I don't always agree with all of the Best Ofs in The Coast, but Daniel's Tailoring Shop is a…read morewell-deserved long-standing winner of the tailoring category. I'm actually a little bit shocked that it hadn't been reviewed yet when I dropped off a couple pairs of pants the other day! It's a small shop on the upper level of Park Lane Mall found from the main entrance by hopping on the escalators or stairs off to the right -it's in the main hallway. The head tailor here has been my go-to for alterations on any piece of clothing that I just can't have messed up. Typically, this means hemming pricy denims down to my Smurf-life height without having to worry about them coming back too long, too short, or looking like I hemmed them myself. For an extra cost ($20 rather than the normal $8 for a hem), they'll do a euro hem which makes the bottom of your jeans look professionally finished rather than just folded up and shortened. Definitely worth it if you've invested in a great pair to start with. Not only that, but the tailor actually cares about the work he's doing. He'll take your measurements as per usual, but he'll also ask about the shoes you wear, how you stand regularly, whether you like them to run long, etc. Even for a simple hemming, Daniel's makes sure that it's done to suit you specifically. On Saturdays, appointments can be made for consultations on more complicated jobs which I haven't done before, but I have witnessed the change in my friends' wardrobes after getting run through this shop. I can't wait to bring in some okay-fitting stuff and leave with perfection!

You can tell this store has been around a while, since it has the look and feel of a 60s mom 'n pop tailoring operation. Even though I wasn't around back then, you still get a sense of nostalgia when you walk in the door. They have a really cool huge collection of police cloth badges from all over the world, tacked up behind the front counter. You can easily spend a half hour just gawking at them trying to figure out where and when they're from. Nice way to pass the time while waiting for clothes. Service is fast, in a retirement home kind of way but it's all par for the course.

Save yourself a lot of…read moreaggravation, stress, time, and money and find another tailor other than Alter Ego Tailors (Mr. Daniel Royale). Due to tight timelines, I bought my wedding dress off the rack. It was a size 10, but I'm a size 2. The boutique gave me a 'recommended list of wedding dress specialist tailors', and I opted to make an appointment with Alter Ego Tailoring (Daniel Royale) as it was located near my office in downtown Halifax. His shop is located on the backside of the Doyle building directly across the street from the new library on Spring Garden Road. From the beginning, I did not get a good feeling about the shop/tailor. I should have listened to my gut and left with my dress after the initial consultation. Mr. Royale promised a lot but didn't deliver. In my opinion, he was unfocussed, distracted, didn't listen, and seemed to be perpetually rushed/in a hurry. I'm not sure if the issue is lack of skill, lack of attention to detail, not listening, not taking notes, or taking on too many clients, but I suspect it's a combination of all those things. In a nutshell, he basically butchered my dress. My dress required a lot of work to make it fit properly and make it the way I wanted. Mr. Royale assured me he was up to the task but fell well short of the mark. After multiple appointments and alterations, I ended up paying almost three hundred dollars for an ill-fitting, too long dress (among several other issues) that I was sadly not looking forward to wearing on my wedding day. Mr. Royale only accepts cash and gave me a generic receipt that did not bear the name of his shop; a practice that to me, seems rather sketchy. What reputable business these days doesn't accept debit/credit? Why wouldn't you want the name of your business to appear on the receipts you issue to customers? I can't help but wonder what Revenue Canada thinks of this practice. After my disastrous experience with Alter Ego Tailors (Daniel Royale), I took my dress to another tailor and spent $225 to have my gown properly altered, fitted and fixed. Lesson learned (unfortunately) the hard way.

Sana is the lovely proprietress, and she greets everyone with a smile and can-do attitude. I have had multiple pairs of jeans hemmed here, and zippers replaced on items from skirts to my favourite wool winter jacket. Sana will put a rush on anything you need if necessary, though I have never needed anything quickly. She is capable and pleasant to deal with. Replacing a small zipper will run you around $8-10 and having some small alterations done will likely be around $10-$20. You can ask at the time if you're concerned about cost, though I have always found it to be very reasonable and much better than messing it up myself! You can also pay when you drop your items off or when you pick them up. There's a curtained off dressing room if you need to put on trousers before hemming or get advice on other alterations. I highly recommend this place as it's efficient and inexpensive!

The man working was very professional and I was able to try on my pants in a little changing room so he could pin the correct length. The quality of the work done was great. The only reason I'm only giving 4 stars out of 5 is that I was told my pants would be finished two days later by 11am (I said I could pick them up in two days before noon, or I could get them the following week as there was no rush). I arrived to pick them up at 11:35am while on my way to work, and I ended up having to wait 5 minutes while he finished one of my pants in front of me. It wasn't a big deal, but if I I had come at 11am when he said they would be done then I would have waited 40 minutes or I would have had to come back to get my pants on another day. I would recommend this tailor, but I would suggest giving them more time to finish your items, even if they sound confident that they will have it done in a couple of days.
