Giovanni's is more expensive than other dry cleaners in my neighborhood that do a good job, but If I have a garment that needs special attention or requires alteration, Giovanni and seamstress Yamilette deliver above and beyond work. Garments that are altered and cleaned are returned i. clothing garment t bag, which is an added nice touch! read more

Very good service, clean and professional inside. But wowza it's pricey! I had a dress taken in about an inch the same day and it was $95. I was surprised by the price but glad I was able to get it done the same day. read more

Giovanni's Garment Care is a very exceptional and more than a 5 stars establishment. I have been to many and nothing comes close to the level of expertise and quality that my garments look like under Giovanni's care. Giovanni, who is the owner, is very talented, knowledgeable and approachable. He takes the time to speak with his customers and answer any questions they may have. The pride he takes with each garment shows with how he packages each item so carefully and neatly. He may be a little more pricey than other establishments but let me stress that you will never be disappointed and it's well worth it as he has fixed many garments that were ruined by other establishments. I highly recommend you try Giovanni's Garment Care and I assure you will come back again and again!! read more

I dropped off my wedding dress in January a week before my big day. I am so glad I did! Giovanni and his team did an incredible job steaming it and getting it ready. They made it look even better than when I purchased it. Giovanni was so kind and empathetic, understanding the stress and nerves prior to a big event. I will be returning and recommending to friends and family in the area. read more

They were amazing during an emergency that I had with my dress. I had a dress that got a stain on it, I needed to get the stain out within the hour. They were so accommodating and were able to get the stain out! I have used the for tailoring and some dry cleaning. I have always had a great experience. I highly recommend using them. read more

Giovanni's Garment Care was amazing in the care of my wedding dress, 4 bridesmaids dresses, my mom's cocktail dress and my dad and husband's suits for my wedding in September. Giovanni personally called me multiple times to make sure everything was in order. 3 of my bridesmaids dropped off their gowns, and Giovanni came to pick the rest up at my hotel, and promptly delivered them the following Friday before the wedding. I couldn't have asked for a better place to steam all of our garments before our big day got started. Would do it all over again in a heartbeat! read more

I cannot recommend Giovanni's Garment Care highly enough! My sister purchased a dress online for her Junior prom but had to order it two sizes up. The staff and Giovanni's truly went above and beyond to accommodate the adjustments. We went in on a Friday to drop off the dress and they had it ready for us on Tuesday. After picking up the dress on Tuesday, it didn't fit as expected but they not only promised to make the additional adjustments free of charge but also offered the convenience of having it ready by the next day! Their exceptional customer service and willingness to ensure complete satisfaction really impressed me and was truly commendable. I highly recommend their services for anyone looking for meticulous attention to detail and exceptional customer care. Thank you guys again for your outstanding service! read more

Giovanni's Garment Care gives fantastic service and they do an amazing job dry cleaning! I was devastated by hurricane Helene and Giovanni personally helped me with my badly damaged designer leather jackets. He went above and beyond for me. You just don't see service like this anymore. I would trust them to dry clean anything. I'd give them 10 stars if I could!!! read more

I didn't want to bring my designer gown just anywhere so I posted on Facebook for recommendations. Giovanni came highly recommended and now I know why! My dress looks like the day I took it home from Kleinfelds, it's perfect. I liked that I was able to come see it before it was boxed. Updating- I just used Giovanni again to clean and press an heirloom christening dress. He treated it so carefully and it came out beautiful! Go to Giovanni if you need a business you can trust! read more

Giovanni is a literal saint and the best in the business! I got married in Italy and my dress was dragged through grass, gravel, dirt, mud, etc., and it was an absolute wreck. I brought it to Giovanni to clean and preserve and he returned it to me absolutely SPOTLESS and looking brand new!!! I can't even believe how gorgeous it looks. He really takes his time and is worth every penny! The attached photos are from after cleaning but before preservation. Pics don't even do it justice. So thankful to have found him!!! read more

Amazing place! I dropped off 10 satin robes and shawls for my wedding and they all came out perfect! Not a single wrinkle at all! I've gotten my dress hemmed there too for other occasions as well as minor tears fixed in my clothing. Everyone there is super nice and reliable. Been a repeat customer for almost 2 years now! read more

Went here to get my wedding dress preserved. He did a great examination of the dress. My dress was extremely detailed so I didn't mind the $600+ cost. Its in a box looks beautiful.Im going to assume he did a great job I'm not opening the box and you don't get to see it before he puts it in the box which is a con. It would've been perfect if I was able to see the final product. read more

Giovanni is absolutely amazing!!!! I got married in Sedona Arizona and my dress was literally red from the red rock. It rained and got my dress covered in red clay. I did not think my dress was going to look the same but Giovanni took me by surprise and made my dress look brand new!!! He was so professional and really made me feel comfortable having him clean my dress. I highly recommend going here for any cleaning!!!! read more

First time here & definitely recommend. I had a jacket from lululemon & the the zipper had completely fallen off. I originally brought it back to lululemon & they sent me away with my zipperless jacket saying they couldn't do anything for me besides let me pick something of the same value to exchange for the jacket. I walked into Giovanni's after reading amazing reviews & they were literally able to put the zipper back within minutes; Thank you so much! read more

Giovanni's Garment Care - Sewing & Alterations Near Me - Merrick, New York

Giovanni's Garment Care, the best dry cleaners on Long Island period! This place is a complete knock out, when it comes to dry cleaning. I went to the most local place to my house I won't name it here. These people ripped off buttons, gave me the wrong clothes, and ruined perfectly good clothes! Now Giovanni, forget about it this guy is aces! My girlfriend brought him a ruined Hugo Boss pocket square. I'm literally never wore it. It was brand new but the last place I brought it too made my brand new very expensive white pocket square a pinkish red. Are you kidding me?! Giovanni tells my girlfriend don't worry about it, I'm going to see if I can fix it. If I can I'm not even going to charge you! That's serious I know what I'm doing and know how to get your business! Trust me, my girlfriend went to look at ever dry cleaners an this is the only place she would trust after that incident! If I knew how good Giovanni was we wouldn't have had to buy another pocket square at Hugo Boss for a lots of hard earned cash! This thing came out better than new, the people in Germany making these things can even make it look this good! Seriously spend the money and go to a real dry cleaner like Giovanni. He cares about you and your garments. My girlfriend went for me so I never met him or been there in person but I was handed the dry cleaning and that's all I needed to know this was my new spot! I had suits, dress shirts, jeans, slacks, casual shirts, pocket squares, and more all done to perfection here! All the buttons attached and colors right! I don't have to steam the clothes again when I get home like other places! He even said they'll pick it up or drive up and they'll come get it it if the car for you! That's real service, how are these other places in business still? Might have to partner with this guy and open another one haha All jokes aside and no I'm not an owner or getting paid for this everyone I don't even let businesses message me. Just understand how hard it is to earn money to buy nice clothes and pay to have someone ruin them. That's why I'm sincere when I tell you if you work hard to buy nice clothes try this place out you won't be disappointed in the quality way they take care of them that's all! read more

I highly recommend Giovanni's. After a bad experience at a previous cleaners near where I live I needed to find a new place. I remembered I had met Giovanni about 8 years prior. Even though I had to drive about 20 min to get there it was well worth the ride. Giovanni took care of my wedding tux and some other button downs with a ton of care and took me in as if I was a customer for years. True service here and I will continue to go back regardless of the longer commute. read more

Wow! This place is so nice inside & they do great work. I brought in a dress that needed some alteration and was blown away by the work they did. You cannot even tell that it's been altered. Definitely worth it. read more

Professionalism from the second you walk in to when you receive your clothes. Owner Giovanni and his friendly staff spent the necessary time taking proper measurements with me to ensure alterations would be done perfectly. Couldn't be happier with the services provided and this business is worth the drive from anywhere in Nassau. 5 stars all the way. read more

Brought a bridesmaid dress here to be altered based on the stellar reviews. Unfortunately I was left with a dress that was too long, too large on top and a broken hook & eye... All for $165. The cost of a hem + to have a dress taken in is outrageous. I've had a number of bridesmaid dresses/evening gowns altered and have never paid such a high price and been left with such a poor result. Overall a really disappointing experience. read more

I came here last week because I saw all the great reviews. I drove past several Cleaners to get here and it was definitely worth the miles. I dropped off a suit and a dress shirt and had it back 7 hours later and was looking sharp 9 hours later. Very friendly and clean place. The shirt I actually dropped off was a shirt that I picked up from another Cleaners that still had stains on it. They took care of everything at Giovanni's. I now have a new Cleaners. Great experience read more

I love Giovanni & his staff! They take great care of my clothes and the prices are very reasonable.

Went in needing a last minute alteration on my jumpsuit/romper and was immediately fitted and was able to pick up the next day! Definitely coming back for other services and was very impressed by the quality and care in my garment. read more

I showed up after they closed tonight (my own fault) and by some chance a gentleman, almost positive it was the owner, was outside and saw me go to the door. He immediately jumped out of his car and unlocked the store, turned everything back on, gave me the suit pants I had gotten tailored, and rang me up. Completely above and beyond, it's clear how much he cares about his business and customers. I've used Giovanni's a few times for tailoring and I've always been very happy with the outcome. Strongly recommend the business. Thank you again for the incredible service read more

"The customer is always right" was a phrase pioneered by Harry Gordon Selfridge, John Wanamaker and Marshall Field. All were successful retailers who knew their success depended on the happiness of their customers. This was the catchphrase that I knew from growing up as a child. Bear with me through this next little story. It was 1966 and I was at Macy's department store to buy my parents a gift for their 10th anniversary. Imagine a sales clerk, in the fine china section, no less, trailing calmly along after a nine year old with a whopping $10.00 to spend. Imagine that clerk accepting that $10.00 as payment in full for a $9.99 item AND gift wrapping it for free! Now obviously, that was not Macy's policy as much as her own compassion but it was part of the world that I knew back then. Come to the present day and imagine walking into a dry cleaning store where they have a dish of wrapped mints next to the cash register. They offer you an attractive, nice sized bag to transport your dry cleaning in, free of charge. They offer free pick up and drop off of your garments. There is a lovely paneled dressing room and they work with you whether you want to alter a gown, a pair of pajamas or a fleece blanket that you want to cut down into pieces for your elderly dog because you can't find the right size in that particular type of blanket. And, if it's not done to your satisfaction, they do it over. For free. Formal items, such as suits and gowns are packaged in covers that allow airflow so that you do not need to remove them like the plastic sheeting that you usually get from most dry cleaners. The gowns are wrapped over cardboard dress forms to help the item hold its shape. They even offer you a bottle of water on a hot day! And how often do you get someone to come out from behind the register to carry your large armful of pressed cleaning to your car? If Giovanni's Garment Care sold stock in their company, I would buy it. read more

Fast service, ready when promised, and suit looked better than new. I highly recommend.

I sent my daughter to this place because of the reviews which was great. My daughter needed a simple alteration on the side of her dress which was done but the price was over the top too much, we're talking about over a $100 too much for a simple side alteration. I feel really bad for sending my daughter here when my niece had the same exact alterations done at another dry cleaners for just $35.00. I would not recommend Giovanni's for alteration. read more

I got my wedding dress altered here and it was a very good experience. I was worried at first since it's my wedding dress but Oscar did a great job hemming my dress and made it fit me perfectly! The owner Giovanni was also great and shows he really cares for his customers. He even helped me put my dress in the car when I came to pick up! I would definitely recommend coming here read more

I brought 2 gowns here for alterations. The staff was very professional and friendly. The owner, Giovanni, came out to introduce himself to me and to discuss what I needed done on the gowns. He also introduced me to the tailor (whose name escapes me at the moment - sorry). I picked up my gowns over the weekend and was very happy with their work. They did an exceptional job on both gowns. One gown had a terrible smell which is gone (hooray) and it also had a stain along the bottom which is also gone! I asked the tailor to remove the sleeves from the other gown, and the work was so expertly done that you cannot even tell that it had sleeves to begin with! I would trust Giovianni's Garment Care with all my dry cleaning/alterations! I'd give 10 stars if I could. read more

I have lived in Merrick for over 20 yrs and have tried many dry cleaners in the area. None have the garment care or customer service that Giovanni's has. Giovanni can handle any garment or fabric issue that comes up. He has never disappointed me! Great service and care, what more can you ask for!!!!! read more

I was searching for a tailor/garment care location and I was intrigued by the reviews for Giovanni's. I had suits ruined by other tailors (with gross attitudes) who refused to own up to their mistakes or fix the clothes, so I was skeptical about trusting a new business. The staff at Giovanni's set me at ease the moment I walked through the door. I've had multiple items tailored at with precision at Giovanni's and the dry cleaning service quality is impeccable. The staff are professional and pleasant, and they actively LISTEN to customers. As other reviewers have stated, you get what you pay for at Giovanni's - high quality professional service! I wouldn't trust anyone else in the area with my clothes. True professionals who value customer service and satisfaction. Worth every penny. read more

I brought a bridesmaid dress in for my daughter 2 weeks before the wedding. Giovanni was courteous and professional. His tailor did a beautiful job, steamed the dress and had it ready with days to spare. I pinned the dress but Giovanni said it would be best for my daughter to come in because he wanted us to have the best results. His pricing was reasonable (not cheap), but better than the bridal shop and no appointment was necessary, although you should make sure the tailor is in. Another great yelp find! read more

This place is really top notch. From the service to the appearance of the place.... it's all five stars. I had a dilemma with my maid of honor dress and they handled it with ease and such professionalism. Glad I found this place and you will to! read more

Needed a new tailor and found Giovanni's through Yelp. I was hoping it would live up to the great reviews (I've tried a few businesses that haven't) but Giovanni's certainly did. I brought in a winter coat that had a zip on/off hood and the zipper was broken and needed to be replaced. I knew it was a big job to do and only an expert can make it look like nothing was done. Giovanni showed the coat to the tailor, gave me a price, and it was ready in 4 days. It was given back to me in a nice garment bag on a hanger and the sleeves were stuffed with paper, very classy. The work done was PERFECT. There is no way anyone would know that the zipper was replaced. Fabulous job and I will definitely be a repeat customer when I need tailoring again. read more

Really friendly and great service, fair pricing and they did a really great job. This was my first time here and I'll definitely be back. It really feels like they try and get to know you here and within minutes you feel like you've been going here your whole life. Really pleasant experience all around and probably the best dry cleaners on the island! read more

In my experience most dry cleaners are kind of dingy with subpar service and questionable quality. Not Giovannis. As soon as you walk in you can see and hear the difference. From the well kept and remarkably clean front desk area to the music you can tell the same attention to detail and quality will be brought to the cleaning and tailoring of your clothes. I've yet to have a bad experience whether I'm dry cleaning a shirt or getting a tux tailored. Couldn't recommend them more. read more

Professionalism and quality is what one can expect from Giovanni's. When I spill something on my clothes the rule is, don't do anything except bring it to Giovanni's the next day. I won't go anywhere else ever. I did once, and learned a lesson very quickly, the bitterness of poor quality work remains long after the sweetness of a low price is forgotten. I trust only his crew with my clothes and his tailor, Oscar (who is a surgeon with a pair or scissors and a sewing machine) with my alterations. Also not a bad idea to drop into Galleria for a slice or Soprano's for chicken wrap when dropping off clothes at Gio's. read more

It's great to finally find an honest cleaners. Giovanni's offers the best care for your clothing and when you have high quality clothes it's essential to find a dry cleaners that can keep them looking great for years to come, and that's what Giovanni's offers. The owner is so welcoming and an all around great business person. If there is ever an issue with the service they are willing to try again and if your are unhappy the service will be free of charge. But let me tell you I have never been unhappy. Overall Giovanni's is the best dry cleaning service I have found in many years, and if you are spending a lot of money on your clothes it makes sense to bring them to a high quality cleaners. read more

Needed a sport jackets sleeve taken in on short notice and they had it done the next day for me. They're professional and courteous. Will do business with again. read more

As a bride who was originally supposed to have their big Long Island wedding in November but unfortunately could not due to COVID, my husband and I had a small celebration with friends and family and plan to have our big celebration this year. I wore my wedding dress in November and ended up having a few stains from people stepping on the dress, drinks being spilled and grass stains from pictures. Giovanni was able to get them ALL out and made my dress look like new. I can't wait to wear it again this coming November knowing it will look amazing in pictures. It also was a piece of mind knowing Giovanni himself was doing the work and that they do not send the dress out to be taken care of. I will definitely be coming back at the end of the year to have the dress recleaned and preserved! read more

I went to a holiday party a few weeks ago. At the venue, they had candles. Someone accidentally hit one of the candles and before i knew it, i had candle wax all over my suit. That was the first time i wore the suit and i was very afraid that i was going to loose it. The following day, i went to 3 different dry cleaners including including the one that i had been going to for the past 10years. All of them told me that there was nothing they could do for me. I decided to open my Yelp app and found Giovanni Garment Care. When i got there, i was greeted by Giovanni himself. He was very polite and welcoming. He promised me that he would give me the suit back like it was brand new. He did exactly that and i couldn't be happier. Thank you again Giovanni! read more
