He initially quoted me Friday and then changed it to Saturday due to the holiday. I showed up and panicked when I didn't see my shoes. I handed him the ticket and then he started looking and apologized and said he wasn't able to get to it but asked if I could come back in two hours. I said no, because when I dropped them off Wednesday, I specifically told him I was leaving Sunday. Additionally, I'm going to the game today that starts at 4 (he closes at 6) and I'm leaving tomorrow. If you can't fulfill the job, don't agree to do it. If I had agreed to let him do it and come back in a couple hours, I know it would have been a rush job and everything he would have done would have come undone.

Need to fix a jammed zipper on my Sorel boots. After checking out a few options on Yelp, I noticed…read morethere were a couple of repair shops conveniently located next to each other. Ultimately, I decided to give Gavriel's shop a try based on the positive reviews. I was pleasantly surprised by Gavriel's reasonable pricing and, more importantly, the quality of his work. If you ever find yourself in need of shoe repairs, this is definitely the place to go. Gavriel, the owner, is not only skilled at what he does but also incredibly friendly. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend his shop to anyone in need of shoe repairs. Finding the shop might be a bit tricky, so here's a tip: head inside the mall, go down one flight of stairs, and you'll find Gavriel's shop right there.

It's a small one man operation here. The transaction took 3 minutes. Gave me a price of $18 to put…read morenew soles on my sandals (front part of shoes). Told me to come back tomorrow. I paid in full - no receipt given and he didn't ask for my name or phone number. LOL. I said, will you remember me? He said yes. I went back 2 days later and he asked me which ones were my shoes (haha!!) and I had to point to my bag. However, for $18 you can't go wrong.

Workmanship 0 : I wouldn't get my Louboutins soles repaired…read morehere. I specifically asked to do red sole. He said yes and when I came to pick them up. My $800 pumps looks like $20 fake piece of shit with the ugliest looking black rubber role on the red sole. I wish he asked me b4 ruining my favorite shoes or not did anything. He said he was going to but couldn't find my number and instead went ahead and placed a black rubber sole despite my request not to. It is visible from the back. Price 0: He charges a lot for cheap jobs. He charged me $220 for a few pairs of shoe repairs and none of them were cleaned. He charged $35 to make designer shoes look like fake. Doesn't even look fixable. Essentially lost a few thousand dollars. Service 0 Mr Lin lacks intelligence why people would get their shoes fixed for $35 a pair. Can't comprehend that he should call customers before putting on a black sole when I specifically told him not to put on a black sole on top of the red soles. I wanted to give better rating because Mr. Lin seems like a nice person but his workmanship is poor. Who repairs cheap shoes these days? It is cheaper to buy another pair of cheap shoes. Most people get their shoes repaired if it is worth fixing. He made my designer shoes worth-less. If you have a cheap shoes that has sentimental values, might be ok to go get them repaired by him. If you have anything that's more than $200, don't come here. One of the worst shoe repairs. Go elsewhere.

I've known him for over 18yrs. A bit pricey but he gets the job done. He's quite meticulous and i…read morecan count on him when it comes to shoe/bag repairs

I totally agree with Elaine about the owner. He is rude and just terrible with customers…read more I needed to fix the heels for a pair of my boots and I thought it would be an easy thing to get done in Flushing. I saw the sign for this place and went in. You need to speak Mandarin to get any service here, but honestly, don't even bother coming. The owner is a major asshole. He didn't seem to want to help me at all. I asked him if he could repair my heels and he said he couldn't get to it today and I would have to leave it for a few days. I then asked if they could be ready tomorrow and he said no. So then I asked if they could be ready by Thursday (Thanksgiving) and he said that is an American holiday and he didn't know if he would be open, and that his wife would make that decision. So basically, he couldn't tell me when the heels would be repaired. He didn't seem interested in helping at all. I told him there was a Mr. Lin down the street that could repair shoes within half an hour and he said, "well go there." This guy was rude, unhelpful and didn't seem like he cared to make any business. I advise not going here to get your shoes fixed, go to Lin's shoe repair and without the hassle.

Update time! After the initial confrontation, he told me to come a day later and promised it would…read morebe ready. LO AND BEHOLD - LIES. I demanded a refund and he cracks telling me it would be ready in 15 minutes. Then tells me he hasn't even had lunch yet...trying to get sympathy out of me? Sounds like a personal problem dude. I don't give a shit. So after waiting half an hour (not 15 minutes) he shows me that he has polished the tips of my boots.... like he DID ME A FAVOR, I didn't ask for it and realized that in different lighting the black ink used was different from my boot color. Yup still hate this place.

The Ferragamos had a damaged heel and some cosmetic scuffs in the black leather, while the McQueens looked fine on the surface but had soles so worn down that water seeped in whenever it rained. Romy managed to fix both pairs so they look and function like new. I'm thrilled to have my two favorite boots back. It was absolutely worth the money: he repaired both of my shoes, which retail for several hundred dollars, at just a fraction of what it would have cost me to replace them new. And all within 24 hours! I came on a Thursday afternoon and he had them ready for me Friday morning :) I will be back!
