    I've bought several dresses from here over the years and I love them. She tailored my wedding dress…read moreand did a fantastic job on it. I didn't like the original sleeves and the skirt was a bit short and this fabric genius was able to repurpose my ruffled sleeves to add 2-3 more inches to the bottom hem.

    TL:DR If you are not particular or don't care about your alteration needs and are ok with poor…read morecustomer service then you will be satisfied. If not, read more... I recently had my dress altered and upon picking it up did not look right. After bringing it home I found a few apparent issues 1.The hem was white and my dress is various colors of green and cream (it did not come close to the original hem color and significantly stood out). 2.The corset added was not properly finished and caused terrible bunching in the back. I was truly upset since this dress is for my brother's wedding next week in Asia. I decided to go back and voice my concerns around the quality. When I returned, I let her know that I was disappointed with the quality and was immediately met with a very defensive demeanor. She said that I was mean and does not like working with particular people. She also said there are more important things in this world than to be worried about the color of the hem. She also was very clear to say she spent 3 hours and was angry of my lack of appreciation. To be clear, I paid $120 - this was not a favor, this was a service that did not meet any level of quality. I understand she did spend time on it however, getting defensive versus asking or understanding how we can rectify was never part of the discussion . From a customer perspective, I was shocked at her attitude and inability to accept or acknowledge my general disappointment or the mistakes made. She focused on her time spent on my dress and how I was just too particular. She then continued to let me know that she will not provide any services to me in the future and I am not allowed in her shop again. To be fair, she did offer to fix the zipper but was clear she would do nothing else. To be honest, I did not want her to touch the dress after the interaction and was concerned she might make it worse. I do know how to sew however, I was looking for a professional to make the alterations to my dress. Unfortunately, I did not interact with a professional from both a business and alteration technician/seamstress perspective. With that said, I have spent much of my day re-hemming and correcting the issues associated with the corset she added. I truly believe it is important to support our community and am saddened with the outcome of this experience. I do not recommend and would rather go to Portland than have another encounter like this.

    Always excellent service! Elba, the owner, is a gem. She found money in some of our clothing. She…read moresaved it for us. Very honest. Highly recommend this business.

    What an incredible dry cleaners do not go anywhere else! I…read moredrive here from the coast and I absolutely love it. They had the best prices and they are the sweetest kindest people I've ever met. I hope they'll be here a long time and if they aren't, I hope their kids or family members will take over because this place is a jewel to find. I love the vintage feel it's old-fashioned, which is really cool. An old parking lot with big shady trees and inside beautiful kind people who will dry clean your clothes perfect. I've never seen my clothes so clean. I can't even believe it because the place I went to before was famous for cleaning clothes in an environmental way And then they closed down. I've gone through two dry cleaners that have closed down. Dry cleaners are extremely important and hard to find. Again, I drive from the coast I hope they're here 10 to 15 years because I'll keep coming back and bringing all my beautiful vintage clothing and coats which they clean so perfectly. They even found my bracelets and put them in a small pouch which I was so happy to find because some people would've stole them so they are very honest And they pack your clothes so carefully. The only thing I wish they didn't do is use as much paper on the hangers, but what can I do? I took all the paper off and recycled it and I'm keeping all the hangers and recycling and returning those as well to another dry cleaner nearby since it's kind of far for me. I don't regret the drive. I really love this place and I will be a good customer here for years and years to come.
