You walk into this "mall of stores", and right after you pass the side of Mrs. Ma, you'll find it. I believe the lady with curly-ish hair and glasses might be the owner or person in charge. She seems to be the one who does the measuring for customers, and I really appreciate how quick their service is. They definitely know what they're doing! I was nervous about bringing in my nicer denim at first, so I tested them out with a pair of corduroy pants. It was $15 for a regular pants hem. The second time I went back, I brought in four pairs of denim, and they were $25 each for the original hem. They came out perfect. The thread they chose was almost exactly the same color and you can only notice a slight difference if you really stare at it up close. I'll definitely keep coming back here. Please give them your business!

I found this place online, it is only 3 blocks away from the hotel, and it can get the job done urgently, so I went. I was pleasantly surprised. The place is perfect in each and every way. It is small, filled with machines and packed with garments, but the owner arranged the space so nicely it does not feel crowded at all, it actually feels vibrant and tranquil at the same time. The tiny space behind the curtain where I fit my pants is spotlessly clean and elegantly decorated. The owner is a lady with few words, but each word is on the point. Now the most important part, the job: I dropped my pants at 2 pm, and they are ready at 3 pm, as promised. They are exactly the length I asked for, with beautiful stitches, and for a very reasonable price. By the way, the lady is beautifully dressed, with perfect makeup, which gives me confidence of her taste. I live one hour away, and come to the city only occasionally for work, but I will start brining all my tailor work to the city to her.

So far I've brought in several trousers for alterations and they do such a professional and clean job on each one. I couldn't recommend anyone else if you're in the Union Square area. When you make it to the building they will need to buzz you in and they are located a quick elevator ride on the second level.

I had taken my prom dress back to Nordstrom twice for alterations to revive an old wardrobe item to wear for a wedding. They're my usual go-to spot because of free alterations associated with my Nordstrom Points account. The first time they didn't do the alteration as they were confused by my ask, the second time the manager took on my request but didn't tell me it was going to make my hem asymmetrical and look awful. Jenny was able to undo their work and get it back to looking normal, all while dealing with exceptionally delicate mesh/metallic fabric. I'm so glad to have found a local tailor that is within healing distance and can take on more challenging alterations that many tailors won't touch. I'm surprised some people say she doesn't speak great English, I had no challenges communicating with her and she understood every word I said no problem. Cash only, pay upon completion, and there isn't a reliable ATM nearby so make sure you come prepared during pickup!

A yelp search revealed nothing so I went to look for myself. I probably walked by this storefront two times before I finally saw the "Alterations" sign on the side of the entrance, half hidden by a stack of for sale items. The sign on front says "Discount Fabric" over the entrance. I walked in, saw the sewing machine and knew I had found it. I was greeted by the friendly store owner who peered at me over his glasses and jumped to attention when I told him I needed a pants hem. He spoke enough English to understand exactly what I wanted and let me know that my hidden hem would be more work than the standard and the pants would be ready the next day. In summary, I was extremely pleased with the work done on my pants for a more complicated hem, and only $8! I will definitely be back!
