When it comes to all my tailoring needs, Dats the place to go. Family owned business. They take pride in what they do and a really good job.

Horrible experience. I waited outside the shop for 15 minutes after knocking, ringing the doorbell,…read moreand even calling the shop. This was a few hours after the posted opening time for the shop. I am not sure why the door was locked and why no one came to answer the door despite being able to physically see people inside the shop. Once I was able to speak with someone, I tried to explain that I had two broken straps on a dress that needed to be repaired but the tailor did not understand what I was saying. There was a pretty strong language barrier here but I came prepared with photos of the dress straps and how they should be placed. The tailor laughed and said he could not help me, then went back to work on another clients clothing without saying anything else to me. I was able to go down the street to Thimbelina and they quickly served me and said it was an easy fix, only charging me $20. Overall very frustrated with the service I received at Thu's, huge waste of time.

Thu has been cutting my suits for about 40 years. Before he opened his own shop he was the in-house…read moretailor at Rubensteins, and at Weinsteins (back in the '80s when they sold men's suits). He does beautiful work. Once you've worn a suit that Thu has fitted, anything else feels like you're wearing a horse blanket. I am curious, if not doubtful, of the reviews which refer to Thu as unfriendly or "The Soup Nazi" of tailors. In the many years I've known him Thu has always been, without fail, polite, soft-spoken, almost shy in demeanor. I could get suits fitted elsewhere cheaper and many men's stores include alterations in the price of the suit. I always decline and take the suit uncut to Thu - the result is always worth it.

Because I was ill with COVID and though I'm now negative, I am still enduring a long recovery. I…read morehadn't been able to do my laundry for 3 months. I looked into local services and this one seemed legit. I had like 50lbs of clothes for them to do. They could never give me an exact time for pickup, not even like "10am-11am" just "sometime before 11am." So that was a little annoying. The driver who came to pick up the clothes wasn't wearing a mask and didn't distance from me. I wore a mask of course. It just sucks when your first encounter with a place, right now, is of them not using PPE. The 1 star is because they did a good job cleaning and folding my clothes. I thought getting stains out was part of their service and they didn't really do that, though. It was an expensive service, but I knew what I was getting into. I paid with my card over the phone and in that call I also asked if they could have their drivers wear masks for interacting with customers. They said okay as though it were a special request from me and not you know...a common sense reaction to the deadly pandemic wreaking havoc on our bodies, families, and lives. When the driver dropped my clothes off, again I was not given anything clearer than "before 11am." I missed his call around 9 and tried to give him a call back but didn't hear back for over an hour. He didn't leave a message, not text not voicemail. When he called back he told me he'd just left my clothes--mind you, these are ALL the clothes I own--on the front porch...of the apartment building I live in...on a very busy thoroughfare. Packages and stuff get stolen off our porch all the time. So I couldn't believe all my clothes were just sitting there. I ran downstairs and thank the lord all my clothes were there. He had put them in two giant bags, each about 25lbs I guess, really unwieldy. I am very weakened from having fought a deadly disease for months and couldn't carry them upstairs myself. I had to divide them up and then carry them. I had two asthma attacks during that. The clothes themselves are looking good so far. I e-mailed them to let them know my disappointment about the lack of masks and how alarming it had been to just have all my clothes left on a porch without even a text message or voicemail. They responded initially saying that the driver should have left a message and were sorry he didn't, then reversed course and claimed he did. They also totally don't take masking seriously. Ultimately pretty rude and shitty experience. Try to go elsewhere I'd say.

I needed to have a dress dry cleaned in 24 hours for an important event and I dropped it off that…read moremorning at 9:30 and they had it back to me by 2pm that afternoon. I was elated! I'm having an alteration done that I'm picking up on Wed so I will do a follow up review after that.
