Update: I showed up today and was able to get my suit. Roberto was defensive, at first, but when I…read morewas really clear about how much his lack of communication scared me, he came around and apologized. He didn't have particularly good reasons for not telling me when I could come in, nor why his shop was closed during business hours when I told him I'd be coming in. Ultimately, the most difficult alterations he made were good quality. He missed a few details that we addressed, today, but the hardest parts showed his skill. Overall, I'm moving my review to 3 stars. I really hope Roberto takes my feedback to heart. He's working really hard to build a great business. He's got to communicate more effectively with his customers if he's to succeed, though. --- Hi, does anyone have alternate contact information for Roberto? I'm in a bit of a panic right now. He has my wedding suit for alterations, but his shop is closed during normal business hours. When we were supposed to meet last Friday. He's not answering his business phone or email. I've physically gone there twice, now, but no luck. My wedding is coming up soon. If anyone has any way of getting messages to him or connecting me with him I would much appreciate it.

My friend and I needed our prom dresses altered this season, and we were lucky enough to find Tina!…read moreShe was very gracious and helpful throughout the whole process. We hemmed and took in both of our dresses, each with beading work and multiple layers. She talked us through the various possibilities for altering our garments, and we both found organizing fittings very easy. Tina was always accommodating to our unique and tight schedules. We were very happy with the results of the alterations, and we plan to return with future dresses and clothing! Recommend to anyone looking for tailoring.

I found Tina earlier this year when I wanted to close a slit I had on my graduation dress. When I…read morepicked up my dress from her, I couldn't even tell where the original slit was. Her work is so good! Recently, I came back to get my bridesmaid dress hemmed and it was perfect. A few days later I noticed a stain and didn't know where it came from. So I messaged Tina regarding the stain and how to remove it, and she let me come in on her day off to remove it. (I was too scared to do it myself, in case I potentially made it worse). It's looks brand new again! I was seriously stressing with my friends wedding in less than 20 days! Thank you Tina!!!

My experience with Marcela's business was beyond disappointing. I brought my maid of honor dress in…read moreearly april for altering of the waist only. My first appointment, there were no notes taken on my alterations and my consultation lasted roughly five minutes. I am not well versed in tailoring, but looking back I felt rushed and unconsidered. Coming in for my fitting, she did not greet me or my mom, and neither her nor her assistant really spoke with us. The entire interaction felt cold and awkward. Additionally, she had another client there while I was trying on my dress, which wasn't communicated prior. When I tried on my dress on, the seams on the sides of the dress were uneven and bunched, and she tried explaining it was supposed to look that way, when the dress did not look like that before at all. When I pointed out that the seams on the sides were strange, she said she had not taken in the waist, which was the only thing I had asked for. There were also parts of the seams that were loose so there were loose threads sticking out that weren't there previously. In the front torso area there is also a permanent flap that rests along the ribs. The sleeves, which I did not ask for alterations on, were taken in so crudely that the fabric bunches. I provided a picture of that because it was genuinely shocking to see. They adding a clasp to the dress which I had never asked for. After getting a multiple opinions on the dress from other tailors, I was told that even with alterations only the sleeves could be fixed, and the problems she created in the torso and seams would only look more pronounced. I will say she did sincerely apologize after I explained my dissatisfaction with the service, and reimbursed me for the both the service and value of the dress. However, when discussing this, she disclosed personal information about her assistant who she blamed for the condition of the dress, which I felt was inappropriate and unprofessional. Ultimately she oversaw this project, and should have checked her assistant's work before just giving it to a client in that state. Despite the reimbursement, I felt overall that my dress did not matter and the emotional damage she has caused is beyond repair, as I am less than two weeks away from my sister's wedding. I would have much preferred transparency, even if that meant being told the service was not doable, as I do understand it's wedding season and they are a predominately bridal store, so I imagine they must be very busy. But instead of receiving that consideration and care I received a butchered dress that I absolutely loved and adored before I brought it to her business. Based on my experience, I would not recommend anyone go here, even for bridal needs.

They fixed it right away, but suggested the next time I wanted a suit, to just come to them first. It took a while for me to find a need for that next suit, but I finally did - when someone agreed to marry me. And I knew just where to get my suit. Sydney Gorges hooked me up with an absolutely gorgeous navy suit (and did some alterations for my wife as well). We loved the work and we love her. If you need a suit, there's only one name you need to know: Gorges.

I had a back up dress but really wanted to wear my wedding dress. I dropped off my dress 7/5 1pm & Andy had my dress finished by 7/6 1pm. I had a lot on my plate that weekend as I was stressed w my dress, had family in town that I was hosting, & I was just nervous as my wedding ceremony was coming up. With all that going on for me, Andy & Sydney made me feel so comfortable & at ease. When I tried on my dress & Andy zipped me up - and it zipped all the way up I was so relieved. My dress fit. He saved my dress. I had tears in my eyes & I was so grateful. I was ready to pay whatever price he asked.

I can't say enough wonderful things about Mei! Mei is a true artist and a lifesaver. When no other…read moretailor was willing to take on the challenge of altering my wedding dress which definitely needed some intricate work, Mei stepped in without hesitation. She not only made my dress fit like an absolute dream, she gave me hope when 7 other tailors turned down the job. Mei truly made the impossible possible and at such an affordable price. We first heard about Mei through the Mission Local article featuring her, and now I understand why she is so beloved. Her attention to detail, warm personality, and incredible skill make her one-of-a-kind. My wife and I are forever grateful!

I had a rush size up request on a very delicate wedding dress I bought from my favorite designer in Korea and wanted to make sure the original design was retained as much as possible. Josh was able to do this with utmost confidence and professionalism, and was able to fix my dress within a matter of few days, just in time for my wedding. I was on the verge of having a mental breakdown with the dress not being able to zip up, but Josh was so understanding of my needs and made me feel reassured every step of the way. The final product was as if nothing changed from the original design and most importantly, I could zip my dress up and breathe in it! Thank you Josh, you are a gem!! You made what I thought was impossible possible. I am forever grateful.

My search for a trustworthy tailor came down to two options--one in the east bay and one on in the…read morecity. My criteria's outside of skill was also communication. Here is how I landed on picking Josh over my other comparable option. First, customer service. My initial call with Josh's was met with patience and professionalism. The person who answered my call helped me understand what I'm trying to get done, how long it would take and a good estimate of how much it would cost. On top of that they answered me on the first call. I couldn't say the same about my other options. Second, service. Josh's website makes it easy to book an appointment. I went on, booked a 20 min consultation and arrived to my appointment. I want to say thank you to Josh for being patient because I arrived ten minutes late due to coming from the east bay and he still gave me the time and care he normally would if I came on time. Josh knew exactly what had to be done before I even told him anything. He just looked at me and started pinning things up--I was very impressed. He gave me his honest feedback and allowed me to pick the best option possible for my needs without being pushy about additional alterations/alteration methods. I felt like I was in very good hands. Last but not least, the work. Josh's is only open on Saturdays and closed Sundays--so I had to pick up my suit before work at 8 AM. I tried on my suit just in case I needed additional work and it fit like a glove. I felt ready like I was going to a red carpet event and you can tell how well he did from my photo. Everything fitted perfectly and I left extremely satisfied. The cost was also very reasonable for adjustments on both my blazer and pants--it came down to $200 cash flat and finish time was less than the estimated 2 weeks. So if you're looking for someone to get you ready for that special event in your life, I highly recommend heading over to Josh's. Price is reasonable, work is professional and customer service is topnotch.

As he described it, he approaches every piece as if it is a masterpiece. He does charge on the higher side, but the QUOTE WAS HONOURED, and the WORK IS WORTH IT. My shirt did need some pretty extensive alterations as well. Pro tip: if you're trying to tailor a Polo Ralph Lauren button-down shirt, due to the construction of the shirt, it may take a little bit more time for them to do. Finally, 1. Adi was also really accommodating w.r.t pickup timing, and 2. Adi pressed the shirt for me before I picked it up. I really appreciate these things!
