Service, Service, Service! It was an absolute pleasure working with Greg. We rented tuxedos from him for a wedding and the material was high quality. Greg's attention to fit and overall service was impeccable from start to finish. While not the closest tailor to me, it was well worth it and this will be my go to shop for future service. read more

Top notch work and wonderful service. Thank you very much, Greg, for transforming some hand-me-down suits into the best-fitting and best-looking clothing I own! read more

Greg is the best in the business. The Yale Spizzwinks, Yale Glee Club, and many other storied Yale organization rely on Greg to tailor custom tuxedos for their members. His fast turnaround times and eye for detail are exceptional. He is generous, patient, and communicative. As business manager for the Spizzwinks, I wholeheartedly endorse Greg and the work he does. read more

Greg's tailoring is up there-finesse. You gotta check him out for from tailor alterations to full-up suits. He is so friendly and professional, making his shop a no-brainer choice for tailor services. read more

I can't say enough good things about Greg. He so kindly helped me with an emergency bridesmaid dress alteration when my family evacuated Asheville, NC after hurricane Helene. I only had 48 hours in town and he did beautiful work and my dress fit like a glove. Great work at a great price and a wonderful owner. Go see Greg for all your alteration needs!! read more

Best Tailor shop in the CT area! Mr. Gregg is a nice man who makes sure the customer is 100% satisfied!

This place is absolutely great. Friendly people, friendly owner's, incredibly professional and they know exactly what they're doing. A great place to bring your clothes for alterations and a perfect place to get measurements. read more

I needed a repair to a vintage coat I thrifted and I'm so glad I came here. Greg is super friendly and professional and the coat was ready to collect surprisingly fast at a very reasonable price. Will certainly be back for more alterations! read more

I've used Greg's Tailor Shop several times over the years, for hemming pants and patching damaged clothing. For these services, his prices have been very reasonable, and I've been extremely pleased with the results. (When I needed suit measurements, he said I could just name a price, which was quite generous). At least for all the services I've tried, I recommend him very highly! He's very kind, and I'm very grateful for his help (tailors I've tried in other cities haven't been able to stack up). This is a great place, thank you Greg! (My only additional note is to perhaps give a quick call before you head over. The hours are occasionally irregular and you don't want to inconvenience yourself by coming by when he's not there). read more

I truly can't say enough about Greg's Tailor Shop and Greg himself. I am a comedian and had an urgent request for a tuxedo for a gig. I made a last minute appointment and Greg could not have been more accommodating. Within minutes he had a tuxedo ready for me with everything included. He told me to come back just a few hours later and by the end of that same day I had a perfect fitted tuxedo with all the fixings. It honestly was so seamless and he handled everything so professionally that I was blown away. From now on, I'm only going there for suits, tuxedos, or anything else. World class treatment and professionalism. 5 stars. read more

Greg, oh, wonderful Greg! I came to Greg's with a sweater and a blouse. The sweater: I'd taken scissors to the sleeves. The blouse: The sleeves hung 1 foot past my fingertips. "Are you able to fix this?" I asked him. Both desperation and optimism were present in my tone. From there, shall we say, smooth sailing. I tried on the garments. We discussed a game plan. And I left the man to work. Cut to: my garments hang in my closet now. And they are gorgeous. Thank you. read more

On record I have been shopping with Greg for about 5 years now. While he may not be perfect he takes amazing levels of pride in follow-up customer support. Bought a number of shirts, vests, and suits here and whenever I needed a resize (that gym life) he would do it very cheaply or for free. To the people complaining about his fees on fixing clothes you bought elsewhere...uh yeah...was he supposed to refit something another merchant made money on for free for you?...and I see most of you are Cali brats anyways.... Welcome to CT. Where the homeless population isn't large enough to warrant it's own county. Also brief note: the College Street location is as of recently permanently closed. read more

Greg was very helpful in getting my measurements taken for a suit. He was very courteous, congenial and prompt with the appointment and execution of the project. I will definitely recommend to every one who needs a suit or apparel made. read more

I went to Greg for measurements for a custom dress I was having made. He was very professional and took exquisite and precise measurements. I would recommend him to anyone. read more

Had some slacks hemmed and taken in. The work was excellent. The pants look flawless. Very happy with the work. ~3 week turnaround, around $100 for 3x hemming and waist taken in. Greg himself is a friendly and helpful guy who wants to help you fit in your clothes. read more

Greg altered my intricately beaded wedding dress and did a beautiful job. Because of the construction of the dress, Greg had to sew everything by hand and the dress fit like a glove- I couldn't be happier! He was professional and very responsive. Highly recommend to those looking for quality craftsmanship. read more

I highly recommend Greg. I went jn for measurements for a suit and he was very professional, funny, and nice.

This man is an artist. I came in to get a couple jeans hemmed and I also had a dress with a tear in the back -- multiple tailors had told me the dress wouldn't be possible to fix invisibly and Greg cautioned the same. When I came to pick it up I couldn't even tell where the tear had been. Greg was excited to share how he had strategically used the pattern to overlay the spot so it was totally invisible -- ingenious! Clearly a man who takes a lot of pride in his work and for good reason. Very fair prices -- highly recommend. read more

Found this tailor trying to look for a place close to my job to alter a bridesmaid dress! The owner was super nice and accommodating. I had ordered a dress off Azazie and ordered the top a tiny bit too big! When I told him the date of the wedding was in August, he was done in two weeks and it fit me like a glove. He also hemmed the bottom and was reasonably priced. I have another wedding I'm in in October and I will definitely be back here if needed! read more

I've brought everything to Greg from simple hemming to altering dresses of my mothers from the 70s to fit me! He is very kind and always does a wonderful job. He is my go to tailor in act. read more

I needed some detailed measurements done for a seamstress in another state who was making a dress for me and I searched for a tailor shop in my area. Came across Greg's shop and went in and asked if he could take a list of measurements for me. He was so kind and patient and did it for me free of charge. read more

Greg is very friendly and professional, prices are good, excellent attention to detail and he always makes sure that you look the best. I will keep using his services.....Thank you Greg!!! read more

I've called 5 different times to make an appointment to get a bridesmaids dress hemmed for a wedding in late August. The first time I called in June he said it was too early and wouldn't book me for an appointment and just told me to call back. Then called once a week for the first three weeks of July and they didn't even pick up the phone. I called on 7/24 Monday and asked if I could bring it in this week. He told me that Thursday would work (he literally said there's plenty of time before the wedding and whatever I need he can get it done) but didn't officially book me for an appointment. I called Thursday morning to confirm that I can still bring the dress and he said that it's way too late and they don't have time. He has been stringing me along for 6 weeks and now says he can't do the job that he assured me would be no problem. If he had told me there was an issue early on I could've made an appointment somewhere else. This is so highly unprofessional, I can't believe a business would treat customers like this. It is absolutely ridiculous. read more

I needed a dress altered for a prom (yes, occasionally deranged 23-year-olds go to proms) and was happy to find Greg's right across the street from where I live. The shop is clean and well-ordered, with open space with a big mirrored wall leading to a sort of desk partition in the back, behind which you can see all the clothes awaiting pick-up and alteration hanging neatly in plastic bags. The set-up inspires confidence - your garment will be safe at this garment hotel. The ops are small, and I'm fairly certain I was dealing with Greg himself, a quietly friendly grey-haired man. He asked what I wanted fixed and had me try on the dress in the little mirrorless private dressing room. I pointed out what I needed taken in and he did his thing with safety pins and all that jazz, explaining before I committed the limitations of what he could do given the make of the dress. I came back a few days later and he had it ready to go, ready to wear. He asked if I wanted to try it on again to make sure it was right, but I was lazy and walked out. The job cost $30. It turned out that it wasn't quite perfect, as the hem in the back was shortened to questionable levels with the alteration, and there was a little more slack than I wanted in the lapels (dresses have lapels sometimes, sure), but I have no doubt that he did what he could have, and that if I'd taken it back he would've fixed any nitpicks I voiced. Overall, Greg's isn't an amazing tailor shop, but they do a decent job and are very decent about it. read more

Highly recommend anyone to Greg he's super sweet very fast! I know exactly where to go if I need anything else done. Thank you

The prices here are absolutely absurd - see other reviews for more proof. I was charged $45 for a 1-inch hem on the sleeves of a $200 suit jacket with non-functional sleeve buttons. You could reasonably have the same thing done by a tailor in New York City for $20-$30, but somehow the owner of this podunk little shop has the audacity to charge $45. Avoid this place. read more

The shop isn't at this address anymore, but you should still call the number! Greg hemmed my bridesmaid dress in less than a week, and it had multiple layers. He did a great job and is such a nice person!! I went to his house in Hamden to get it done, and it was really easy! read more

I came in just needing to get my measurements taken - Greg was super accommodating and professional, quickly finishing the job in under 5 minutes. I'll be back if I need anything made or tailored! read more

Incredible service! Have been a long time customer of the store and have always appreciated the tailors positive attitude and willingness to help out with any issues that might arise. read more

Greg is by far the best around! I'm happy to have found him after trying my luck with other local tailors. He blows the completion away. Pricing and quality can't be beat. I've done my fair share of shopping during the past couple of months of quarantine and have made weekly trips to Greg for alterations on pants, suits and shirts. He has consistently gone above my expectations. read more

Wonderful service! I had to take in a long formal dress, and Greg did an excellent job in a short amount of time, even though he had many other orders. He is also nice and professional. Taking in a dress can sometimes be a pain, but he made it an all-around great experience. read more

Absolutely ridiculous. Avoid this place like the plague. I'll hit the important points: - Shop was locked at 9:45 AM even though the piece of paper (literally) on the door says they open at 9:30AM. I had to come back when they finally opened at 10AM. - Upon entering the shop, Greg's wife told me to wait for 10 minutes before asking what I needed - I asked for simple adjustments on a new blazer (sleeves shortened 1 inch, take in waist) and was quoted $80 price. I've had entire suits tailored for that price - When I politely declined and turned to leave she offered to do just the sleeves for $45. - I expressed I didn't see the point of going to a tailor just to have half the work done and was disappointed they kept me waiting for so long when I specifically went early in the morning to drop it off - Next, the lady launched into a angry rant/lecture about how people are late to work and asked "have you never been late to work?" - I told her I work at the hospital and when I'm late I'm in danger of getting fired - She then became even more fired up and sarcastically called me "perfect" and repeatedly told me I better hope nothing ever goes bad in my life to cause me to be late - I tried to diffuse the situation but she just raised her voice to shout over me and kept telling me to knock on wood so nothing bad happens and I won't have to be late - Greg the tailor himself even stepped in to try to diffuse the situation but the lady just wouldn't stop shouting aggressive threats - I turned and walked out after wasting 20 minutes of my morning and getting screamed at Was a HORRIBLE experience. Completely unprofessional. read more

TERRIBLE. I took several items of clothing here for alternations -- a couple of shirts and a pair of pants -- before finally giving up. Greg does terrible work. Really, really terrible. I had a bad feeling right off the bat, when Greg did a obviously sloppy job pinning up my shirts in the way i wanted them altered. Then, when they were done, of course they fit me badly. He doesn't really seem to care if he makes people's clothes fit badly, and he basically ruined two of my shirts. And charged me for ruining them. I assume he makes most of his money renting crappy tuxedos to high school and college kids, because his work as a tailor is just awful DO NOT take any clothes here for any kind of alternation, except maybe to get a pair of jeans hemmed. read more

I think people only go here because New Haven has very limited options. For the past couple years, I wasn't going to Greg and was taking my stuff to nyc where they consistently did amazing work and charged very reasonable prices. Not only does Greg charge way too much, but the work is poor. He's ok for simple things if you don't mind paying a lot, but for anything else (even a rip in jeans), anywhere else would be better. read more

I needed a tuxedo at the last minute. I mean the VERY LAST MINUTE. I was catching a flight for a work event later that night and had totally forgotten that it was a strictly black-tie event. The shop was set to close in about an hour. I rushed in expecting that I would get turned away as I was at other shops. Instead, the tailors were very attentive and calm. They took all of my measurements and made alterations. I was pretty nervous because the shop was set to close. The owner told me to go and have lunch while they got the order ready. They called me to pick up the tux at 2 pm even though the shop had already closed at 1 pm. The tuxedo fit me very well, but I was even more impressed by the professionalism and the willingness to go above and beyond the call of duty on a Saturday for a last-minute request. I can't thank the staff enough for helping me avoid a disaster. read more

I rented a tux from Greg's for Yale Senior Masquerade and in the process made a new friend. Greg is a down-to-earth person who cares deeply about providing his customers with a great experience at his shop. We talked about his family, his hometown in Greece, and his journey to opening up his own shop in downtown New Haven. Not to mention, his shop is equipped with the latest in tuxedo and dress-wear. I arrived at his doors needing a tux to make my night one to remember and walked away not just with great memories but with an unlikely friend. Thank you, Greg, for everything you do! read more

To be honest, options in New Haven are limited. I went there with my boyfriend to rent a tux for a formal event. I was at first worried about the quality of the place after reading some negative reviews. To my surprise, Greg was friendly and very helpful. He took the measurements and made some adjustments to the suit. We picked up the suit and shoes the next day without any problem. If you are looking for tux rental, at least give this place a try, especially if you don't want to drive out of town. read more

I came in to get my measurements taken and Greg was kind, professional, and helpful. He was in the middle of helping another customer when I entered and attended to him while I sat comfortably for a short time. After the other customer left (happily, it seemed), he turned to me and courteously took my measurements with a piece of tape. Took four or five minutes, and my dress (bought elsewhere) fit perfectly. I recommend Greg's service! read more

I enjoyed my experience at Greg's. I had to take in new trousers and he and his wife took time for me to get it right. In fact, two days later I changed my mind and wanted them even a bit shorter; when I went back he did it with the same care and this time at no cost. He also put on a new button on my coat for next to nothing. read more
