Miss Lee has been around doing alteration for many years. I took a Brand-New jumpsuit and dress to her and they were expertly talior to my needs. I glad to see she has an assistant to help, she in in high demand. I take all my garments to her something I may need right away, I don't do that very often. Miss tries to accommodate me. Please kind and understanding, I want her to be around for along to continue to do what she loves. I'm sure that there are other customers that feel the same way I do about her. JSF read more

She is to busy and not enough help. I took something in and she said pick it up next week. After 3 weeks of waiting, I just took my blouse and went somewhere else, read more

Lee's Alterations is the best tailor I've ever been to! I brought in a few pairs of pants and within about 2-3 days, they fit like a glove. Lee is not only incredibly skilled but also such a kind and sweet person -- you can tell she genuinely cares about her work. On top of the quality, the prices are very affordable. If you need alterations done right, don't hesitate -- Lee is your person! read more

Did an excellent job of shortening some pants. They were ready exactly when promised. Friendly read more

Brought in a pair of jeans to be hemmed! Ready when promised (within a week)!! Reasonably priced and great job! Highly recommend and very sweet lady! read more

Please think twice before supporting Yun's. I've brought clothing to her in the past and often left wondering if I should try somewhere else, but I gave her the benefit of the doubt. Most recently, I went in for a dress alteration. I explained clearly what I liked and didn't like, but she ignored my input completely. She told me she charges $40 per hour, which I accepted. However, she then claimed it would take more than 10 hours to complete a job that another tailor ended up finishing in just 3 hours. When I told her I would not be moving forward, she became upset and demanded I pay her $40 for a 20-minute consultation--something she never mentioned upfront. I offered to pay $20 for the time, which felt fair, and asked if I could pay by card or Zelle. She refused and told me she would keep my dress unless I paid her in cash. I was shocked. Up to that point, she had always seemed kind. But as soon as I declined her services, her demeanor completely changed. In my experience, her pricing is inconsistent, and I often felt like I was being overcharged or misled. I've brought different garments to her before, and the pricing never seemed to follow any logic. Unfortunately, I cannot recommend Yun's due to the lack of professionalism and transparency. read more

This review is solely based on customer service. I am in a wedding & the bride is ordering all the bridesmaids' dresses. It wasn't something I had any say in. I called & explained the situation to whoever answered the phone. I asked if I could come in & have my measurements taken to send to the bride, and then once the dress arrived, I'd take it in for any alterations. I offered to pay to have my measurements taken. She said she makes dresses, so unless she's making the dress she won't do any measurements. That is not a way to do business in my opinion. The three other places I called had no problems doing my measurements. I won't be trying this business. read more

Great experience getting two pairs of pants hemmed. The stitching is perfect. My new go-to spot!

This woman is the sweetest thing! She does absolutely amazing work, and for a great price. Now I'm from the Bay Area, and things like this are expensive. Just to let everyone know, it's just her doing all this work. Please be kind, and patient. If she gives you a 1 week quote, please give her some extra time. read more

Fraudulent prices never has her items ready on time. Will quote you and stress you out when you're ready for your event and tell you to pay more. Don't trust her she's a fraud. She plays dumb and she plays like because of her memory. She forgets how much she quoted you. Literally a bonafide weasel. Try anybody else in town, but her. read more

She not only does impeccable work, but she's so kind and an absolute sweetheart. I have taken a few pair of jeans for hemming, and I have been satisfied with them all. The last time I asked for an original hem, and although it took longer, I was so impressed and happy with the result! She's so talented. She does tend to run late sometimes on the date for pick up, but keep in mind that it's only her doing all the work. I recommend factoring in a few more days and always calling first just to confirm whether it's ready or not. read more

Did fine with hemming pants, but had a definite "can't do" attitude about fixing a long zipper or replacing it with buttons and buttonholes. Hell, I'll do it myself and do it faster. If she wants less business at her age, I'm all for it. read more

Have to admit her work is good, but the time it takes her to get the work done is unacceptable. I dropped off my suit over two weeks before I needed it. She gave me a completion date of 2-9. I went on the 13th and it wast done. She told me it would be done in a week and when I went back in a week, still not done. I told her i needed it by the 20th, first thing in the morning as I was catching a flight. I called her the morning I was going to pick it up, she said it wasn't done, wtf!!!! It was finally done at noon and had to rush to the airport. Never again will I take anything to her. read more

Lee is the absolute best Iv used since I was stationed over seas in the Marine Corps. She is from Korea and has an extensive background that will knock your socks off. She used to cut and design dresses and suits. She had 30 employees at one time during her success in Korea and a HUGE business office. She won't make hand made items any longer because she's always overwhelmed with her current work load, and as she told me , we are both getting older and much more tired! I have my fingers crossed for myself. I'm trying desperately to have her make me a new Mens western sport coat. Iv never had one before and Iv seen pics of her past work! Anyway, back on topic.... You will not be disappointed with her work. She goes over your request in great detail as not to make a mistake that an unruly customer mite make to try and rip her off!! Better than just using Lee for your clothing alterations, give her word of mouth to your good friends! She has raised her prices a bit to keep up with inflation and constant rent raises... but what the hell? Who cares?? EVERYTHING HAS GOTTEN EXPENSIVE But this lady is worth every god damm dime she earns! You'll see, I promise read more

Very nice and efficient, even on my delicate wedding dress. Also with basic alterations. read more

Lee's Alterations - Wedding dress - Sewing & Alterations Near Me - Salinas, California

See all

She did a good job fixing 2 of my favorite pants. It was $30 to patch my work pants and $20 to patch my jeans. It took 2 weeks more than the original 1 week she had promised me, but it was fine since I wasn't in a rush. I definitely recommend her. read more

Alterations to my bridesmaids dress were done soo professionally. No complains .. sweet owner !!! Will go again!

This store is a rip off.Don't go.I wish I could give her -0 I brought my beautiful wedding dress to her. Super Disappointed how she sewed it to keep a train up. She put a piece of shitty strains in my dress to hold my train up!She put 2 hooks without an eyes!! My train material was too heavy for the thread that she sewed in my dress to hold it up! She should put a hook and eye instead of that crapy job she did for my dress and even it caused my dress to be damaged. Those shitty strains broke up as soon as we tried to hook the train up and I had to hold that heavy train all night on my hands and could not dance and also got rashes between my legs as holding it in front of me for all night long plus my dress got super dirty as well!! She ruined my most important night with her Awful job!! And she does not care at all!!! First when I went to her to fix it for me on june 2019, she write a receipt for $150 and I paid $100 of that right away.Then when I called her to see my dress is ready,she said yes come n get it,without saying any thing else.When I came to pick up my dress with a friend,she start crying and raising her voice on me and telling me you should pay me at least $50 extra than $150 on receipt as I work very hard on your dress!! Wth Who does that when they work as a professional?? Right! They can not ask you for more ! She gave me a very negative vibe with crying and complaining on that day!I kept telling her this is my wedding dress and when you cry,this give me a negative energy. I paid her $170 instead of $150 on receipt which still have my original receipt but still she was not happy at all n still crying. As she sewed it wrong , I was so upset and went to her store with my mother in law which she knows very well about sewing and showed her what happened with her shitty job and asked her politely to fix her job and clean my dress ! She refused all that and did not care at all She could at least Compensate with cleaning my wedding dress and repair it right,if she care about her customers! But she told us no I am not doing any thing and even she did not apologize !!!! read more

Outstanding quality in her work. Wonderful to deal with. Very accommodating. Easy access to the store. She genuinely woe with her customers!

Lee has integrity and fair prices. once I needed buttons on a blazer, nobody had them of course, I should've realized that. so I went out to Joannes and bought them and she put them on while I waited. From then on I always go there now. read more

Lee's alterations is THE place to go in Salinas for any alteration needs. The owner is such a sweet lady and does tremendous work, in a timely manner. I didn't give her too much time to work with and she was able to accommodate me. Thank you! read more

The lady that owns this place is beyond wonderful. She did an amazing job on altering my scrub pants. I would recommend her to anyone you know as long as you aren't in a hurry. read more

Was quoted a price to begin with for suit tailoring a pair of pants $160. I thought it was steep but agreed to it and paid upfront in cash. She said come back in 2 weeks. I came back 3 weeks later and she said she hadn't gotten to it yet. I came back 4 weeks later and said it's ready but I forgot to charge you the full price, you owe me another $45. So to get my suit back I paid this new surprise fee. Altogether $200 to tailor a suit, I should have just bought a new one. So frustrated and I feel swindled. read more

I just tried on my shirt after having Lee fit it for my body. I have to say that I am very impressed! She even offered to stitch my thick, ripped leather jacket together and I couldn't even tell which side was ripped when I got it back. If you still have doubts, don't! She's been here for over 30 years with numerous loyal clients and had much more professional experience before that as well. Her joyful persona and incredible tailoring skills have gotten her a loyal customer. You won't be displeased! read more

Life saver; highly recommend! The person I initially arranged to alter my bridesmaids dress had to back out last-minute. It was already the end of April and the wedding was May 18th. Despite needing a lot of complicated alterations, Lee was able to get it done by the date and price that was promised. Extremely nice person and excellent at what she does. I will definitely return the next time I need something altered. read more

This is a one woman show-Lee runs the place on her own! As a result, turn around time might be slower than other businesses, so if you're in a rush this might not be the place for you. Lee has met all of my deadlines/given times, but I haven't needed anything right away. She's affordable and very accommodating (she will stay after hours if you tell her in advance). She closes 1 hour earlier in the winter than summer. Overall, I was satisfied and would come back. Tip: bring cash! read more

I will NEVER go here again. I've had her alter two bridesmaid dresses of mine for my brother's wedding and now for my best friend's wedding and she was late on both! I didn't have one of them until THE DAY OF THE WEDDING when I was told it would be done on a prior date. Now with this second dress, not only did she have someone do it and then she had to redo it herself which made it late, it isn't even done the way I asked for and I leave town for the wedding tomorrow. Let me not forget to mention her attitude. Poor customer service skills! When I called asking if my dress was done on the second date I was given to pick it up, she didn't know what dress I was talking about and resorted to just telling me it wasn't ready so my aunt called back (she originally referred me to her) to see what was going on and all she could do was make up excuses instead of digesting the complaint and solving it, come to find out MY DRESS WAS DONE AT THIS TIME. She literally just told me it wasn't to get me off the phone. Didn't even go check after I gave her my name. Upon this second complaint, about the bust being don't incorrectly, again all she had were excuses. She wouldn't accept responsibility. She argued and said it was done the way it was supposed to be. My boobs did not shrink from the time I took my dress in to the time I picked it up so YES, she did do it incorrectly and poorly. read more

fast turn-around for my service dogs vest. Very fair pricing...

I came on a late notice (Saturday) and explained to her I need my Jersey tailored by monday, hoping she could have it ready my Monday morning, to my surprise she said why dont you come back this afternoon to pick it up and without hesitation, I said where do I pay. I tried it on the right sleeve wasn't as snug as the left, she said take it off and I'll fix it on the spot. That was so great! I'm very glad I met her. Money well spent. I have plenty of jerseys that I will be taking back for her to do more work read more

I just recently went here due to my usually location ALWAYS being closed. Now she did a great job with altering the length of my dress pants and did it in a day which is awesome! The only thing I was skeptical about was she keep asking me what length I wanted my pants.. I'm going there for you to alter them how dress pants should be so I was just a little caught off guard by that. Maybe my fault for not going to an official men's tailor. She did a great job though don't get me wrong! read more

Ajuma be charing to much for the suit alterations, i could have bought another suits for the price she charging.

I've gone here for alterations for over ten years. They are courteous as well as accommodating. I've gone in last minute requesting a quick alteration, and they helped me out. More importantly, their prices are very reasonable. I highly recommend this business. read more

I had a few things that needed simple repair and a pair of pajama bottoms that were shredded at the bottom. In just one day, the owner was able to return everything and the pj bottoms look like new! Will definitely be back when I need alterations. read more

Reasonably priced. Did a good, clean job with the alteration. And best of all I got it in a few hours when I told the owner i really need it ASAP. (Thanks a lot). read more

Lee's does a great job, if you're willing to be patient and are not in a rush. I've probably been there 6-10 times in the last two or three years. The lady always does a great job, but I'd say at least three times I went to pick up clothes on the day they were promised and they weren't ready. At least once, I went back a second time and they still weren't ready. That being said- I don't know how the poor woman keeps up with all the work she has. But I continue to go to her because she is friendly, does a great job, and is cheap. If you're in a rush- go to Julian's on Main Street, but be prepared to pay a lot more. read more

Would give a 0 if I could. Dude looked at my shirt, made fun of it then made fun of my clothes that I was wearing. I thought "whatever" but after he gave a crazy estimate, I just couldn't take it. 35$ for sleeve alterations?! I told him I was checking out other places and he responded, "dont come back if you leave. I dont do that shit". Wth... kudos to him for having a strong sense of self worth. Theres a reason they call it customer service though. Anyways, I went to Monterey and got it done for 10$ with much better service and it looks amazing. Maybe his work is flawless...? Didnt stick around to find out but it wasnt worth it. As a customer, I know my self worth too. Good luck Lee, not gonna get a penny from me read more

Lee is not only the best in town but she is adorable, quick, kind and amazing at her job. Highly recommend her without any hesitation. Even when I lived far away I brought my things to her. She's the best! read more

My wife went to this place 2 weeks ago to get an alteration done for a wedding we are going to this weekend. She went to pick up the item yesterday (the day it was scheduled to be done) and it had not been touched. My wife now has to go shopping the day before we are traveling for a wedding when we have a million other things to do. Thanks for Nothing! This is the worst kind of business person in the world, one that does not follow through on what they say they are going to do. I highly recommend you find someone else to do your alterations. read more

I went to pick up my dress today I like told to by Lee when I went a week and half ago. Nothing. The dress hasn't even been touched it's still in the same rack that it was on the day I dropped it for alterations for the my daughters sweet 16. So now with only one day to spare I have to figure out what I'm going to do along with the other stresses of planning a party and last minute deals. read more

Ms. Sook, the wonderful seamstress/expert in all things clothing in Lee's, is AMAZING!!!!! I moved to the area not long ago and had no idea where to go to get some last minute emergency alterations for some clothes I had to have before traveling the next week. I was a little worried about my time constraint because she had so much work to do already but she came thru and I am now prepared to travel tomorrow with beautifully altered clothing!!!! I have nEVER had a better alterationist and I will be bringing ALL of my clothes to her, Lee's does phenomenal work!! Not only that but I checked everywhere and hands down Lee's prices are also the best... I wish I could give more than 5 stars... read more
