HORRIBLE service! If I could give 0 stars I would. Too long of a story to tell but driver was very rude and argumenative. I ended up getting out before we even left my apt parking lot. Horrible customer service when I called to make a complaint. I will def stick with Uber or Lyft next time!

Poor service. Called them for a pickup and the taxi never showed up. Flagged down another taxi and he refused to drive us because we were only going 2 miles and the fee wasn't worth his time. After multiple bad experiences i will not use again, I'd rather walk backwards on my hands.

Very beat up cars. They told me they'll be here to get me in 15 minutes... the guy came in 5 minutes and left because he waited 2 minutes. Didn't honk or anything. I guess I shouldn't have ran to the bathroom before waiting outside. Just call Ace Taxi instead.
