    Jamal was incredible!! He was able to tailor my bridesmaid dress in no time. I highly recommend visiting this location for any alterations you may need!

    FROM THRIFT TO GIFT!! This man is amazing!!! I need some alterations to my paints to get ready for a wedding in 5days! He was able to measure me make suggestions and give me some extra room in the back to accommodate my love handles!! Had me looking like a million bucks. I came in with a lot of slacks from the goodwill across the street and he turned these into some $500 Dior exclusives!!! If you can't trust me you best believe you can trust him!!!

    We first used Tam's for dry cleaning a suit, and they did a great job. They even found cash in a pocket and when we picked up the suit they politely returned it. That kind of honesty goes a long way. [[HIGHLIGHT]]They are great business folks who earned our loyalty from the start.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] More recently, we found an awesome extra-large baseball hat on Instagram (@nogginboss) and needed embroidery for a Padres patch. It was a bit of an unusual request, but Tam's took care of it without hesitation. [[HIGHLIGHT]]My boyfriend was thrilled with his Christmas gift, and once again, Tam's came through.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Highly recommend this business!

    I've had many dresses altered here over the years and they always come out perfectly (on the first try!) dry cleaning is also 5 stars!

    Amazing service! They rushed an alteration on my top just in time for Coachella, and it came out perfect. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Super friendly, fast, and detail-oriented.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] I'll definitely be coming back.

    I couldn't be happier with the service that I received at Tim's alteration in a world where there are so many inconsistencies with dry cleaners and alterations. [[HIGHLIGHT]]It is a breath of fresh air to find a place that is actually open on a holiday and eager for business.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]]

    Hemmed, dry cleaned, and let out my bridesmaid dress! In record time
    Kelly B.

    Jamal was very kind and helpful with my rush order for hemming and dry cleaning my bridesmaid dress! He did a wonderful job, he even let it out a bit and now it fits wonderfully. He also called me to make sure I did not forgot that they close at 4pm on Saturdays because the wedding was on a Sunday. Will definitely be going back.

    Needed to get my bridesmaid dress taken in and hemmed, came out beautifully! Got my dress back in just a few days!

    Not sure what all the negative reviews are about. I've been patronizing this business for four…read moreyears now, and am highly pleased with their work. It's a dry cleaner, not the Marriot. I come here because they clean my vintage clothes, wool jackets, and men's suits flawlessly. I took a faux fur jacket to a different cleaner in the past, and they burned it; I had to give up that jacket and was so disappointed. I brought another faux fur item here with trepidation. Not only was it thoroughly cleaned, it was beautifully brushed into the correct shape. I was amazed!! They clean my vintage wool items with great care. I will always bring my dry cleaning here as long as I live in San Diego County, and they may cost a little more, but I am definitely getting what I'm paying for. And if you want someone to pat you on the head and tell you how nice you are, go to a therapist, not a dry cleaner. Come here if you want a good job on your special garments!

    After years of receiving an attitude by the staff I am officially done. Every single time I've gone…read morein to use their services I have been met with a curt and dismissive attitude. I don't understand what the issue is, and I don't care anymore. Today I told the employee (older woman with brown hair), exactly what I just said. Every time I come in here (or call to see if someone's there) I feel like I'm an imposition. Now, she did act sort of surprised, but I find it hard to believe that she's been complimented on her "sunny disposition." I'm taking my business elsewhere.
