    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

    Tailored by Adam, thank u so much it fit like a glove

Honestly, the seat looks just like new again; the repair is so seamless that you cannot even notice where the original damage was.

I had the pleasure of working with Jay, who was incredibly knowledgeable, friendly, and easy to talk to. From the moment I walked in, he took the time to understand exactly how I wanted everything to fit instead of rushing through the measurements. I brought in quite the assortment too: a Filson trucker jacket, a pair of raw denim jeans, and my Red Wing Iron Rangers. He was confident in his recommendations while still making sure the final result matched what I was looking for. You can tell Jay takes pride in his craft, and that level of experience gave me a lot of confidence leaving my favorite pieces in his hands. Customer service like his is hard to come by, and it made the entire experience enjoyable. The only reason I'm giving four stars instead of five is the price. The total came out to around $340, which definitely caught me off guard. To his credit, Jay was kind enough to give me a discount on the jeans and only charged me $300 cash, which I really appreciated. Quality craftsmanship isn't cheap, and I understand you're paying for experience. If you're looking for someone who knows what they're doing and treats your clothing and footwear with care, Jay is someone I'd recommend. Just be prepared for premium pricing.

    I've been searching for a reliable tailor in the San Francisco area, and Tina's Alterations was…read moreexactly what I was looking for. I had four dresses that needed alterations for several upcoming weddings and initially sent Tina photos of all of them. Rather than accepting every project, she carefully evaluated each dress and agreed to work on only two. She explained that while the other two dresses could technically be altered, the fabric and fit would make it difficult to achieve a result that met her quality standards. I greatly appreciated her honesty and professionalism. Many businesses would have accepted all four dresses, but Tina was focused on delivering work she could confidently stand behind. Her transparency and commitment to quality immediately gave me confidence in her expertise. During my first visit to Tina, I brought both my dresses to try on to assess the alterations that I needed done (mostly hemming). She provided a quote at that time, and stated that payment could be made at pick-up. I found her pricing to be very reasonable given the complexity of the dresses (material and multiple layers). The two dresses she altered turned out beautifully. The craftsmanship was excellent, and the fit was exactly what I wanted. The turnaround time was about two weeks from drop-off to pickup, which I found very reasonable (especially since I had told Tina there was no rush). She clearly takes pride in her work and pays close attention to the details that make a difference. One thing to note is that English is her second language and Mandarin is her first, so there can be a bit of a language barrier. If you speak Mandarin, communication will likely be even smoother. That said, I found Tina to be thoughtful, professional, and genuinely committed to achieving the best possible result for her clients. I would definitely return for future alterations and would highly recommend Tina's Alterations to anyone looking for quality workmanship and honest, trustworthy service.

One time I had to get a pretty loose-fitting suit (a suit that was originally from the 80s) tailored. Mrs. Almasi, the owner of the shop, was very knowledgable of not only how to tailor the suit just right, but she also knew about the latest styles and looks that would bring my suit up-to-date. Once I picked up the suit, I found a garment that was stunningly updated and beautiful. This place is a family business, and it really feels like it. Every time I walk in, Mrs. Almasi knows exactly my measurements, my tastes in style, etc. Plus, you get a lot of great quality work, service and care for the prices you pay here. Oh, and did I mention that the shop practices green cleaning? That definitely makes me feel better each time I bring something in to get washed.

I was told it would cost more for the jeans but that they'd be able to repair them. When I got the jeans back, there was a giant white spot where the tear used to be. It happens to be in the groin area, so they're basically unwearable now. I went back in to see if there was anything they could do to fix them or redo the repair. The woman said there was nothing they could do. I politely asked if I could get a refund for just the jeans, since they're unwearable now. She said she couldn't, because the tear was repaired. If I'd known the repair would leave them unwearable, I never would have paid the extra cost for jeans. Save your money and your clothes and go somewhere else for sewing.

I did some research for other dry cleaners that offered cleaning & preservation but Mulberry's just ended up being the best option for me in terms of pricing & location. The drop off process went smoothly and I was told that the dress won't be ready for pick up until May so I kind of just forgot about it. Of course there were still some worries especially since this is such a sentimental piece of garment that I'm having cleaned & preserved. I received a notification this week that my dress was ready for pick up so was pleasantly surprised by how quickly they finished. For a flat rate of $500 for cleaning & preservation, I thought it was a pretty good deal. My dress was beautifully packaged & the garment bag I dropped it off in was also returned back to me. Overall very satisfied with the service I received here & would likely return for other dry cleaning needs.
