Top notch, been coming to Chavo for over 10 years. Don't skip Chavo, he's the best classic cut, incredible taste, delightful atmosphere.

Dropped that ex, but had to keep this amazing barber 💈 — for the past 6 years this is the only man that has cut my hair and unless I leave SD I'm never going anywhere else.

Please get your hair cut by this amazing human! I have been cutting my hair with Chavo for over 5 years now and every single time I was amused by the consistency in his styling. Great person who will make you feel at home and he is a friend for life.

[Chavo] is by far the best barber I have ever been to! … He's accepting of all people and actually remembers the conversations we have the next time I see him. … do yourself a favor and visit Chavo.

As a dude who has a big beard and mustache, I've had no shortage of disappointing beard trims over the years. Chavo is awesome, and the only person who I trust to trim mine anymore. … look no further.

I just spent an hour on the seat of the best barber in San Diego County! … I think he's the best barber in California. … He is the best barber in the United States of America.
