    Mohib Q.

    I've been coming here for some time and have found that Sparkling offers some promotional days - Tuesdays and Thursdays that are great to use. I've been able to address collar stains and other needs at times for dress shirts, and have collectively been able to decide whether or not they need treatment. This is because deep stain treatments, at times, can shorten the life of a piece of clothing. Overall, I've found this place pretty accessible off Manchester and reasonable. The owner is friendly, and so I'm not sure the other reviewers have been fair to the service this cleaners is providing. Regardless, my experience has been nothing short of positive and I look to keep coming back to support this business.

    Smelly stain on outside on dry cleaning bag
    Avalon H.

    I'm new to the neighborhood and thought I'd give this place a try. I'll never be back. I picked up my clothes from here and immediately put on one of the sweaters that had just been cleaned. As soon as I took it out of the bag, I was overwhelmed by the stench of animal feces. The sweater and all the other clothes I had cleaned at Sparkling Cleaners smelled like feces, right out of the bag on the very day I picked them up. There was also a disgusting stain on the outside of one of the bags. When I brought the clothes back to Sparkling Cleaners and explained my concerns about the clothes, the owner did not apologize and instead suggested that the clothes smelled bad when I brought them in to be cleaned. He had no explanation for the stain on the bag and refused to even smell the clothes to see what I was talking about until I absolutely insisted. He offered to clean the clothes again for free and I at least thought I'd give him a chance to fix the problem. When I came to pick them up again, the owner still did not apologize and even suggested that the clothes smelled bad because they had been sitting in my car for a long time before I returned them to him. The clothes smelled that way as soon as I picked them up the first time, and they were only sitting in my car for one day before I brought them back. His excuses for the awful smell simply don't work. Most of the clothes smell somewhat better but the sweater still smells like animal feces and there is now a sticky spot on it that wasn't even there when I dropped the clothes off the second time. I am beyond disappointed in Sparkling Cleaners and will not be returning.

    Imad, the owner, is the kindest person. He gives us great customer service and his prices are good. Our clothes are always cleaned very well and his alterations are pretty good too. He gives us 20% off on tuesdays. I have never had a problem and if I do , I know he will fix it. We have been taking our clothes here every week for a few years.

    Ok this review is long overdue since this happened last year. I was planning on letting this go and…read morenot write a reviews about this, but this morning I saw the sweater again and I got upset all over again so here it is. This place RUINED two of my sweaters by shrinking them. I picked up my dry cleaning, went home to take them out of the bags, and immediately noticed that they were damaged. I went right back to the shop with these two sweaters and asked the worker to fix it. They told me to leave them and come back when the manager is in the store. Which I did. I took stock photos from the respective websites of where I got these sweaters from and showed the manager how they now looked different from what they were supposed to look before I brought them here. I asked them if they were washed by mistake bc I know water would ruin these materials. The manager smelled them, attempting to confirm " yes they smelled like they're dry cleaned" and was bewildered as he said this shouldn't have happened blah blah blah. He then told me to leave them at the shop as they would try to fix by relaxing them, or whatever the heck they're gonna do. A week later I went to pick them up, well, let's just say I didn't have high hopes they'd fix them, and my low expectation was confirmed. As someone who's ruined sweaters in my younger years by being careless with cleaning (and by being cheap too thinking not everything has to be dry cleaned just bc the label says so), i sort of knew these were damaged goods by this point. One of the two sweaters was far beyond repair. The yearn became so stiff that it couldn't be stretched out, even if they tried. It was a turtleneck sweater and it wouldn't even fit through my head anymore. Mind you, I am on the smaller side, but the sweater was a joke after I brought it here for dry cleaning because it became so small it wouldn't even fit a 5 year old. The other sweater was a nice mohair sweater that's slightly slouchy and drapes beautifully over the body. After dry cleaning here, the sweater was shedding, misshaped and also shrunk. They also attempted to fix it by stretching it out. Well, due to the material, it was able to be stretched but the hem line was all messed up, it has this weird curve bottom now instead of a straight hem. And it is no longer slouchy, it's more like a cropped sweater now. I am so pissed off that they didn't even apologize! Nor issued me a refund. Instead, they acted like they're surprised that the damages happened. HELLO! Guess what? I am surprised too! And after their attempt to fix them, they seemed to think they've done a good job. Well. The did not. The turtleneck was immediately donated to textile recycle. I kept the mohair one due to sentimental value. I just saw it again in my closet this morning which prompted this review. If you valued your valued clothes, don't come here. I've never been back since this happened.

    I spoke to the manager to ask for a refund for an alteration that was not done. He told me that he…read morelooked at the Tailor's notes and the alteration was done, I told him it was not done. Instead of keeping a customer happy he chose to talk over me and ask me to bring the dress back in for further investigation. No, thank you. La vista Cleaners will receive all of my business. The customer service is outstanding. As a resident of Playa vista I will not use Holloway cleaners ever again.

    WARNING: UNETHICAL BUSINESS PRACTICES! DO NOT TRUST THIS PLACE!…read more I hesitated to write this review, but people deserve to know the truth. If you want your clothes returned in good condition, steer clear of Monty's. The owner, Christine, is unreliable and unwilling to take responsibility for her business's mistakes. My first visit to Monty's was to dry clean a custom-made white pant suit for my brother's wedding, where I was the best man. When I returned two weeks later, my suit had turned completely yellow. Christine denied any wrongdoing, insisting it looked the same as when I dropped it off. I even had to show her wedding photos just to prove it had been white. After two months of constant follow-up, I was given a small credit from her husband--far less than the suit's value. I felt they were just dragging things out, hoping I'd give up. Despite my better judgment, I gave them another chance to use the credit. I dropped off seven items, left town, and returned three weeks later, only to be told my clothes were missing. Christine promised to contact me, but never did. After repeated follow-ups, she said she needed three more weeks to "look for them." Now, a month and a half later, my clothes are still missing, with no responsibility taken by Christine. Each time I reach out, I'm met with a new excuse. RUN, avoid Monty's completely--find a place that values your business and your belongings!

    Monty's is located in an unassuming location at the corner of Pershing and Manchester Ave in Playa…read moreDel Rey. There isn't a sign up front, and so you'll note it to be next to Cafe Boheme and a cross-fit gym. It's a low key, clean place that has been in the neighborhood for many years, apparently. What I like about Monty's is that, despite their tiny parking lot, you have decent prices in comparison to the rest of the neighborhood. It is $5 a shirt, and you'll get it back in decent shape, and they'll put red tape on collars that need work. For the most part, the lady that runs the place is relaxed and you may even need to call a number when coming in to get an attendant to come over from the nearby laundromat. I do think they could use more business as the pandemic has been tough on dry cleaning establishments, and they have reduced hours between 10am to 4pm. If you can't find parking, just park in the adjacent parking lot and walk your stuff over, as there is a pathway between the two lots to walk over. I hope you get to enjoy their handiwork, and know that none of your clothes will ever go missing.

I've literally probably been here once a week for the last year getting things tailored and dry cleaned. Also so incredibly affordable. Elena is such a sweetheart and this place deserves all high praise. I've taken my leather and suede jackets to other places but I feel like they were never actually cleaned. I have pretty bad allergies so I kept sneezing and itching my eyes even after getting my leather cleaned at other places. When I brought it here, my stuff actually got cleaned and my allergies improved significantly! I've also had formal dresses taken in and shortened here. The finish was seamless. I just shortened a thick cable knit sweater, which can be so difficult and possibly not possible to alter. Elena and her team made it look so natural!

I could gripe about them not getting it right the first time but from my experience, a dry cleaner who's willing to wash your clothes again at no extra charge is not always a guarantee. So this place gets props for that. Price is also not bad. If I still lived in Ocean Park or if I moved back there, I wouldn't hesitate to come here for my dry cleaning needs.
