    I have been a loyal customer since the early 90's since it was Marcelo's back then, and I have…read morenoticed that the quality of service has changed for the worse, I had excused it as long as the quality of work was at the same level, but it has been more than once that when I picked up my items, no work had been done? After 30 years of being a loyal customer, I will go somewhere else, I'm very disappointed, but I'm only a customer and can not fix what at no control of my own, is broken.

    Expensive, outrageously crooked stitching, puckering, cut 2inches too short. Called on a Sunday to…read moreask if they could do a couple of minor things on some suit pants I wanted to wear to an interview the following day. The person said the return time would only be an hour, so I quickly went over to the mall location. I just needed the pants hemmed, but when they asked if I wanted them brought in at the waist, I said I'd do that only if they could still be ready that day, She told me that actually neither would be finished that day, even though she had said the hem would take under an hour only 30mins prior on the phone call. Whatever. The tailor who measured me was pretty rude. I was charged an exorbitant $68. Despite him marking while they were on my body, the hem is 1-1.25 inches too short, which just fucks them up entirely, and they didn't create a seam at the hem. I just really did not expect a blind hem for $68. The stitching is ALL OVER THE PLACE and the sewing created puckering everywhere. I did a better job sewing when I was 12. When I finally wore them, I realized how bad they look. So disappointed.

    I have been coming to Marcello's since I was very young, but unfortunately, today's service was…read morecompletely subpar. It feels like they are well past their prime as a business, or maybe they are just over it. My recent experience was incredibly frustrating from start to finish. The woman who took my clothes was abrupt, impatient, and failed to fit the garments correctly during the initial consultation. Many hundreds of dollars later, the actual alterations were way below the standard of a professional tailor. When I returned to try on the completed items, several adjustments were clearly still needed. Instead of fixing them, I was dismissively told that "it was supposed to be like that." To make matters worse, the clothes weren't even pressed--they were just wound up and shoved into a plastic bag. On top of the awful quality and customer service, their prices are much higher than competing businesses in the area. After years of loyalty, I will not be returning. I strongly would not recommend.

    I've been coming to Marcello's since the father ran it, and have loved that his with the daughters…read morechose to carry on his legacy. The reputation he built -- quality, speed, and a family touch -- is a Houston story. Over the past several months, I've become a much more frequent client, and a pattern has emerged. One sister is genuinely warm, attentive, and makes you feel like your business matters. The other is a consistent source of frustration. Too many visits have started with visible irritation on her end, required me to redirect her attention to alteration needs that should have been obvious, and ended in results that reflected the disconnect. She is doesn't seem to love/like the craft or even the business-- and that shows up in how she engages with clients. There have been moments I've walked out so taken aback that I called a friend just to confirm I wasn't imagining it. I wasn't -- this appears to be a pattern others have experienced too. It's also evident in many online reviews. I share this because I want this business to do well long term. Their father built something special, and the foundation is still there. But one person's attitude is a real risk to the reputation he worked so hard to build. I hope she finds her way back to loving this work -- the business and its clients deserve that.
