Did they close?!?! Atmosphere - Small local business. Limited metered street parking. Open 6 days a week; closed Wednesdays. Service - Good, easy in and out. Drop off, and pick up a month later. Yes, they are busy. Price - $28 to replace a zipper on one of my wife's purses. Owner Comment - Not sure how long you have been here, but we (my wife and I) have been customers for almost 20 years. :)

Le is so sweet and works super fast. She turned my blobby dress into one that makes me feel so confident. I am so glad that it is so close to me and working with her on what I wanted it to look like and how much to take in was a very easy process. You are either allowed to pay for it when you drop it off or when you pick it up. I opted for paying for it when I dropped it off because I knew that in the past, it was always very professional and the work was top-tier quality. Even though they are super busy during this prom and wedding season, my dress was ready for me within a week. I call that amazing! Can't wait to bring more things here in the future.

I never leave 1-star reviews, but this place has genuinely earned it…read more I came in before my wedding to get my suit altered and brought my bridal party along. I already had suits ordered and just needed minor work done. My own tailor had told me to expect no more than $40 for what I needed. This guy quoted me $200. When I said that was too high and that I'd take my business elsewhere, he turned on me and my friends and told us we had "wasted his time." He got hostile when I declined paying an overpriced quote. My friends felt so pressured that we ended up agreeing to a smaller amount of work. Even that was overpriced. And the quality? Absolutely unacceptable. The seams were visible. The stitching was clearly not done properly. And on my wedding day, the moment I stepped into my suit pants, the hem ripped completely. On my wedding day... This man was rude, his prices were outrageous, and his work fell apart literally on the most important day of my life. If you are considering coming here for anything, especially for a special occasion, please take my experience as a warning and go somewhere else. I would also avoid the Alameda Red Hanger Cleaners on South Shore, as they appear to be connected.

It looked as if that's exactly how the dress came in. At the appointment, the owner takes the time to understand how it's supposed look, and how you want it to fit. After the appointment, it was very easy to communicate with the owner. He responded promptly and was transparent. I had to schedule a last minute hemming request and it was done on time! If you're in a pickle, just call and see if he can do it. He will not schedule an appointment if he knows he cannot get it done on time, which I appreciate for being direct. I'll definitely come back but this time without any last minute requests!

He's very kind, understanding, and is a master of the craft. Below is a recent before and after of a vintage thobe I thrifted that needed some love. It was originally way too large for me and I wanted to convert to short sleeves & lose the 70s shoulder poof without removing any of the handmade cross stitch embroidery. The after picture speaks for itself. The thobe fits perfect with all the right details I wanted Thank you as always for the excellent work!

I had no idea who he is and he started to scream at me "you can't drive here!" WTF? No introduction. No context to why he is saying that. But he just kept saying "this is private property! You can't drive through here". Of course, I would get defensive! I had two young kids with me and the other side had construction going on. Where else am I going to go?! And honestly if he would have introduced himself and explained it was a drive-thru it would of made sense. I only later found out because the daycare teacher told me. But seriously? You cannot come out yelling without any context. No one can read your mind. I could have acted in self-defense if you had come closer. I could have kicked you in the face to protect my kids because you were EXTREMELY hostile. Honestly put up a freaking sign! NO ONE knows that it is a drive-thru. Stop yelling at people for not being able to read your mind. PUT UP A SIGN!
