I recently had the pleasure of entrusting my prized Zegna sports jacket to Tailoring by Mamak in La Jolla, California, and I must say, the experience was nothing short of exceptional. From the moment I walked in, Ms. Mansoreh's professionalism and attention to detail were immediately evident. My jacket, which was in dire need of adjustment in the shoulders, sleeves, and sides, seemed daunting, but Ms. Mansoreh tackled it with unparalleled skill and expertise. The results were nothing short of transformative. Once oversized and ill-fitting, the jacket now sits on me like it was custom-made. The precision in the alterations to the shoulders, sleeves, and sides was remarkable -- a testament to Ms. Mansoreh's craftsmanship. What impressed me equally was Ms. Mansoreh's professionalism and courtesy. She took the time to understand my preferences, ensuring that the final result met and exceeded my expectations. She kept me informed and involved throughout the process, creating a collaborative and enjoyable tailoring experience. One aspect that truly stood out was the prompt delivery of the finished product. Ms. Mansoreh met and exceeded the promised timeline, allowing me to enjoy my impeccably tailored jacket sooner than expected. In summary, Tailoring by Mamak is a hidden gem in La Jolla. Ms. Mansoreh's skills as a tailor are unmatched, and her dedication to customer satisfaction is truly commendable. I left her studio not only with a flawlessly tailored jacket but also with a newfound appreciation for the artistry of tailoring. If you need expert tailoring and a personalized touch, I wholeheartedly recommend Tailoring by Mamak. Thank you, Ms. Mansoreh, for your outstanding work and for making me a genuinely satisfied customer. read more

Mamak saved the day on my wedding day!!! She is truly an angel. The original bridal store (not from Mamak but a different store in Orange County) where I had bought my dress had altered my dress and added sleeves, but they were slow with alterations and the sleeves still needed to be attached at my final fitting. My mom had picked up the dress on Friday and when I tried it on Saturday night, the part that had been added to cover the back would not close (there was a 3-4 inch gap!). Thankfully, I had met Mamak earlier in the week to alter some of my other dresses for my wedding events, which she altered beautifully! I called and texted her in case she happened to be available. She came straight to the hotel where I was getting ready, had me try on the dress, and knew right away how to fix it so the dress would close properly. She hand sewed nonstop for 2 hours so that the dress would be finished in time for our first look. She even waited patiently while my photographer got some getting ready photos so that she could show my mom how to bustle my dress. You cannot even tell that she had to add extra Tulle to the back and she was expertly was able to take flowers from other parts of the dress to cover the back so that the whole piece looked seamless. I am so grateful that she came to save the day when I had a real life fashion emergency and highly recommend her for any tailoring needs!! read more

I recently had the pleasure of working with the amazing tailor, Mamak, and I cannot recommend her highly enough! She did an absolutely fantastic job resizing and shortening my wedding dress, and even added bustles to make it easier to dance the night away! From the moment I walked into her studio, I knew I was in good hands. She was warm, friendly, and professional, and took the time to listen to my needs and preferences. She made excellent suggestions for alterations and worked with me to ensure that every detail was perfect. The end result was simply stunning! My dress fit me like a glove and looked absolutely beautiful on my wedding day. I received so many compliments on how well it fit, and I felt like a true princess. I couldn't have been happier with the work that Mamak did. If you're looking for a talented and skilled tailor who truly cares about her clients and their needs, look no further than Mamak. She is a true professional and a joy to work with, and I will definitely be returning to her for any future alterations I may need. Thank you so much for making my wedding day so special! read more

Mamak was a life saver, after another tailor did an awful job on my daughter's wedding dress, there were many things that needed to be corrected. It was only three weeks before the wedding and Mamak couldn't have been sweeter and more empathetic. She immediately saw what needed to be corrected and also gave very professional suggestions that as lay people we would have never known. We picked up the dress today, 6 days before the wedding, and she did an outstanding job. In addition, her pricing is very reasonable and her personality is the sweetest. I highly recommend her services and expertise, even if you have to drive a distance. read more

Her prices are fair and your items will be ready promptly. After all these years, I am so happy that she has decided to open up her own shop and showcase her amazing skills. Once you use her, you'll never look elsewhere. This is the new hidden gem of La Jolla. read more

Mamak is our new go-to for anything dress related. We just moved here from the bay area and were looking for a new tailor, and Mamak is even better than what we were expecting. The turn around time was very quick, the dress looks stunning, and she added hanger straps for me without us asking (which it needed, it was a strapless dress). The hanger straps look amazing, as well as the added corset back. She is truly talented, and we couldn't be happier to have found her. We will definitely be coming back for my homecoming dress, senior prom dress, and anything in between. read more

Mamak is beyond talented! Her eye and capabilities are top notch and after spending 10 years in New York wearing only bespoke dresses, she is the only person in the San Diego area we trust. We bring her fabric we love and our ideas and she makes magic with them. Elegant lines, expertly sewn, we were wearing an Oscar De La Renta dress while we waited for her to complete something in our new seasonal colors and now we can put it in the closet. She is the best and now we can truly feel we are home on the west coast read more

ABSOLUTELY get your tailoring done here!! We came in to make some adjustments to a prom dress (taking in the sides and the bottom of the dress) and Mamak did incredibly! Not only does the dress fit like a glove now, but she also made a matching hair accessory (which she made complimentary) and bow tie from the excess fabric of the dress as well!! She is truly so talented and so kind and creative! Could not recommend her more and will definitely be coming to her again! read more

I had a "fashion emergency" with a formal dress....and only a few days to find a solution. I called Mamak and explained my problem...she understood and was willing to help. I was super impressed with her knowledge, meticulous attention to detail and calm reassurance...within 2 days my problem was solved in the most professional manner!! What a pleasure to find such a nice person who produced perfect results!! Thank you Mamak! read more

I cannot recommend this place highly enough. Just days before my friend's graduation, the person who was supposed to do some personalized sewing on a white coat completely bailed on me. With very little notice and an already packed schedule, Mamak still found time to help me out. She even came in early to get it done in just a day for me and it came out perfectly. I will definitely be coming back to her again in the future! read more

Amazing hospitality, and great tailoring of my pants and sweater. I shredded my pants and was planning on throwing them out, but Mamak courteously offered to quickly fix them and gave them a second life! I had originally come in for my sweater sleeves as they were too long and she adjusted their length seamlessly. I also ended up getting a really nice Louis belt that I wear like all the time and get questions about. read more

Mamak is an AMAZING seamstress and beautiful person. I took 4 dresses her the week of my wedding on short notice and she altered them all beautifully in time for all of our wedding events. She knew right away how to take in the shoulders or change necklines so that they fit beautifully, and this was working with hand sewn designer and intricate dresses. I am so grateful for her fabulous work and kind heart!!! read more

My go-to alterations lady is truly the best you'll find! She can pretty much do it all--if you can ask for it, she can most likely make it happen. She is always on time, if not early, and consistently has everything ready when promised. Hands down, she is one of the best people I've ever had the pleasure of working with. I can't recommend her enough! read more

Mamak is the best! She is the best tailor in San Diego. I wanted the best dress for my daughter's wedding. I came to Mamak and she designed and made it from scratch! I couldn't believe it. I couldn't believe the quality of the dress for what I paid for. I would've paid so much more but she didn't let me. She is amazing. read more
