Came here to get a dress altered and overall the actual alteration work was done well. I needed the…read moredress taken in slightly around the bust and waist area and it cost me $90. The dress fit perfectly afterward and they completed it within a week, earlier than the pickup date I had asked for. The main issue for me was the organization during pickup. I received a text saying my dress was ready, but when I arrived they brought out a completely different piece of clothing even after I clearly described my dress. Turns out they had mixed up the name tags between my dress and someone else's. I ended up going to the back with them and immediately spotted my dress myself. I pointed it out and they asked if I was sure it was mine, which was a little strange. Then they asked me to try it on. At first I thought they just wanted to confirm the alterations looked right, but it turned out they wanted to see if it fit me to determine whether it was actually my dress. Thankfully it fit like a glove. Even after that, they still seemed unsure so I showed Yelp messages I had previously sent with photos of the dress, along with my receipt and even how much I paid. I usually throw receipts away, so thank goodness I still had it. After confirming in multiple different ways, they finally let me take my dress home. Another woman was also there picking up clothing after receiving a text notification and they were struggling to locate her item too, so it didn't seem like an isolated issue. Overall, I think the tailoring work itself is solid, but the shop felt pretty disorganized. The guy working there did apologize before I left, which I appreciated, but the whole process of having to repeatedly prove the dress was mine was definitely frustrating.

I used to be a long-term customer at Frank's but I believe the ownership has changed hands and I…read morenever see those master tailors there anymore so I decided to try Ike's. I took in two pair of jeans (one brand-new, one vintage) for alteration. The new pair just needed to be hemmed. I specified ORIGINAL HEM. They weren't embellished and didn't have difficult seams or finishes and they charged me $75 to hem and the original hem wasn't applied. I called them twice while I was waiting for them to be done (I wanted to remind them, because it was prom season and they were busy). the woman on the phone said "We always do original hem" but I didn't get original hem back and now the jeans look cheaply made (the hem is also crooked). The other pair is a vintage pair of Calvin Klein jeans that I bough a size too large so they could be tailored to my body. They charged me $100 for those, which also seemed steep but I paid it. When I went to pick them up, it's like no one had actually touched the jeans. I tried them on again for them to correct it and was specific when the attendant was pinning them. I still don't think they were done, because now it looks like I have saddlebags because they were never taken in on the hips where I showed. I have now paid almost $200 for two pair of jeans to be altered that weren't what asked for; getting it fixed at another tailor will mean even more money spent. I will continue my search in Chicago for someone who can make basic alterations to clothing. Not removing/adjusting seams or dealing with challenging fabric-just 100% cotton fabric. with basic hem or just taking inches in along the side seams. Basic tailoring shouldn't cost so much or be this hard.

I know they have to keep their doors open. I just was truly shocked. I am also just not satisfied with the end product? And yes I could have asked for adjustments but I did not have time. These items were needed for an event. I also looked online and it said 3 weeks would be a sufficient amount of time to have what I needed done. And I felt like I was treated pretty coldly when I first came in when I told them I needed the item by a certain date. Told I was "cutting it close". I don't know. Again I really do understand and I'm glad this place exists. I just will not be returning. Especially for smaller Items.

This place doesn't want business. The lady attending the front is always making excuses for why she…read morecan't fix this or that. For example, I dropped off a pillow that the zipper needed fixing and the guy said no problem, they'll fix it. And they did! When I came with another pillow (the same design, just its twin with the same problem), the lady said it was impossible to fix. When I said that she already fixed the twin pillow, that's when she finally accepted it. Now when I'm asking to her do some alterations on three shirts, she said she "wasn't professional enough" to accept them. She gives explanations like "too hard" or "too much work" and I'm left feeling like she just doesn't want my business. It's unfortunate since she is my neighborhood cleaners and tailor.

I would not recommend completing bridal alterations with this company under any circumstance. My…read moreexperience was nothing short of traumatic. I arrived to my first scheduled appointment the team was not aware of my arrangement. Every subsequent appointment was met with a different staff member who was not familiar with my dress. Previously discussed alterations were not completed or were completed incorrectly. Staff would tell me conflicting recommendations, then assure me everything would be perfected in "quality control" which never happened. Staff were not equipped to properly complete alterations for my couture wedding gown. The studio and space was filthy. My dress became so dirty with dirt and hair. It appeared that an animal with black fur slept on my gown. I could tell there were watermarks from what I assume is attempted stain removal that was not disclosed to me. The staff members left fingerprints on my gown. They did not wear gloves or handle it with care. The alterations were insufficient and done poorly. They were not able to properly taken the corset of my dress in. They just added large bra cups and told me to use bra tape. The bustle was completed incorrectly with a few flimsy hooks that would not have stood wearing my dress all night. I had to pressure the team to rush my dress to be "finished" on time enough for me to take my dress to another salon where I was charged thousands of dollars to fully clean the dress and also complete rushed alterations. My dress was not ready until the day before my wedding, which was extremely stressful and traumatic. Once again, I would not recommend having bridal alteration at this shop to my worst enemy. It is incomprehensible that this team was going to send me down the aisle with a filthy dress with a bustle that was falling apart and a corset that did not fit me properly. This was the experience of a nightmare that caused me and my family many sleepless nights and lots of tears. They not only wasted precious time, but it ended up being very expensive to correct a damage that was done on the salon's behalf on one of the most important days of my life.
