Only spotted one or two items that appealed. For the most part just not my style. But from the number of years in business and positive reviews the Nest does have a good following. Can't believe that in all my years of visiting PG, I have never been in this store. Only found it because of a sandwich board sign on Lighthouse. Yes, old fashioned advertising still works!

Excellent personal service, more so than I've experienced anywhere else. I had searched for a…read morespecial dress for hours online and in the Bay Area department stores and small shops. No luck, but with Phyllis's help, found two at The Nest. They have unique casual clothes too. They do have sales every so often, sometimes as much as 50% off.

So glad there is a custom suit and shirt company in town now. Ive always been in between sizes so…read moreit was really hard to find something that fit just right. The only solution was to purchase custom fitted items and when I was traveling overseas a lot more it was easier to find custom clothing options. Moving back to carmel it was very tough to find good fitting clothes and then finally I met Scott and was able to customize a few shirts and suits and they came out fantastic. Five stars for a job well done and can't wait to order my next round of goodies. Thanks Scott!

ALYSSAthats it thats the review!…read more After visiting multiple bridal salons, I can honestly say Alyssa was the only stylist who truly listened to what I wanted and what I was looking for. She took the time to understand my vision instead of trying to steer me toward something that wasn't me. The funny part is that she made my decision harder--but in the best possible way! Every dress she pulled was absolutely beautiful and fit my style so perfectly that choosing just one became incredibly difficult. That says so much about how well she listened and how talented she is. Alyssa made me feel comfortable, supported, and excited throughout the entire experience. I never felt rushed or pressured, and I always felt like she genuinely wanted me to find the dress that made me feel the most beautiful. Finding my wedding dress is a memory I'll cherish forever, and I'm so grateful Alyssa was a part of it. If you're looking for someone who truly listens, understands your vision, and has an incredible eye for finding the perfect dress, I couldn't recommend her more highly. Thank you, Alyssa, for helping me find my dream dress!

5 stars for STELLAR service by the owner, Janis! We stumbled upon Cognito Clothing on our trip to…read moreSanta Cruz and needed a few outfits for a Gatsby-themed party in LA. Cognito had an abundance of options and we found a few gorgeous pieces! My husband unfortunately left our purchased items at another cafe around the corner and Janis quickly worked with us to coordinate our order to be shipped to LA. We appreciated her incredible customer service, as any other business owner could have brushed it off and said too bad, as it was our own fault, however Janis went above and beyond to make sure we got our pieces shipped to LA and couldn'y be more grateful! We will absolutely be back when we visit Santa Cruz again. Just wanted to share about the kind-hearted owner who absolutely deserves all of the business!!! Please do yourself a favor and visit Cognito Clothing when you're in Santa Cruz!

If you want to have contract rules then there should be a contract and the payment should also be through a legitimate business channel. I understand the deposit.

As I stood their waiting I called and text but she never replied. Too bad I didn't ask for a deposit for my wasted time. 5 stars is to not ruin her rating for the people who appreciate her talent.

She was able to trim and alter not just my own dress, but my aunty's and cousin's as well in a very short amount of time which gave us plenty of breathing room before the planned event even if it was a month away. We would try on the dresses and she communicated with us very well on what we wanted and what she would get done to make the dresses look most suited best for us. Will forsure be recommending to others and coming back ourselves for any future alterations.
