    Amazing service! The shoe spray I purchased for my suede shoes worked amazing! Harry was so kind!…read moreThe only shoe repair I will go to. I would highly recommend!

    I went there this afternoon to add holes to my five Ferragamo belts -- nine holes total. The…read moreemployee who first helped me was polite and professional, and I was told the job would take about 10-15 minutes, so I decided to stay in the shop and wait. My mistake was not asking for the price upfront because, honestly, I never imagined that adding a few simple holes to belts would turn into one of the most ridiculous service experiences I've had in a long time. A little later, another man walked in, probably the owner. The atmosphere immediately changed. When the work was finished and I asked how much I owed, he casually said "$70." For a second, I genuinely thought I misunderstood him. Seventy dollars for nine holes in leather belts that took less than five minutes total. When I questioned the price, he started giving me explanations about how the belts are expensive, designer items and therefore they have to charge more "in case something goes wrong" and they would supposedly need to replace them. He repeatedly emphasized "$8 per hole," as if this was some highly specialized luxury procedure rather than simply punching a tiny hole through leather. What made the explanation even harder to take seriously is that the work itself was extremely basic. No restoration, no stitching, no custom resizing, no craftsmanship involved beyond a quick hole punch. I literally didn't even finish my chess game while waiting. The entire thing was done almost immediately. I completely understand businesses charging fair prices for skilled labor and quality work. That's not the issue here. The issue is feeling like the price was made up on the spot the moment they realized the belts were Ferragamo. Whether they charge $2 or $14 per hole changes absolutely nothing about the so-called "risk" they were talking about. The whole interaction left a very unpleasant impression. Instead of transparency and straightforward pricing, it felt opportunistic and unnecessarily greedy. Had they simply told me the cost beforehand, I would have walked out immediately and gone elsewhere. I paid because the work was already completed and I didn't want to argue any further, but charging $70 for something this simple is absurd. Completely overpriced, poorly justified, and honestly disappointing. Definitely not recommended.

    Vahe did a wonderful job. I brought in old vintage sandals from South Africa that my girlfriend…read morethrifted awhile back. The sole on both was cracked and the metal base was fully coming out of both shoes (I don't have good before pictures). I had taken them to several different spots and been told they were too damaged to be fixed. However, Vahe took one look at them and said he would try. I just got them back today and they are better than I ever expected (and I expected good things). My girlfriend loves them and feels so pretty in them, perfect timing for summer. I also appreciate Vahe's patience with me as I came in several times to check on their progress. Although it took him a few weeks it was well worth the wait and I love how he took his time to ensure that they were perfect. I will definitely be back when I have other shoes that inevitably fall apart. Thank you Vahe!

    Nice guy, but completely inept. I took a pair of shoes to have new heels put on. A couple months…read morelater one of the heels fell off, and I had to have it reattached. No big deal and when I went to pick up the shoes, I asked the guy to keep them another day and clean them up and polish them. That's it. I went in the following day and the shoes were a completely different color, no personality whatsoever. In short, the shoes did not look anything like they looked even when they were new. This guy went out of his way to make them look completely different. Anyway, I would be very careful with this guy.
