    I needed last-minute alterations to a wedding dress in a hurry, and Polly not only opened on a day off to work with me but also got the job done in time for my wedding in NY a week later. Kudos to Polly and everyone else at this shop. You saved the day!

    I can not express how happy I am with the work Poly had done for my Wedding dress. My dress had a lot of applique and a scalloped hem, however Poly did her magic and my dress fit me perfectly. She also added a bustle and it made it look like a totally different dress for the reception. Her prices are reasonable for the great work that she does.

    Very professional and offer detailed work! I took some wide leg Nike pants and they tapered them exactly as I wanted them. Recently moved from SF, and looks like I found my new place.

    I never leave 1-star reviews, but this place has genuinely earned it…read more I came in before my wedding to get my suit altered and brought my bridal party along. I already had suits ordered and just needed minor work done. My own tailor had told me to expect no more than $40 for what I needed. This guy quoted me $200. When I said that was too high and that I'd take my business elsewhere, he turned on me and my friends and told us we had "wasted his time." He got hostile when I declined paying an overpriced quote. My friends felt so pressured that we ended up agreeing to a smaller amount of work. Even that was overpriced. And the quality? Absolutely unacceptable. The seams were visible. The stitching was clearly not done properly. And on my wedding day, the moment I stepped into my suit pants, the hem ripped completely. On my wedding day... This man was rude, his prices were outrageous, and his work fell apart literally on the most important day of my life. If you are considering coming here for anything, especially for a special occasion, please take my experience as a warning and go somewhere else. I would also avoid the Alameda Red Hanger Cleaners on South Shore, as they appear to be connected.

    Once again John hit it out the park!! He helped me put together my custom Harley vest. Told me it…read morewould take a couple of weeks but did it in about 12 days!! Every time I come up with a tailor idea, Golden Needle is the ONLY place I go.
