Stopped into Escobar Tailors to get fitted for a Tuxedo today. Wedding is in another state so I had a simple little card to complete and I was in and out in no time. Overall a good experience - the owner and his assistant got me the information I needed and no charge... Just a firm handshake. This place had that old fashioned neighborhood tailor type feel, and I appreciated that. They seemed to be running some good specials on suits, too, so next time I am in need I will be back. read more

I went here based on the amazing yelp reviews. I had a skirt where the hem had fallen out, due to the thread unraveling, so I brought it in to get rehemmed. When they told me it would cost $30 to rehem the skirt, I had to pass. At that rate I rather spend a little more and buy a brand new skirt. ---- I really appreciate that the owner reached out to me, and have updated my review. read more

I had an online rental for a tuxedo and I needed to get some quality measurements for the tux. Naturally I turned to Yelp for help and was pleased with my selection of Escobar Tailors! The woman who helped us was very kind and knew exactly what she was doing and it was only $15 to get all the suit measurements done. I will definitely be coming back here for future needs. read more

I will never go here again. I wanted to get a new elastic waist ban for my pajamas and a silk light cover up stitched and for those two, this shop was going to charge me $70.00. That is highway robbery! Hower, I went to my local cleaners, Park Place Cleaners and for the two items mentioned, will only be $25.00. Unless you have money to throw away , I suggest going somewhere else! I give them no stars!!!! Because I have to select one star! read more

Continued from my first review (couldn't fit all into one) Btw - I got my tux back from the other tailor already. It's awesome and exactly what I wanted :) Pricing - Escobar is the first tailor I ever been too. So I was not armed with standard industry prices on tailoring when I went in. After finding a new tailor and calling around a few places, it seems Escobar Tailoring prices are around 5% to 10% higher than most other tailors. Craftsmanship - Awesome, I couldn't even tell any of the garments had been tampered with. Shop - Pretty nice, it's not big or fancy but has a decent sized show room and 2 fitting rooms. Appears to have plenty of suits in stock. Lots of the suits he said are $400 but he has a big 50% off sign so majority of them are $200. Location - Nice, its right behind the parking garage in front of Century theatres and next to the old Borders book store. My only gripe is that he couldn't give me what I wanted when he initially told me anything is possible. However, it is my mistake for not having him pin down everything the way I wanted before I left (tailor noob). So I give him the benefit of the doubt there but when I told him after that it wasn't what I wanted and he said he couldn't do anything is what really disappointed me. He said it wouldn't look good if he did it my way and talked me out of doing it but it shouldn't be about what he thinks looks good, it should be about what the paying customer wants. I'm sure he's great with clients that will like their clothes tailored differently than I do. If you like to wear clothes that fit his vision. I'm sure he'll do a great job. He doesn't work for me though. I will not be coming back here. For reference, when I went to the other tailor, she did not spend anytime questioning what I want. She just did it. This is a list of the work the other tailor did to make it fit perfect. Coat: shorten both, both sides, center seam, raise back, deepen arm holes. Pants: crotch, plain bottom, super crease, flatten hips. Shirt: Outside shirt tape. Vest: Add adjustable strap back on. Please do not let my review steer you away from Escobar Tailors. I'm just wanted to share my experience and perhaps help others out who may be looking for the same fit that I like. read more

Escobar Tailors was the right choice for me and my fiancee. When we needed an alteration for a gown and our old tux we came here and we weren't disappointed. Polite, knowledgeable and skilled, he helped us feel comfortable enough to make the hard decision of ditching the old too-small tux for a much-needed upgrade. We love the way the new one looks and heartily recomend this place to anyone who needs similar help. read more

I feel like being a tailor is a selfless, thankless job. Getting the best you imagined in your head is almost always less than what a normal human can deliver. I went to escobar to fix my leather vest where a snap had broken. I originally went in and the owner told me to find a replacement snap and they would do what they could. I dropped it off once I had found the snap. He charged me five dollars, I only had a ten in my pocket. Instead of reaching for the cash register he reached his hand out and said 'Thank you my friend, I will have a beer in your name.' I honestly thought for a second about explaining, but then I thought of how classy of a move that was. He fixed my motorcycle vest that I practically live in, he thinks I left a 100% tip, and everyone is happy. On my way out he said 'If you need anything else, please come back'. It gave me the warm and fuzzies. I saw him dealing with other people and he was always honest and nice and I think he is a craftsman. If anything else comes down the pipe that I will need any work done, I will go back. read more

I'm a loyal Escobar Tailors patron- they are always courteous, the work is consistently flawless and I can always count on being happy with the final product. I took my first pair of jeans to him seven years ago and have never found a better tailor. Highly recommend- he's definitely worth it! read more

Small, personable tailors - I asked for an alteration to be done by the next day, but they apparently forgot about it when I arrived to pick up. They got on it immediately and had them ready in 20 minutes. I padded my pick up time so it wasn't a big deal, but it was nice to see them jump on it. And they did an excellent job. read more

I've been here about 4 times now I highly recommend this place if you was high quality work. Escobar is the nicest man he doesn't try to push anything on me I tell him what I like & then he makes some of his suggestions & that's what I appreciate the most. Not just a man tryna make sales trying to get over on you he actually cares & enjoys his job read more

Paid $50 just to get pants tailored. Only reason I came here was because I was recommended by a friend that they're pretty cheap and for pants only they were only charged $25. Staff is very rude, non seem lively at all. They all seem to hate their read more

Mr. Escobar tailored a suit for me and did a fantastic job. You can really tell the difference with an experienced tailor. He had some great deals on some fantastic all wool suits as well, in his words, he wants to help along the economy so take advantage of these deals while you can! read more

I cannot thank Efrain enough for the superb work and craftsmanship he put into altering my suit, this man is like a flipp'n suit whisperer or something! It was like stepping into a perfectly fitting glove, I love it! Thanks once again Efrain, I WILL BE BACK!!! read more

Took my new Borrelli sport jacket in for tailoring. As usual Mr. Escobar did a superb job, he is expensive but this is due to the fact that a master tailor is doing the work. He is worth every penny, if you have a quality garment that justifies the cost. If so, bring it to him, you will not be disappointed. read more

Had a suit that needed alterations and was hoping to get it back quickly. All other tailors quotes me a week. Escobar Tailors did it overnight and a nice job. read more

Quality hem job on new suit pants at a reasonable price. Measured once and correctly and came out perfect. Got it done a day early too! My new go-to place for tailoring. Thanks. read more

Escobar is a consummate professional with the tailoring his shop does, as well as the style and fit recommendations he gives. The kind of class and quality he offers is really quite rare. A jewel among the industry. read more

I've found my tailor. His work is wonderful and he's very nice to deal with. Pricing is very fair too!

I previously used a tailor located in Concord that closed down. I would take my suits and sports coats for tailoring and come out uncertain if the craftsmanship was acceptable. After they closed down I found Escobar Tailors when going to the movies one day. I decided to give it a shot and so far I've taken four suits, three sports coats, and bought one suit from Efrain and my clothes fit perfectly and the difference is night and day! Personally you want people to know your clothes are tailor fitted when they look at you and it's obvious they have been by a professional! Thank you Escobar Tailors for making me look good!!! But the reason they get a total of 5 STARS is because the people who work there are helpful with suggestions and have gone out of there way to accommodate my request. I had an event to go to and needed the sports coat within the next two days. This is a week before Xmas and they go it done of me! Exceptional! read more

this is as good as it gets! being that i am pretty tall, it's not often i need to have jeans hemmed (ok ~ i've never done it before). i was going out of town and had some jeans that were way too long. i brought them to Escobar Tailors and from the moment i walked in, i felt transported to another time it was wonderful. Efrain, the owner, asked the right questions, measured to perfection, and had my jeans looking hot and hemmed by that evening. of course there was a nominal fee for expediting the hem job, but they did an amazing job and my jeans looked just like they would coming out of the store. Efrain also pointed out that they always use the manufacturer's thread. makes all the difference! this is not your mama's dry cleaning hem job! they are PROS and i would highly recommend them. i will be back myself for many more alterations now that i understand the difference it makes! amazing, seriously! read more

I love this place. Being shorter than the average bear, I have had many pants hemmed by the father and son. They are friendly and prompt. They have been in the same location for years. The only drawbacks are the fumes. Downstairs is a smog test place and a nail salon. Also, parking sucked. I recommend parking in what-used-to-be Lyon's parking lot. I will definitely return the next time I buy long legged pants. Plus, the son is a hottie! read more

I'm relatively new to Concord. I called at least 8 alterations places regarding pricing. This place is the most expensive. $20 for hemming a pair of pants. And it takes a whole week. read more

I was given a pair of $800 designer leather pants that were several sizes too big, so I figured it was worth paying for the alterations. I called several places and this place seemed to have the best price and ratings. I brought them in and tried them on so he could mark them for the alterations. He basically just eye balled it and when I made a suggestion he referred to himself as a "surgeon" and to let him do his work. Uh, okay... So I had to trust him and pray he knew what he was doing because he'd only get one shot. The quote was around $150ish. I came back a week later and they fit like a glove! Unbelievable! I highly recommend him, especially for leather. read more

Found Escobars a few months ago and had him work on a pair of pants. He did a fantastic job. Best tailor I have found in contra costa county. I've since had him work on 8-10 other pairs of pants from simple hems to tapering legs to completely rebuilding an old pair of pants, all have been perfect. A true tailor is not easy to find, but escobars is true craftsmanship. Highly recomend read more

The price for a minor suit alteration cost as much as the suit itself and the gentleman came off as too crabby and ostentatious. Will seek business elsewhere, but for the area I'm sure they're in the right place for such behavior. read more

I love this place!!! They did a beautiful job on a hard to alter silk dress with a side zipper. I'll be back for sure.

My boyfriend and I recently started taking our clothes here for tailoring. I couldnt part with a beautiful Diane Von Furstenberg dress that ive had for years after it became too big for me. They took a size 8 dress down to a size 4. It was a costly ($100) garment change but I happy to pay it to be able to still wear my dress! They also have a FAST turn around should you need something hemmed quickly. My boyfriend frequently has his suits tailor over night and they turn out beautifully sown. I would definitely recommend them! read more

This guy is fantastic. I spent some good money on a couple suits last time I went to India, the only problem was the pants were too tight. I thought the suits were a lost cause until I found this place. I forgot the owner's name but he did an amazing job of using the extra material to stretch out the pants. The suits look great now and I felt his prices were very reasonable. Compared with the usual local dry cleaner tailoring work his work is incredible. If anyone is looking for a good tailor in the east bay I highly recommend this guy. read more

An excellent craftsman. Efrain fixed a suit jacket that had been almost "tailored" beyond repair by someone I had tried first based on his positive yelp reviews. Would have been 5 stars but for the price. $130, Ouch. Better than scrapping a nice new suit though, which I almost had to do. read more

My husband needed to get his suit tailored that we bought from Men's Warehouse. It was originally tailored at Men's Warehouse but the alterations were poorly done (the pants were too baggy, the jacket sleeve length was too long, the jacket collar was standing away) We heard about Escobars from our co worker and decided to try it out. After receiving the tailored suit, we were very satisfied. Everything that was needed to be fixed was corrected! We are very satisfied customers :) read more

Nice people. Nice customer service. Old school, cool tailor. I'll be going back with my next suit.

Great Tailor, actually let's say fantastic tailor. Very reasonable to have a suit tailored and I get tons of compliments on the suits I have had tailored here. read more

Needed French cuff holes sewed into my wedding dress shirt and needed it in less than 24 hours. They were able to do it for a reasonable price. read more

I love this place. I get my pants altered here all the time. I love how precise they are. I always trust them to decide the length of my pants instead of me telling them. read more

My husband stopped in here to have his measurements taken for an online tux rental. The tux fit like a glove and Escobars even gave him some points on the cut he should order. It was well worth the stop and we will be back in the future. read more

Escobar Tailors did a gorgeous, expert job of repairing and altering my favorite wool jacket. I love my jacket more than ever now - it fits better and looks better. He turned my off-the-rack Macy's coat into a one-of-a-kind tailored, beautiful piece! The prices are also reasonable, and the service and workmanship excellent! read more

Not cheap but worth every penny!! Very professional and clean work. This was my first time using Escobar Tailors and I assure you, it will not be my last time. read more

Have had further work done at this place. They are very professional and have since hemmed a number of designer jeans, tailored a sportscoat, fixed a tear on my leather jacket, etc... Suggest you go here. read more

Excellent work! Practically read my mind and new Aracely how to take care of my suit, vest, and pants. Thank you Escobar

Escobar Tailors will be my go to tailor shop for the rest of my time in the Bay Area! I have been more than pleased with the work Efrain has done for me. This great tailor really understands the finer details of altering clothing to so that you look your best. His quality of work consistently surpasses my expectations. Escobar Tailors: good price, top quality work, always timely, and ALWAYS a pleasure to do business with. read more
