This included adding bustles, hemming a few inches off, and taking in the waist. She even added a few extra clasps to the back button area just for security and added a finger loop for my long train.

I will definitely keep coming to her if I have any other alteration needs!

Rosa is extremely professional and is great at communication, ensuring that each piece of clothing was tailored to my exact liking. The fit of my suits is perfect, which is essential for my work attire. The pricing was very reasonable, especially considering the high quality of the alterations. I was also impressed with the quick turnaround time; my alterations were completed within the week. Overall, I highly recommend Rosa's for anyone in need of alterations. You won't be disappointed!

WE ARE BEGGING YOU!!! FOR THE LOVE OF GOD DO NOT COME HERE!!! THIS PLACE IS AWFUL AND THE OWNER…read moreAND LADY IS AWFUL! This was one of the worst experiences I have ever had with any business. They completely ruined not one, but TWO dresses for my future mother-in-law right before my wedding. One dress was literally cut open with scissors from the front where the mesh is, leaving a huge hole in the fabric because of their carelessness. Instead of properly fixing their mistake, they covered it with beads that look absolutely ridiculous. The dress is ruined. The beads don't go there and ruined the effect of my mother in law's dress. The second disaster? Both dresses were hemmed way too short. We specifically explained that these were gowns for a BLACK-TIE wedding and needed to touch the floor. Somehow they still managed to cut them so short that the shoes show. How do you ruin the most basic alteration request? A hem? We're talking about dresses worth hundreds of dollars that can never be restored to their original condition. One was $800 and the other was around $550. We trusted them with important dresses for a once-in-a-lifetime event, and they destroyed them. What makes it even worse is the attitude. No accountability. No professionalism. No concern whatsoever for the damage they caused. So many excuses and pulling down the dress when clearly that's doing NOTHING. Just rude, dismissive behavior while we stood there looking at dresses they ruined and trying to fix it in a cheap and unprofessional way. Now we're one week away from my wedding, scrambling to figure out what to do because of their incompetence. The stress, frustration, and money they've cost us is unbelievable. If you value your clothing, your money, or your sanity, go somewhere else. There are plenty of alteration shops out there. This is NOT A PROFESSIONAL OR A GOOD ONE. SAVE YOUR MONEY AND SANITY. We want our money back, we paid for professional alterations and instead received damaged, poorly altered dresses that can never be returned to their original condition. You had one job: alter the dresses correctly. Instead, you cut a hole into one gown, covered your mistake with mismatched beading, and hemmed both dresses far too short despite being told they were for a black-tie wedding. The result is hundreds of dollars in damage, unnecessary stress, and a ruined experience for our family right before one of the most important days of our lives. I genuinely wish we had read a review like this before trusting them. We trusted them with dresses worth over $1,000 combined, and you ruined both of them. No customer should have to pay for that. We expect a full refund and would strongly encourage anyone considering this business to take their clothing elsewhere before they end up in the same situation.

I spoke to the older lady owning the shop once and she seemed busy so there was no small talk just a brief answer and ran back to the shop, which is fine. I came back the week after to drop off something to get tailored and there was a notice on the door of a family emergency and they were closed for the week. I came back two weeks after at 3pm, and they are closed, but no notice this time. Hours posted are until 6pm. It's probably a bad time for them. I'll revise the review if/when I get my garment serviced.

I've used this business for dry cleaning and recently for alterations. Over time, I noticed a significant increase in pricing, especially for alterations and repair work. I understand that costs rise, but many of the same services can be found elsewhere for less. I continued coming here because they're around the corner from me, super convenient location and I wanted to support a local business that I had gone to for years. What was disappointing, was the way my concerns were handled. When I questioned the pricing on alterations, Sharon at the front counter told me that they have "thousands of happy customers" and don't need my business. I Was genuinely taken back by the disrespect. After years of supporting this business, I found that response arrogant, rude, and disrespectful. A long-time customer should never be made to feel that their business doesn't matter. If the pricing no longer worked for me, a professional response would have been to explain the costs and allow me to make my own decision. Instead, I was essentially told they didn't need my business. I hoped to continue supporting this business, but after this experience, I'll be taking my dry cleaning and alteration needs elsewhere!

HORRIBLE SERVICE !!!!…read more Even though I specifically requested that they not use pins to secure the train, they returned the dress with two pins stuck into the bodice, leaving visible holes. When I brought it back, they said it could be fixed right away, so I returned again a couple of days later to pick it up--but it hadn't been properly repaired. Only the lower part of the train had been addressed, while the most important area was left untouched. They then asked me to come back again a week later. When I finally received the dress, it came back with severe stains on the décolletage area that were not there when I first brought it in. Even after I complained, their response was shockingly irresponsible--they said they didn't want to touch the dress anymore. This is truly unacceptable service. I strongly advise against bringing your precious wedding dress to this place. I have worked in the wedding industry for over 25 years, and I have never experienced such poor service. Out of the five dresses I entrusted to them, two were returned in a condition that made them unusable.

Located in an older strip mall in Artesia behind the Hanmi Bank. Parking wasn't any issue when I arrived.

She also confirmed that she would duplicate the original hem style- this I appreciated so much as other placed I've been to don't put in the effort and will default to a single row hem stitch. Mina was very kind and let me know the pants would be ready in 2 days. She charges $15 for my hemming job which is very reasonable. You pay up front.

I had a typical problems for all pants... My belt loop ripped.. and I'm generally a busy person but I was in the area and happened to walk pass the store. As I walked in, the owner came up to me saying hello, making a few jokes and I asked him how long it would take him to fix the belt loop. He joked 2 hours.. so I gave him my pants and sat there waiting for a total of ..... less than 2 minutes.. I was quite impressed and offered to pay but he REFUSED to take my payment.. Encountering such great customer service, not only I will come back for his service but I'll take my time out to write this review.. and I'm not the type of person who would write Yelp review.

I was completely overwhelmed and only had two and a half weeks before my wedding to have my dress reconstructed and hemmed. I felt like my dream dress--and my wedding day--were falling apart. Even though she was understandably hesitant to take on such a massive project with such a tight timeline, Kate saw how devastated I was and chose to help. From the moment I walked in, she made me feel calmer and gave me hope when I felt like there wasn't any left. Not only did she expertly put my dress back together, but she also hemmed it beautifully. Her craftsmanship, attention to detail, and genuine kindness are something I'll never forget. She didn't just alter a dress--she saved my wedding day. I am beyond grateful for Kate and everything she did for me. If you're looking for someone who is incredibly talented, compassionate, and truly cares about her clients, look no further. Thank you, Kate, for turning one of the most stressful moments of my wedding planning into a story with the happiest ending.
