A true neighborhood gem! Mr. and Mrs. Lee have been running The Drycleaners for years, and I've…read morebeen a loyal customer for 6+ years. My husband and I bring our suits, dresses, and special-occasion pieces here all the time, and the quality and care are always consistent. Most recently, Mrs. Lee did my wedding dress alterations, including the hemming and the bustle. She was FANTASTIC! Her skill and attention to detail were incredible, and the dress fit and moved exactly the way I'd hoped. I couldn't be happier. If you want people who treat your clothes (and you!) with real care, this is the place. Highly, highly recommend!

I have used The Drycleaners a few times after having my clothes either come back missing buttons,…read moreseams, or even patches at other "chain" drycleaners. I love the family vibes and authentic feel of The Drycleaners. I had a big event and needed a suit tailored in like less than 3-4 days and before a major holiday. The suit ran big and was long/boxy. When I tell you, the tailor took my measurements quickly and efficiently and got work. Now, I paid a pretty price BUT I know I paid for her dedicated service, expertise, and her time because she is an absolute pro! I picked my suit up on time, and with no issues. I loved the outcome and took this experience as a time to enjoy my first custom suit that I will use for events in the future. Thank you!

So this review is a long time coming, but I wanted to have some 'After' pics to show off,…read moreunfortunately the official photos are still pending so audience photos will have to do. I originally reached out to Ada and a few other businesses in June to get my 'pre-wedding' (aka small, unofficial family-only ceremony) dress altered for September; it needed to be properly fitted, hemmed, and at the last minute I wanted to see if pockets could be added. Ada got back to me within a few days where some others never did and her prices were by far the best; she quoted me at a little more than $200 when the boutique I got the dress at estimated ~$800 and another business quoted me ~$500. The timeline for alterations was also significantly better which I later realized was because this is a small business where she can spend dedicated time working on the project. In total, from first fitting to final fitting, it was just a week as everything was perfect and fortunately I didn't need any later fittings as my size didn't change over the following months before the ceremony (I did try the dress back on at multiple points just in case). Overall she made the process comfortable and easy which was so nice because I was definitely an anxious bride. I hope to be able to go to her again in the future for general alterations and possibly again for my big, official wedding next year once I find that second dress! Thank you so much Ada! (and sorry it's taken me so long to review!)

This is the only place I have ever been to that does NOT list the price you will be paying once you pick up the garments. Kind of Strange. Second they do not accept American Express which is ok but still inconvenient for some. The dry cleaning is fairly well but the tailoring could be improved. Overall not a bad place at all. A few tweaks and I believe they could def become significantly better!!

I would not recommend this cleaners to anyone. I brought in a garment that they had altered only…read moresix months ago because the original repair did not hold up. From the moment I dropped it off, the woman assisting me was rude, rushed, and visibly annoyed. What stood out most was how quickly her attitude shifted when two customers who were not people of color walked in. The difference in treatment was hard to ignore. Despite my discomfort, I still left my romper for what should have been a simple sewing repair. We even safety pinned the exact area needing alteration, and I provided my full name and phone number. Three weeks later, I returned to pick it up only to be told that my information and alteration request were never saved. I was confused by this information since I watched her "entering my details" while present. The only reason he was even able to locate my garment was because I found my ticket and provided the ticket number myself. The seamstress/owner then stated they had no record of what needed to be done, and no one ever contacted me during the entire three weeks they had my garment. The employee who originally helped me claimed she "didn't know" what the request was, despite pinning the exact area herself and my asking her to have the seamstress call me with the estimated price. The entire situation was unprofessional, dismissive, and honestly upsetting. Based on the rude treatment, lack of accountability, and complete disregard for my time and belongings, I genuinely left feeling that prejudice played a role in how I was treated. To make matters worse, the person assisting me at pickup showed no concern whatsoever when I expressed my frustration. I will not be returning and would not recommend supporting this business.
