    Rifka is wonderful. She's always done a great job on the dresses I've needed altered -- and she's kind, too! Cash or check only.

    I had a leather coat altered, which is not easy. Several shops turned me away but this GTH did an…read moreoutstanding job. Very pleased with the work they did.

    I chose this tailor specifically because he quoted $20 for an original hem on jeans, which was…read morecheaper than other places nearby. I dropped off a pair of black jeans and clearly specified--three times--that I wanted an original hem (keeping the manufacturer's original hem intact, just shortened). I repeated it because communication was a bit challenging due to the language barrier, but he repeated "original hem" back to me, so I felt confident he understood. Two weeks later, I picked up the jeans and was disappointed to see a standard rolled/folded hem instead--no original hem at all. When I pointed this out, he showed me another pair of (blue) jeans he'd done with an original hem and explained he didn't do it on mine because they were black, had no distressing, and in his view "didn't need" it. Regardless of his reasoning, I paid for and explicitly requested an original hem multiple times--he simply didn't deliver. Whether it was a misunderstanding, disregard for the request, or unwillingness to do the work, the result is the same: my instructions were ignored. If you value attention to detail and want exactly what you ask for (especially on something specific like preserving the original hem), I'd recommend going elsewhere. Disappointing experience for a simple alteration.

    I was on a business trip in eastern Kentucky when a family friend passed away in Detroit. It was…read moreWednesday night and the funeral was Friday. I called the store when I was 90 minutes out and spoke to Nicole and told her what I needed. She looked up my profile and when I arrived she and her staff had several suits set out for me to try on. I found one I liked that fit quite well and she told me to sit tight while she went to the back and hemmed the pant cuffs. She then pressed the suit and the shirt I bought and found a coupon for the shoes I was buying. Her staff then helped me find a tie and belt on sale and within 40 minutes I was on my way with an entire funeral appropriate ensemble. Even though I love my Men's Wearhouse store in Arizona, I will stop by this store every time I am in Lexington. Nice job!

    I've read a couple reviews before posting mine so maybe I should have read the review before…read morecoming!!! I came in the guy was nice help me find my size and different options. I just wanted to try the full suit on before purchasing and I had also picked a second suit back up off the clearance rack that I wanted to try on. The employee barley let me out of the dressing room to look at the options and when I ask him to give me space so me and my fiancé could look at the suit I was yelled at by another employee that he was just trying to help. When I tried to let the other employe know he had already help me with my size and I just wanted to see the items on I was interrupted and told to leave! Men's warehouse sucks
