Cannot recommend enough!!! Stopped in to see if they could repair a small rip in a pair of pants I had. Eddie and the other tailors were super welcoming and friendly from the moment I walked in. They repaired the pants for me on the spot within a few minutes! Plus, Eddie has the cutest dog!! ☺️
Took these pants in for a shoot I had and they took great care of me! Adjusted the length and around my waist. Would definitely come back, thank ya'll so much :)
Asked to get a pair of jeans tailored! I had the waistline lowered so it would be more low waisted, as well as the waist part tightened overall. They did a phenomenal job!!! Such kind customer service and super fair prices as well. I’ll definitely be back
Recently purchased a pair of new pants but needed an adjustment as one of the cuffs was a quarter of an inch longer than the other. After being assured they could make the adjustments, I waited a week and picked them up trusting their reputation. Upon taking them home it was immediately obvious they raised the hem of one leg by a whole inch and a quarter! Further, it seems they messed up once already during the process as there are clear tailoring marks further up the pant leg that were not there before. If they can make such amateur mistakes with something as simple as adjusting a hemline (ruining a pair of pants in the process), I would never trust them with more delicate alterations.
Amazing amazing customer service !! And all my work was done well, they really care about making sure it’s done to your liking and done to your requests. There were others there checking their work or picking up their clothes and they were all so happy ! So all good signs. Sent a few friends over already, and my one friend guessed to the penny what they thought I was charged and so the work really matches the cost 💗 my new go to tailors!
