    Pretty Good Dry Cleaners and Fast Turn Around! I have been using Roxy's Cleaners for quite some…read moretime now. It's usually 3.25/4 per dress shirt and suits are typically $8. Prices however do change. Roxy does a discount if you pay cash up front. Most of the time my clothes come back with the stains removed. Since I have used this place so much - once in a blue moon they may miss a spot. The turn around is a couple days or you could pay extra for rush delivery. Roxy is friendly and works with you. As for tailoring - they are okay. I wouldn't recommend brining any expensive jackets or clothes here for alterations. Make sure they cover the jacket buttons when you bring expensive clothes suits and jackets here!!! Overall: A good dry cleaning service. Nice turn around and friendly service. Bring clothes to be tailored to a professional.

    We are extremely unhappy with their service. My last two trips there, they gave me someone else's…read moreclothes (which I am sure must have pleased the rightful owner of these shirts) Each time I returned the incorrect shirts. The first time they were able to find my correct clothing but my last trip from today, I returned the 3 shirts expecting them to replace with my rightful shirts. Instead, they insisted that these 3 shirts were mine because that was the description they input on the ticket. It was ridiculous because I knew these were not my shirts (not even correct size). Instead of apologizing, they asked that I identify the missing shirts. I have like 40 shirts, so i had no idea which shirts i dropped off. They were so unapologetic and insisted I identify the shirts which i couldn't. There were no apologies, no offers to credit future dry cleaning bills to offset the cost of their error. Needless to say, I told them that i would find another dry cleaner. It did not phase them

One sleeve was cut about 4 inches shorter than the other and at different thicknesses of the sleeves. -She pushed me out the door with the dress all bagged up before letting me try it on a final time, and that is my fault I should've pushed to try it on again -Never steamed the hem after she hemmed it so was curled up -Created receipts that I had NEVER been shown before after I told her she sewed a sleeve on upside down -Used every excuse in the book to send me a minimum refund for 'just the sleeves' and then called me shameful for asking my money back. Kept claiming she would send the check the next day and took over a week for her to finally do it. -TOLD ME WORD FOR WORD 'tip your seamstress' and she refused to refund the tip

She has a true eye for style and knows exactly how to make each piece fit perfectly. She's not only amazing at tailoring blazers, pants, and jeans with flawless precision, but she also completely reworked a dress for me for a party--and it fit like it was made just for me. The transformation was incredible. If you're looking for someone who combines skill, style, and genuine care for her clients, she is simply the best.

    I am extremely disappointed with my experience at NK Studios and with Nena…read more In less than a week, I spent over $500 on alterations because I wanted to support a local business. Unfortunately, one of my dresses was altered incorrectly not once, but twice. The shoulders were fixed the wrong way the first time, and after it was "corrected," the hem was returned with loose threads, unraveling, and visible damage that was not there when I brought it in. The dress was falling apart where she hemmed it. I noticed the damage as soon as I got to my car, so I immediately walked back into the store. Instead of apologizing or offering to make it right, Nena insisted that the dress had been brought in that way and refused to take responsibility. The conversation quickly became hostile. She threatened to rip the dress if I didn't stop talking, and she made offensive comments about Greek people that I found completely unacceptable. What upset me the most wasn't just the damaged dress--it was the way I was treated as a customer. Mistakes can happen, but professionalism is shown by taking responsibility and trying to fix them. Instead, I was met with blame, hostility, and disrespect. I genuinely wanted to support this business. I expected quality workmanship and courteous customer service in return. Unfortunately, I received neither. Based on my experience, I cannot recommend NK Studios. Note: this dress is not suppose have a fringe. She ruined the dress. Completely inexperienced, despite her claims. Believe the bad reviews. No loyalty either I was going to her for over 2 years. All she had to say is oh sorry let me fix it. Instead she attacked me. Notice how miserable and depressed she always seems? It's cause she's terrible at her job. And she knows it. Tries to take as much money as she can.

This was off just having a terrible experience with some shirts getting butchered by the local dry cleaner, so I wanted a more professional take. I walked in completely clueless on a whim, tactlessly not making an appointment, and even though it was Juan's lunchbreak he still immediately took the time to see me and work with me. That said... let the man eat. Don't interrupt his break! I still feel bad about it!!! About the tailoring: Juan is just That Dude. He WILL make you look better and point out ways to make the clothes better compliment your body that others don't even know about. The pricing felt extremely fair and not at all like I was being overcharged for the amount and quality of work being done. Not only that, Juan did me a solid by getting the alterations done in-time with a big move out of state. Last minute, off of a random walk-in, and brother still treated me like I was a long time regular. And matter of fact, even though I'm going to be living down south I WILL still be getting my nicest clothing tailored by Juan. That's what his work is worth to me. 10/10 will be making sure I get my nephews' first suits tailored by him too

He clearly takes pride in his work and made sure everything fit exactly the way I wanted. The quality of the alterations was excellent, the service was efficient, and the whole experience was easy and pleasant. It's not always easy to find a tailor you can trust in NYC, but Juan definitely earned my trust. Highly recommend him and Alterations Dot Com Tailor Shop. I'll absolutely be coming back!
