Over the past several years, my husband and I have brought in a variety of garments to be altered:…read morejackets, pants, dresses. My husband also had one gorgeous bespoke suit made. Ali Gültekin has been a tailor for decades, and his expertise has been perfect in all the work he has done for us. In addition to standard alterations, he has come up with solutions to some specific problems with pieces we brought in, for example fixing some small areas on a camel-hair coat where rough handling had removed the nap. You would never guess it to see the jacket after his repair. I believe he understands all there is to know about clothing, fabric, findings/accessories, and tailoring. His prices are quite reasonable, and he is agreeable to work with.

After reading fellow Yelpers' reviews, and a horrible series of incidents at United Dry Cleaners…read more(whom is now owned by Julian's as I write this) I now come here for my clothes services. I religiously dry clean my work shirts and suits, and it's great to come in to a place like this. They have consistently took care of my clothes, are pleasant to deal with, doesn't break the bank, and always asks me how much starch I want. I've used their tailoring services which is limited compared to their dry cleaning, but is still satisfactory. Since their prices are so cheap compared to other places I've used, I don't need to look for coupons or debate about their use, thank God. Actually, I don't think they even distribute coupons because they are competitively priced. Though Julian's have taken over my old spot I still fear the same staff is there, so I will continue to visit here for my needs. I really have to reiterate how well the customer service is. I've seen people literally walk in, dump a hamper of clothes on them and walk out without so much of a word. Not cool at all. Unlike me, they didn't get pissed and maintained a professional demeanor even after the customer left. That really resonated with me and I'll keep supporting cool people like this.

I am absolutely floored by the quality of the alterations done to my dress. What started as a $100…read moredress needing a relatively simple repair is now essentially unwearable. The first time I picked it up, they had replaced the O-ring on one adjustable strap with a clear plastic piece, while the original hardware on the other strap was clearly metal. They also used fabric from the built-in shorts to repair the strap, leaving the shorts poorly repaired with an extremely thin line of stitching that did not look like it would hold up at all. I brought the dress back and specifically asked them to correct both issues. After receiving a notification on Wednesday that my dress was completed, I went back Friday to pick it up. The safety pin was STILL in the shorts where I had asked them to repair it, so that issue clearly had not even been addressed. On top of that, they had now replaced the hardware on BOTH straps with two different metal pieces, and the pieces they used were already pulling apart. To make matters worse, my dress now has stains on it that were not there when I dropped it off. The entire reason I brought this dress to a professional tailor was because it was expensive and I wanted the repair done correctly. At this point, I genuinely feel like I could have done a better job myself. After 4 1/2+ weeks, multiple trips, and giving them the opportunity to correct the original work, I am leaving with my dress in worse condition than when I brought it in and now unable to wear it. I understand businesses get busy, but if you have more alterations than you can properly manage, it is okay to tell a customer you cannot take on the job. Taking someone's clothing and returning it damaged and poorly repaired is unacceptable. Unfortunately, I will never bring another item here for tailoring or dry cleaning.
