Very honest and good pricing for whatever is needed for alterations and always turnaround time is very good. We have been seeing Calvin for many, many years and he has not changed, very genuine person. And my husband and I travel all the way from Corona to see him since 2018 but have known him since we were living in the OC, Brea many years prior. read more

Calvin is a true tailor - very experienced! I have been taking my clothing here for about three years and everything has been a success. I am petite and my clothes have to be fitted to me properly, which Calvin does expertly. His pricing is affordable and his turn-around is speedy for the amount of items I usually bring in. Pleasant and friendly, easy parking. I highly recommend Calvin. read more

Brought my Mother of the bride dress in for alteration after another tailor botched the job. Calvin was very professional and his attention to detail was amazing! And he actually listened to how I wanted the dress to fit. He charged me $40 which was way less than I thought it would be. The dress fit like a glove and was perfect! Calvin's Tailoring is my new go to!! read more

Calvin is an outstanding tailor. His prices are fair and his work is amazing. If you need a great tailor, he's your man.

Just called to get an estimate on having some baggy sleeves on a blazer tailored, I asked for them to be shortened and tapered. The gentleman said he would have to see them in person, I asked if I could get a general estimate so I can get a general idea, it doesnt have to be a set number (you know since every other tailor i have called has provided an "estimate") His response was "its ok go to another store, dont worry about us" read more

I've never had anything tailored professionally before but I needed my bridesmaid dress trimmed and I'm kind of cutting it close on time. This place was recommended to me by friends and its close to my house. I'm assuming the man working there is Calvin and he is legit! The dress came out perfectly and the job was done quick! I brought it in on a Wednesday and he offered me the choice of Saturday to pick it up, but I selected Monday. Not sure how its done but I needed like 2 feet of dress cut from the bottom. It aint easy being a shortie. The whole thing only cost $40! read more

Calvin is by far the most friendly, reasonably priced and the only one I would trust with my tailoring needs.

I had an urgent timely need for some alterations and I called this shop as it was listed positively on Yelp and it was nearby for my purposes. Calvin, the owner, was terrific. He does all his own work so he had the expertise to do the job right and takes responsibility for it. I could not have been more pleased. He did the job very nicely and in a very timely manner. He is now my go-to tailor for any future needs. read more

Very nice guy :) and quick with service ! His pricing is also really affordable and reasonable

Friendly and good service. My brother actually dropped off a suit to get altered and I was supposed to go pick it up for him. When I did, Calvin assisted me and when he showed me the suit I checked it and the pants weren't tailored... He did the jacket but forgot to get to the pants. No biggie, we weren't in a rush for it and he said he'd get to it right away and I could pick it up in an hour. I told him no rush and that I would be back the next day. I appreciated Calvin's honesty and quick offer to solve the problem right away. The tailoring job was good and I'm sure I'll be back. read more

My husband and I bought my dress and his suit last minute for the marine corp ball and needed to get his suit pants tailored in less than 24 hrs. My coworker told us to go to Calvin for quick service at a great price. Calvin didn't let us down! He only charged my husband $5 to hem his pants by the next day! When I found out how reasonable his prices were I decided to take my dress in to him too. He only charged me $25 for a rolled hem that was finished in less than 24 hours. Calvin was very friendly and helpful. We will definitely be using him again in the future! read more

DO NOT COME HERE. Awful tailor, takes forever, and overcharges. I brought a pair of pants to have the waist and hem done. He hemmed them alright (which is simple) and then shortened the crotch line to the point where it felt like spandex. The pants were completely unwearable. So I told him and showed him what was wrong and asked that he fix them. 1 week later I come back and they're are still unbearably tight on my crotch. I show him and tell him again what the issue is and ask him to fix it. 10 days later I come back and nothing has changed. He charges me $28 and I take my pants to another tailor after he's wasted 4 weeks of my time. This new tailor charged $13 and had them done in 3 days. read more

Calvin is very helpful. I was getting ready for a funeral when I noticed my zipper in my dress was broken. I came straight here and first he said they can have it done on Wednesday. I told him it was for a funeral today, so he said I can come back at 2 and get it. Unfortunately the funeral starts at 2, so I said it was ok, I'd just wear something else. He said his wife could do it right now while I wait. To replace a longer zipper in a lined dress is only $15. Not too bad, especially for getting it done right away. Thank you Calvin read more

Love Calvin.. Great prices and will go above and beyond. If he can't do it or it wont look right, He will be honest and tell you rather than take your money and ruin something. read more

Service here is awesome. The owners are so nice and attentive and do an excellent job at half the price you would have to pay. I always tip them because I think they don't charge enough! I live in Boston, but my family lives in Fullerton, so I schelp my clothes to CA for Calvin to alter. He's the best and I would for him to get mega business rather than those that overcharge and do a crappy job! Support Calvin's tailoring. read more

Calvin is an amazing tailor who does great work at excellent prices. I highly recommend him.

Love how quickly Kao (Calvin) completes my alterations! So if you're looking for quick turn-around repairs, try this business.

Came in to have a dress taken in.Two words...Quick and perfect!!!! Not to mention pretty reasonable pricing. Will definitely becoming here for alterations in the future. read more

The owner tailor Calvin is NOT honest. Do not be fooled by his friendliness and smile. I was taken and cheated out of my money from Calvin. I was bringing my clothes to him and paying for his overpriced tailoring for all my suits and jackets. To date I have paid over $900.00 in tailoring fees charged. As a busy business woman, I always trusted him and picked up my tailored clothing (always one bunch consisting of 7-10 pieces at a time) without checking whether my clothes were actually altered. On the last pickup he was paid $215.00 for hemming up the sleeves of my 10 leather jackets and 1 cotton jacket. When the items were home, I discovered that out of the 11 jackets paid he did NOT do alterations on 4 of them. In addition, he had ironed on one of my new gray leather jacket and ruined the leather. Without admitting to his mistakes and cheating me out of my money, he cleverly placed these 4 jackets in between the other jackets knowing that I would not inspect it upon pick-up. He took advantage of my trust in him. I took these 4 jackets back to him and politely showed him what happened but he was very ugly in his response. He suddenly turned rude and denied that he ever saw these 4 jackets (that I had already paid for) and told me that I needed to pay him again if I wanted the 4 jackets to be hemmed. Needless to say I was very disappointed by his dishonesty. In addition, he lied about ever seeing my gray leather jacket which he ruined by ironing it. This owner tailor Calvin is DISHONEST AND A FRAUD. Do not go to him. read more

Calvin is awesome, he does a great job and is very quick. His prices are very reasonable. I live in Irvine, and I drive 30 mins just to get my clothes tailored from him. read more

I don't know why this guy has got good reviews. Ripped me off on the hemming of fine wool pants. Hemming Came out visible and he didn't even use matching thread on one of the pants. Continued to argue that that is how it is and it's his style. He argued and argued and kept on defending his mess. What the heck! There was a spot with thread knots clearly visible and he said I am complaining for just a 10$ job. What an attitude and what a poor job! Stay away from this rude and rip off place!!!! Save ur clothes read more

Calvin was so friendly & helpful! Never had anything hemmed before but he did an awesome job on my work pants & had them done in 2 days. Highly recommended! read more

Honesty, the owner is rude and over priced. There are better places in town to take your business and money too. I came by today to get a quote and the owner was so mean and rude to me, for a min I thought he was kidding because he was being so flat out rude. Stay away. Take your clothes to Diane's down the street. read more

Great service! I came here desperate with a bridesmaids dress that was too tight. Several other tailors told me that nothing could be done to let it out, but Calvin only took a few minutes to determine that he could fix it. The alterations were finished in a day and the dress is perfect! read more

I went in to have my work pants hemmed up. When he measured my pants hem, I noticed he was pinning them too long. I told him they seemed too long, that my heels were shorter than that. He insisted that they were fine, that the pants will shrink when I wash them and the hem will be the right length (2 work slacks - polyester types, but actually pretty nice). Well, he's the expert, so I trusted his input. I'm not picky, but when I eventually put the pants on to wear them to work, the bottom of the pant legs completely covered my shoes, with the bottom of the pant legs completely touching the floor and spreading out over my shoes. I may as well have gone to work wearing duckie slippers/leopard-print combat boots - my shoes were nowhere to be seen under that frickin bedspread, aka hem. I brought the pants back. He wanted to charge me to redo them, at half-price (but why charging me for his error?), even though the day he had measured them, I told him all my shoe heels were short but he erroneously insisted the pant hem will "shrink" after being washed. He seems like a nice guy and hemmed my first pair fine two weeks before that happened, but I will definitely not go back. It is blatantly wrong for me to be expected to pay AGAIN when it was his error. I walked out with 2 pairs of pantsfor, that were just as unusable as when I brought them in. I would love to say everything was fine, but it wasn't. He could've had a lot of easy business and plenty of referrals from me. read more
