I'd posted a review previously where I wasn't supper happy about the process of the appointment etc, I'm pleased to say that JD and team went above and beyond to rectify the issues and when I went back in to see them with more clothing it was a great experience. Top notch service, and most importantly great quality work. read more

Juan is amazing! Went here to get my dad's old suit altered to fit me and it came out perfect. Best tailor service in the city. Highly recommend going here if you need any piece tailored. Thank you Juan! read more

ALTERATIONS MASTER IS THE BEST!!! This is the best tailoring experience I've ever had and will definitely use them again. They are located on the second floor of an office building so you won't see the storefront from the street. My dearest friend gave me a ball gown she wasn't going to wear again for a holiday party I was attending on Friday (it was Monday). She 5'8" and a size 4. I'm 5"0' and a size 0/2. I brought my lovely green silk gown to them on Tuesday. The pinned me and told me they'd e-mail me when the dress was ready. They called me for a second fitting on Wednesday and the hem was slightly off and the waist was slightly tighter than I would have wanted (I love food and want to eat at the party!!). The manager told me they'd fix it no problem and warned me that my zipper was coming apart a bit. To change the zipper it was about $30 and I didn't want to spend the extra money but the dress was so gorgeous and I didn't want to risk a wardrobe malfunction at the event so I agreed. They promptly make the requested changes and called me back for the last fitting on Thursday and everything was perfect. The dress fit me like a glove and I couldn't be happier!! I've paid way more for alterations at other places and have not been as happy. Alterations Master isn't cheap but you really get what you pay for-- awesome work and fast professional service. They also charge a rush fee but their work doesn't look rushed at all (I am super picky). The best part? They didn't charge me for the zipper because of the "trouble" they gave me because the first alterations weren't perfect! This is how you make lifetime customers... I'm getting married this year and will be taking the outfits I need to tailor to them. read more

Very happy with the service and quality I've received from Alterations.com. Juan is a perfectionist, which I really appreciate because that's what I want out of a tailor. He'll tell it to you like it is, which I also appreciate when getting something as important/expensive as a suit tailored. On top of the great service, they offer a lifetime guarantee for any service they provide. Even if you gain/lose weigh, bulk up, change the way you want something to fit - they'll still honor their work and change to your liking. I'm thrilled to have found somewhere competitively priced that provides great, consistent service. read more

This is a great alternative to other tailors in NYC (solid price, decent hours, up front pricing on the website, guarantee etc.) but my only complaints are required appointments to drop off and pick up clothing (I prefer going at my own time but I get why they do it). Secondly, although this place takes Visa/MC or cash, the times I stopped by they did not have change for cash transaction (just an fyi). I prefer card but for those paying by cash this can be quite an inconvenience. Another thing is that you might have to wait a while to get someone on the phone live but I believe a mobile number is posted on their website in case of emergencies (fyi). Their prices are unbeatable when you manage to get a discount from their website coupon, yelp deal, yelp check-in etc. otherwise it's not really competitive. I noticed the coupon from the website is now gone (as of 2/1) and wouldn't be surprised if the other deals/coupons went away. I was surprised to find out this place has been around a couple of years (despite most of the reviews being written in the last 60 days). I guess all the price discounts are driving up all the 4-5 star reviews. Curious to see what happens when those go away... until then, take advantage of this place. read more

I have been coming here since 2014 when they used to be on 5th ave and the other person owned this place. And now Juan does alterations for all my clothing. All of my suits/coats were altered by them. They are impeccable. My off-the-rack suits now fit like customs. I always shorten the suit sleeves but no one would ever notice that since they shorten from the shoulder and do seamless work. You might think this place can be a bit more expensive than other places, but they are really worth it. They truly deliver what you pay. You really don't want to bring your designer clothing to bad tailors... But also Juan really cares and appreciates my clothing. And he listens to what i want. I highly recommend this place for suit/coat alterations. read more

These tailors did a great job with my two work pants, and I had a great experience throughout. They were very quick in their measurements when I dropped the pants off and made sure that everything was right when I came to pick them up. I also got a first-time discount. I love that they have a lifetime guarantee, and I will definitely be back if I need anything else tailored! read more

Overall they did a great job. Although they took awhile with one dress, they did not end up charging me. I was very happy w/ the customer service. read more

During the coldest point of winter, my coat zipper broke and JD at Alterations Master Tailor Shop was able to work his magic in just a few hours even though I didn't have an appointment. You'll appreciate their attention to detail & quick turn-around. Highly recommended! read more

Tucked away in the mezzanine floor of a midtown building is a pretty solid tailor shop. I came here because of the Yelp reviews and the close proximity to my office. I've only had jeans and dress slacks hemmed here, and they've done a pretty good job. I also like how they are internet savvy. You can easily set up appointments online on their website, they send you invoices and appointment reminders via e-mail, and offer awesome $12 discount coupons right on Yelp! They also have a great guarantee policy. Another sign they are legit is that I've seen 2 wedding dresses being altered here. Those are pretty fancy so I'm assuming they must be pretty good at what they do. Simply, I would come back again. read more

So, I suppose I'm just ANOTHER 5 star review for these guys...but just wanted to say: amazing, amazing spot. Tucked away in the middle of mid-town (like dead center) this place does fantastic work. Yes, it took a week. Yes, it wasn't the cheapest - but boy, do you get what you pay for here. I brought in a beautiful pair of pants that I bought on sale at Turnbull and Asser - they were at least three inches wider in the waist than I wanted, the seat had to be adjusted and the legs required pretty significant tapering. I basically figured that the alterations were far too extreme to warrant the purchase...but I had sale goggles on, and bought them anyway. Brought them in to Alterations Masters - they took a look, made a number of measurements and adjustments, and one week and $100 later, I have a pair of pants that basically look like they were cut FOR me. Awesome service - you can book, cancel and reschedule appointments online (note that they're by appointment only for both pickup and drop off, though same day booking didn't seem to be a problem) and everything is dealt with promptly and professionally. Guess I know where I'm going for alterations from now on! read more

Called at 1130am, had a 12pm appointment. I believe it was the owner that helped me. Such a nice guy, spoke through pricing, was detailed in measuring. Had me in and out in less than an hour with 3 dresses (2 sizes in each). My dresses will be ready in 2 days. Which to me, is an incredible turn around time. Excited to see how they come out. read more

I have a few tailors. There's the budget tailor that does simple pants and sleeves on lower budget clothes. and then there's places like this - the tailor for suits and stuff you don't want to take chances on. The work is guaranteed - if you don't like it, supposedly you don't pay- but I haven't had to find out because the work is good, no complaints. I had shoulders worked on in a sport coat and an overcoat taken in, which I would not have done at a budget place. Not cheap, but you save yourself grief by not taking chances. read more

I came back to this place after two years to alter a bridesmaid dress (which they've altered before) into a cocktail dress. The tailor, JD, consulted with me very nicely and professionally. He is simply the BEST! I needed my dress in 4 days and they made it possible! I am soooo HAPPY with how my dress came out! It fits so beautifully and they hemmed the bottom and the sides neatly. I received many, many compliments on my dress at my friends wedding. Ultimately, they have great service and reliability. I would definitely come back, and recommend to anyone. They are true Masters of alterations. read more

They are pricier than other places but do a good job on nice items. They are nice to negotiate with and are reasonable people. Best of all I think is the way they employ technology which makes things more convenient. read more

I asked them to reinforce the buttons on my Burberry coat. The buttons kept falling off anyway BUT Alterations Master holds true to their guarantee policy and everytime they fell off they made sure to to see me and fix it SAME day (with no additional charge). This happened 3 times. They tried new methods each time and when they fixed it, they fixed not just the button that fell but ALL of them- which was very generous and thorough of them. We eventually realized the buttons (metal) were just sharp and heavy and were cutting through the thread. This last time, they used stronger string AND buttons to reinforce in the back- once again with no additional charge or complaint. Hopefully it'll stay on...but if not, at least I can be sure that they'll be there to sew it back on again. read more

These guys are professional and really knows their stuff. I have been here several times now for suit/jacket fittings. Cost is definitely not cheap, but the work is legit. If you are spending $500+ on a piece of cloth, why not perfect it with a tailor? The turnaround time is always as promised and I will keep sticking with these guys for the near future! read more

I have to apologize to the yelp community and this establishment. My guy got confused when pointing out the tailor we went to and that last review was meant for SOMEONE ELSE! I have not used this establishment's services, but I will tell you this. I worked with the owner on getting to the bottom of whether this place was the one we went to, and he is the most dedicated business owner I think I have ever met (or, well, emailed). At first I thought his response to me is hostile, but after the third email, I understood. He truly truly did not believe that such a horrible experience could have happened at his shop. By the end of it he has offered to try and fix the jeans that the last place ruined!! Absolutely give this place a try. I know I am! Sincerest apologies again, B read more

I have to say, the owner and employees take pride in their work. It shows in the results and the service that they offer.

After losing 50 pounds my custom tux and custom blue pin stripe suit were huge and my local tailors wouldn't touch them. Upon recommendation, I made an appointment and they measured and pinned for quite a while. Only a week later, I came in for a fitting and they were close. A few hours later, both the tux and suit are absolutely perfect. Amazing. It was quite a challenge for them and Juan and his crew came through, with smiles and great patience. I highly recommend them. read more

I read about Alterations Master when I was researching other tailors to use for my sister's bridesmaid dress from Jenny Yoo. I came upon Alterations Master and they had good reviews so I gave it a shot. I have to say, I have a weird shape - I'm super broad on top and smaller on the bottom, which made the dress super hard to have to fit- The online appointment making tool is key - I've worked with tailoring places that either didn't have any openings or didn't understand what you were trying to say - the online system was major when choosing to use them. I brought my dress in more than a month in advance because I knew it would take several fittings for it to be perfect. I was met by JD and Lystra (sp?) who was eager to get my fitting done with (I came towards the end of the day). I was told that the dress would be ready in about 2 weeks and to make an appointment to come back. Two weeks go by and I receive an email saying the dress is ready - I went in, knowing it wouldn't be done, but hoping for the best. Lystra took the dress in too much and she had to let out the sides for my next fitting. We went back and forth for 3 weeks getting the fit perfect. Each time, I thought JD was getting sick of seeing me, haha, but he always reassured me that it was his job to make sure I was happy, which was nice to hear. I went for my final fitting this past Wednesday, and the dress fit amazingly. I will have to get some Spanx, but all in all, a strapless dress SHOULD be tight on top so as not to fall down when I'm boogie-ing at my sister's wedding. I have to say, at the end of the day, JD, his staff and Lystra were extremely accommodating - from the fittings to the changes I asked to be made (they fixed a seam that I didn't like after I'd seen that they could make it look better). I paid about half of what the dress cost for alterations, but I have to say, it worked out for the best and I can't wait to wear it next week! I will definitely be bringing more garments here to be tailored :) read more

I have been coming to Alterations Master for the year or two and have never had a problem. Once I had them hem pants and 2 weeks later decided they were a bit too long so I took them back and they realtered at no charge (but i did tip the guy). I am usually in and out within 15 minutes or so and all the employees are very nice. Customer service is great as they truly care about their reputation. I have done a great deal of business with these guys and will continue to do so. They turn around hems within the week and can even do next day tailoring at an additional cost. I have had friends get serious tailoring done and even custom suits (which isn't cheap but not overly priced) and they look amazing! They currently have a coupon special going on right now also. read more

I have wanted to write a review for JD (since the second week of March) and let everyone know that he provides an incredibly Brilliant atmosphere and unbelievable talent at this Studio. He is a Master at what he does, and in my experience, shows an amazing level of expertise. My boyfriend and I brought 5 very difficult dresses into JD that I needed to have altered , in addition to 2 pieces of apparel( previously altered/ butchered by a different Tailor/dry cleaner who ruined each piece. ) I was overjoyed to see JD's meticulous and absolutely perfect end products for everything I brought in to him. I was and still am completely speechless to the beautiful work he has done in less than a week. He is Marvelous at executing perfection in any type of alteration and an added bonus was his professional honesty and genuine care for his clients!!! I encourage everyone to go see JD especially if you want high quality alterations. Thank you a thousand times over and over again!!! read more

Very happy with experience. I had my wedding suit made six months ago and then lost a bunch of weight. My suit looked like a box on me, and I only realized it one week before the wedding! These guys took me seriously when I said I needed a rush job. I was nervous, as they pointed out a lot of places that could be fixed up, with some shortening and slimming pretty much everywhere. It looks great and fits me really well now. The physical place takes a bit to get used to, it is a bit crammed. However, having gone to tailors in Hong Kong, was totally used to this. read more

This place is incredibly organized and professional. You book your appointments before you go in through an online scheduling system. Easy as pie. Even though I had to come back a couple times to get the dress perfect, they went the extra mile and really helped get it just right. They are very easy to work with and offer competitive prices. Don't forget to print out the coupon on Yelp! read more

I can't say enough good things about Juan. He's a magician with suit alterations and he's a perfectionist. I've brought 4 suit jackets to him over the course of a year and each time, he'll work on the issues until they're to your (and his) satisfactions. These were online MTM suits and they're getting closer to a good fit bc he would tell me what needs to be altered for the next suit order. Of course, this could hurt his business with me as my suits need fewer and fewer alterations but that speaks to his customer care and integrity. But seeing how my suit shoulder issues are not going away anytime soon, he'll continue to have my business. He has my complete recommendations! read more

Sew, this place is pretty good. Online appointment scheduling. Inside is like a tailor sweatshop, but they are efficient, attentive and do nice work. It's a bit on the pricey side - $50/seam, so my dress cost $100 (two seams). Check in with social media to save a few bucks. read more

I actually promised JD I'll write this review quite a while ago. Top notch service, top notch professionalism. They obviously know what they are doing, and they do it very well. I went there to tailor my to-be wedding suit. This is the best tailoring experience I had and the results were terrific. You get notifications and communications over emails and there is a great yelp deal! They even sent it to the dry cleaners for just a few extra dollars. When I came back for the fitting JD insisted I try it on and he noticed something was off so they fixed it on the spot. They also give you a one year guarantee! I'll go back. read more

This is the BEST experience I've ever had with tailoring and alterations. Had two new suits tailored, got me in quick and turned around my suits several days earlier than expected. Best customer service, they are incredibly nice and professional. They know what they're doing. My suits came out perfect and they have a LIFETIME guarantee on the work. Who does that? This is my place from now on. You won't go wrong here. read more

I'm addicted to this damn place. I love it so much that I hate it, I hate to love it. Complete loyal customer, can't ever imagine going to another business for tailoring. Juan measures with blade like precision, and everything will fit perfectly, I guarantee it. read more

I needed a wedding gown tailored in less than a week, and Juan took on the task. It was a complicated job with lots of layers and beadwork, and Juan did a beautiful job hemming the dress and taking in the sleeves. Due to the beadwork, he had to take it in at the waist, which involved major reconstructive alterations, but in the end the outcome was seamless. I would recommend Juan to anyone. He was a pleasure to work with and very fast! Clearly a master of his craft. read more

Juan is really amazing and and does it all. He is very friendly and patient and what I really liked was how easy he was to work with. He let me know what he thinks needs to be done and was not at all pushy...and everything came out perfect! I am definitely recommending him to my friends and family! read more

I love this tailor - they have altered a range of garments for me (denim, expensive suits, dresses, and also 'fast fashion' pieces) and always does a fantastic job. Juan is so so nice and makes you feel welcome and always provides a solution for whatever needs to be fixed, no matter what the item is. They also offer very fair pricing and great turnaround. I recommend Alterations.com to all my friends and colleagues, and will keep coming back for all my alterations! read more

They did a fantastic job, and had my rush alteration done two days earlier than anticipated. And they were so nice and sweet. They even took out sequins, by hand, and to bring my dress in. The dress looks perfect now. Could not have asked for a better experience. Will definitely be back. read more

This place is awesome!! I needed a bridesmaid's dress altered in a day and they fit me in and did a beautiful job!

Excellent service. Easy to find, clean building, fast service. However, we did have to go back 2 times to finish the alteration but afterwards, everything looked great! I didn't get his name but he was professional and very friendly. Only caveat is that it's pretty pricy but I believe you get your money's worth with their lifetime guarantee. I would recommend this place to my friends! read more

This is a great tailor shop! J.D. and his crew have done excellent suit tailoring for me. I have been so impressed that I have brought him several sport coats and suits that were too large in the shoulders, and he has taken them in through the shoulders and tapered the torso, giving me a newly fitted wardrobe. Also the "back office" is totally automated, with an online appointment system, invoice emailed immediately with a tracking number, email reminders, emailed receipt. Very easy. A little pricey but worth it. read more

The service is excellent; I'm thrilled with the results. Even more, the conversation with Mark and Martin added to the pleasant experience. I'll definitely return for all my tailoring. Thank you! read more

Whole team of tailor at your disposal and JD is ever helpful and always stand by their 100% satisfaction guarantee. Also like the fact they will alter the clothing if you gained or lose weight in the future without extra charge for up to I think a year. They seemed very busy each time I went but when it's an urgent job they always manage to find the time to accommodate. read more

I've only used Alterations once but my experience was nothing short of excellent! I purchased a Yelp deal which I had no problem redeeming. They were able to accommodate my last minute appointment request and were even able to get it back to me that same afternoon. I set up a first AM appointment and when the tailor was running just 2 minutes late, he texted me to let me know. Awesome communication! And of course, most importantly, they were able to take a delicate two-layer pair of chiffon pants and hem them perfectly in a matter of hours. I will definitely return. If my follow-up with them is just as impeccable, I'll up my review to 5 Stars. read more
