    I cannot deny how excellent this place is. Amazing tailoring service!!! Thanks, Nikola for rushing…read moremy order and applying great alterations to my dress. I've been a loyal customer for years and learning that Stephen has retired was hard but I'm happy that he left the business in great hands. Can't wait to return

    This was such an amazing experience. Ask for Chris, he's an incredible artist when it comes to…read moretailoring. I bought my tuxedo for my wedding at a fancy-pants made to order website based out of NYC. They had my measurements, and all was set for the perfect tux. Well, when it finally arrived, it looked like someone had painted it on to my body. I could hardly breathe, let alone anticipate moving around or enjoying myself. Thankfully I came across Chris' website- "Stephen The Tailor". I quickly booked an appointment. Chris was kind, funny, and welcoming to me and my (now) wife. He put us both at ease, helping navigate all that needed to happen. Neither one of us imagined that the suit that was delivered would be salvaged. Chris, must have taken every stitch out of this three piece to reconstruct the perfect tuxedo for me. I still cannot identify what he retooled. Easily the mark of a true craftsman and expert tailor. The photos speak for themselves. It was the perfect outfit for the perfect day. The dry cleaning alone was flawless (my wife was wishing that's where she took her dress prior to our wedding)! Needless to say, I'm all in with this shop. They get the good dry cleaning, and Chris is hired to make all of my future suits! That's right, he's a bespoke suit maker, too. If only I had come to him first... he could have easily crafted this outfit- Jacket, shirt, vest... all of it. Save yourself the headache. Go see Chris. He's the only person I will be seeing moving forward! Thank you Chris!! You're a true hero to us both!!

    I'm so happy I finally found a tailor I trust! I've had a skirt taken in and the sleeve of a jacket…read morereattached, and both times the work was done well. I have a few more things I'll be bringing for tailoring now that I know they do a good job. I've also taken several pairs of shoes to be repaired, - heels replaced and a zipper replaced - and those were done well too. In all, I think it's a bit pricey, but I happy to pay it. I've had several tailors and cobblers ruin things in the past, so I'm willing to pay whatever the rate is to know my items will turn out well.

    Horrible experience, horrible drycleaning, poor service recovery. Quite frankly I am surprised this…read moreplace in business, and even more surprised by its high rating. I've gone to several other dry cleaners with lower ratings but far superior results. I dropped off four shirts and two suits. The suits came back with white marks and weird chemical stains/marks all over them. I literally had both of them re-cleaned. Both of these were visible and easily noticeable in any quality assurance check. They lost one of my three shirts but ended up finding it. This is partially because, unlike most dry cleaners, they do not tie all the items together. One shirt was accidentally pulled and put on a delivery truck. I had to make a special trip back the next day to pick up the missing shirt. The shirts had yellow colouring on the colours and did not appear clean. I ended up having all shirts re-cleaned as well. I did not feel satisfied at all. I raised my concerns to management who offered me a free clean when I am back in DC again. Obviously given this experience I am not going to take them up on this offer - as my garments actually seem more damaged than cleaned. To me, the right answer is to refund my payment, improve their processes, and then ask me to come back. This did not occur. No apology, no remorse, just tried to explain that no one would see the damage or colour.
