SERVICE. I am a…read morerepeat customer of Leonardo's Tailoring in Costa Mesa. I needed some custom embroidery sewed onto some clothing. The placement of the embroidery had to be carefully sewn onto the clothing, using an identical color of sewing thread. When I arrived at the shop, I was greeted by Leo at the front counter. After seeing the clothing, Leo took the time to position the embroidery on the clothing. He told me the clothing would be ready for pick-up the following day. When I picked-up the clothing a day later, I noticed the embroidery needed some very minor adjustments. So Leo asked me to wait at the shop for a few minutes so he could complete the proper adjustments to the embroidery. Once again, service was very fast and all of the work was completed to my satisfaction. Great customer service! Everything looked fantastic! Thank you to Leo! 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 (see photos from my past review). It has a small parking lot in front of the tailoring shop. Parking is free. QUALITY AND VALUE. Outstanding value, fast customer service and very fair (cash) prices! Highly recommended!

From my experience, the key with Nam is communication, be clear about what you want, when you need it, and ask about the total cost upfront if you're unsure. Since he runs a one-man shop, he can get busy, but he always delivers quality work. I genuinely recommend him if you're looking for someone skilled and reliable.

I have…read morebrought Nam so many tailoring projects over the years and he has always executed them flawlessly and with a great attitude and smile. From having a men's suit jacket altered for a wedding, to hemming turtlenecks into custom cropped winter layers, to sewing straps on sundresses for better bust coverage, to even hemming a men's shearling jacket into a custom cropped winter a jacket--Nam can do it all! No matter the project, Nam has always matched his skills to the project for complete customer satisfaction. When the hem on my cropped turtlenecks was not exactly what I wanted, Nam re-hemmed them no problem. When I wasn't quite sure how I wanted to finish the shearling jacket, Nam painstakingly removed and readjusted the hem on the jacket to give it an elegant look. And when there was a miscommunication about when a suit jacket needed to be ready for pick up, Nam dropped what he was doing and stayed past closing to make sure that it would be ready before our flight. His prices are fair, the quality of his work is excellent and the service is impeccable. I have never been more enthusiastic to leave a well-deserved five star review!

(I found this place after a yelp search) I saw photos and reviews of future brides literally trusting this place with the most important clothing item in the world.. their wedding dress At my first visit, I brought in a Versace cape. it was on sale, except it was 3 sizes too big. I was a little nervous since this cape did have embroidery and heavy detail on the sides, so I knew it was going to be hard to do, but she said it wouldn't be a huge issue. But she did see it immediately and pointed out she could only take it in so much so it didn't ruin the embroidery pattern. She gave me a quote that was under 100 dollars (so, it was totally worth buying on sale even though I knew it was 3 sizes too big and would need altered) (she literally saved me thousands) She called me about 2-3 days later for pick up, and she knocked it out of the park I came back in for more alterations and I was immediately greeted by the owner,Kim, who is so warm and friendly. She's extremely honest about what CAN and CANNOT be done. And, gives you honest prices. She really aims to get the job done and up to everyone's standards to make sure everyone is happy. She's so professional yet so warm and friendly. I seriously love how talented, Kim is. I brought in a Gucci cardigan that had a little snag in it that was turning into a BIG snag. She was honest about the fact she couldn't do much. I told her it did not have to be perfect, I just did not want it getting worse. She actually called me same day and told me it was ready for pick up. The job she did was FLAWLESS! And she charged only 20 dollars Then, my third visit. I needed these items done. -light blue dress that needed taken in because it was a size too big -a sheer maxi dress that needed taken in all over and about 9 inches taken off the bottom -blazer style dress that needed taken in And a couple other items. However, I noticed the owner, Kim, who was there for 20 years had already moved. Please, spread the word. If you or anyone you know, needs some tailoring by highly qualified professional with tons of experience and family owned. I'm extremely sad this tailoring staple in OC has moved due to the rent almost doubling. They have been around for 20 years. She did say she would be doing some work from home and at other locations (fountain valley) -I'll definitely bring all my summer dresses that need fixed *their statement We have relocated to a private Fountain Valley studio!

Highly recommend Joy's Tailoring if you want quality work done by someone who truly cares.

Best pricing I have found in OC for hems! As a short girl with short legs, I frequently need to…read moreget pants hemmed. Where I live in South OC, most places charge at least $15 per hem, which really adds up. This place did it for $4.50, or $9 for the wide legs. Well worth the drive! I dropped off seven pairs and it was less than $40. The only thing I would have liked they gave me more clarity about was to let me know when I called that wide legs would be more. But I think that is pretty standard practice, so I wasn't too mad. This place is kind of hard to find because it is so small. My navigation was telling me that I had arrived and I wasn't seeing it until I saw the small sign next to the dentist office. It was unclear on whether or not we could park in the small lot between this place and the apartment buildings, so to play it safe if I parked across the street by the supermarket, which I really enjoyed visiting after. We don't have a lot of Mexican supermarkets in South OC where I live, so it was fun to pick up some things from there and made the drive out more worth it as well. Turnover time was great as well. I can't comment on more difficult or involved jobs because I didn't use them for that, but I highly recommend coming here for hems.
