    Elegant Tailor and Cleaners: A Very Long but Honest Review with Important Details I rarely write reviews, but I felt the truth about this establishment needs to be shared with the general public. This review may be long, but it's necessary to explain how this business operates and my experiences with them. If you want a quick view, pictures speak for themselves... First, a little background about myself to provide perspective. I am a husband and father, with a credit score of around 820+ for many decades, reflecting my financial responsibility. I have been working in Fortune 500 companies in insurance and banking (with some consulting) for the past 30 years, living in cities all over the United States. These jobs require business attire as the main dress code. I recently moved to Orlando and was looking for a local tailor. I have been working with tailors for suits and business clothing for all these years. My longest relationship with a master tailor lasted over 10 years until he retired in his 80s. He then recommended a friend who was also very good, and I stayed with him for many years before moving to Florida. I have owned suits costing from a few hundred dollars to over a thousand dollars. I understand quality, and price has never been an issue for me if the quality is there. For example, I own several Alden shoes that have lasted over 20 years, even though they cost $600+ per pair when I was on a starting salary. Quality is more cost-effective than buying cheaper shoes every year. I understand good professional relationships, ethics, and trust. My lawyer has been with me since my 20s, my mechanic since I was 16, and I have good friends from kindergarten and Sunday school to this day. Bottom line: I understand quality, value, and ethics very well. In my experience with tailors, I have NEVER asked about the price first; I always focused on fitting the suit to my body. I did the same with Toan Doan of Elegant Custom Tailors and Cleaners, as well as some other local tailors. Price was an afterthought. I started asking several local Orlando tailors for fittings and alterations to find the best one in the area. Elegant Cleaners and Tailors was one of them. Before diving into details, here's some background on this business from public records anyone can find. Elegant Cleaners and Tailors is owned by TDOAN.LLC, a Florida limited liability corporation owned by Toan Hee Doan and Hoang T. Nguyen. Toan Hee Doan also owns HUNG'S CUSTOM TAILOR SHOP, INC. at 643 N. Mills Ave in Orlando, with Kevin M. Boerner listed as the VP. Before Elegant Tailors and Cleaners, Toan and Hoang owned MAGIC MASTER TAILOR, INC. from 2003 until it was dissolved in 2013. In 2014, TDOAN.LLC was created, leading to the establishment of Elegant Tailors and Cleaners. Toan seems to outsource the cleaning side of the business. 1st Job: March 21, 2024 I had a wedding to attend and a brand new suit with real working buttons (surgeon cuffs). The shoulders fit well, but the rest needed alterations. We discussed fitting the entire suit and pants. No price was discussed; quality was my priority. Toan fitted it, marked what he needed, and gave me a couple of weeks to pick up. When I picked it up, the suit was better, but not taken in as requested. At the wedding, I noticed the pants were uncomfortable. Upon returning, I informed Toan that the back seam was off by over an inch. First red flag: Toan showed me his pants, which had the same issue! He tried upselling additional alterations for better fit at extra cost, despite the initial goal being a complete fitting. The original cost was $298, the highest I've ever paid for fitting an off-the-rack suit. Despite this, the suit was never properly taken in, and some issues were only partially fixed. 2nd Job: April 15, 2024 (2nd Chance) I gave Toan a pair of travel pants to alter the waist and length. He upsold taking in the legs as well. The cost was $74.55. The waist was good, but the legs were too thin and didn't break on my shoes properly. His suggestion was poorly executed. 3rd Job: May 10, 2024 (3rd Strike) For my final chance, I brought in a full canvas jacket by Oxxford Clothes. The blazer fit well; I just wanted the waist taken in. Toan suggested taking in the shoulders, a higher-skilled job. He quoted $191.70. When I picked it up, the jacket was tight, and the sleeves were too short. One sleeve lining was not sewn together. Toan admitted the sleeves shortened because he took in the shoulders, a basic tailoring principle he failed to account for. He tried to charge me $45 for fixing his mistake. After much argument, he told me to never come back. Toan seems to believe he deserves top-notch pricing with no mistakes after one fitting. However, he charges the highest prices but delivers the poorest quality, with unethical business practices. Many other tailors in the area offer better quality, prices, and ethics. I do not recommend.

    I took in my wedding dress and another dress for alterations. The prices are reasonable and the owner is super nice and helpful. He measures and adjusts alterations as needed. Service is fast and you tell them when you need it and they will get it done! I told my bridesmaid to come here and they all have had good experiences! They also do dry cleaning! Ask for their prices! The shop is located directly across from the courthouse in the same shopping center as Dunkin' Donuts. You can easily find street parking one street before you reach the shop. There is 30 minute parking meters right in front of the shop.

    Perfectly tailored suit I took a vintage suit in to have it tailored and he did an amazing job. I also had him tailor 2 shirts and a pair of pants for me. He did a great job on those too. I can't wait to have him make a suit for me. Bill T

    Toan Doan is Orlando's best tailor. Toan altered three suits and multiple shirts to fit my measurements. I have brought suits from Macy's that hardly fit my frame, and Toan makes them look as if they were custom-made. Most importantly he is kind, ethical, and professional in all of his dealings. He is a must visit. Below is a photo of his latest work.

    I'm new to the area and have been in search of a good dry cleaners and a place that does alterations. Yelp to the rescue! I immediately came across Elegant Tailor & Cleaners. I read the reviews and the feedback was pretty good. I hit the "request a quote" button and told them what items I wanted to bring in and they responded fairly quickly with a price. That same day I went in and dropped my item off. I was greeted by a friendly gentleman who provided me with my dry cleaning slip and told me it would be ready Wednesday (dropped them off on Monday). Came in today after work and picked my item up and was greeted by the same gentleman. My 1 pair of pants were $6.74. I'll be returning. I liked the location and the friendly staff. It was very clean inside as well.

    I've brought my work clothes, my bridesmaids' dresses, and my wedding rehearsal dress here for alterations. They are always done quickly and perfectly! The owner is incredibly nice and professional. I still need to try their dry cleaning services. The shop is always very clean!

    Fixed the stretched fabric that was pulling across bust and also the lines on hips.

    They lost dress pants that went with a suit. No apology and they never offered any compensation,…read morewould never use them again. Make sure you get a ticket clearly defining what you dropped off. They don't like to provide one.

    I feel this place needs a warning sign which is why I'm sharing my experience…read more I've never used a service like this, but when I was sick for almost a month I decided I needed to. They were cheaper and closer than another place I called so I packed up 3 large garbage bags of laundry and when they picked it up, they said it would probably be around $40. They make you put your credit card on file so I had no say when they actually charged me $61. First red flag. I was so happy to see everything nicely folded and in order, I didn't care they didn't follow my request to throw all my underwear into a pillowcase and not to fold it. However, when it got a little cold, I went to get my green robe and couldn't find it. I told the guy, he apologized and ran it over immediately. Still, not feeling well, another day I decide to nap and use my favorite blanket. Guess what? Not there. This time I wrote the guy and I said, you better search all around your laundromat and bring me everything you've kept or I will be really angry and you don't want to see me angry because I'm Irish. He immediately brought back my blanket AND an entirely other bag filled with all my towels! I can't decide if it's incompetence, thievery, or negligence, but I would suggest you only use that place if you have to. I still can't find another bathrobe, but possibly donated it so letting it go. Asked for and got my tip back because service that bad didn't deserve it. Proceed with caution

    I have used them for many years and I had no problem until recently dropped in a designer sweater (…read moreLike Louise Vuitton, Chanel, Fendi, Gucci ETC level) and they shrunk it. They tried telling me I needed to go back to the store and tell them it was a defective ( although they have cleaned this several times before for years now). Anyway they said, they are the ones that have to accept responsibility and gave me a "free" credit of $60. This ONLY happened after a lot of back and forth from me and after all of that, that was all they were willing to help me out with. I DO NOT recommend this place for expensive garments, they do not know how to handle them. DO NOT BRING DESIGNER ITEMS HERE

    To be fair, all of the reviews for City Dry Cleaners are 2-7 years old. Give these folks a chance…read more I believe they have new owner/management post COVID-19;2020. I have been actively dropping off my clothes here on a weekly basis for the past 2 years. Before that, I was hoping around downtown/Mills 50 trying out several places...in my humble opinion, most of the competition in town is overpriced and service is underwhelming. That is, until I stumbled upon City Dry Cleaners. It's quiet shop, parking lot is also usually slow or empty, which I love (considering just the busy lots all over E COLONIAL). The women inside is kind and always greets me with a warm smile. Prices are GREAT, you pay up front and you wait anywhere between 2-4 days for your clothes to be ready. They'll call you, but in addition to that...you also get a blue ticket with your items/date printed on it. If you don't have your ticket, a phone number works. My clothes are always free of stains, pressed and all around super fresh. I usually drop off my clothes within the appropriate turn around time to have them back to me. Therefore, I have never attempted to try out their next-day service. However, a dear friend of mine uses the service regularly and is over the moon satisfied. They refer everyone over to the Filipino women next door for alternations (FYI, she's wonderful and very talented - give her your business).
