SERVICE. When I walked through the front door of Leonardo's Tailor Shop, I was greeted by a friendly gentleman at the front counter who asked me what type of tailoring service I wanted them to do for me. I told him I needed a tailor to sew some custom embroidery onto some clothing. Then I showed him the clothing plus the embroidery. The placement of the embroidery had to be measured precisely in terms of fractional inches and then carefully sewn onto the clothing, using an identical color of sewing thread. After listening to my sewing request and seeing the clothing, the tailor used a tape measure to position the embroidery perfectly on the clothing. Service was very fast and all of the sewing work was completed on the same day. When I returned to retrieve the clothing, everything looked fantastic! LOCATION. Leonardo's Tailor Shop is located in a street level business strip at the corner of Baker Street and Enterprise Street in Costa Mesa. It has a very small parking lot in front of the tailoring shop. Parking is free. QUALITY AND VALUE. Outstanding value, fast service and very fair prices! read more

This shop has increased the value and wearability of my wardrobe ten-fold. I highly recommend their service. I have been several times to bring by different types of pieces. Every time was fast, quality service with good prices. They altered pants, dresses, and other formal and casual-wear for me. One especially incredible change was changing cowl-neck dresses to a different neckline. Loved the results! Each time I tried the pieces on before I left, and I was so happy leaving the business every time. See you soon! read more

First time coming here and they were great! I had him hem 2 long formal dresses and take in a romper. He gave me a very fair price and. It was Thursday afternoon, I asked if I could have them in 2 days, and we agreed on Saturday at noon. I showed up around 1230 and they remembered me right away and had everything ready! The alterations looked exactly like I hoped. Hopefully, this will be my new regular tailor shop! read more

Rafael at Leonardo's was extremely helpful, did great work and provided a fast and quality service. I'll keep bringing my business here's thank you! He quickly fixed a ripped cashmere hoodie on the spot and got me out in less than 5 minutes. I'm so grateful, thank you! read more

Great every time all the time. Always happy to support local business and work with great people with great quality work.

Leonardo does beautiful work and is extremely fast. He has become my go-to for alterations.

Great service and great and fast work! This is a nice family run business I will definitely be back.

Great staff. Quick! Well done. I had original hem done for my new pair of jeans and they did a great job in pretty much 24 hours. I'll be back when i get my next pair of jeans, pants. Highly recommended. read more

This place is great! I had to do an original hem on a pair of expensive jeans and the gentlemen was able to accommodate me with a very quick turnaround. The way he measures your pants is unlike anything I've experienced. Rathing than folding the pants from the bottom, he folds it from the shin and you're able to see how the hem rests on your shoes. It's very accurate and I am very pleased with the results. I will be only doing my tailoring here from now on. read more

The service is Friendly, and there was a relatively short turn around. Prices were comparatively expensive for the area.

First time customer, and they'll have all my business moving forward! I have three items altered (low rise jeans, Burberry blouse, and a Zara dress), all items were perfectly altered. They are very polite and accommodating on short deadlines. Their work is very seamless and always form fitting for me. Shoutout Rafael for all the help! read more

It's becoming increasingly difficult to find businesses with exceptional customer service and this place did not disappoint. So thankful for yelp that I came across this Taylor shop which is conveniently located. One thing to know is they only accept cash or check but the prices are extremely affordable and reliable. I had the seam of some pants start to burst open and within five minutes he had it stitched up perfectly. I'm recommending the spot to all my friends and will definitely be back thank you so much. read more

I have been going to Leo for years and his work is always on point. He has my items ready as promised, always willing to make adjustments if needed and his prices are fair. I highly recommend his work. read more

I have been going here for over 5 years now, this review is long overdue but I'm not typically one to leave yelp review unless I really appreciate their service. As a 5' tall woman I cannot live without a good tailor! Having lived in many cities due to my previous job, I've also consequently seen at least 30 different tailors with varied skillsets and pricing. When I settled as a Costa Mesa resident in 2017 I found Leonardo's and have taken every item to this shop since! I know a good value. Their work is flawless and price is SUPER reasonable. Fast turn around time (even last minute but don't abuse it) and always with a smile. Even have them hem shirts, rain jackets, etc for my fat pug who doesn't fit items off the rack Yes, I'm embarrassed to admit this as I fully recognized it's too much but had to give context to the picture attached to this review as this was an XL from Amazon that was altered to fit my 'husky medium' boy with an XL chest read more

Leo has saved me from a fashion fiasco at least 20+ times. He knows what he's doing. I have a small frame and sometimes I love an outfit that isn't made for petites and I just bring it straight to him because he understands how to alter it in a way that looks like it was made for me. Can't say enough great things about this business. Thank you Leo and Antonio! read more

Stopped by to get the sleeves on a dress shirt taken in and some pants hemmed. Both were pricey items so I was willing to drive all the way up from San Juan to get these done at a well reviewed tailor. Leonardo's didn't disappoint and the work they did was excellent and reasonably priced. I was so pleased that I dropped off a coat to have tailored when I picked up my items. This will be my new go to tailor after being disappointed with pricing and timing at tailors more local to me. read more

Handled a last minute need within a hour. Highly recommend. Excellent customer service

Leonardo's Tailor Shop did an incredible job altering my daughter's dress for prom! No appointment necessary, prompt friendly service and quick turnaround time. The dress required some alterations involving beadwork and they did an amazing job. It fits her so well! Also had 2 pairs jeans hemmed while we were there, and I love that they create original hems so they look like they came that way. This will definitely be my go to for all alterations in the future!! read more

Excellent work on several of my clothing items that needed repairing. Very helpful and explained the cost upfront. Went back a week later, and not only was my order ready, the clothing was also pressed and neatly hung on a hanger. Price was very reasonable. I will definitely be back again if I need any tailoring or clothing repairs. read more

The best Tailor in Town! Truly professional & very great people! Leo is the best! 10 Stars

I usually have my own Taylor that I use and he was closed the day that I needed urgent help. I looked for an alteration shop with good reviews and Leos shot came up. We spoke on the phone and he invited me in for an urgent alteration project for five pairs of pants. He was so nice and so quick! He was able to return my alterations within a couple of days and they're great! I would definitely use Leo again. Very nice, talented, and professional owner. read more

The best service ever Open on Sunday. It only took him 10 minutes This is unbelievable read more
