I highly recommend LBJ Independent Honda/Acura Specialists without any reservations!
I have been their happy customer since about 2005, and have serviced and/or fixed multiple Honda cars during that time. Their work quality is top notch. I don't remember having an issue with them at all. I have been recommending them to other many times, and every one who went to them told me that they were satisfied.
LBJ folks really know their field, which is everything Honda-related (and, I assume, Acura-related - but I don't own an Acura, so I cannot tell your first hand). The owner, Rick, knows his stuff inside and out. He also always explains all the technical issues in plain terms, so that any layman can understand. All the mechanics who work for Rick are uniformly great, and also explain technical things well. Everyone treats me and other customers who are in the shop really well.
Nice thing to know: when I want to educate myself, I asked Rick or his colleagues at LBJ for car-related advice, not necessarily related to the repair job that they worked on. For example, I asked about recommendations for car jump starters, recommendations for driving in very cold weather, etc. I always got great, actionable advice.
The prices are substantially lower than in any Honda dealership that I checked around my place. The prices are higher than in some deep discount shops who only changes the oil and the filters, and nothing else (you know them). But in the end I saved more by going to LBJ, because they try to carefully check out the car, and tell me right away about any pending issues they see. For example, they may say that the brakes need replacement in X thousand miles, but they do not need to be changed right away. Or that the some other thing needs to be fixed within the next Y months. It is always good to know of any potential and real issues in advance, rather than find out about worn-out brakes the day before a long car trip. In summary, if you have a Honda, LBJ is the place to go!
