Adam knows what he is doing, is very easy to communicate with and is very delightful. Did a great job altering suit pants and is currently working on my suit jacket. read more

I called and spoke with Adam. Asked about getting a pair of men's pants hemmed, turn around time and cost. Would not tell me how much it would cost to hem suit pants up 1 inch. He said: "Everything we do is custom, it all depends on the pants." Ok - these are just normal suit pants that need a hem, how much would that cost? (Also isn't all tailoring custom?) "Just bring them in, will have to see them to give you a price" Got a quote from 2 other tailors in Burlingame within seconds, no hassles. read more

Update to this review: I took the dress to another tailor nearby (San Mateo). She knew exactly what I was asking for and jumped into pinning the sections that needed alteration, asking how long I wanted things as she went. Super straight-forward, kind, and professional. The best part: her entire set of alterations cost $110. That's shortening the hem, shortening the sleeves, and taking the dress in under the arms (with one layer being a double layer). read more

Extremely arrogant, forgetful and angry owner. Maybe it's age, maybe not however, people coming in for service shouldn't feel discomfort as we did. No matter what customer requests - he makes fun of it and demands that he knows better what to do and "who is customer" to speak their mind. Few times that we did come in with much work - we left depressed after his insulting "lectures" and forgetfulness. Last thing We need is to support a business that has an owner thats abusive with customers. read more

Amazing tailoring and very fast turnaround. Really a crafts man he turned my way oversized jumpsuit into a form fitting outfit. read more

Absolutely top notch service. Very high quality tailoring, even hand tailoring if necessary. Exceptional service and very reasonable prices. This is tailoring done the right way. read more

Adam is an old-school master craftsman (and charmer) who sure knows his trade. He let out a suit that had become too snug due to some pandemic weight and made it fit like a glove and somehow look even more stylish. Cash and checks only - old school! read more

I was getting married and went to the Men's Wearhouse to get a "custom" suit. This was my first suit experience, and long story short what I got from them would make MC Hammer proud (this isn't a review for how bad Men's Wearhouse is, so I will keep it relevant, but my experience was so bad I did not want to take it back to them to have them "fix" it). After looking at yelp for tailors I came upon Adam and his shop in Burlingame, and I am never taking clothes anywhere else again. From the beginning he metaphorically tore the suit apart, outlining everything that was wrong with it and all the corners that were cut. All he was saying was "shame, shame," like I was Cersei in Game of Thrones. The cherry on top was when he showed me the made in China label next to where the "custom" label is. After spending a out an hour taking measurements he told me he would have it ready the day before I was flying out for the wedding (approximately 30 days). I received a call after about 3 weeks that the suit was ready, and my expectations were blown away. My wife and I got married in Cancun and I literally would have been blown away if I kept the suit the way it was, and Adam not only took care of that but had me feeling like I was James Bond. Grade A guy, Grade A service. 10/10 will go back read more

Adam's Fine Tailoring - Tailored by Adam, thank u so much it fit like a glove - Sewing & Alterations Near Me - Burlingame, California

We've used Adam for years. He's a terrific tailor and a very nice man. His work is precise and he really knows his stuff.

I took my NYE dress to Adam for a hem, and the attachment of shoulder straps. The fabric of the dress was "shirred", but Adam, who is charming and a consummate professional, did a quick but perfect job! Highly recommend! read more

Based on yelp reviews I decided to try Adam I was not disappointed. Have now gone there several times Adam is charming, very detail oriented and focused on a quality job. He literally could remake anything - a tailor, alterations, a quick fix. He also is great at giving advice - like "this jacket looks great, I would only shorten the sleeves not change the shoulders etc" So because of Adam I am now wearing a cashmere jacket that had been sitting at the back of my closet! He may be a little more than others - my previous tailor retired - so I am now Adams customer. Highly recommend! read more

Adam is available and responsive for alterations to my suits, and takes the time to measure carefully and make recommendations for the best fit. Turnaround time is also very reasonable. read more

I've been going to Adam for almost 10 years now. I've had not one, but 3 bridesmaid dresses tailored by him and every time they have fit me just to the T! I felt so strongly about recommending him that I signed up on yelp so I could let others know how wonderful he is! I now live in San Francisco and tried to find a tailor that would be as good as he is, but after going to someone who cost the same and spent literally 10 minutes with me, I went back to Adam. He spent over an hour pinning my dress and getting it just right. You know when someone devotes that much time from the get-go that they have a strong sense of pride and care for their work. As always, he made me look like a million bucks in my dress. The next week I brought in the bride to have her dress worked on as well! Yes, Adam is on the more expensive side, but when you want something special done perfectly, his work is absolutely worth it! read more

Brought a work shirt in to get the sleeves shortened, and taper the sides. Shorten sleeves =$28 Taper sides =$38 Total =$66 For a single shirt, don't get me wrong, Adam was nice but it was way over priced read more

I had my suit tailored here. It wasn't a simple job at all with both the jacket and slacks getting some major alterations. Adam was helpful, personable and did a great job overall. You can tell he has years of experience. Only drawback is it's a little more expensive than your average store that does alterations. The quality of work does show where the money went. Highly recommended. read more

Adam is a pleasure to work with, from start to finish. When you choose him, you know that you will receive attentive and personalized service, and that he will get it right the first time. Whatever your tailoring needs, I have no qualms saying he is my favorite on the Peninsula. read more

Best tailor in Bay Area !! Adam is epitome of excellence and professionalism! Whether it's a last minute alteration or full tailored suit Adam has got you covered .. read more

adam is great!! he has tailored several suits for me and they have all turned out great..I highly recommend him Hes fast and his prices are reasonable read more

Great service, excellent craftsmanship, and reasonable pricing. Went in to get my pair of jeans tailored and Adam (owner) took very good care of my needs. Highly recommend to those who needs any sort of adjustment/tailoring work done to your old/new favorite garments. 5 stars! read more

This has been an overdue review. Adam has serviced my family for over twenty years. We all come from all over the bay area to see him for our alterations. He is excellent at what he does. Quality is the best. Thank you for all you do, Adam. read more

I just needed a toggle sewn back on my duffle coat. The cobbler on the street, didn't want to sew it even though I thought a leather sewing machine was needed. The cleaners recommended Adam and I am delighted to have found a great tailor. He fixed it right away and didn't charge much. Adam went out of his way to help me. Will recommend him in the future. A very nice man. read more

Adam is wonderful! He's friendly, and skilled at what he does. I brought in two pairs of pants on which he quickly completed minor repairs. Highly recommend. read more

Adam is a pleasure to work with. I walked in with a gifted sweater that was way too long for me and he transformed it into a perfectly fit piece. I came in with a bunch of ideas and he listened carefully and gave me all the pros and cons of each decision. He truly knows his craft and is upfront with everything such as cost and any issues. read more

Excellent work. I have had him alter two formal dresses for me years apart from each other and both came out absolutely perfect. Worth the money, especially for things like weddings or other important events where the garment cannot be risked in order to save a few bucks. Highly recommended. read more

I recently decided to find a tailor closer to work so that I would not have to bring my denim to SF. I brought in a pair of gray raw selvedge after calling and having Adam confirm he could do a taper from the knee to bottom opening. Adam did a great job on the taper and I am happy with the fit, however be aware that he does not do chain-stitched hemming which may be a deal breaker for denim enthusiasts. Be sure to bring cash as this is a cash only establishment! read more

Got a suit, a few shirts and a coat altered by Adam. He's a very nice guy, friendly in every way and does all alterations by hand. The only problem is, the cost. A bit on the expensive side, but I guess it needs to be priced that way to pay the Burlingame rent. read more

I had a pair of pants that needed fixing on short notice while I was in the area on an overnight in a local hotel. I called him up and he said come on down and he fixed me up in about a half an hour. Nice guy and great work. Really helped me out on short notice. read more

I took a pair of jeans in to get hemmed. Although Adam (I'm guessing that's his name) was friendly, his broken English made it difficult for me to understand what he was saying. Additonally, his prices are much higher than I expected. $24 for a regular hem is the highest I've ever seen anywhere (including New York and Los Angeles). I usually pay around that for an original hem. He did an OK job, but I don't think I'll be going back based on the prices. Pros: Friendly service and quick turnaround. Cons: Pricing. read more

Adam is a tailor's tailor. He can do everything from shortening pants, to altering dresses, to making bespoke shirts and suits. I brought him a pair of royal blue Gap capris that I bought in August, which had varying pant lengths. I asked for them to be shortened further and if we could add a cuff. They came out perfectly. He passed the test, and I knew he would be my new tailor. Twenty pairs of pants, three suit jackets, six button-up shirts, and one dress later, and I am transformed, tailored, and happy -- albeit a little lighter in the pocketbook. Adam hails from Turkey, which as most of you know, is the birthplace of modern day textiles, so you know he knows what he's doing. Sure, he's adoringly bumbley and not always 100% organized, but he takes pride in his work, stitches hems by hand, and is always ready with a smile. If your outfit is inexpensive, don't bring it here. But if you need pieces to last for years, or for a special occasion, this is the place for you.... Says the girl with a 29 1/2 inseam, a workplace dress code, and two special events per year. read more

I would give Adam more than 5 stars if that were a possibility. I brought in a beaded purse that has been in the family for 2 generations. My Mom passed away recently and when I was going through her things I found it. In bad shape with the lining torn and stained. Adam, fashioned a whole new lining with a pocket. It is beautiful! I am going to be so happy to use it and remember my Mom when I do. Thank you Adam! read more

For the past 2 years I've been going to adams fin tailoring; he is one of the best tailors I know in the bay area! He altered an old coat that was given from grand mother which was in a bad condition. He made it into a brand new coat! I was amazed by his work, and now I can pass this down to my kids in the near future:) if you own something so precious and do not want throw it away, go to Adam's fine tailoring, you won't regret it!! read more

I had to get my blazer done within a day or two before my meeting and this place is great! It had a homey feel to it, which allowed me to be at ease with the environment. The service was efficient and fast. Although it is somewhat pricier than other places, the quality here is superb and reliable! I would rather pay more than risk having my stuff messed up, so this place gets the job done from what I had thought walking in! read more

Excellent, skilled tailoring. The prices are high, but worth it if you can afford the best. He's a nice man, too.

Adam does beautiful work. He did a very tricky repair job on a ballgown I nearly ruined, and it came out better than when it went in. He also did a perfect alteration on a coat I brought in. Before I was ever a customer, Adam generously took my measurements for a custom gown I was sending away for without charging me a thing. He was so pleasant to work with, of course I came back! His prices are reasonable for quality work, and he'll work with your time frame. I would trust him with pieces that mean a lot to me! read more

Adam is a phenomenal tailor. Great workmanship and eye for detail. His prices are not inexpensive but the quality speaks for itself. Super friendly. read more

Paid $600 for alterations and was completely mislead by Adam and his abilities. He ruined the clothes and the reviews and Yelps that sent us to Adam when looking for a new tailor, were not even close to the experience we had. The clothes are unwearable and he did not even want to acknowledge his poor work. Do not go to this tailor with nice clothes or let his previous experience as a tailor for Nordstrom comfort you. read more

Absolutely amazing service. Adam is such a kind man and was a pleasure to work with. Would definitely recommend 10/10

Do NOT GO here to get your pants shortened. We are new to the area. First went to this guy to have one pair of pants tailored as a test run. As much as he was charging a lot we decided to give him a try. It came out great. So went back with additional pants. After telling him to keep the originals on the pants he did a botch job with NO original bottoms on ANY of the pants! When I went to complain guess what happened...I got blamed for not telling him what I wanted?!!! Not to mention one of them pants were not even measured correctly! This guys is either outsourcing his jobs. Anyways. Now I can't wear my pants! They are ruined! read more

Adam is nothing but a star! I was in from out of town for an urgent project. He got it done quickly with incredible quality and a fair price. read more
