond at every step. He was clear, communicative, and highly reasonable with his prices. I am incredibly grateful for his professionalism and trustworthiness (especially after some less positive experiences with other autosmiths). I felt in good hands throughout the entire process, and I’d recommend him to anyone.

Old-fashioned in the best sense of the word is how I would describe this locksmith’s shop. I just needed some keys duplicated, but they had a choice of key blanks for me, and did the job quickly and professionally while I enjoyed the nostalgic ambience. Great service!

These guys are amazing! Melvin is a magician. He not only removed a broken key from a lock barrel, but managed to make a new key from the broken piece. Highly recommend!!!!!

It was pricey, but super convenient. I couldn’t make it to a real store within store hours, so this was a great solution for me. It was pretty quick, no longer than a key store. They have a great selection of designs if you can wait 3-4 days for shipping, They DO have standard blanks (and a few designs) in the machine if you need one right away.

Edit: Excellent customer service.
Original: I used the automated kiosk inside Safeway. It was $11 per key. Made a terrible copy, notable differences between the original and duplicate, and barely worked. Will not be returning.

This is a scammer locksmith, do not use them.

They did the job but charged 5x what they had quoted, and refused to leave until they received payment. When I complained they refunded some; then later when I started asking too many questions (via text) they refunded an additional amount.

It was my fault for not noticing there were no reviews and that the address provided is actually a toy shop and a dentist.

The weird thing is they actually replaced the lock and the guy was quite nice. Now I have to replace the lock they replaced, lock my credit card, and do identity theft monitoring.

Alex from Nova Locksmith was fantastic. He arrived promptly, repaired our broken front door lock quickly, and explained everything clearly. He also showed us different digital lock options and was very knowledgeable. Excellent service, highly recommended, and we will definitely call him again when we need locksmith service!.

Absolute waste of time – not recommended for lockouts. I called a person to pick a normal lock and decided on a price. A guy named John initially said 15 minutes and showed up 75 minutes later and asked for an insane amount of money.

Very bad experience.
