High quality suits at a solid price, and I'm fairly certain the tailor is so good he could turn a burlap bag into a tuxedo if you asked him to. The guys who work there are super helpful too. I would honestly skip the department stores and Men's Wearhouses of the world and come here. read more

Great service and unique selection. It really is the best place to go to get suits tailored.

Anatoly's has been a fixture on Piedmont Avenue for years now and Tony is without a doubt one of the finest tailors I've met in my 20 years on the West Coast. His prices are very reasonable and his work is impeccable. There are plenty of people out there who have sewing machines and sew a straight line but Tony's an artist! I've had suits altered, pants turned into shorts, even a jean jacket made into a work of art with bits and pieces of T-shirts I've collected over the years. Best of all, Tony sees not only the fabric but the fabric as it will look on your body. He makes suggestions you couldn't have considered without his experience and the results are always first-class. read more

This is a great tailor and men's clothing store. Definitely a store with old-time excellent customer service. Like another reviewer, it had been a few year since I was in the store. But with a new job and a few extra pounds, I needed a number of suits quickly. Even though I came to the store close to closing time, they stayed to fit me and had the first two suits expertly tailored the next day. Anatoly's prices are outstanding considering the quality of their clothes. Suits are moderately priced and much better than Macy's at the same price point. And it would be insulting to compare Anatoly's to the big box men's clothing stores -- there is no comparison. Anatoly's has always done great package deals - a shirt, neck tie or belt thrown in for free or a significantly reduced price. They even had a new (to me) points system that rewards your purchases. I'm looking forward to a free custom-made shirt I earned by buying a number of suits. There is also a watch repair service in the store. The gentleman embraces old-world values of craftsmanship and honor. My wife and I brought in 6 or 8 watches for batteries and other repairs. He quickly serviced everything, and did not charge us for some of the minor repairs. He brought one or two watches back to life we thought would be lost. This is a welcoming store to all who enter - I highly recommend the staff, their service and great clothing. I challenge anyone to show me a better tailor shop. read more

Fair and honest, good QPR, great tailor. If you want to buy a glued (fused) suit from a big company that spends megabucks on branding (i.e. the thing that keeps your attention away from the inferior quality of their garments), shop elsewhere. For your $800-1000, you will get a glued together suit made in China. These brands include everything at Mens Wearhouse minus 2 (Hickey Freeman (which you can buy for $369 on sale if you can find one in your size at the Livermore, CA Saks Off Fifth) and another), Hugo Boss (minus their top end line), Armani, everything in Macy's and Bloomingdales, everything but one line in Brooks Brothers, etc. You'll pay $1000-1500 for the same construction in a suit that Anatoly (Tony) carries for a fraction of the price (though he does carry cheaper assembly line fused suits at a great price). I have personally seen one suit line he carries at a well-known menswear store in Walnut Creek for literally 3x the cost. I saw the same suit I purchased from him in J. Barbaro in San Jose for $1000 (that store is making at least $750 profit). He will tailor a suit to fit perfectly and help you every step of the way. Like another Yelper referenced, Tony will fight for what he believes is best, and always with good reason. I wanted a bit more tailoring taking in the sides of my jacket under the arms to achieve the look of a modern, Italian fit; however, with the suit I chose, it would have significantly reduced my arm movement. I bought a half-canvassed suit under the Mattarazi Uomo label, which is the same as M.Valentino that TheWizardofAahs online on AskAndyAboutClothes (AAAC) has successfully sold for years. It is vetted by people on AAAC and StyleForums who know tailoring and fine menswear. It is a no-name brand also carried under various other names, but It is my opinion that you cannot find a better suit firsthand for your money in a solid business color without a ridiculous amount of work. The suit looks as good as a $1500 Canali from Nordstrom (which, really, is a middle-of-the-road suit quality-wise, but with superior fabric). I recommend Tony highly from his expertise in tailoring to his ability to help an informed customer. His sewing is top-notch, and I had a decent amount of work done on my jacket. Hint: he doesn't like to bargain. You will get the lowest price if you ask for it. Once. If he tells you his best price, that is going to be it. I know this because I heavily researched value-branded half-canvassed suits before stumbling upon his store and his pricing is quite reasonable. I watched multiple customers whose cultural backgrounds disallow them from his type of honesty ("this is my best price"). They ended up paying literally hundreds of dollars more for my exact same suit, all because they couldn't buy something without bargaining him down and pissing him off. Their loss. I've had many suits tailored by various tailors over the years. Tony's work is the best. Highly recommended unless you are shopping for a fully-canvassed suit. read more

This is THE shop for all your mens wear needs. The crew here set me up with everything I could possibly need and I could not be happier. My suits fit great after the alterations and are still looking fly after a couple years. Recently picked up a sweet blazer that gets compliments whenever I wear it! Go see K he will get you set up proper read more

Anatoly is a guy with an accent I can't place, who cares about men's fashion and seems like he'd be good in a fight if it came to that. He's the kind of guy I want tailoring my suits. read more

I needed to have a dress mended, and the place down the street was closed. So I decided to give these guys a try. I needed a rush job, so they said I needed to pay up front. It was Thursday, and I had forgotten my wallet, so we agreed that I would come in to pay the next day and though they were very busy, they would try to fix it for me by Saturday. Well, life got in the way and I never made it in on Friday. When I came in Saturday afternoon, I expected that my dress would not be fixed. But I was wrong. My dress was already repaired. They did a beautiful job! Undetectable unless you really know what to look for. These gentlemen were very nice as well. I can't recommend Anatoly's enough. Thanks guys! read more

I found Anatoly's when I moved to Oakland 3 years ago. I was looking all over for a good tailor and discovered them through Yelp. I first brought some pants in to be hemmed and Tony turned them around quickly and altered them perfectly. Next I brought in some shirts I wanted tapered for a more tailored look, and Tony also executed those alterations perfectly. Soon enough I became a regular. Tony's alterations have meant that I could reimagine my wardrobe - his work has enabled me to reinvent pieces of clothing and subsequently prevented me from getting rid of old items and replacing them. All in all I've had Tony hem pants, take in shirts and jackets, sew new buttons on my pea coat, fit a classic overcoat that was two sizes too big for me, taper jeans, adjust sleeve lengths on suit jackets, and even tailor a pair of sweat pants. His ability to perfectly tailor every piece of clothing I brought to him convinced my wife that she should bring her clothes to Tony for alterations. He took in the bust line on an expensive dress for her and even redid the lining of her favorite coat. Beyond all of Tony's technical prowess, he and the guys in the shop are all as friendly and helpful as can be. Their customer service is second to none. I appreciate all of them so much that when it came time to purchase a suit for my wedding I decided I had to purchase it through them. I bought a beautiful blue plaid suit that Tony made minor adjustments to. The suit came out awesome and it's easily my favorite of the suits I own. I've also purchased shirts and sport coats from Anatoly's. All the guys in the shop have an eye for style and have never lead me astray. I'm sure that I will continue to find more items to bring to Tony to alter. Similarly, I'm sure I'll find more pieces in the store to add to my wardrobe. If you're looking for a tailor, look no further. Tony is the best I've found. read more

I have been doing business with Anatoly for over 10 years. During that time I have probably purchased over 30 suits and a variety of casual and sports wears etc. What is most impressive is that Anatoly continues to provide a superior product at reasonable prices. He even fits my son who is a 4x. Anatoly is fashion forward, always at the fore front of the latest styles.

My friend recommended Anatoly's for a suit for my new job. I must say they do excellent tailoring as well as provide the best styling tips on my choice of suits. I got a great deal on ties to go along with my suits. Great selection, fine pricing, and Anatoly is just the guy you want assisting you with your suit needs. read more

Great service, got a suit that I like, that I think actually looks good on me, and at a good value, all completed very quickly - found something in my size and was out the door same day. Thanks, Anatoly! read more

Anatoly express altered my tux pants for a party the next night, picked it up the next day hours before the party, took it home and tried them on again, they seemed a little too long, called him up said so, he told me bring them back and he fixed them to perfection because I actually brought the shoes I was gonna wear to the party, and this was one hour before the party started! I gave him a little extra money, but I just think it was very nice and great for him to have done that for me, I don't think any other place would've done that, because he seemed pretty busy otherwise, and I was very happy and looked great for the party, whereas if he didn't do that I would've been uncomfortable and the tux would've looked a little off. Thanks much Anatoly! 5 stars. read more

If you don't accept what he tells you without asking questions, you'll be turned away. That's what happened to me when my husband and I went to him for a difficult tailoring job on a vintage tuxedo. He's egotistical, with a heavy dose of chauvinism - as I suspect he objected to the fact that the questions were coming from a woman. Ironically, my questions were educated questions based on recommendations from vintage clothing experts, a lot of research, and the advice of a much better tailor than Anatoly. So, if you are a guy and you are interested in doing exactly what Anatoly says, you'll be fine - though you may get an inferior alterations job in the end. read more

We just picked up our suits from Anatoly's and I have to say that they are great! Tony made what could have been a shopping chore into an extremely pleasant experience, and he really knows his suits and fabrics. The prices were great (love the sales!) and his alterations really made our suits fit perfectly, with a very flattering shape. We got great ties to go with our suits as well! I highly recommend Anatoly's! read more

I've been buying my suits at Nordstrom for over 20 years....until yesterday. I had heard of Anatoly's through a friend so decided to check them out before buying my next suit. I was greeted by Kirill who was extremely friendly and helpful. I let him know my budget and that I was looking for a suit to wear to a formal wedding. I was immediately shown several really nice styles and cuts. Tony, the master tailor, came out and also suggested a few suits that would work well with my larger frame. I couldn't help but notice that even though Kirill and Tony were the only two in the store, every customer that walked in was greeted warmly and received the same excellent attention that I was getting. Kirill made it a point to show me suits within my budget, and never once made an attempt to try and get me to stretch my limits. That alone was so refreshing and made my experience so easy and pressure free. After I made my decision on my suit, Tony took my measurements and Kirill rang me up. They even told me to pick out a tie to go with my new suit as a thanks for doing business with them. What really sealed the deal for me, was after learning that I lived more than 30 minutes from the shop, Kirill offered to deliver my suit to my home when my alterations were complete. I'm not going to take him up on that, but who does that???? Incredible customer service, an amazing inventory, and very good prices for all budgets. Thank you Kirill and Tony for a great transaction and experience. I will most definitely be returning and referring friends, family and colleagues to Anatoly's! read more

K saved me from looking like a schmuck on my wedding day and earned a customer for life. I never need a suit for work, so with my wedding approaching, I got two suits I really liked at Macy's. I did the free in store tailoring for the suit I planned to wear on my wedding day (and it was actually still $50 at Macy's). The tailor there cut the pants way too short without any tapering- so they looked like some horrible mashup of Hammer pants, bell bottoms, and slacks. With 2 weeks to the wedding, K tailored everything perfectly, even with a few days to spare. I felt totally confident being on display in front of my nearest and dearest. I'm supremely grateful. read more

Had an amazing experience buying my first suit from Anatoly's. Ended up buying two suits because of the quality and excellent tailoring. Kirill and Anatoly were very friendly and professional. I asked for a minor adjustment with the tailoring and they had no problem making the adjustments to ensure I was satisfied. Kirill also provided helpful tips on color schemes for shirt and ties that would match well with the suit. Also, Kirill made sure the alterations were done within the same week so I would have the suits by the weekend to attend a wedding. Overall, it was a great experience and highly recommend shopping there. read more

I bought a fitted suit here for my wedding. I was very pleased with the service I received - friendly, helpful, and straightforward. Very efficient too. I would definitely use them again. read more

I highly recommend Anatoly for his first class workmanship, reasonable prices, and flex-ability. He knows his craft, is willing to do what is requested but will let you know if something doesn't look right. I have been very satisfied with his work on several of my suits that needed to be refitted. He even sewed a button on one of my shirts and didn't to charge me. Great job! read more

I needed a new suit for my new career (academic), and I dreaded going suit shopping and had foolishly waited until the last minute. Fortunately for me, I had Anatoly's. I went into the store at around 11:30AM and left by 12PM having bought a new suit. Then, I returned the next day because I had left something in the shop, and I found that my alterations had been finished two days early! I was very impressed with Anatoly - he knows his stuff, and he's very personable. He has a great selection, with a wide range of prices, so you'll definitely find something you're looking for. He'll do the alterations quickly, and when I bought my suit he threw in a really nice tie for free. If you live around Oakland, visit the shop. Anatoly's the best. read more

Anatoly is great, and the staff are a super friendly bunch. More importantly, my wedding suit looks phenomenal... In fact, Anatoly knew better than I. I was concerned about how closely the suit fit me at first, but now I wouldn't go with anything else! Many thanks to Anatoly. read more

Excellent service. I had an expensive jacket I needed tailored. He knew exactly how I wanted jacket tailored without me having to explain a lot. Will definitely bring all my nice suits here from now on. read more

Kirill and the team at Anatoly's did an outstanding job for my wedding. The process was done smooth and efficient. The last thing you want when planning your wedding is for there to be any hiccups. With Anatoly's there is no worries, they know their business well and know how to deliver. My groomsmen looked sharp and most importantly my wife loved the suits. Thank you Kirill and team, you really did an amazing job. I recommend you to everyone I know. read more

The guys working here are great and know their craft. They deliver what and when they say they will. Highly recommended especially for women looking for suits. read more

I have a killer pinstripe dress but the bust tended to gape open an inch too much. Anatoly was able to add a snap within minutes. He was professional and expedient. read more

A very nice gentleman who gives you great advice on your clothes! I had the yelp discount and this was definitely worth it! Now, my clothes fit really well. The pricing was not really too bad either. read more

Top-notch service, very amiable and knowledgeable shopkeep. This place came highly recommended from a family member and long-term customer, so when I moved to the area I knew there was only one place to take my suit for last-minute downsizing prior to an important interview. The service was prompt, professional, and spot-on, and very reasonably priced. I needed a rush job, and was happily accommodated. I will definitely be back for future clothing pieces I need altered. read more

Had my suit tailored there; great work and excellent service. Any time I need a tailor I will go here.

Had him alter 5 of my sport coats to give them a more "tailored fit". I was very happy with the work. You can tell mens clothing is his specialty and the price was reasonable. The coats now have a great slim fit and I give his alteration work 5 stars. He also has some very nice sport coats and suits there, they are not inexpensive as the quality is very good. read more

I brought my beloved 1960's vintage military trousers in to have the waist and seat taken in. They fit like a glove now! I literally can't even tell they've had any work done, the alteration is so perfect. they took the seams apart and re-sewed everything exactly how it was. I'll be bringing some vintage Levi's in for the same treatment soon! read more

Very helpful for the sartorially challenged, such as myself. They helped me select a great suit and accessories, and expertly tailored it, all for a very reasonable price. It might have cost a little bit more than a big chain store, but the knowledgeable staff and excellent service is well worth the small premium. I wish there were more stores like this, in the age of Internet and big box shopping. read more

LOVE Anatoly's! I've been going to him for all my dress alterations. You can call me the real life 27 dresses, I swear my part time job is being a bridesmaid! Needless to say, I need dresses altered constantly. Anatoly always provides quick and professional service. I stop in for a quick measurement in my dress and he has it completed within a week. He's done it all for me- hemming, taking in, to completely changing the look of the dress! Prices are beyond reasonable especially for the turnaround time. I've shopped around a lot for alterations, but not after I found Anatoly! He's my go to for every wedding now. Anatoly and everyone there is always so sweet, they make me feel like family. I highly recommend them for alterations! Update: Anatoly came through once again! I was recently in a wedding where the bride basically asked us to have the dress remade all so she could have us in a certain color that was impossible to find. Well the MOH offered alterations through a family friend for a dirt cheap price. Per usual, I went straight to Anatoly without hesitation. I got fitted and the quote was quite a bit higher. Despite that, I am loyal to Anatoly's and went with them. Come wedding day, ALL DAY every bridesmaid was pulling and re-pinning their dresses to keep it up...except for me. By the reception, some girls were just sticking pins everywhere without caring how it'd look out of frustration that they had to keep messing with their dresses and there was still the whole night ahead. Needless to say, the higher quote was more than worth it. You can't go wrong here folks, this man knows his stuff!!! read more

Anatoly did it again!! got a suit altered in 1 day becuase i needed the rush job. He gave me a good deal on the suit with alterations included . read more

Anatoly knows his suits and I'm very happy with my recent purchase, the first suit I've bought in years. You get what you pay for, and my suit is awesome! He's friendly, honest and doesn't take too long to make alterations. I'll be back soon! read more

Dropped by here to pick up a small gift for a friend. Quality merchandise, friendly staff. I mentioned the Yelp deal when I went to check out and was informed that it's for tailoring services only. However, the associate was kind enough to give me a sizable discount anyway. Awesome, thanks guys! read more

I got a suit for my wedding and... basically this place is the best place to buy new suits for all occasions. Its a father son team. They do not rip you off. They are locally family owned. They are not a chain. They have great prices, that often beat those chains. They are super smart. No pressure sales. They go out of their way to help you. The tailoring is also super professional. One of my favorite businesses/ retail shops that i have ever experienced in my life. I am know recommending this place to all of my friends including my buddy who is getting married in August whom I am over from SF. read more
