Before I begin let me start off by saying that this review is based solely upon my personal…read moreexperiences and my personal experiences alone, so without further explanation let's begin!. This is my second time visiting, I don't know why I didn't check in the last time, but I made sure I did this time. So I'm writing a review off of this visit and my last visit that was about 2-3 months ago!. Visit #1: I brought a pair of pants that were damaged because the original draw string started to tear and eventually it tore making it difficult to wear the pants without them falling down at my waist. I brought some string off of Amazon and I took them both to her( I apologize for not getting her name ) she is a great tailor and the sweetest lady you will meet in a business. Back to the review! I told her I wanted to replace the draw string and I gave her the new string. She asked me where I purchased the string from and I told her Amazon. She had my pants ready in a week!. I was happy to get them back, it was like I brought a new pair of pants!. Visit #2: I brought a pair of Levi's off their website, keep in mind I brought numerous pairs of pants and other stuff before off their website. But in particular all the pants / jeans were a great fit. So I assumed this pair would fit perfectly too. But I was wrong, for some reason the pants I recently ordered were weird fitting to me, kind of a wide straight fit, flare at the bottom and extremely long. There is no way I can wear a pair of pants that look different from the pants I normally wear. So yo make a long story short I took the pants back ti my favorite tailor and she had me try them on, stand on a platform and carefully asked me how much I wanted taken in and to how much to taper off, once I agreed to the areas I wanted tailored she pinned the areas. I changed back into my original pants I wore in the store, gave her the pants I want altered and she asked me if next week would be ok, I agreed!!!.. Let me tell you when I say her prices are jaw dropping cheap for the tailor work she puts in!. I will be returning and recommend you do if you're ever in a need of any type of tailor work or any alterations you may need!

Yes you will pay for an up charge on what's being done but that's more than reasonable when you ask a business for expedited services. I have come here multiple times and always leave satisfied.

I explained to the lady exactly what I wanted on my uniform suit jacket and even left her my old suit jacket for reference. I just wanted her to sow on patches on a new suit jacket for me. Paid extra for rush service and came out to be super over priced. When I came to pick up my jacket it was definitely not what I wanted which I tried to explain to her. This is where the lady's attitude went over the top, she refused to listen and proceeded to tell me about how experienced she was on these uniforms. She showed me her work on MALE Navy uniforms that were NO WHERE near the uniform I had brought in. Again, saying she wasn't wrong and that I was incorrect. And even then, if I wanted my patch upside down, it is still MY uniform and I wanted it a certain way which I explained to her when I dropped it off and again left a reference for her to look at. Then she says she can fix it for an additional $10, when that was HER mistake in the first place, this was already $60 for just two patches and a 4 day rush job. Decided to just leave it at that and go down the street to Valerie's, definitely much better priced, did a magnificent job and even faster turn around!
