    Expensive and sloppy work for a simple job that took multiple days. I would not recommend.

    He is the real deal. He's been sewing since his childhood and he is patient and did a wonderful job.

    My wedding dress was a straightforward crepe material that needed to be taken in a medium/small…read moreamount for a wedding dress - an easy job on the surface, but it needed to be done well to really fit well because of the style. This placed aced it! After my first fitting, the dress needed a few final-touch adjustments to really fit its most flattering. I explained the nuance & what I was looking for, and next appointment it was perfect. They also advised PERFECTLY on the length, the train, and the bustle. These guys know their stuff. In addition to their craft, their turnarounds and prices are incredible - that's what bumped them from "excellent" to "rave about them to friends" in my book. I was able to book my appointment same week, the first turnaround was one month, and the second turnaround (which was no additional cost) was another week. They also quoted me about 1/3 of what an experienced, luxury wedding dress alterations specialist quoted me. Bonus - since my wedding, I took in 2 pair of jeans for hemming and they did a great job with those two. turnaround was only a month

    I did not expect the experience i had in light of the reviews i've seen. I had one large loose…read morecotton shirt to be copied and remade exactly as it was. i did say the top button could be left off. and i had two long dresses to be hemmed. one came out perfectly and the other was an eyelet hem that had to be taken off and replaced at the correct length and with the side slits to remain the same length as originally. The hemmed eyelet dress is 1-1/2 inches too short on one side and is lopsided. The shirt being copied came back with plastic snaps instead of buttons. i asked for those to be replaced with buttons. the tailor asked for two extra days to redo and i gave him four extra days. This afternoon i went to pick up and was told they were waiting for buttons they ordered. three 1/2" white buttons and buttonholes could not be put in over 4 days??? !!! What a waste of $300+ If someone had called me to explain it would have helped.

    I specifically called to ask if they did reweaving and they said yes. I then dropped off two…read moresweaters with small moth holes and made it absolutely clear that I wanted reweaving not stitching. I repeated this several times explaining that reweaving should be invisible and that I did not want stitching under any circumstances since I had already had a bad experience with this elsewhere. They told me they understood and that the work would take two weeks. When I came back I was shocked to find that they had done exactly what I asked them not to do, they stitched the holes. The stitches are obvious to the eye and to the touch yet they insisted it was "reweaving." My sweaters are now ruined and the only way I could get them back was to pay for work I never agreed to. I feel completely cheated and lied to about what services they provide and forced to pay for the exact opposite of what I asked for. On top of that I now have to pay again somewhere else to try and salvage my sweaters. This was a very dishonest and upsetting experience.

    William is an extraordinary tailor! He has the magic touch to make your garment look exceptional…read moreand custom fitted. I appreciate his great eye and understanding of menswear and fine details as well. I first visited this tailor a few years ago with a blazer that I had bought overseas. Because of my height, jackets always have to be cut down and made slimmer, and buying off the rack suits is a nightmare because the pants are always way too big in the waist and require a lot of tailoring. William did the most beautiful job on a blazer that I bought in Spain and even added special stitching to the button holes; it has been my favorite jacket ever since. Last week I brought in a new suit and some shirts to take in, and he did the most incredible tailoring job once again. I've had suits tailored in Rome by some of the best tailors my friends recommended, and honestly I think William is better than any of them. The shop is also decorated with antique cameras on display and lots of interesting things to look at. The whole staff is super charming and nice. There's parking in back in a small lot with meters and I believe the shop has a couple of parking spots of their own, but I haven't used them. I give this establishment my highest recommendation as a tailor and also the prices are a good value. Turn around is quick as well. The jackets and suits that I have brought here have always ended up being my favorite and best fitting pieces.
