I drove down on Wednesday and found street parking in front and just walked in with my shorts. The inside is small but clean and new. It looks like a husband a wife operation that reminds me of the old-time neighborhood tailor. I dropped off my shorts and he wrote up the receipt. They only take cash or checks and ask for payment up front. Fortunately, I had cash on me but, was short by about a dollar. He said it was okay and stamped my receipt as paid, and said I could pick it up in 2 days. I went back on Friday morning and my shorts were ready as promised. I tried to pay the rest, but he waived me off and gave me my shorts. They are prompt, do great work and are friendly and have reasonable rates. Conveniently located and will be my go-to place for any tailoring needs.

That is great customer service so I hope this was just a one off situation!** I took my husband's suit and dress shirt in for a rush order after confirming with the worker that they can do it.

We paid a total of $47 due to the 50% rush fee. I deeply regret taking his suit in. The dress shirt is good so not sure what happened with the suit... please refund me for the suit and rush fee.

I wanted to get a dress altered but was looking for a certain price since the dress itself was…read morecheap. I initially called for a quote and the owner said "How can I quote it when I don't know what it looks like", then hung up. I decided to still go down to get a quote - when I got there, the owner didn't look up when I asked her for a quote, she looked at the dress really fast and told me a price. Since it was a bit over what I was hoping to pay I asked her a few more questions and told her I'd think about it. She followed up with "yeah, don't come back I'm busy". I was honestly so taken aback and I noticed other reviews noting the rude service they got. I understand she is busy, but there are nicer ways to say it! It was disappointing since I've been here in the past and had a great experience. Her prices are reasonable, but service is not there at all.

Her attention to detail and thoughtfulness made the whole experience wonderful.

She called me not 30 min later, and showed up at my house to start that very day 3 hours after that! The amount of love and care that goes into her craft is unmatched. Jo has an essence about her, and you can tell she really puts her heart and soul into her business (which mind you is her hobby!). She was able to return my dress to me with one extra fitting in between within 2 months...which was incredibly fast. We loved that she comes to you for the fittings, as she got to experience my home and meet all of the important members of my family. Additionally, her prices are incredibly fair for the attention to detail. Thank you Jo for transforming my mother's dress into something special for my big day, while keeping its essence!!
