    The alleged alterations to fix my tie.

    Avoid this poor excuse for a dry cleaner. Poor quality work, unresponsive to repeated requests, huge staff turn over, and as of now intentionally add false and non-approved charges. I dropped off on 6/7/23 4 ties, and approximately 7-8 shirts. When I picked up on Friday 6/8/23, I was not quoted an amount. I was charged on my card, came home and hung my bagged clothing. Today 6/12, I am organizing my closet and I see I was charged $115.35 on my credit card. So I start looking. I was charged $15.77 per tie, why you may ask, because they fraudulently added alteration charges to each tie. Are you kidding me? No alterations were requested or needed. So I drive to their downtown Orlando location. Employees could have cared less. I asked for the manager or owner, I was told they are not available. Please do yourself a favor, don't use these cleaners. Using the cleaners closest to your home is not a good decision, as this experience shows me. As I am writing this I just got a call from a person identifying herself as the manager. Talk about knowing where the problem originates. She called me up to lie, insult me, tell me my "standards" are to high to be met. Well considering you currently have 3 stars as your average rating, it is not I have HIGH standards, but that I have them at all. The owner would be well served changing out this "manager"! Update after owner's response: First, learn to read, I said "when I picked up on Friday 6/9/23, I was not quoted an amount" nothing about quote when I dropped off. If you spent as much time responding to reviews with lies, as you did providing a great product and services, your reviews on multiple platforms would not be so bad. You have a problem, and until you admit it, it won't be fixed. You remind me of an addict who can't stop the addiction, until they admit to the problem. I will find another dry cleaner, finding a better one will be easy. You have my phone number, if you REALLY wanted to resolve this, you could have called. Btw here is a photo of your alterations/repairs, lol, right.

    First, I want to start off with the good things about this dry cleaners. The staff is very friendly, they offer you water and a newspaper to take with you. The pricing is absolutely unacceptable. I had a jumpsuit dry cleaned, the girl stated it would be 10 to $12 instead it was $20 the jump suit only cost 60. In total I had 8 pieces dry cleaned and my bill was a $100. I will not be going back to this dry cleaners for the fact that they are overpriced. If you don't mind paying more they're a great option but I feel there are other companies out there that will charge a fair price and give you the same quality type work.

    This place stands behind their work. Crystal at the downtown location has helped me out a great deal and such integrity and care.

    Heather is the best. She is very responsive and it's nice to know you can text her when you're ready for a pick up.

    I was charged 16.50 for one pair of pants and a coat/blazer. I thought it was outrageous. Not going back.

    5 Stars -- Jenny at Hung's Custom Tailor Shop is an Orlando Treasure!…read moreI don't write reviews often, but Jenny absolutely deserves one. I rushed into Hung's Custom Tailor Shop on Colonial Drive in a total panic -- I had a flight to San Diego coming up fast and needed my Blue Jeans tailored ASAP. Jenny was calm, kind, and incredibly accommodating. She told me to wait around and she'd take care of both pairs -- and she nailed it! The quality of her work matched the warmth of her heart. Hung's is a hidden gem on Colonial Drive, and Jenny is the reason why. Highly recommend to anyone in the Orlando area! both the Blue Jeans10:24 PMWhat a wonderful experience to share! Here's a heartfelt praise for Jenny: A Huge Shoutout to Jenny at Hung's Custom Tailor Shop! If you're ever in the Colonial Drive area of Orlando and need tailoring done -- especially in a pinch -- look no further than Hung's Custom Tailor Shop and the incredible Jenny, quite possibly the best owner in the tailoring business! I came to Jenny in a complete last-minute scramble, racing against the clock before flying out to San Diego on March 16th, and she didn't hesitate for even a second. With her warm smile and can-do attitude, she looked at my situation and said the magic words: "If you can wait around, we can knock off both the Blue Jeans." And just like that -- she came through! Jenny is the kind of person who truly goes above and beyond for her customers. She didn't turn me away, didn't make me feel like an inconvenience -- she made me feel like family. Her craftsmanship is top-notch, her kindness is unmatched, and her willingness to help someone in need on short notice speaks volumes about the kind of business she runs. Hung's Custom Tailor Shop on Colonial Drive is an Orlando gem, and Jenny is the heart of it all. Whether you need a quick fix or a full custom job, she will take care of you like no one else can. Thank you, Jenny! You saved the day and made sure I boarded that plane looking sharp.

I needed alterations done on a dress with only two days' notice, and she absolutely pulled through. Not only was the turnaround incredibly fast, but the quality of work was impressive. Clean lines, proper fit, and everything looked tailored to my body -- not just "quickly hemmed." What I loved most was the experience. It feels very local, very homey -- older-generation Vietnamese staff who are warm, efficient, and straight to the point. It reminded me of family energy. No fluff, just skilled hands and years of experience. I brought in three to four dresses, and everything was completed for around $100, which is honestly very reasonable for the amount of work and the rush timing. Pricing was fair, communication was clear, and the service was fast without feeling careless. If you're in the Mills 50 area and need dependable, quick, and affordable alterations -- especially for a last-minute event -- this place delivers. Support local. Especially when they show up for you like that.

    I never really give bad reviews, but I just want to share my experience with everybody here so that…read moreway they can be prepared for the possibilities. I really wanted to like this place. Sheila was fantastically friendly! She really knew what she was talking about when I was at my initial fitting and we were discussing what needed to get done. My dress was a little too long, and the zipper in the back wouldn't zip up the top 2 inches. A hem, lowering the zipper, and adding a little hook and eye cost about $103. You have to pay when you drop off your dress also (just an FYI). I did come a little close to the event asking for alterations. I dropped the dress off on April 10th (the wedding was April 19th and I was ok picking up the dress the day before if I had to because Sheila's reviews made me confident in her abilities). She said she could have it done in a week for me since these were "the easiest alterations" that she has been requested to do all week so I really wasn't worried. Here is where my hardships began... Fast forward to April 17th, the agreed upon date that I would pick up the dress. I walked into her beautiful store, and she looks extremely surprised to see me. She asked me which dress was mine, and then she explained that she actually didn't even start the alterations because she didn't properly put it in the system. Then she also explains to me that that she should probably hire an assistant. She reassured me that my alterations will be done by the following day (which I'm confused why she said it would take a week if she could do them so quickly.. but she seemed extremely busy so I get that there are other people who need their alterations before me). My anxiety is THROUGH THE ROOF at this point because I'm worried that I won't have a dress for the wedding that I am the maid of honor for. Again, probably my fault for coming 9 days before the wedding needing some alterations on a dress that didn't fit me too great. I don't think the alterations were too difficult though.. I come the following day, and my dress is ready. Sheila is doing a great job at juggling the 3 customers she has in the store at the time. She gives me my dress, and I try it on. The hem is great, but the zipper issue... I'm sorry to say this.. was NOT at all what I thought it would be. I think my roommate could have done a better job than this. Like even if the zipper was lowered just slightly below the waistband instead of on it like in the picture, it could've looked much better. I can definitely tell she was rushing. But the lack of cleaning up the threads just made me so uneasy about the quality of work I was receiving. She did not offer me a discount and was happy to send me on my way like this. I didn't think it was too bad in the moment until I took a closer look when I got home. Unfortunately, I didn't have the time to figure out a different dress situation. I was asked several times during the wedding if my zipper broke on me :( I had to explain that it's not broken and that these were the alterations made on my dress. Overall, I think Sheila's customer service was superb, and I think she's very knowledgeable which is why this isn't a 1 star review! Do I think she has the capacity for new customers? Absolutely not. Did I feel taken care of as a customer? Absolutely not. Will I come back? Absolutely not. Too stressful for me. But I'm sure she's really good at keeping up with her current clientele!

I brought both dresses to Shelia and she worked literal magic. The dress looks completely the different and it's amazing! She created a custom dress for me. Her work is great, and she is a sweetheart. You won't regret it. She really works with you to help capture the vision. She removed and added lace, changed straps, lifted the waist, hemmed and bustled the dress AND added a little mesh. I'm probably forgetting more.

    I took my bridesmaid dress here looking to get it hemmed & taken in since it was a bit loose and…read morethe back zipper poked out so I asked for that to be fixed. I paid around $85 for this service. I came back a couple days later and tried on the dress after it has been altered and was extremely unsatisfied and disappointed. I asked for the dress to be floor length with the heels that I will be wearing in which I also brought with me when I dropped off the dress to get the exact measurements. The front of the dress length was floor length, however, the back was short after the tailor had tried to take in the zipper part. The lady had questioned me if it was the same heels that I was wearing when I tried on the dress initially and I said yes, because this is the same pair of heels that I will be wearing to the wedding for this dress. I brought the exact heels for the EXACT measurements. I'm not new at getting alterations done so why would I wear a different heel length if I'm trying to get it hemmed to a certain length. She made the zipper part uneven, and it looked messy overall. I told her I was not happy with it and wanted a refund so that I can take it somewhere else to do a better job. She ensured that she could fix the issue and had me wait 20 minutes for her to fix it so I agreed. Once she tried to fix it, I tried it on again and the zipper part still bulged out. The length in the back of the dress was better, but the side of the dress was still shorter so I can tell that the dress was not cut evenly from the start. The lady tried to tell me it would be even after she steamed it. I can tell just by steaming it that it would not be even. Again, I asked for a refund because I did not have time that day to sit around and wait for however long for it to be fixed again. I needed to go out of town. I asked for a refund AGAIN and she finally agreed to give me a partial refund which I accepted. During the refund process, I use the same credit card that I paid with a couple days prior when I dropped off the dress, but on the receipt, their system showed a different card number. I provided them with proof and confirmation and even showed my bank statement that this was the same card that I use to pay which also listed out the business' name. They still gave me a hard time and kept going back-and-forth for around 15 to 20 minutes. It's like they thought I was lying or something. I showed them the date it was purchased with their business name and my statement. Mind you, I dropped off the dress Tuesday 1/27 and picked it up Friday 1/30 so it was only 3 days. After however, long, she finally gave me the refund via cash because they couldn't figure it out. This couple was giving me a very hard time the entire time. I do not recommend this alteration place. Their work is not great. They rush your alterations and do not care what it looks like. Seems like they just want to make a quick buck with lousy service. She nearly ruined my dress. And the length is now unfixable. Do not waste your time and money.

I called on the 3rd day and he said it will be ready. Came in on the 8th day and he did not even start it. He asked me to return the next day, when I said I cannot, he said to return in an hour. Came back in an hour and still working on it. I paid full 135$ in advance to get 2 sport coat hemmed and altered. Nice guy but Not reliable when it comes to deadlines. Came here because of positive reviews and been in business for a long time. Well this is my experience and I'm just sharing it.
