9/10/2025- UPDATE
The owner asked me to reconsider taking the review down & offered a full refund and the service free of charge. I was really grateful for her offer but to be honest, I wouldn't want it even if it was free, so I politely declined. She was super apologetic and was very prompt with the refund.
9/8/2025 Original Review-
I HONESTLY WISH I WAS EXAGGERATING, BUT IF I COULD I'D GIVE THIS PLACE NEGATIVE STARS. THE SERVICE WAS SOOO BAD, I FELT LIKE I WAS ON PUNK'D.
Situation:
First time here. I brought one pair of pants to be taken in and hemmed for upcoming events. While they were calculating the cost, I asked if they could remove some glue on the fabric. A few ladies weren't sure, but an older gentleman confidently said yes--twice. I even offered to get it cleaned professionally, but they insisted they could handle it. They charged me for glue removal, printed my ticket and I was on my marry way.
Visit 1 - the lies start:
I came back to pick it up, at first the older gentlemen couldn't find it, 20mins later he finds it and tells me he didn't start working on them yet. He must've forgot because he immediately starts going on about how he couldn't start it because of the glue and that I should've checked with them or gotten it professionally removed before I came. I reminded him that I DID offer that and HE was the one that confirmed with everyone TWICE. He then decides to double down gaslighting me on how I could've gotten confused with the pickup being NEXT Wednesday, not THIS Wednesday. I don't know if he got desperate or got flustered by getting called out, but I pointed at the bottom of the ticket because it clearly shows the weekday AS WELL AS the numerical pickup date. No apologies, no nothing, he takes my ticket tells me he needs more time and hands me another ticket for next week. I was raised to respect my elders so I take my new ticket and leave it alone. I get everyone has off days, but straight up lying, doubling down and blaming/gaslighting customer on YOUR wrong doings really killed the integrity of the business for me.
Visit 2 - worse than I imagined:
When I came back a different woman helped me. My pants came out with no plastic cover (unlike everything else on the rack). I didn't say anything. I got home, tried them on, and was about to crash out. The hem was wrong, the right leg was shorter than the left by over 1.5 inches, and it wasn't even straight--completely slanted. The stitches were unfinished and unraveling. AND THE GLUE WAS STILL THERE. I blocked off work hours again just to return and show the woman. I was visibly upset and had to explain that this was my second visit, and even after being disrespected the first time, I gave them a second chance. I apologized to her because I knew it wasn't her fault, but the sheer sloppiness made my blood hot. She was kind, took full measurements, and promised to fix it herself-- I agreed and left with a new ticket. I was a bit more optimistic this time since I was starting fresh with new seamstress.
Visit 3 -Final Straw:
I came back four days after the pickup date, since I couldn't leave work sooner (9-5 job, same as their hours). The older man was at the front desk again--and told me the pants still hadn't been started and were "at the cleaners." I was absolutely stunned. No call. No update. Nothing. I asked, "why didn't anyone bother to contact me?", "why was I being charged for services and timelines they clearly had no intention of meeting?", "why was I being made to run around multiple times, taking time off work, for NOTHING?"
He started with the excuses again and we got to arguing and another woman stepped in to try and calm him down. If they had just been honest from the beginning, I could've gone somewhere else and had everything cleaned and tailored in under two weeks. Instead, they took my time, my money, and my item, and gave me nothing.
I feel absolutely robbed. Lied to, gaslit, disrespected, and ignored. HIGHLY DO NOT RECOMMEND. read more
