Julie is amazing! She is very welcoming, and was very helpful as soon as we walked in. I had her take in a dress and my boyfriend needed his jeans hemmed. She works quickly, is professional and friendly. Will be coming to her for any of my altering or tailoring needs in the future. read more

What a lovely surprise to find this tailor shop right by my house. Julie is an absolute gem, and is very well-thought and planned.

Ann was so nice and kind, we chatted about life while she sewed up a rip I had in my jacket. Very Fair price she only charged me $5 as it was a tiny tear. read more

This was my first purchase with Swiss Watch and it was absolutely flawless. I did a FaceTime video to check out the watch and it looked exactly as it did online. I was also able to purchase it at the same price it was advertised as. The watch came quickly and was in perfect condition. Exactly as advertised. Absolutely no issues. I would highly recommend buying from Swiss Watch. I know I will be a repeat client! read more

The turnaround is great, but it's not cheap. So I was disappointed when I brought a pricey Jenni Kayne tank to get taken in, and when it was time to pick it up I tried it on at the shop I noticed the top edges were digging into my underarms and the straps were too short. I showed it to Ann, but she dismissed it, saying now they won't fall off my shoulder. I left with the top, and another pair of pants (also a pricey boutique item!) that I later noticed were not hemmed to the same level. The right pant leg is noticeably shorter than the left. I will try coming back to insist she fix both, hopefully this next week. read more

I had a business trip and had to get my slacks hemmed last minute. Ann was accommodating and fast. She was able to finish them by EOD and they were perfect. I also brought in a dress, and a body suit where the straps had unglued. she fixed everything for me for a fair price. Will definitely be going back read more

Great service and very timely turn around. Has repaired leather pants, to basic hymning.

A small shop with great services. I'm petite so most of clothes need alterations. Ann has been fixing my clothes for the last 23 years. She'd always done fantastic job and quick. Thanks to her I always wear my clothes perfectly fit. Anybody need alterations should check this place out. read more

I usually never leave a review but was left disappointed after further inspecting my garment once I arrived home. I went in on a Saturday to quickly pick up a skirt I had taken in and hadn't fully analyzed the work done to the item until a little later. That's when I realized the back of the skirt had been burned at the seam. It was very disappointing as this skirt was new and hadn't been worn, but now has a burn mark on the back... A shame for the cost read more

Found out from a friend about this spot. I always take my suits, blazers, and sports coats here. She does a great job every time you tell her exactly what you want. Also if you need something in a pinch, she is very accommodating :) read more

I had a pair of linen pants hemmed here and they did a beautiful job. The length on my finished pants was exactly the same as when she did the fitting and the stitching was flawless. Very inexpensive and they were able to finish them in 2 days. I'll definitely come back here! Just an FYI, it's cash only. read more

This location is in city Heights. It is ran by Elderly woman. I dropped off my clothing on a Tuesday and it was ready by Friday. It just needed to be cut in length, which cost me $12. I think that's a bit overpriced but she did a good job. read more

Very sweet, helpful lady altered two of my dresses. Took them in at the waist beautifully. They were ready just a few days later right when she said they would. Prices are fair and service is quick. I will be coming back. read more

Ann was fast and her prices were reasonable. She does a great job. I have used her for years for my suits alterations and pants hemming. I am always pleased were her professional service. read more

Ann took my last minute rush jeans alteration and took care of it. I'm glad I found this shop.

I bought a few new pairs of jeans a month or two ago, and I found Ann thanks to Yelp. I dropped off two pairs of jeans and she told me I could pick them up on Saturday. I stopped in and she had forgotten, so I had to return later in the day. Ann really felt bad, so I assume this doesn't happen that often. Willing to overlook the inconvenience as the price was very fair... $9 each, cash. I'll be back here next time I grab a pair of jeans, as it's walking distance from my house. Parking? Not so easy. read more

Ann's is really close to where I live, so when I had a few things that needed tailoring, this was my first choice. The shop is nice inside, with everything a tailor's shop should have: try-on rooms, a mirror with a pedestal to stand on, and a nice lady with a very heavy accent wielding pins and chalk. I had 4 items, the total came to around $40, which I thought was a little high. I paid most of it in advance, and the rest when I picked it up. I was told I could pick up my items on a Wednesday, but when I showed up that afternoon - during business hours - the shop was closed! A bit inconvenient, but everybody needs to cut out early sometimes, right? Anyway, Ann did a great job! I'll probably keep going back, since she's so close. read more

Fast but pricey and a bad attitude if you have to come back to get your original order done correctly. I recently moved to the area and was in search for an alteration place. I chose this place because of the good yelp reviews and proximity. I came here to get some pants and dresses altered. All of my clothing just needed to be hemmed for my height. I didn't ask for anything difficult. Ann was very nice while I was there the first time. She even said she'd have them done in 2 days. When I went back to pick them up I didn't have time to try them on there. Once I finally tried them on at home, I found out they were all too long. I decided to just bring back the dresses for her to fix and wearing higher heels with my pants. When I went back to tell her my dresses were still too long she gave me so much attitude!!!! She said it was my fault for not taking the time to look in the mirror on the first day when she was measuring it. It was definitely not my fault and even if it was she shouldn't be giving that attitude to her customers. I will not be coming back ! I actually went to another store, Charlie's on Adam's, and had the pants that she hemmed and left too long hemmed again. I had a such a better experience there and they were done correctly without and attitude too! read more

My boyfriend/husband and I have taken in three suits and dozens of pants to get altered. We had 2 old suits that were cut like coke machines and Ann turned them into slim fitting, tailored suits. Anyone can do a hem, but altering suits is tricky and we were really impressed. Prices are very reasonable, and the service is great. Parking can be a little tough, but if you're lucky there is 15 or 30 min parking right out front. I'm dropping off shorts that need a new zipper and picking up some pants that were hemmed today! read more

I had a jumpsuit that had a small rip and broken zipper--I definitely need to start working out again! *sadface I went in and she said it'd be available the next day. I paid only $3. Next day I came in, picked it up and done. Nothing else much to say. It was a very simple experience and it was right around the corner from where I live. read more

Very professional and prompt! I would be happy to return here whenever I have more alterations to do. She does ask that you pay in cash, but was up front about that when I dropped my garments off. read more

I agree with the unimpressive store front but that is not important to me. I went to her because she had good reviews and she was close to me. I took in a dress that was too big. She was fast and did a great job! I think she was reasonably priced. She charged me $25. read more

Have been going here since I moved to Mira Mesa about 30 years ago!

Anne is AWESOME literally the best tailor of all time! I bring my favorite robe to her and my pants and she does a great job everytime

I went in on a Monday with 2 sets of school uniforms from my culinary school to get pants hemmed and sleeves shortened. I was told it would take a week to get done. No biggie. But the next day I go to school and sort of get reprimanded about not coming to class in uniform, so at the end of the day my chef instructor is like, "Come to class in uniform Thursday." So I drop by Ann's and ask if I can take/pick up one set of my uniforms to wear, even though she hasn't fixed either set yet. My thinking was that she could fix one set by Monday (as agreed), while in the meantime I had a set (unfinished) to wear to school. Just so I don't get in trouble again. But she said she could fix one set in time for school the next day at no extra charge (I already paid her in advance). When I picked up the one altered uniform, it fit perfectly. I didn't feel like a little kid swimming in oversized pajamas, no needing to fold anything up. I'll definitely go back for other clothing items, because Buddha knows my short arms & legs need it. read more

I've tried many tailors and haven't been to anyone better. I've had pant legs hemmed, slimmed, sweater zipper replaced and other items. All done fast, great quality and very reasonable price. read more
