Super late on this review. Like 2 years later... But I just wanted to say Herb is the man! I was gifting my wife on our wedding day a North Face jacket and got it embroidered "Mrs. Tolentino" on the back. It's the wife's favorite jacket! Herb was super friendly. I got to chat with him while he worked his magic. His business may be in his garage but everything about him and his business was very professional. I definitely would go back and get more things made by him! Thanks again Herb! read more

They would improve if they would reply to voice mail messages. Voicemail appears to be the only way to contact. If they had at least done that who knows how positive I might have been. Since they seem uninterested in my business, what's to review? read more

Herb really came through for the holidays. I needed to finalize a memory quilt for my daughter. He took the time with size, font and color. Best part, it was all done in less than an hour. read more

Called in for an embroidery patch quote, I send over my design and he gives me a quote. Later he calls me and says he won't be able to do the colors exactly the way it is. (Only 3 colors gray blue and green) after some back and forth begrudgingly tells me he could probably do the colors but it would cost extra now because he has to change it out in his machine. This was a patch for a my bosses logo so we had to have the exact same colors. It didn't make sense to me that he was trying to get me to get off-colors of our logo made, just to reveal he can but it'll be so much work to change out the colors in his machine that it will cost 100 dollars extra to get the exact colors. I never ended up going inside because of the way the customer service was over the phone read more

I took two Items to be embroidered with my high functioning special needs cousins name. I wanted to make them special and easy for him to tell his things apart from the other residents of his group home. They did a wonderful job. read more

Herb does it again... I was so happy with my embroidered jeans that he did previously So I had him custom embroider hats for me too. We ran into a little speed bump on stitching over the seam of the hat but Herb used his creativity and persistence to get the job done. He also gave me another option (embroidered patch) so I can have a different look on my hat. Herb is very meticulous about his work and passionate about what he does. If your looking for someone to go the extra mile Herb is your guy. Mahalo Herb for your Aloha and expertise. take care, God bless and support local business read more

I called about 10 different spots off the top results of yelp with average 3-4 stars and 30 review plus. No one could do my request within my time frame. I wanted to do a monogram on an electric blanket before Christmas, simple 3 letters (Yeah I know it's late). Anyway, I got to this one with zero expectations and about to give up, but I really wanted to exhaust all my options. Godsend. Herb, the owner and operator, answered and delivered beyond my expectations. I came in with what I thought was a simple Christmas present and it evolved into an embroidery exploration event. I didn't realize how much I neglected my creative side because I kinda went crazy with all the details. Who knew embroidery was so complex? It's like building a decision tree. It was hella fun. (Literally got everything done today, got lucky with a cancelled appointment) The embroidery cost double the blanket, but I don't care ($80 if you're curious). The experience itself was worth it. I already have ideas for my own stuff that I want to do now. Now, everything isn't perfect, but they are minor flaws. The colors are limited to about 15-20 I want to say (main like 10)? Also, it might get costly and time consuming depending on the amount of effort you put into it. Initially, it was going to be like 20-30 minutes, ended up being an hour and a half lol. TLDR: 10/10, This has to be your #1 choice if you enjoy creative license, have some time to kill, like making stuff, need it quickly, enjoy the details and new experiences. read more

Had been looking for a place to embroider my team shirts for a reasonably price. Called "Embroidery To You" and spoke with the owner Herb, explained to him that I needed a specific color to match the shirt so he set up an appointment the next morning which was convenient for me and he was close by. I showed him my shirts and he was able to show me a color that was perfect for the shirts. Explained the process and took his time to make all the shirts look perfect. Totally happy with the job and his expertise. I will recommend his business to our director for future projects. Thanks Herb!! Dan read more

I was looking for a place that does embroidery and so I looked up a place that was close to my house. And embroidery to you popped up. I called and Herb pick up. Of the bat he was so helpful! He asked me what I wanted to do and he even told me step by step on how to get to him. So Herb works from his home in his garage. I know some people might think it's sketchy to going to someone's home. But believe me. Herb did not make it uncomfortable in any way. He was really nice about making sure he understands what I wanted. Originally I jus wanted to put a name but he asked me if I wanted to add anything else to it. At first I didn't want to but I changed my mind after. Why this matters is because on the phone he told me for what I wanted was $40 and even me changing my mind and wanted to add something extra he still kept the same price! The whole time being there he was so nice and very talkative. Very accommodating to everything I needed. And the way he talk I can tell he is very passionate about his work and he takes it serious! You do an amazing job Herb and you deserve all the 5 stars!! Thank you so much for helping me give my god daughter a wonderful blanket with amazing meaning! I definitely will refer you to everyone! And I will for sure come back to you when I need to. Thank you so much again for your awesome service! read more

I went to Herb to get my graduation stole embroidered as most of the embroidery shops in Berkeley had closed and I couldn't have been happier! He and I worked together to create a design that I loved. The whole process took under an hour! Herb was very friendly and accommodating with my requests and I was extremely pleased with the results. I will definitely be returning to Embroidery To You next time I need something embroidered. Herb has my highest recommendation. read more

I needed a few scrub tops embroidered for work in a short amount of time. Herb was professional, timely on the quote and an honest, upfront communicator throughout the process. He did a great job and I highly recommend him in case you need need any embroidery work done! read more

I needed two aprons of different sizes to have a name embroidered around the top. I was helped with immensely from the first phone call all the way until I left with my products. They look amazing and exactly what I needed. The process was very easy with the way he helped me and I would definitely look for more services with this shop. Also, he has amazing stories about his work and is definitely an interesting guy to talk to while the embroidery process takes place. read more

Herb is the man! Building genuine and meaningful relationships is the single most important aspect of my business. Herb made me feel like I was working with someone that could really help me bring my brand to life, and communicate what we are all about to the world. I can't tell you how valuable it is to me to work with people that ACTUALLY want to help you- AMAZING! I think we are all a bit conditioned into expecting the typical mediocre service and a apathetic attitude in the watered down services we receive in our day to day. I had a wonderful experience working with herb....I felt like everything was at our fingertips! He was able to bring his knowledge to the table in a REALLY meaningfully way that literally saved me tens of hours of drudgery! I literally went from went through a logo redesign, three test shirts and consultation all in the SAME DAY...with no appointment. I couldn't believe it haha (Give him a ring before dropping by, he's a popular guy) Did I mention he's like...really inexpensive! Seriously he was half the price of the first company I worked with that required a minimum order of 10! They were going to take 2 weeks to complete the job. Please support small businesses like this they are so valuable to our community and SO MUCH BETTER that these other big time outfits. Thank you Herb! read more

I just had 5 hats embroidered by Herb, and not only is his work stellar artistry, but Herb is a joy to work with. It took us just over 2 hours to do 5 hats with 3 different designs, and each of them was designed, test-run, and produced with care and attention to detail, and it was great to be part of the production process. Herb is an expert and cares so much about doing things right, AND also happens to be a talented musician (I learned all about his band XStatic). Don't even consider using a cheap/fast production house and spend the time with Herb to get your job done right. Couldn't recommend him more, and will be back with many more projects! (He also does screenprinting, mugs, all kinds of cool promo items). Thank you so much, Herb!! read more

Herb did a great job embroidering a fleece vest with our company logo. He was fast and explained each step. The final product looks great. Highly recommend! read more

I was working with Herb for a few days to make sure the logos I needed were correct. He decided that the font in the logos didn't look good and changed it which is why I was questioning it in the first place. I called him to talk through it at which point he told me he needed to cancel my appointment for the following day and that he was too busy as well as raise his voice to me about doing all this work without getting paid. At no time did he tell me he required pre-payment for anything. We had already agreed on me paying in cash when I came into his office - which turns out is in his home. So I would recommend going with a reputable, real business instead of working with someone who can't remain professional and cancels on you at the last minute. read more
