I've been working with Mustafa Tailoring for over six years, and in that time Mustafa has done countless alterations. Quite simply, he is exceptional. By my count, he's done over 20 suits What sets Mustafa apart is not just technical skill (which is outstanding), but his eye for proportion, balance, and fit. He understands how a suit should move with the body, how it should sit on the shoulders, and how subtle adjustments completely change the presence of a garment. Every piece he's done for me fits impeccably and looks intentional -- never over-tailored, never generic. He's also incredibly consistent. Whether it's a business suit, something more relaxed, or a complex alteration, the results are always precise and dependable. Over the years, he's come to understand my preferences so well that I trust his judgment completely. If you're looking for a tailor who combines craftsmanship, experience, and genuine pride in his work, Mustafa Tailoring is as good as it gets. I wouldn't go anywhere else. read more

What a life saver. I have a sequin pant suit that didn't fit and a very tight turn around for alterations. I got my pants back in about 2 days and they fit perfectly read more

Great tailor to work with. He is honest and fair. His prices have increased but whose haven't. I recently asked him to fix a too little suit and the results were incredible. My Instagram is still in shambles from my post. read more

I'm not sure what all of these positive reviews are about but this guy is AWFUL. I took an expensive WHITE linen dress for a SIMPLE hem and he messed that up! It was quite honestly the easiest thing in the world to do and it looks horrible!!! The hem is sloppy and crooked and I don't know if he spilled something on it or used a dirty iron but there is a HUGE YELLOWED STAIN at the bottom front and center! I mean a tailor should be able to do a BASIC hem (maybe he was trained in the dark??). Oh and he offered to make me a couple of masks out of the left over material for an additional $10 each. They are SO THICK and look ridiculous. Now I have to take the dress to my dry cleaners and PRAY that they can get the stain out and ask them to fix the hem. TERRIBLE. Word of advice to the "tailor"--if you are unable to do a job properly--just SAY NO. read more

I just love when you find a service in your new hood. You all know the needs; supermarket, cleaners, restaurants, shoe repair, tailor, etc. Been looking for a tailor now for two years in NJ. Finally found one "Mustafa Tailoring Alterations". My wife needed 5 items to be tailored. Our go to guy(s) in Astoria is just to far from Cliffside Park. Tolls and mileage adds $20 to your bill. What do I do; did you say "Yelp". Mustafa Tailoring Alterations operates out from the top floor of a residential house. So you would not find him by walking down the business area of Union City. This is why Yelp and I are good friends. My wife called and asked some general questions; cost, hours, etc. Guy was so nice, friendly and attentive by phone. Off we go to get job done. Long story short 2 or 3 pants and 2 jackets tailored $90. Very fair. Best part; very good work. A "pro". Told my wife selves to wide on a jacket; zip, zip; looks great. Mustafa even fixed a pair of pants in a few minutes that my wife could take with her. Super Nice. Overall, this guy is awesome. Good work. A fair price; CC. Friendly. Mustafa Tailoring Alterations you will certainly be my new go to guy for tailoring. Remember my wife and I when you become "The Tailor to The Stars". Thanks...... read more

David Mustafa is amazing! He did the alterations on my wedding dress so quickly and perfectly! My dress was so comfortable and looked great! Not only does he do great work, but he's so warm and friendly too! Go to him for anything and everything... the hem on your pants or your wedding dress. He even does custom builds, if you're in the market for a handmade suit made just for yo read more

Honestly, I've found my tailor and I hope I never have to switch. His precise measurements makes everything fit like a glove. His prices are extremely reasonable and he understands the current styles and trends so he knows what you're looking for. He's been doing it for many years and that's very obviously. An expert in his craft. He did my suit in 3 days and I just brought some pants to him that I needed last minute. They will be done by tomorrow at 3pm. That's a 24hr turnaround. So impressed. read more

Bridal shop received my dress four sizes too big and the wedding was 2 weeks away. Mustafa altered the dress to perfection in one week and made minor adjustments on the spot while I waited.

On point , guy knows his stuff. Well priced and very flexible. Altered my entire suit to my liking and it fit perfectly. Will be returning

I am glad I decided to look for a local tailor instead of dropping it off at the mall to someone I do not know. Mustafa was quick and precise in his measurements and gave me exactly the look I wanted. His service is great as he is flexible with pick up times and will even work on something on the spot if either he/you are unsatisfied with the job done. I highly recommend getting your clothes tailored here. read more

Mustafa is a great tailor. I took two suites in for complete alteration; after losing some weight my suites were way too big. The suites now fit as if they were made just for me, because they were. The quality is top-notch and the fitting is amazing. He told me that he has been tailoring for over 40 years, and it shows in the work. The perfection and style are second to none. If you need a tailor, I recommend going to Mustafa, he will not disappoint. He is also very polite and professional, offering personalized service that is hard to come by these days.

This is my go to tailor. I've had two dresses altered by Mustafa and both times he did an excellent job. His prices are reasonable and he is thorough with his work. He always makes sure that everything is perfectly how I want it. I highly recommend Mustafa to anyone who is looking for a trustworthy and talented tailor! Vikki D. read more

I had a good experience with Mustafa's Business. I had my CK suit tailored, measurements took 20-30 minutes, I wanted my sleeves tapered, my pant leg hemmed/tapered, and Jacket midsection taken in. I did not feel rushed or pressured when getting tailored or when I received my final product to try on. Place is located on the second floor of a house. At first I was skeptical because he pinned one side of the sleeve and leg, but i was pleasantly happy with the final product. I would make sure to bring your dress shoes and shirts if you are going there to tailor your suit. Mustafa is a master of his craft and will be returning with more items for him to tailor. Thank You Mustafa. My only negative is that I did not receive a call when my suit was completed and had to follow up myself. read more

I found Mustafa last year, and he's now my go to tailor. Mustafa is not only profession and legit in his skill, but he's courteous, considerate, and accommodating - truly rare traits for the reputation of those in the area. Personally, I am also very particular when it comes to fit. Mustafa has tailored 3 of my suits, in addition to number pants to fit perfectly. Truly a man skilled in the craft. Glad I found him when I did! read more

The best tailor in the tri-state if you need any alterations this is your guy! He's been my tailor for years, once here you wont go anywhere #HandsDownTheBest read more

This guy is good. Really good. Great work. A little on the pricy side, but you get what you pay for. ******** The one real gripe? -0.5 stars for parking. Tiny one lane one way road with city size street parking. 4.5 stars rounded up to 5. read more

Went there to get a bridesmaids dress altered. Mustafa was great! So helpful and the dress fit perfectly. Price was reasonable as well!

Best in town honestly. Will go above and beyond with services. Always puts the client first. Fast and very efficient.

Extremely quick service ! Dress came out beautiful and well fitted definitely will go again for sure.

Purchased 5 pants but the waists were too big, everything else fit perfectly. I have been searching for a tailor that would neatly alter without butchering the pants. I found Mustafa and his work is AMAZING! The pants waists were altered so neatly, everything is just seamless and now fits perfectly! Thanks Mustafa. read more

I found Mustafa through other yelp reviews on people who raved about him. I needed someone who I could count on as I needed him to make alterations to my 2 wedding dresses. Of course I was nervous since I had not used him before and was going based on reviews of total strangers but he was fantastic! My dress was too small and he changed the back so it would fit as I lost weight. He also added a bustle to my dress and shortened my reception dress. He worked with me many times and did several fittings with me until it was perfect and exactly how I wanted it for my big day. We also used Mustafa to tailor two of my fiancé's shirts for the wedding. The other yelp reviews are true. He is very good and he knows what he is doing. His prices are absolutely unbeatable and he is flexible with scheduling which is great. I highly recommend Mustafa. read more

This place is located on the top floor of a house with an awning that says mustafas family. The tailor himself is awesome. He's really nice and does exactly what you tell him you need. His work is excellent. Great job and thanks! Deff coming again with my future needs. read more

Mustafa is professional, great at his profession, and very warming guy. I been to his place a 4 times now and each time with nothing but great finished product. He knows his stuff. I have recommended a few other friends and they are happy with their results of his work. Thank you as always Mustafa! If I could I give you more stars I would! read more

Mustafa did an amazing job. My pants do not even appear as if they have been taken to a Tailor. They look perfect like as if I purchased them that way read more

Mr.Mustafa did an amazing job of tailoring a suit for my wedding. He asked me lots of questions to make sure I was getting what I wanted and offered great suggestion on how to improve certain areas. He was able to provide a quick turn around time as well. I had some hesitations since it was my first time getting a suit tailored and I needed it in less than a well but Mr.Mustafa went above and beyond for me even ironing a shirt for me. Will definitely be coming here with all my clothes. read more

Got my bridesmaid dress altered so quickly (hemmed and taken out) . Thank goodness because I took it last minute. He also tapered my bf's suit jacket in 30min. to fit like a glove. No need to come back to pick it up. Great customer service. Mustafa is easy to contact and super professional. Will spread the word to my family and friends that we found our tailor. read more

Wow. I brought in two pairs of pants for hemming and about 15 minutes after Mustafa pinned them, he handed me them back perfectly hemmed and pressed. While there, I also saw him take on two elaborately beaded and embellished formal dresses for a wedding. He does outstanding work and he's now my go-to guy for alterations. read more

Quick and efficient service! I called ahead about needing alterations for a pair of dress pants and was told to just come by. The pants were ready within a few days. Tidy work, no complaints. read more

Great tailor! Took a bridesmaid dress in and it was altered for 65$ within a few days. Small shoppe could use some TLC- don't be deterred the work is great! read more

Friendly, fast service, and excellent accuracy with alternations. I highly recommended him!!!

Mustafa knows what he is doing. I brought in a dress that was too small in some areas....I was impressed with the work that was done. Fit was perfect after he did his magic. I highly recommend! read more

Was looking for a tailor in my neighborhood and came across Mustafa through yelp reviews. Like the others have said...Mustafa is the real deal! His masterful work made an off-the-rack suit way better than one I just had custom made! I picked it up today and couldn't be happier. I am so impressed by his work that have dropped off another suit and a couple pair of pants. If you want to look right in a suit, you need a tailor and Mustafa has the eye and skills to get you what you want. Once he knows your style and body type he can take anything and make it just for you. Highly Recommended! read more

I called Mustafa last minute after finding his info on yelp- my tailor was unable to finish my gown due to a family emergency (understandable) but I was desperate! She told me this info on Thursday morning and the wedding (which I was a bridesmaid for) was on Sunday! I called him frantically and he told me I can come at anytime. I quickly put on the dress for him and he pinned it in 2 minutes flat, told me to wait, and then nearly completed taking in the entire gown in 10 mins flat! I was over the moon with the end result. read more

Mustafa tailoring skill is outstanding . I asked to get my overcoat suit and pants altered and he did it right away. Aside from that, something's I wished to get but didn't have the funds and he included it in as a bonus. Mustafa truly cares about his work and treats it like art. Anything u want done he will do it just as you say. He also met his deadline. I am very happy with my alterations. read more

He is the best tailor ever! He is the person I go to if I have to alter any of my dresses. He will never disappoint and his work is truly excellent. read more

Had my husbands suit pants altered with David and they are perfect. He is professional and does exceptional work in a timely manner. Highly recommend! read more

My go to tailor for over 15 years, the best there is. Never failed me on a job and makes miracles happen. I live in Montclair now and still make my trips to come see him. Only his hands touch my clothes. He has saved several $1000 suits for me that were at the brink of no repair. Appointments are a must come, recommend coming during the week. Weekends are typically for his regular customers who want to get something fixed to go out on the town and he will fix while they wait. read more

David Mustafa is the MAN!!! Period!!! I have been looking for him for 20+yrs and now that I have found him, he is stuck with me for good. My father worked at Saks Fifth Avenue in the mens department so 7 days a week he was in business formal or casual on the weekends. I grew up with his sense of style and I know what I like and and what I do not like in how my clothes fit and drape my body. I suffered greatly dealing with the status quo and had my expensive clothing butchered by "tailors" who were hacks and did not know what they were doing. I stuck to the Men's Wearhouse because that was the only alternative I had to buy my suits. Once my friend recommended Mustafa to me, he came to my location, measured me and put me at ease. I finally felt comfortable wearing my own clothes and fit the way it works for me. I am now in the process of having Mustafa customize a suit and shirt collection for me. This does not include winter coats sitting in the closet I could not use but now, will have altered and can be reused again. THE BEST PART!!!! he can take old jackets and make the new again but adding the leather patch to the elbows of threadbare jackets. I am going to save so much money it is ridiculous, and that is why I love Mustafa. He is very polite, MUY SIMPATICO and takes pride in his craft. Finally, additional two examples of how Mustafa brought value for me. I went to an outlet store and purchased 2 suits, one of them was a size too big but the clearance price of $69 dollars for black pinstriped suit was a steal. Once Mustafa got done with it, it looked like a paid $400-$500 dollars for these suits. The last example, I went to Mens Warehouse and purchased 5 suits on sale. I was measured, fitted and when I came back for my clothes, only 1 out of the 5 suits fit me properly. To make the adjustments, that were not done properly, they wanted to charge me AGAIN for the areas that they did not touch the first time!!!!! RIDICULOUS. I politely said no thank you and took them to Mustafa who made the changes for me until I felt comfortable in my clothes. A man makes the clothes he is wearing and not the other way around, so when you feel good about what you are wearing, it shows to the whole wide world. THANK YOU MUSTAFA, YOU ARE THE BEST!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1 read more

In mid May I was looking for a tailor to alter my daughter's dress, she was the ring bearer for a wedding. I called Mustafa and he immediately made an appointment the same day. Mustafa was very nice and overall knows his craft very well. His prices are great for his workmanship. A week later my daughter's dress was ready and fit her beautifully. During the same week I realized my dress and my husband's slacks needed to be tailored. We explained we needed it overnight for the service next day. Mustafa was very accomadating and did a wonderful job with my dress and my husband's pants. Even the price for same day/ overnight was reasonable. Definately is my go to tailor for any outfits. I recommended the bride to get her dress altered and was very happy with the results. read more
