I recently stopped in here to see how much it would be to get a gown dry cleaned. Upon arrival the woman greeted me warmly and didn't hesitate to tell me the price once I presented the gown. She quoted me a reasonable price and I was happy to leave the gown to be cleaned. When I picked up the gown I inspected it and it was just as beautiful as it was before with no problems at all. The quality of work matched the price, the turnaround was 3 days and I am happy to have found a place like Elite cleaners. read more

Couldn't figure out for the life of me why one of my pockets was smaller than the other, even though both legs of the pants got the same treatment. Turns out she sewed over the pocket into the pants fabric, rendering one pocket slightly smaller than the other. From 2 stars to 1. Sorry, this quality for the price they ask just doesn't make cents. read more

I'm pretty bad when it comes to dry clean only clothes, but I had a pair of professional trousers that absolutely needed to be dry cleaned. I decided that I would give Elite Cleaners a shot, mostly due to the convenience of its location. I dropped the trousers off on Friday at around 4pm. The lady working gave me a ticket and said they would be ready on Monday after 4pm. I pulled up outside on Monday collected the trousers, paid $5 and was on my way. They came back as expected, same condition I dropped them off in, except lovely and clean and neatly pressed. The prices here can't be argued with. The service was friendly and quick. The location is easily accessible with a little Parking lot out front, or street parking right on Fair Oaks. I think I found my new dry cleaners. read more

I can't say I generally put too much thought into where I bring my dry cleaning, but I will definitely not be bringing it back hear! A few days back I picked up my dry cleaning from Elite, and hung it in my closet bag and all. This morning I pulled out one of my favorite shirts from the bag, only to discover it had three large holes in it. They had been haphazardly stitched together and backed with some sort of stiff fabric patch. Yes it irks me that they shredded my shirt, but honestly my real issue is that they didn't tell me. Rather they just sandwiched it in between my other items in the hopes I wouldn't notice?? Even more upsetting is the fact that they still charged me for dry cleaning this item!?! They clearly knew they wrecked the shirt or they wouldn't have tried to cobble it back together. Bad business ethics. read more

I spend more on dry cleaning in a month than I do on gas because I am terrible at ironing, and I have tried out three other dry cleaners in the South Pas and Alhambra area but they didn't really do a good job (one place even tore a really nice dress shirt) or they took a really long time. I think Elite Cleaners lives up to its name because: -they do a great job on our shirts and pants. our stuff looks crisp and undamaged. -they are super fast, usually 2 or 3 days tops -they open early and close late -they use an environmentally safe cleaning solution (I forget the brand but it's one of the major ones) -the owner is super sweet and friendly The one quirky thing about this place is that they give you an itemized receipt when you drop off your stuff, but it doesn't have your total on it. At all the other dry cleaners I have used in LA, the prices of each garment is printed on the receipt when you drop your stuff off. However, the owner will give you a hard copy of their prices if you ask and there is also a hard copy of the prices taped to the back of the computer monitor. (Prices here are similar to other cleaners in the area). read more

I don't do dry-clean, but I often need tailoring and sewing. Elite offers fair prices for tailoring--the best that I have found in the area. They are also very friendly every time I've stopped in. I recently brought in a curtain panel that I bought from Target and had cut in half to use in two of my small bungalow windows. I just wanted to have the bottom hemmed so it wouldn't unravel. Didn't want to pay much because I only spent $10 on the whole panel. They were very reasonable in charging me only $7 to hem it. I had previously brought it into a tailor on Los Robles in San Marino and the young woman working there wanted to charge me the same price as the other huge living room curtains that were thicker and about 5x as large. I told her I just want a simple half inch hem along the bottom of the curtain (with both panels this was only a four foot long hem), yet she still wanted $14. They also wanted a week to do the hem, whereas Elite had it back in two days. I'll be taking my sewing/tailoring to Elite for now on. read more

My whole family uses this cleaners for alterations, and none of us ever leaves disappointed or needing anything else done following their work. That might not seem like a big deal, but when you are on the short side in regards to height, it can be amazing the difference in quality of clean alterations that don't require further straightening, or detriment to the material (if a delicate pant) We don't have much in the way of dry cleaning, but what we do, we trust Elite Cleaners completely. Over the last few decades, we have had our share of dry cleaning horror stories, but not here. I can't speak for other people, but I can speak for myself and my family, and we could not be more satisfied with Elite Cleaners read more

I recently moved to the area and knew I would have to shop around for a dry cleaner who could also do repairs. What was very important to are people who care about their work and the clothes they are entrusted with. I found this here at Elite. I started off small. A few dress shirts that had gone far too long without dry cleaning as well as some pants. A few days later I arrived to pickup my clothes and drop a few more. And I was instantly impressed with the pressing and attention to detail on my items. They looks and felt incredible. And clean. This mom and pop business rally works hard to deliver the best product to their customers at fair and market rate prices. (Side note I've had things get lost and damaged over the years so I always have that in the back of my mind.) No longer! And now I'm bringing in some heirloom pieces for cleaning and storage. As well as all my hemming and repair. Thank you elite! I'm so happy. read more

I hardly Yelp unless the service is amazing and has been consistent which they've always delivered. Don't hesitate stopping in! read more

I needed a dress for New Year's Eve repaired that had missing sequins along the front bodice, underarms, and sides. It also needed to be shortened by an inch. A helpful woman gave me an estimate and got the work done within a three day turnaround. She had taken care of everything I needed, the dress looked good, and was ready when I picked it up. The price was reasonable and the service was friendly. I'll be back! read more

I came here for alterations. The lady was super nice. I appreciated her having me try on the pants first and explaining the different ways she could tailor it, and which ways would be more expensive. We both thought the less expensive method would work just fine. I was happy w the final estimate (less expensive than another alterations shop I had just been to), and she promised to have it the next day even though I said it was no rush. They have a great work ethic, because I think I saw her start working on it even while I was pulling out of my parking spot! The work she did was great. I'm really happy and will come here again! read more

I have tried taking my clothes to so many places in the San Gabriel Valley for alterations, but never have I gone back to the same place twice. I took two dresses here to be shortened last week, the owner was super nice, and the dresses were altered perfectly and quickly! This will definitely be the only place I take all my alternations from now on. read more

My go-to place to launder my dress shirts. I'm always satisfied with the result: shirts come out crisp and those stubborn collar stains are gone. I've also had alterations to suits and blazers. Equally satisfied. read more

They do their best to accommodate your needs, from getting things done quicker than usual, etc. I used to work there and they are very anal about quality of service. They don't let you slack off at the expense of quality! read more

I realized my regular dry cleaner was overpriced. I found this place steps from my apt, and I'm very pleased. They're professional. They're reasonably priced for dry cleaning. It's obviously a mom and pop business, and I'm happy to support them. So glad I found them. Just an update - They did an amazing job getting stains out of a linen skirt that I thought would never come out! So far I've been here 3 times, and I'm really happy with all aspects of their service. read more

I have been to Elite cleaners a handful of times now and I have never been disappointed. Song is so sweet and does a beautiful job on my difficult alterations. read more

This place is super fast with alterations and also very accommodating. I took a bridesmaid dress in for hemming and making it a bit smaller in the breast area. She tried her best and making it as tight in me as possible but it was still loose so she altered it again without any additional charge and it was ready before the wedding. The only bad thing is that the dress was still a little loose on me but that just might because I'm so tiny. read more

They are absolutely amazing. Here's something they didn't have to do for me but did..and didnt charge me... I had my evening dress for nye dry cleaned at another cleaner but the dress came back a mess with static everywhere on nye day. They couldn't help me so I came to Elite Cleaners and they took care of me. Literally right away without any hesitation they steamed my dress and patted down the lining with LOTION. And it worked! Point is, they took care of me and that says alot about the company. read more

Ahh I love this place. This owner is always cheaper than the other cleaners in the area. I bring all my alteration and dry cleaning here now. Quality work and great prices! read more

I came to Elite Cleaners to get the wrinkles out of my bridesmaid dress. They steam pressed it into a non-wrinkled state, had it ready the the next morning (the dress was dropped off afternoon the day before), and charged me $7.20. In addition to reasonable prices they had friendly service and two parking spaces in front of the store for easy in-and-out access. read more

I brought in a tunic top and was charged the cost of a dress, plus additional fees because it was silk and had embroidery. So, for one top, I was charged more than the advertised cost of a two piece suit, 50% more than the advertised cost of a dress, and 3x as much as the advertised cost of a blouse, which is what the item is. Haven't gotten my item back yet so I am not sure of their actual performance in cleaning, but needless to say, I won't be using them again. read more

I guess I'm the opposite of Jiali G. I love this place. They have been open for 100 years and they are honest and helpful each time I've been in. I trusted them with my daughter's christening outfit and my husbands wedding clothes. Reasonable and fast. Parking can be tricky during peek hours but street parking is available. read more

I've been going to Elite Cleaners for about 5 years and have always found it dependable. A year ago or so Ms. Kim bought the place and it's become even better. She is always there, very attentive and goes out of her way to make sure you get your clothes when you need them. I had a pair of pants with a small tear on the seam and took them to be cleaned. She fixed it without even being asked. She is good! Go there. You'll love it. Tom read more
