John, the owner, was a man of smiles. He was comfortable to speak with and gave me a wonderful deal on my additional piyao dragon and ball on my current bracelet. He also appraised my current dragon and I found out I overpaid 30 dollars for it. Hahaha! I will definitely return to have a customized steel ring copied as a 24 k gold version. May their business keep flourishing in 2022. No reviews this year yet? Here you go brotha. Hahaha!

Evidence of a discoloration on the chain.

This is a family owned business. Excellent service from the young male. I wondered why he looked sad when I committed with the purchase of a 24k gold chain link. I loved the chain truly. I am in the medical field so I clean my daily items every now and then. I used a combination of chemicals to clean and disinfect my chain after my chain dried up.... Six of the many links on the chain faded from a beautiful yellow gold to a gray discoloration. Inspect every single bit of anything your purchasing. Buyer beware.

The only jeweler you can trust. I have been going to The Goldsmith for over 10 years now - it started as a recommendation from a family member who was gifted a ring created by Jon. I have not gone to another jeweler since. Thank you for all of the beautiful pieces!

Laser engraving

Jon engraved my stethoscope for me and it came out perfectly! Fast service, I went back after 35 mins and it was all ready for me. Cost about $20 which I think is a steal for laser engraving. Would go back again for any engraving needs. Only thing I'd say is and I'm not sure it's in their control but to change the hours for Friday since both google and Yelp said open at 11, but they didn't open closer to 11:45 instead.

So glad I found this place! I wanted a watch engraved and The Goldsmith did not disappoint. Not only did I get a good deal, but the product was just to my liking, and the staff was helpful and courteous. Although street parking can be a little hectic in Chinatown, do not let that deter you from checking it out. There is an underground parking structure (Broadway entrance) and The Goldsmith will validate your parking. Thanks again to Jon for helping me personalize my gift!

They have a variety of amazing jewelry and really great customer service. Even when they didn't have what i was looking for they recommended a place for me. Other shops in the area didn't even acknowledge me when I walked in.

I bought my uncle a nice flashlight for Xmas that I wanted to have engraved with my uncle's last name and nickname. I couldn't find anyone to engrave the flashlight but on Xmas eve found The Goldsmith on Yelp. The Goldsmith was able to engrave the flashlight for me that same day for a flat fee of $15. I was impressed with the quality of their work. The engraving was flawless. I am thankful to The Goldsmith for making my uncle's Xmas present extra special.

Jon custom made my engagement ring based on a picture I sent, it came out beautifully. His price is also very reasonable. Highly recommend

Excellent work, excellent price. Quick turn around time for a custom pendant, and chain with diamond barrel lock. Highly recommend Jon and his family. Thank you!

Love Sam's! Fast, friendly, professional, incredibly skilled…read more I brought in a vintage cluster ring from my grandmother that needed pretty significant resizing from an 8.5 down to a 5, and he did it beautifully without sacrificing any stones. When I went to pick it up, I brought in a watch for servicing and some more jewelry for Cleaning. All of which is completely reasonably priced. I'm really looking forward to having them make a custom piece for me with some loose stones I have. The entire staff is just such a pleasure. I get the impression that regardless of what you bring in, or what you need done- They treat it and you with the same care and respect as they would the Hope diamond. So happy to find a jeweler I can trust!

Sam is a nice man but make sure you do some pricing research in advance. The reviews here were so…read moreoverwhelmingly positive that I didn't look around and got a little bit overcharged I'd say. After dropping my simple gold wedding band off with the promise of a 1 hr turnaround at $125 to have it sized down (he tried to charge $150), I came back 90 minutes later and the ring had clearly not been touched yet. I shared that I'd spent the last 90 minutes researching online and at other shops in the jewelry market and had learned that this service should cost no more than $50. Some places charge as low as $20. I asked Sam politely what the reason was for the steep price difference. He talked about how much time and care went into sizing the ring, and how he used only the best materials so that the cut would be completely invisible. To demonstrate, he began showing me the process, which reinforced my suspicion that when I walked back into the store, he had not yet begun work on my ring. 10 minutes later Sam was done - the work was good, but the seam was indeed visible. After a conversation the price came down to $100. I'm happy, the work is no better or worse than any I have had done before. But be warned that he clearly upcharges for his charm (he's very sweet and complimentary) and generosity (he did a sonic clean on my engagement ring for free). If you want a deal this is not the place. But it's fine otherwise! Not gonna get scalped but not the most price sensitive option if you're in the jewelry district.
