The shop is located in a small strip mall in Harbor Center, right next to the Harbor Center Mail Room. The owner, Buyong, was very kind and welcoming. I came in with a broken button on a pair of pants, and she helped me right away. She was very helpful and let me know that the alteration would be ready in a week, which I think is a reasonable turnaround time. A customer ahead of me mentioned that Buyong does excellent work, which was reassuring. Pricing is fair -- hemming starts at $15, and my button replacement was $10. I would definitely come back for future alteration needs. As a bonus, she also offers dry cleaning services, which is a plus!

After paying all that money I had put it thru my machine on delicate and wash it just to show that it wasn't there prior. I came to yall trusting that my items would be protected and didn't mind paying watever it cost but it seems as if y'all like to be dishonest. If your workers noticed they did something wrong when it came time to drying ironing, steaming whatever it is you do, they should of immediately brought it to someone attention and fixed it immediately, not give me my shirt looking the way it did especially when I know I didn't give it to you in that condition. That's being dishonest and trying to get away from your error. I gave them only 2 white shirts and I get it back with stains on it, the rest of the shirts were all black. 11 shirts but in all total 16 items. I checked every single item throughly before giving to the lady at the front and mention to her about a jacket that had chocolate on the sleeve but never ended up giving it to her cuz my son said he will just wash regular cuz it was like a rain coat type zip up so it would came off easily which it did when we took it home. Who ever took the time out to dry and press or iron my order should of had curiosity and respect that you clearly LACK to put it back through a clean and fix what you created. Especially knowing that you created the problem but instead you like be sneaky and not mention it when I pick up my items hoping I'm not paying attention and think it was already like that nope run them cameras back cuz that shirt was not stained when I went thru every item I gave to the lady and laid each item out on that table one by one. People pay attention if y'all see similar stains don't think it's already from you giving it to them they did that mess and my pictures show proof. How a fresh dry clean shirt got stains but I come home and gotta wash it to prove it wasn't there prior now. I waste my money paying for service that clearly wasn't great, where's the Aloha? I guess this is what you get when you paying 50% more for a 2 day rush service job smh.

After many years of searching for a perfect tailor, I finally found one!! DJ was very professional and personable, his location was easy to find and I had no problems with parking. Although it was at his house, I felt very safe around the neighborhood and in his home. He went above and beyond to tailor my outfits to my desires and they were returned to me faster than I had expected. My dresses, dress pants and jeans fit perfectly and nice for lady as short as I. Overall, I have no complaints and would not hesitate to return to him for all my tailoring needs!! Very satisfied and Mahalo DJ!!! read more
