Recently took my Alice bomber jacket to Blanca's Alteration Shop on Broadway, and I couldn't be happier with the results. I dropped it off on 03/13 and picked it up today--overall a quick and smooth turnaround. Hector assisted me throughout the process and made everything easy from start to finish. I had the body length of the jacket cropped by about two inches, which also required adjusting the zipper. The stitching came out incredibly clean and looks professional--you honestly can't even tell it was altered. On top of that, the price for the service was very reasonable, especially considering the quality of the work. I left completely satisfied and will definitely be coming back for future alterations. Highly recommend them to anyone looking for quality tailoring. Cheers! read more

I purchased an outfit from fashion nova, which usually fits me great. However, this particular outfit showed a lot of boobs and this was my daughter's baby shower for my first granddaughter, and that wasn't the look I was trying to give. I called Blanca's tailor shop and I believe his name was Hector. In a last minute effort I asked him if he could possibly re-create this outfit for me. He did an amazing job in 2 days. That outfit fit perfect I had so many compliments with a cherry theme baby shower for my daughter. This outfit was definitely giving cherry on top. read more

Service was amazing--accommodating, professional, and honestly, impressively fast! I ordered a simple courthouse wedding dress online and took my own measurements, thinking it would be a perfect fit... but it definitely wasn't. In a bit of a panic, I turned to Yelp for help and found a few local alteration options. While I was contacted by someone else first, this shop immediately felt more legit and professional--and I'm so glad I went with them. It's a small shop, easy to find, and they got right to work. The whole pinning process took maybe 5-8 minutes, and we were out the door. A few days later, my dress fit like it was made for me. I'm so grateful for their efficiency and skill. Thank you so much for saving my wedding look! I can't wait to wear it next week, and I'll definitely try to upload photos afterward. read more

Hector runs this shop. He's a very talented tailor. I engaged him to create and attach a dramatic Marilyn Monroe/Madonna bow with floor length tails to a pink satin gown I wore to my legacy 1980s themed birthday party. Two other tailors passed on the job finding it too complicated and not having the confidence to execute it well. Hector worked with me to get it just the right size that created the drama I was seeking. He also had to fit the gown which was too large, and line the pink satin bow and tails with black satin. He did an amazing, flawless job and was very reasonable in his price. Also, he is professional but also funny, charming and just a pleasure to work with. I am going to him with all my tailoring needs! read more

I asked for a quote on Yelp and this business responded to me right away with the quote. The response was great and customer service was perfect. We took 3 pairs of men's pants in for new hems. There is a fitting room for customers to change into the clothing in order for the alterations and tailor measurements. The shop is setup very professionally and it is clean. Hector handled our measurements and the pants hemming. He gave us a ticket for pickup and the date of the pickup. On pickup day I called because I was running late. Hector was very understanding. I arrived and the pants were very well hemmed. I paid him and also requested a new service for my women's suit jacket that has a hole in it. He looked at the suit jacket and told me he could mend it. The customer service here is perfect. They also offer same day alterations for a little more, which is very worth it. I have found my new tailor in San Diego! They are up front and honest about their work, with great customer service and great work! Thank you! read more

Héctor is great! Quick turnaround time and excellent attention to detail. I brought in a blazer that needed some arrangements..

Amazing experience getting my suite fitted and jeans hemmed. So professional and high quality work for the value. Client for life.

I needed to get a dressed hemmed and Hector was super quick and efficient. The second time my boyfriend and I came here, we need to get our pants hemmed. I originally got my pants hemmed somewhere else but the thread came undone, so I had Hector fix it. My boyfriend came and brought one of his pants to get hemmed too. I highly recommend checking out Hector. Super helpful and fast! Thank you, Hector!!! read more

Hector was an incredible tailor. He hemmed my bridesmaids dress beautifully and had it done within a short notice. I would highly recommend!

Reached out to them via Yelp and they responded quickly, even after hours! I sent them a photo of a tear of the collar lining that happened on a delicate Filipinia bolero that was made in the Philippines. I brought it over and the tailor Hector said he was able to fix it and said that the neckline may be shorter. I was totally fine with that. Within a few days it was already repaired, pricing was reasonable and the bolero looked brand new! Definitely recommend this tailor shop for any alteration needs. Definitely coming back if I need anything else altered or repaired. read more

I wanted a semi-formal reproduction of my favorite formal ballgown; Héctor did a terrific job and for a good price even making suggestions that made it turn out better for me! Iliana and Héctor have a wonderful customer service friendly, can-do, attitude. Iliana was very responsive to my requests from day 1, getting back to me right away. I needed help finding the materials and they sent me to the perfect vendors to get exactly what I envisioned. No wonder this gem of a tailor shop is swamped with business!---I will definitely be back! Drop by. You'll be glad you did. Happy Summer Everyone!!! read more

Hector is a very kind friendly, funny person. He was so helpful with my husband and I. He took his time to explain the process with us. From where he felt the hem would look best on my very delicate jumpsuit, also suggesting a different kind of button which was a game changer. I will also give an update once we receive our clothing. read more
