I have a guy who a great mechanic but he only loves BMW's.  If you need to
have a reference for future work that you can schedule he's much the best.
For stuff done on your schedule, emergencies Larry Z's has been reliable and
honest.  He never charged if he couldn't fix something or misdiagnosed it,
at least not me and I don't know him personally so I assume that's his
normal behavior.
