Richa M.

Got some Indian wedding outfits dry cleaned here. Garments were hand washed by owner. Service was on time and there was a small first time customer discount.

Manager lying to save face.

WORST dry cleaning business in Hillcrest! Every negative review of this place states poor service, high costs for bad craftmanship, and immoral business practices. You will bring your clothes back for a second wash to remove stains and the "professional leather work" is clearly done by an amateur. Save yourself money and a huge headache by taking your business to Ogden's Cleaners, as they only charge $7 to remove a stain from a garment and they won't lie to you about what they can or cannot do. The 50+ yr old manager John will lie to your face and gaslight you in order to avoid facing accountability for his improper work. The comment he left on this review shows his lying nature, as I was never issued a refund for anything I paid for, and him only focusing on a refund and not about every other issue shows his manipulative and untruthful character. He went as far as to say he has footage of conversations of he and I to try to intimidate me into settling with poor craftmanship and not ask for a refund since my designer bags that he worked on have lost value due to the poor quality of work. When he did this, I told him to pull the footage to review, but he got even more upset, further proving he had no intention of doing so if he was so quick to backtrack on his statement because the footage would have proven he was lying through his teeth. He told me several times over the course of 2+ months of conversations that he can clean, remove stains, and repair leather to designer bags that I had, in order for me to sell them. So when I asked to have my items be sent back to be cleaned more than once, as any person, I was upset. But at the 3rd time of me clearly pointing out stains that were still visible, or where new colors of stains miraculously appeared on my bags thay weren't there before, when I finally asked for a refund of the smalleest, colorful bag, John responded with, "No. We removed the stains thay were pointed out." Again, no refund issued, but John is living in a world where receipts and facts don't matter. So if you want $600+ worth of work done over close to 3 months for horrible service, only to get half ass work, come to Veribest Drycleaners.

I tried to find dry cleaning in my area, but the reviews were too mixed and it made me nervous...so I ended up going back to Veribest since they took really good care of my wedding dress in the past. I'm glad I went back because they remain super professional and efficient. My blazers were ready sooner than expected and I was able to get in and get out quickly, both when I dropped them off as well as when I picked them up. I believe the pricing is fair and they do a really good job. They truly are the VERY BEST cleaners!

This is my wedding dress after it has been cleaned and preserved.

Well for starters when I moved to San Diego I needed a trusty dry cleaning service and found veribest! Since then I have used them for just about everything including cleaning my wedding day dress! They are very well priced, the staff has been consistent with an amazing team which I think is important, as well as how kind and diligent everyone is! I have gone for alterations, dry cleaning, and preserving my wedding dress. I moved recently and still drive to Veribest because they are the best! I trust no one else to do my dry cleaning but them! John the owner took very good care of my wedding dress and does all bridal gowns! He was meticulous and got every stain out! Ladies you need to come here!!

Warm reception. First visit discount a plus. Suit dry cleaning excellent. Dress shirt laundering pricey. Parking convenient, but tight.

The best tailor in San Diego! Johnny can do miracles for your wardrobe. Any project you give him he…read morewill do it with excellence, precision, and timeliness. He's done all my blazers, dresses, skirts, shirts - super talented! A true craftsman!

This is one of my rare, one star reviews I am writing due to the terrible service and experience I…read morehad at B Street Cleaners. What a grave mistake it was paying to have my suit altered here. My first error was choosing this place from the beginning. The second, was trusting the owner with my maid of honor suit. The third, was paying him (more like being ripped off) for damaging my suit and falsely advertising his professional services. The intent of my review serves as a warning to folks hoping to get their clothing altered to their heart's delight and to shine a light onto the lack of professionalism, terrible service, and incompetent skills/experience of the owner, Edris. Please, stay away! To start off, save your money and find a different establishment/tailor to alter your clothing! This dude does NOT know what he's doing, especially for the exorbitant amount he charges! I suspect he may be scamming folks. You should consider contributing your money towards a business that deserves it, staff you can trust, and for peace of mind knowing that your clothing won't be destroyed. When I initially called Edris, he had told me via phone that he would be able to alter my suit within 48 hours. Since the wedding I was attending was just a week away and I was in a time crunch, I committed too preemptively. I was initially relieved that I had found a tailor that could alter my suit in such a short time. Boy oh boy, I hadn't a clue the heartbreak and disappointment I'd experience in just a few days. Four days later (outside of the 48 hour window I was initially told), I arrived to B Street Cleaners with my suit, excited to have it altered to my heart's delight. The fitting seemed lackluster. Edris didn't really seem to care about fitting my suit in a way that aligned with my body. He stuck some pins in a few places and would say "that's good" To which I'd respond, "no" and give him direction on what I wanted. I had specifically asked that my suit be tailored to form-fit my body, as it was visibly too baggy/large on me. He didn't take any measurements and didn't alter the suit in a way that fit my body. He seemed to do the bare minimum and it was as if he had never altered a suit before. This should've been the red flag warning me to take my suit and walk out the door. Ultimately, I claim responsibility in making a poor choice in trusting Edris with my wedding suit. However, he is accountable for destroying my suit AND - the cherry on top - leaving a blood stain on the inside of my jacket. He didn't disclose that information nor did he even make an attempt to clean it when I picked it up. And ot course, I didn't notice it until I flew back home and tried it on for my family to see. This was absolutely disturbing and I was appalled that someone who calls themselves a professional didn't even try to fix or mitigate this risky and hazardous mistake. Edris ruined and destroyed my suit with his lousy alterations. Rather than doing what I had asked and what was agreed upon (to have my pants shortened/hemmed from the bottom and to have my jacket shortened & form-fitted so it didn't look so baggy), he made unauthorized alterations. Instead of hemming them from the bottom, he shortened my pants from the crotch/inseam. So much so, that when I tried them on, the seat rode up my buttocks and the pants were incredibly uncomfortable. As a professional, who does that?!? There's no worse thing than to have a wedding suit destroyed and made unwearable, and that was the experience I had after taking my suit to B Street Cleaners. Also, if you happen to be someone in the LGBTQ+ community, I STRONGLY encourage you to go elsewhere, as you may face the risk of having your clothing intentionally ruined. I don't understand how a business that has HUNDREDS of five-star reviews, produces this kind of horrible work and service. Please save yourself the headache, the heartbreak, and from being ripped off/scammed. There are plenty of other tailors out there who will grant you your monies worth, and adjust your clothing to fit your form and make look beautiful.

Great service, been coming here for the last 10 years for dry cleaning, bedding, alterations and…read morenow shoe repairs. Never had anything damaged, always get items on time. Alterations for bridesmaid dresses in under a week. And if you live in one of the nearby buildings they'll even pick up and drop off your items for you so you don't even need to drop by! The consistency you need from a dry cleaning service in a location and convenience that you'd want.

Hello, I recently…read morepaid $60 to have two pairs of pants hemmed. At the time, I thought the price was quite high, but being new to the area and wanting to save time, I decided to make the investment. After picking up both pairs, I went out of town. One pair was fine, as it only needed a one-inch hem. However, the second pair, which required a much larger adjustment, was still far too long. It appears the seamstress may have used the same one-inch measurement for both pairs rather than following the original pin placement on the second pair. Now I'm being asked to pay another $25 to correct what appears to be an error made during the original alteration. I find this unreasonable. I already paid $60 for a service that was supposed to be completed correctly the first time. Charging me another $25 would bring the total to $85 just to hem two pairs of pants! At that price, I could have purchased a brand-new pair. I understand that mistakes happen, but I also believe a business should take responsibility when a service isn't performed correctly. As a new customer, I'm asking you to do the right thing and correct the hem at no additional charge. I'm not asking for anything beyond the service I originally paid for. I would appreciate your consideration and a fair resolution.
