Still the ultimate BEST!!! Been coming to Rina for all my alterations on outfits for years and years. Back when she was down the street on 17th too. She's helped alter all sorts of clothes, from jeans, dresses, and yoga pants, to very nice Ralph Lauren pants and blouses. She's the Queen of helping everything look like it was custom made just for you. Now that I live in Cerritos it's a little trip, but it never stopped when before when living in Long Beach or Dana Point! Ya travel for expertise right? Especially at her prices! So surprised after all these years her price has hardly gone up. (Not like other places.) Adore her. Thank you Tina! You are a Godsend! read more

Tina shortened a gown for a black tie affair. She did a great job for me. She also expertly repaired a hole in a dress. It was complicated and now it's almost good as new. Thanks Tina! read more

$85 to hem a dress is absurd. There's no pricing anywhere; they just charge whatever they want. Be sure to ask about pricing before you leave your items! read more

I have been going there for years and I wouldn't go anywhere else. Tina is a doll and so is the people working for her

I believe I am very picky with my tailoring services and I really appreciate Tina and her colleagues. The pieces I receive back are exactly what I wanted. Very rarely is something off. I'm really believe she has a talented Seamstress. Thank you. :) read more

Affordable prices, great customer service, but questionable care towards customer's garments. I had made two trips to Tina's Tailors to request for a few sweaters to be hemmed, and had discovered upon receiving the first set of finished items that some of the care tags had been removed. This is likely due to the need to shorten the garment past where the care tag was located. I'm not sure if that's common protocol, so I won't fault them for it, but definitely would've preferred if they had asked/told me about it before simply discarding the care tag -- which now leaves me with a sweater that I'm not completely sure if my dry cleaners will know how to deal with. To correct my initial mistake, I had requested for the care tags of the remaining sweaters that needed to be hemmed to be re-stitched on if necessary. They listened, but the care/attention they put into it appears to be subpar at best. The care tag stitching is uneven on one garment, and is flipped & upside down on another. Overall, these are all fairly trivial, but it does make me worry about how much care they'll put into higher stake garments I might bring. Will likely not come back. read more

Had to come back 3 times to get something fixed. If I didn't check repair they would have given me my jacket back with the stitching unfinished. Would not recommend. read more

I ordered a suit for my son and it got delivered a week late. I had to find a tailor who could alter the pants in a day. Tina was able to take care of it and it fit him perfectly. read more

I've Been going to Tina for about a year now and she dos amazing work. I've had a dozen pants taken in & hemmed. She's also done a denim jacket for me. She's an essential business in the area & I highly recommend her. read more

Altered hem as requested. Finished on time. Friendly staff. A bit higher than my usual places for the price of service, but given on where it's located it's justifiable. read more

Came to pick up a dress for a wedding I'm leaving for TONIGHT and there is a sign on the door that they are closed until next week.... No one answers the phone read more

Sweet easy personable! Great availability and willing to work within reason if in a pinch for time. Tina is such a diligent craftswoman with a keen eye and exceptional direction. read more

Tina is remarkable and so is her ability to tailor!!! Her service is literally a cut above!!!! Always on time and also very accommodating when it comes to picking up clothing that's late!!! Truly happy I've trusted her to keep me looking sharp!!! I am blessed to have a body and a suit that fit me snug...I come here to get my pants tailored so I don't look like I am wearing curtains which is usually very cheap and worth the money!!! Love this place! Tina loves her job and she loves to make people get what they want out of their clothes!!! Thank you for the hard work Tina keep it up! ; ) read more

I called Tina in a semi-panic as I needed a dress altered today for a wedding this afternoon. She had me come by and try on the dress-it was around 10am. The dress was complete before 2pm!! I'd never met Tina, nor been to her shop but she did an amazing job AND what speedy service done perfectly!! I'll definitely be back and HIGHLY RECOMMEND Thank you again, Tina! read more

I love Tina's. My mom told me about this place and I've gone a couple times. Each time I come its a very fast and easy process. The prices are more than fair (considering the area.) They did a great job hemming my pants. My mom never has any complaints, they have altered so many of her outfits for her. And my mom is a tough cookie to please so if she's happy that means they are good. read more

She does great work in a very reasonable time frame. She has done multiple pieces for us over the years, from dresses to suits to coats.

Tina is phenomenal! From minor hems to complex alterations everything I've ever given her has turned out absolutely amazing. I highly recommend! read more

They are very professional and have a decent turn around time. I had two pairs of pants done and the quality is very good.

I have been going to Tina for over 20 years! Tina is so talented, so reliable and so accommodating to her customers. She provides Excellent quality work and she is always very willing to make suggestions on what she can do to enhance your item. I highly recommend her shop! read more

I did couple alterations at this place before and it was fine. The last time I left 3 items for 2 weeks at the store, and whenever I went back to pick it up (with my ticket number) they couldn't find my clothes. I had to go to the back to try to find my clothes with someone from the store. Also all 3 items I left there for alterations, were NOT adjusted the way were discussed!! Some parts I requested were not altered at all! I only realized after wearing it. So frustrating. I'm never coming back. read more

I brought in 3 items to get tailored. I had to wait 3 weeks which was not a big deal because I didn't need them right away and I knew they were busy because of the pandemic. but it was not worth the wait. The hem on the bottom of my jacket was noticeably uneven on one side and then my jeans which were supposed to be a straight cut just above the ground, were hemmed and way above the ankle! I had to take them back to get fixed, and when I picked them up they asked me to pay again. Understandably, because of covid, I think the place is disorganized and overwhelmed right now, but that's why I gave them extra time in the beginning to do it. They fixed my jacket and undid the hemming in my jeans, but the bottom of the jeans are soo uneven and have choppy cuts. They took out the hem without fixing their original cut and it's still too short. These were $90 jeans and it's been over a month of getting them adjusted. This place was highly recommended, but I'm definitely not coming back. They are overwhelmed and the quality is so poor. read more

As a clothing designer, having a great tailor is key! I'm so glad I helped Tina's when I was in the neighborhood for an emergency pant alteration for a client needed the next day; I was pleased and relieved she made it happen without stress and great quality! I will be back for sure! Thank you read more

took a brand new (tags on) bridesmaid dress in for very minor alterations (strap adjustments) and it was returned to me with runs all over the fabric. on the front of the dress there are 6 runs all the way down the front and the back is the same. the dress is completely ruined and they did nothing about it when I brought it up to them. no refund nothing. horrible service. read more

I have been going to Tina's tailors and alterations for 7 years and have only had great experiences I highly recommend Tina's tailors and alterations. read more

Great Work! Tina always does a good job and is attentive to details. She goes the extra mile for her customers.

I would NOT recommend bringing your clothes here First they lost my clothes and told me I had them I assured them that I didn't (I had to bring them back because they messed up the alteration and needed to be redone !!! ) Then they found them ... This is after I had to go back several times to get the alteration job correct After paying for the alterations the first time I had to repay for the re do She was rude to me and insisted I pay again for the 2nd attempt alteration job So I did ... I'm just glad to get my things and cut my losses If you care about your clothing like I do ... you would think twice before going here !! I've never ever will go back to this place !! read more

I had my suit and leather jacket taken here. Tina is amazing. Not too many people can tailor well let alone leather. And she did amazing. My favorite part is when she approves of the work at the end. read more

They do a great job! Most recently took in a pair of jeans to hem and they came out perfect. Kind and I think the prices are very fair. Definitely recommend. read more

Tina's Tailors & Alterations is the best around OC. I have had so many dresses and pants hemmed and altered here and each one came out perfect. My fiancé has also had many items tailored and altered here and his shirts and pants always look spectacular. The employees here take their time and show care with each clothing item they receive. read more

Tina's always does a great job, this is my go-to tailor. They can make anything happen, and even on a time crunch. Keep in mind, sequins are done by hand no by the machine, so it is extra if you're altering a dress that has sequins. read more

I love Tina's Tailors & alterations ... they are professional, reliable and have excellent customer service. Tina the owner is so kind..... I highly recommend using them for all of your alteration needs. They are the best!! read more

Tina is the best tailor around! She is the only one I will trust with anything beyond a basic repair (like a loose seam or missing button). She has done an incredible job on everything from my wedding dress (taking in the sides and moving the straps) to hemming jeans to even fixing an oddly styled Indian blouse for me. When my husband needed his new suit tailored, he wanted to go somewhere cheap. I told him, nope: go to Tina. As usual, she did a phenomenal job, taking in the sleeve and fixing the cuff length as well as hemming the pants. Her tailoring always looks as good as or even better than the original stitching. And she has a great eye for fit. If you need tailoring, trust Tina. She's worth the price for the level of quality you'll receive. read more

Excellent service and quality of work!! Tina is always accommodating to time frame item is needed. Very reasonable prices!

There seems to be a constant stream of customers which can be annoying if you're in a hurry, but it's a sign that it is a good place, so I choose to accept that it takes a while when I take something to be fitted. It is the highest quality of sewing (she practically re-designed a dress for me that was way too big!) and it is worth every penny! read more

I was completely Satisfied. Fast and Friendly Service. I'll strongly recommend them to my friends and family... read more

My sister recommended Tina to alter a dress I purchased for a quickly planned wedding before my USMC son left for an unscheduled deployment. The dress was better than purchased and fit like a glove after Tina worked her magic. read more

I dropped my dress off on 12/1/2020 and was told to pick up today (12/5/2020). I arrived at the store and there is a sign closed 12/5-12/20. I completely understand with Covid-19 right now. Although, I was not contacted to pick my dress up sooner or how to proceed. I need my dress for a wedding! How can I get this item back? read more

After my experience at my first U.S. tailor, I really needed to find somewhere else to go. (I was too embarrassed to review the other place--it involved an old man slapping my ass amongst other things...and the dress didn't end up fitting well either). I bought a pretty white dress on sale for a mere $10 (or was it $5?) while walking around UCI. The small, however, was super baggy and too long as well. Tina's charged me $40 to 1) take in the sides to tighten it, 2) turn it into a pencil skirt, and 3) shorten the top meshy part. They said they could finish it in about a week. When I picked up the dress, it was still too long (such that the part that was supposed to hit my bust did not). The woman who was helping me immediately noted this and arranged to have it again adjusted. I was pretty impressed by this. Overall, I was quite pleased with my experience and will definitely come back again if I need anything tailored and I am not going to Asia, where things are dirt-cheap, anytime soon. Too bad I'm poor, so I probably won't be doing much of getting things custom-fitted. I got a lot of compliments though on the dress when I wore it to the Yelp Holiday party. Here's the end result: http://media1.px.yelpcdn.com/bphoto/Am-GQR7j6pog0KqN1EB6Fw/l. read more

Tina's Tailors & Alterations - tailored by Tina! - Sewing & Alterations Near Me - Costa Mesa, California

Tina's the best !!!! She can do almost any request or any altercation. Very happy with Tina Tailors !

Tina's is a great place to go for simple alterations and repairs. She hems dresses, fixes zippers, takes in paints, and does all the basic necessities a person would need from a tailor. Her prices are also reasonable, and her staff are always friendly. I've brought gowns here to be shortened that had 3 layers of fabric and all of them were hemmed perfectly. I've also brought skirts here that needed new zippers. I've always been happy with the quality of her work, and I would recommend her to everyone. read more
