Default Recommendations for NorCal Honda Service Departments?

I'm new to the Honda badge and am looking for a service department/service advisor that others have had good experience with. Please share for the community!

At this moment, I'm just going to take it in for the recalls like the clutch and sun visor.

I ended up going to Autowest Honda in Fremont; close to my work.

They did the job in 2 days (a day for shipping).

Took it down south and back over the long weekend and it feels strong. No clicks or squeaks, so good job on the install so far.

After thoughts: The tech said I am in need of a new clutch soon. He said it'll run around $1500. I don't feel it slipping one bit though, and declined. He didn't sound too happy about that. I wasn't sure if it was a,"this guy's an idiot for not doing this" kinda un-happy or a,"freak'n... I'm doing this work for free now..." kinda un-happy.

Run it around a few more months and see what happens then. Hopefully the tech was wrong and was taking you for a sucker lol.
