I requested altering a sleeveless top for my wedding. I gave the date needed. They didn't have it ready. They rushed it and didn't do a good job. The garment sagged under the arms and was a size too big overall. I had to pin it with safety pins on my wedding day. One more thing...when I picked it up I requested to try it on. They didn't have time! I won't go back. read more

The owner doesn't speak English and he laughs at you if you don't understand. The owner completely messed up my brother's suit, one leg was longer than the other and the shoulders were sticking out. When we told him to fix it he just laughed. We already paid for the tailoring up front otherwise we would just take it somewhere else. read more

I had an older suit I needed resized since I lost a few pounds. Excellent work, nice people. A bit pricey but certainly cheaper than buying a new suit. read more

Extremely expensive. To shorten a simple cotton dress, single layer was $89. Highway robbery

They did not listen! They were very expensive. The work was not correct and I would not dream of going back to them. I will never go back and I would recommend the same to everybody else. Life is too short for dealng with people like these. I now need to find another tailor to fix what they ruined. read more

Great quality. Fairly priced. Finished on time. Nice staff. Easy to get to and park.

Originally quoted $21 to shorten Mens slacks I brought in 3 pairs and he wanted $100. Forget it

Ding's is the absolute best tailor shop. Very nice couple who are very friendly, and do the best work. I will continue to go back to them.

I highly recommend Ding's Tailoring! The sweetest couple and very affordable and talented! Located right and Hollister and Patterson, super convenient location. I was looking for someone to sew a fur coat arm that had torn (lining and fur) and they were more than happy to help! I picked it up a few days later and it looked as good as new! They are very happy business owners and I will most definitely be back. Support local! read more

Went to hem and slim pants and Ding's Tailoring did a great job with a quick turnaround time. Very easy to work with. When I picked up my pants I brought a shirt that had a button popped out and he sewed it within five minutes read more

service I requested not given quality was below average sloppy and value not worth what I paid. Poor communication skills saying yes to me to agree to do what i requested and later not honoring what they agreed on and lying by saying he did not agree to my request! I do not recommend this man. Also very high priced for bad rude service and price read more

Guy is an actual scam artist. Tried to charge me $60 to sew on a couple patches on a military uniform. Wouldn't budge at all. Got it done in 10 minutes for $10 at another place... read more

Quality hemming on 2 jumpsuits. Decent turn around time, friendly staff, convenient location.

Cute couple working hard to make alterations on time and for a good price. I've had several things altered and they were all perfect.

This tailoring service is both quality and efficient! I called earlier as my favorite bag strap had become undone. Ding took me in immediately and fixed my bag free of charge! Highly consider this tailoring service for any issues you are experiencing with your favorite garments. In addition, my roommate came here to fix her graduation dress and they fixed it the same day for a great price! Highly recommend! read more

Great experience with Ding. He sewed up my torn hoodie on short notice and he did such a great job that I can hardly see the stitches. Pricing was reasonable. Highly recommend for mending clothes. read more

Great work, fast turn around and fairly priced. Definitely coming back when I need items tailored.

Needed to get pants taken in and it was a super-easy stop. Took five minutes to get measured up and my pants were done exactly on time. Price was definitely fair and the service was great. read more

Recommended! I had a bunch of pants that I needed hemmed. Fast turn around, super friendly, no frills shop. Very happy with the results. I will return for all my garment alteration needs! read more

We drove up to Santa Barbara from LA to elope at the courthouse, and had ordered a suit from The Black Tux. We wrongly assumed the pants would fit because they were supposed to be custom order, but when my (now) husband tried them on they were so long! We went into emergency panic mode to try to get them hemmed where we were staying in Montecito, and every tailor we reached out to said it was too short notice and it would be hundreds of dollars to rush it. Ding's tailoring promptly sent us a message saying they could do it that day for a flat fee of $22! Since we were getting married the next day and had zero time to spare, we took the shirt drive to Goleta and it was so worth it. When we got there, she had him try on the pants on with his shoes, then told us to come back in a hour. We went to grab some coffee, and about an hour later, the pants were done and looked PERFECT! Ding's Tailoring came through and saved the day! Thank you for doing such beautiful work on such short notice- it made a world of difference in how he felt the next day and how our photos will come out. read more

I needed two pairs of quality work pants hemmed about 4 cm at the bottom and asked if it could be done within a week. The owners of Ding's Tailoring took care of it within the time frame, and I paid upfront at a reasonable price point. Thank you! read more

I haven't had to have many alterations done in a few years so I didn't know where to go. I had a bridesmaid dress that needed hemming and strap shortening. They were quick to measure and pin, promised it back within a week, and were prompt and did a great job! The price was a lot for alterations (which are expensive, I know!), but still $20-30 less expensive than some other shops I checked out. Would go back! read more

I had gotten a new shirt for an event that coming weekend and it was WAY too big. I popped in on Tuesday and they had it tailored perfectly by Thursday, and it looked amazing on me! 5 stars for Ding's! read more

I needed a simple tailoring. Just the bottom section of my daughter's Halloween dress removed and then placed about 5 inches higher. It probably took them Maybe 3 min. It cost me $30. When she tried it on this morning before leaving for school I saw there was a section gaping. One single running stitch was done around it to keep it on and there was a section where they had stitched above the piece and then back down so it wasn't connected. I quickly had to use 2 safety pins to hold it on and hope she doesn't pull on the dress at all or it will probably come apart. For $30? Not great read more

I was very happy with my service at Ding's Tailoring! I appreciated the online booking system and his quick turnaround service.

My fiancé got his suit altered here and it was great! Quick service and the suit looked awesome. It was done in less than a week and was perfect. Thank you! read more

Fantastic!!! I took my daughter there to have her dress fitted for Prom. The husband and wife were very sweet and helpful. They helped us figure out exactly what needed to be done. They even had it done in time which was only a few days!!! Amazing! I will definitely be back! I tipped them for such a quick turnaround and they were soo grateful and surprised! Please try them and remember to be kind to those that work hard for us read more

I needed two pair of pants tailored, just hemmed from the bottom ( a very easy fix) that probably took 5 minutes in total for both and i got charged $59, which i think is a little overpriced but in desperate need I agreed. I came on Friday and was told that by Sunday it would be ready, I'm from out of town so I called ahead of time on Tuesday to confirm that my pants were ready for pickup, I spoke to the owners wife and she confirmed that they were ready for pickup. I drove an hour (considering I just moved) and upon arrival the woman was very confused and had confused me with someone else and unfortunately my pants were not ready at all. Due to her miscommunication I was misinformed that they were ready. Finally a few days later when my pants were done, I did not receive a phone call or anything notifying me that they were ready. On the communication aspect with their customers on time, I believe they're lacking. I was really bummed to have to write this review especially considering my husband had such a great experience getting his wedding tuxedo tailored. I believe the owner worked with him. This review is definitely more reflective on his wife. I'd love to maybe retry this place but work directly with just the owner. read more

Wow! A Goleta treasure hidden in plain sight! I brought a dress in for alterations...they did an excellent job, in a short time, and cost was very reasonable. I am so happy to find such a talented tailor that is nice, reliable and efficient. YES!!!! read more

They are professional and easy to work with. They helped me with my wedding dress and my fiancé's suit. I highly recommend them.

Great experience & amazing turn around time!! I took 2 of my dresses and my fiancés wedding suit there. I highly recommend

very accommodating. did a great job. would use them again for sure. Had my draperies hemmed.

I needed my yellow pants hemmed very quickly and I called about 5 different tailors in SB and none answered. Thankfully Dings tailoring did. I went in and they welcomed me with a smile, I left the pants at 4:45pm, checked into my hotel and was able to pick up my hemmed pants at 5:20pm same day for only $15!! I was very happy with the job they did and anytime I need alternations in SB they will be my go-to. Pls support their business you will not be disappointed!! read more

I don't have much experience getting clothes tailored / altered, but I've now taken a suite jacket and pants to be tailored, and some regular pants to be hemmed. Both experiences were awesome and my clothes turned out great! They fit and look so much better than they did before. My interactions with the tailors have been been great as well. 10/10 read more
