New to the area and needed some emergency alterations for upcoming business travel. I asked a trusted friend where I should go and they explained that Annie's is (and has been!) the best place in Knoxville for as long as they have known. They proved themselves worthy of the praise! They were professionals who did a fantastic job on my projects and helped me get done what I needed on time for my trip. I loved my experience there and will be using Annie's as my permanent stop for all my needs! Can't sing their praises enough! read more

Easy drop off and pickup. Quality work. The owner is direct and not conversational, but he does a good quality job and was timely. I will definitely continue to use this business for my alterations! read more

The nicest people work here. My family and I have been coming here for many years. Santos and his team are helpful, kind and accommodating. The quality of work is incredible and pricing is more than reasonable. I was referred to them many years ago by world renowned custom suit makers at John H. Daniel. What I like about this place is it's always busy. In my experience that has always been a good sign, of a healthy business. I can confirm that this is the place to go if you're looking for quality work. My family and I drive over an hour from Gatlinburg to see Santos and his team and I've referred many people here over the years and every one of them will tell you - this is the best place with the best people. read more

I have been using Annie's alterations for many years now. I can't say enough wonderful things about the quality of their work. They always amaze me with how they can take a garment of any kind and alter it to fit me. I am petite and have many of my clothing items altered so am very thankful to have them in Knoxville. read more

They always do a fabulous job on all my alterations. And even if I need something quick, they always accommodate.

BEWARE!!! A new strapless dress was brought in to be hemmed with the tags still on the dress. I picked up the dress and brought it home to try on. I found a hole in the dress where one of the hanging straps WERE. I then brought the dress back to them to have them repair it and they denied any wrongdoing (blaming the fabric of the brand new dress) and wanted to charge me to repair the damage they caused (which I believe they could have done easily). I would NOT recommend using their services. read more

Took a work dress in to be hemmed. Outstanding quality, friendly fast service. I will definitely be coming here again.

The guy who was there when I brought my dress in was nice, got to work quickly. I asked for a hem, bring the waist and bust in, and bring the shoulders up. He took any feedback I had and told me in would be ready by the end of the month. It was ready exactly when he said it would be and it fit perfectly! read more

Needed some pants altered and had used 3 others close to home and was not pleased. So found Annie's and drove over to find him fitting a beautiful bride. Well needless to say, if he can tackle a perfectly fitted gown, I can trust him with some dress pants. Beautiful workmanship, sized right and will be back with more. read more

The guy that works here is arrogant, prejudice, prideful and disrespectful. From the moment I walked in friendly and excited to have my dress altered he immediately treated me like I was a poor, can't afford to pay him for his service kind of person. I was kind and patient with him. His demeanor and attitude was the worst. I will admit I had no idea how much the alterations would cost so I was blind as to what it cost to hem a dress. I felt he jacked up the price to get rid of me. His alteration cost more than the dress. Once he told me the cost I was floored and expressed I was not sure if I should have him do it maybe I need to shop around. He immediately blew up at me and told me to take my dress else where. He proceeded to say he didn't need my business and that he was good at his work and rich people come to him not people like me who don't make his business grow. He immediately took the pins out my dress so fast and express his disgust in me as a client. It was the most terrible experience. So after I left I was not happy but I called a couple of people I know and they suggested I go back to him since I was in a time crunch and against my better judgment I called him back and basically begged him to please alter my dress he read me up and down angry as can be and he took my dress back to alter under one condition I pay him cash right now for the work for him to start. Well I was not happy but I left the dress feeling like what a mistake on my part. Long story short he so called altered my dress which turned into a NIGHTMARE! I honestly believe he ruined my dress on purpose to teach me a lesson that he was the so called "best alteration" guy in Greenville with lots of rich customers that support this business and his other 2 businesses. He was the worst and I would NEVER go to him ever again. I ended up having to buy another dress for my event. WARNING DO NOT USE HIM AT ALL HE IS PREJUDICE, PRIDEFUL, HAUGHTY and DISRESPECTFUL! HE DOES NOT DESERVE ANY STARS! read more

Annie's has done multiple alterations for me and don't a great job each time. I brought a dress in once that another alterations shop in town said they couldn't fix. Well, Annie's fixed it and it wasn't a crazy price for what I wanted done. Highly recommend read more

I've had several items altered at Annie's including my daughter's uniform skirts, pants and dresses. They are meticulous. I highly recommend Annie's Alterations. read more

I've taken 10+ shirts or pants here to be tailored. Many items turned out fine, but a few them came back with a weird fit or were too small. And unfortunately those items are now in the trash. The risk of losing 3 out of 10 shirts is simply not worth coming back here... This is a two-star tailor. read more

Also, they don't mention that they only take cash until the very last minute at check out. Not only that, they also want exact change.

I was is a tight spot with limited time to get a uniform altered. They were so helpful and worked a miracle in a very short timeframe. 100% recommend to anyone needing alterations and sewing service. read more

I use Annie for all of my alterations, from simply hemming pants or a dress, to taking a dress up a size or two. She's always very efficient, makes good suggestions, and is quick. I've recommended her to many friends over the years and they've always been happy with her work, as well. I had two friends that were bridesmaids in someone's wedding and needed to have their dresses altered three days before the wedding, and she was able to accommodate them. She did recently moved out of the Western Plaza shopping Center to over on homburg. read more

I rarely leave bad reviews but this alteration shop is a scam. I had two suits exactly the same size and material just different colors. I brought the first suit in was charged a reasonable price. I had to drive around and look for an ATM because they only take cash or check, but nevertheless was happy with the transaction. I went back with the second suit and when picked it up they charged over twice the price of the first suit. The owner said it was t her fault they undercharged me the first time. I looked back at both receipts and they had over a 100% price increase for no reason. Will not do buisness here again read more

I go to Annie's for all my alterations. They are all so nice there and they always do a great job on everything, from nice bridesmaid dresses to simple hemming. There have been a couple times I have had to go back and get something altered and they will fix it happily for free of charge. They always operate in a timely manner and do their best to get your piece of clothing back to you when you need it. Highly recommend Annie's for all your alternating needs! read more
