I brought a halter top and formal dress that both needed the straps altered. Flora had me try them on, fixed both perfectly, and I was out the door in less than 20 minutes! Fast, efficient, affordable, and professional. Cash only, no problem. One of the best local business experiences I've had since moving to San Diego. I already know I'll be back with a more complicated alteration for a wedding in October. Flora is officially my alterations spot!

For four pairs of pants, I was in and out of there in about 40 min, so be prepared to try on your clothes and wait a little bit depending on how much you need done.

The second was for some jeans, which also came out perfect. It's a family-owned business, and they make you feel welcomed the moment you walk in.

Highly recommend!

Overall great experience through this business. To be…read morehonest, it started off not so great. I requested a quote and was told to text Don to communicate. From there, I was given a time and address but once I arrived at the house, he didn't answer and no one was there to take my dress. After a few calls and texts, I was able to get ahold of Don but not until after I left. Fortunately, he reassured me this would get taken care of and sent me the next day to his seamstress/coworker Anna. I showed up to her place the next day and everything went smoothly after that. This review is mostly for Anna but she is AMAZING! I arrived at her place and she had a small studio in the back to let me try on my dress while she made the mock adjustments for my alterations. Communication with her was clear, reliable, and she was so sweet and accommodating because I needed my dress the next day. She was timely, professional, and really friendly. I'd send everyone to her if I could!

Weirdest experience. I wanted to try Don and realized I was sent somewhere else. So reviewing the…read moreexperience of calling and arranging a fitting. I will likely try a business shop vs home shop next time. I called multiple times and arranged for a fitting to alter two jackets. First Don said he was available the next day and to call back. I did and arranged to stop by, kept asking for the address, and finally he gave it to me, but called back later and ask I stop by later that day. When I tried again in the afternoon, he gave me an address and said his sister is helping him and will meet with me. Went to the home and the man introduced himself as Don so I was so confused. He said a business partner is sending him leadals, maybe that is Don? The woman (Loan) was very sweet who did my alterations. Anyway, whoever I ended up being sent to was ok but it wasnt Don and cant find her listing to leave a review there. Leaving this here so others are aware they may be sent elsewhere instead of Don. The alterations for 2 jackets were ok. One jacket was perfect but the other was looser and not quite as tailored. Price was cheaper than standard so I was not too upset, you get what you pay for.

I came to…read moreSan Diego for a family reunion and had the day before been bamboozled out of $300 by a fake mobile seamstress. We rushed to find this shop and they were able to do it overnight. I got a XXL for a brassiere type top with a matching skirt. I'm a size extra small. This man did magic. Seriously magic. Attached is the job he did. He definitely knew his way around a sewing machine and understood how fabric sits and is manufactured around a woman's body. I forgot your name sir, but you saved me!!! Wishing you so many blessings. I hope the owner knows what a gem you are!!

Great pricing. I went to 2 other tailor shops for an estimate to alter 2 bridesmaids dresses. This…read moreshop had very fair pricing, so I went with Hector. I have to knock off 1 star though because I had told him I didn't need the dresses back for a couple of weeks. He told me they would be ready the following week on a specific day. I received a text day of stating they needed 1 more day, which was fine since I wasn't planning to pick them up that day anyway. The day after, I came by mid morning and my dresses weren't ready yet, which was very frustrating because they told me to come by anytime. I went to run an errand nearby and came back. The hemming was perfect but unfortunately the shoulders on one of the dresses is still loose, but it's good enough. I'll still be back here for all my future alterations!

The owner, Thelma, is a sweetheart! For this visit, I needed them to hem and alter the sides of the dress in less than a week! My dress was a shimmery, sequined dress that I bought online and it needed to look right on the day of pick up since the party was that night. There was no room for error with such a tight timeline. Needless to say, the dress was the perfect length and the sides were taken in to prevent gaps on the sides. The dress fit perfectly!!! I will definitely return for my special occasion dress alterations.

They have a three-way mirror and a real dressing room Laura the seamstress is very kind. She takes a great deal of attention to details when you fitting you to your garment. She will collaborate in what direction to go with your alteration. Which is awesome some shops will just do what they think is fit or to their taste. I've gone to her now A total of five times to trim dresses with difficult fabrics. I will tell you I can sew myself. I have a great sewing machine and a serger with cutting capabilities. These are the fabrics I find very difficult to work with, and probably take months. Miss Laura charges a decent price for alterations and can get them back to you in a timely fashion.
