Eddie is the man. Old school tailor with old school skills and reasonable prices. He's hemmed many of my pants both with original hem and without - work is always top notch. Be warned - cash only, payment up front! read more

I've brought 5 pairs of jeans and a hoodie to have done by Eddie and he's been an absolute pleasure to deal with. His prices were fair and he made sure to get everything done in a timely manner. Will definitely be back in the future when I need more work done. read more

Found this place as it was close to my house. I brought pants to adjust the hem and shorten them. He did a great job with the first pair so I continued to use Eddie for little work here and there. He helped me the most when I bought a gown I was going to where to the wedding. I loved the design but it was too big for me. He worked his magic and now the gown fits me perfectly and it is very flattering. Eddie is pretty straightforward, simple yet artistic and talented. He is my go to guy for any alterations and adjustments. He is also very warm and friendly to his customers. The shop is also very clean! It's a good neighborhood gem for sure! read more

[[HIGHLIGHT]]Eddie is great![[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Not very often you find tailors willing to do jerseys and he does them well. He's efficient and friendly. read more

I've had pants hemmed here numerous times. Great service-- and work is top-notch every time.

[[HIGHLIGHT]]They've been my tailoring service for over 10 years.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] He is the only person I TRUST with my clothes. I have a very particular way I want something to fit. He does exactly what I ask for and has never messed up once. I've taken countless jackets, shirts and jeans to him over the years. The product I get back is A+. read more

OK, So, this place is so legit. He works wonders! There was this pair of pants that I loved, and I wanted to take them on vacation! They were a little to short and a little to loose. As a guy, I usually don't get things tailored but I needed these to be more form-fitting. I found this place online and said to myself, the cost of the pants plus what it cost to get them tailored would be worth it. I didn't have time to try them on when I picked them up, but when I finally got to try them on, they were perfect. I 1000000% recommend this place over any other place I have been to in the city, and I am a native. Go here, it's a local business, there's parking, and this guy is awsome! read more

[[HIGHLIGHT]]Eddie is great.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] He's shortened sleeves on jackets and hemmed jeans for me and it's always done perfectly, at a fair price and in only a few days. I can trust him with a $400 pair of jeans because he knows what he is doing! read more

Altered ( let it out) suit pants and jacket, and a sports coat $180 for both . Eddie is very kind , Filipino, professional person. I wound Definitely go to him again read more

Good service good prices nice guy. Will come back here again. Great hours. Really good service.

Wonderful hidden gem. Work was reasonable, quick, and expert. I did a sleeve shortening on a blazer and shortened a hem on a wedding anniversary dress. Highly recommend! read more

Excellent tailoring service and fast turn around. Reasonably priced. [[HIGHLIGHT]]I found it useful to call ahead to make sure they weren't out to lunch.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] read more

Eddie tailored my mom's wedding dress to make it more modern and tailored my husband and his groomsmens suits! When you talk to him you can tell he knows exactly what he's doing and he communicates what he's going to do, how much it costs, and how long it will take clearly. His prices are extremely reasonable! Eddie's my go-to for any tailor needs. He's quick, reasonably priced, experienced, and friendly. Can't ask for more :) read more

Fast, friendly and skilled. Eddie is the best- his answer to "Can you..." is always "Yes, I can do that." I feel so lucky to have him in the neighborhood! read more

He is a trusted person to get your suits tailored. I went over here to get my suit for my wedding tailored. It turned out exactly how I envisioned it. Wearing a custom tailored suit makes you feel like a new person. It was my first time going there so it was a bit of a risk but it was perfect! I would definitely recommend him to men who are looking to get their suits tailored. Not sure how he performs with dresses and such. read more

Great Tailor. Was introduced to Eddie by my cousin who also gets his jerseys adjusted by him. He does a clean and great job adjusting jerseys and puts back in original form. Very happy with how my 3 jerseys turned out. Thanks Eddie and I will look for more old big jerseys I have for adjustment. read more

See all

Eddie's work is top quality and efficient. I've brought several pairs of jeans to him for hemming and I've been happy with the results. He's welcoming AND fast... I always end up accidentally paying for more parking meter time than I actually needed. I'm really appreciative to have Eddie and Taraval Tailors in the neighborhood! Would recommend whether you live nearby in the sunset or even farther away! read more

I've been getting my pants and jeans hemmed from Eddie for awhile now. I come in with all kinds of material pants (denim, cotton, polyester, etc.) and in return I get pants that fit me. The stitches always look great and I've never had a problem. I trust Eddie which is why I continue to go to him to get my pants hemmed. read more

Love this guy. I've gone here periodically and I really appreciate the tailor. He takes great pride in workmanship and his craft. I think he said he was trained at Nordstrom for many years. But, you can tell he cares about his work, not just the alterations meaning the lengths, etc., but "how" it's done (the correct stitching, etc). He's quick, but note that it's a one-person shop and he seems quite busy. In the past, he was accommodating for urgent requests (son's prom) but I don't think you can count on it given his demands. Overall, great. Very satisfied. read more

I purchased two suits from Indochino that was just an absolute mess. I looked like a small child in a grownup's clothing. I also needed them, basically, immediately for my first work trip for a new job. Eddie and Taraval Tailors saved the day. Worked really quickly and I wound up feeling confident and looking great in the suits once he did his magic. read more

Came to Taraval Tailors to have some curtains altered and I had a great experience. The service was very well priced compared to nearby spots and the quality was great! I even needed a pretty quick turnaround and for so many curtains I was very impressed. Would definitely recommend for any tailoring needs! read more

This is my go-to tailor. So quick, willing to expedite for quick jobs, and truly kind. Very fair prices. Thank you for being such a wonderful neighborhood tailor, Eddie! read more

I needed the sleeves shortened and the buttons moved on a blazer. The work was of poor quality (see photos). When I asked about the remaining stitches the guy said "no one sees them" since they are on the under side. Cost me $30 and my brand new jacket is pretty much ruined. read more

Taraval Tailors - Looks terrible and amateur work. - Sewing & Alterations Near Me - San Francisco, California

Eddie has been my tailor since he was the master at Nordstrom! Great service and a.nice guy!

He did a great job hemming my jeans and was affordable. I've got short legs and always need pants hemmed, so I'll definitely be back.

Eddie is top notch. He's been our trusted tailor for over two decades. From high end jeans, Armani suits and dresses, blazers, and slacks. Quick, high quality, great price, friendly service. Can't ask for anything else. read more

Eddie is the man. He understands modern cuts and moves quickly. I can see why he has so many loyal customers.

Ive been getting all my alterations done here for the past 3 years and couldn't be more satisfied. Whether it's a coat sleeve length, pant length hem, or just a button coming off, I've taken everything to Eddie and he always delivers. This has become my local, reliable tailor his prices are fair and it's always a quick turnaround. Can't recommend this place enough. read more

Professional tailor, knows very well what to do. I took my suit to do some alterations and the result was outstanding and amazing. Definitely recommend it :) read more

Eddie did an amazing job on my suit that I had purchased off the rack. I've had the suit for a year or so and hadn't gotten a chance to get it tailored. It was too boxy and Eddie did a fantastic job of getting it slimmed down to be very modern fitting. Couldn't have asked for a better experience and he was so quick with it. Will definitely go here for future items. read more

Eddie is a great tailor! He charges more than fair price and does what others would charge much more. He altered a dress for me that someone told me would cost $230! Eddie only charged me less than $50 and it was very hard to work with fabric. Best deal in the neighborhood :) Thanks Eddie read more

I have been coming to Taraval Tailors for a while now. Eddie does a great job! I usually come here to get my pants hemmed since I am in between sizes and can never find pants that fit me perfectly! He does a great job with the hemming. And I never had a problem with him. I thought since Eddie did a great job on some hemming he would be good with a suit. but as other reviewers has stated he is VERY disorganized. A month ago I brought a brand new suit to him to alter. I paid A LOT of money to get it altered but was ok with it. When I came to pick up my suit he told me he LOST my suit pants. BRAND NEW. The suit was for my best friends wedding. He said he will look for them and call me back. A full week goes by and its the day of my friends wedding. Since I live pretty close to Taraval Tailors I just went in and asked if he found them. He didn't. I figured I can just use another pair of slacks but was pretty bummed he lost my pants. 2 hours that same day I get a call that they found my paints. So clearly he didn't really look that hard. Probably wont be coming around with a suit but ill stick to getting my pants hemmed here. read more

I had a dress shortened here. While he was pinning it I said it was too long and please make it shorter, I do not want it to touch the floor. I got it home and the hem is uneven-- it is longer in the front than in the back, it touches the floor and I'm walking all over it. This was $20! Now I have to pay someone else to re-shorten it. I'm very disappointed, because they were very nice and I drove waaaay out of my neighborhood for their good reviews. Money and time wasted! They were very friendly and speedy, though. read more

I had a suit jacket taken in and the sleeves shorten. The jacket looks good. They gave recommendations to what parts of my jacket needs tailoring. I would recommend this place to a friend. Tip: call and ask for a quote before going in read more

Very disorganized and unprofessional. I came in during business hours, but was told, "she'll be back in 20 mins." Came back and another man said he'd be able to help me. Had him fix a couple of seams and fit me for my shirt to be altered. Returned to pick up my stuff, but he said the shirt needed to be fitted again. Uh, why? He said he had taken some pins out and couldn't remember where they went. Ok... That was a huge inconvenience for me because I was only in SF for a few weeks and I was actually leaving the next day. Thankfully, my sister agreed to come back another day to pick up the shirt for me. I asked for my claim ticket back to give to her, but he couldn't find it, even though I had handed it to him not two minutes prior. Unfortunately, I won't be able to wear that shirt until my next trip back, which won't be for another 6+ months. Also, my other sister had dropped off her bridesmaid dress for altering. I asked the man if I could pick up her dress along with my clothes. He looked, but after several minutes said that he only had one bridesmaid dress and it belonged to another girl. My sister came in herself and they were able to locate it eventually. However, there was another customer also looking for their clothes, which the man couldn't find. Seems to be a common occurrence. read more

I saw Eddie had experience working with Indochino which is what led me to his shop. Eddie did a great job of work on my dress pants. Will come back for future alterations! read more

I love this tailor. Pricing is great and the service is even better. I got a couple of pants hemmed and the finished product was excellent. The whole process was easy and simple. I am really grateful for the great work. read more

Eddie is great! The tailoring and precision that he was able to accomplish on my blazer was amazing. He took in the arm width, brought in the sides to give the blazer shape and it fit like a glove...so many complements. He's a one man show and the quality of work is worth the price. HIGHLY recommend to anyone. read more

Eddie has been my go to tailor for a while now. Diesel Jeans, Hugo Boss suits, (ok, i have a limited wardrobe, but I know what works for me) he's been consistently great. I've taken dozens of pieces to Eddie, and i've been clear and reasonable about my requests. And its been all good. I am about to take 4 more suits to him. I check the hours on yelp, and I saw the negative reviews. First, There are limits as to what ANY tailor can do. Fabric and thread cannot extend beyond the constraints of the laws pf physics. I would imagine that they have upwards of 20-40 clients daily. As of 2/16/15, I read all the negative reviews on yelp (1-2*) They seem to be about: 1) Taking a bridesmaids dress in 3-4 sizes, complaint: dress not snug enough ((good luck with that, groomsmen) 2) having a dress shortened, complaint: price ($20), and not short enough (Are they ever, really?) 3) needed to have dress sleeves shortened on NYE, unclear about holiday hours (what, he wasn't open till 9pm on NYE??) 4) original hem jeans, $15 cost and wrong color thread (Somewhere, I hear birds chirping) 5) skirt shortening, $25 (price) 5 one to two star reviews. These reviews are in my opinion based on unreasonable requests, and I don't know if they would EVER be satisfied. For eddy and his staff to earn five stars, they would have to bring in a dress 3-4 sizes, be open on NYE, and work at less than 10 bucks an hour. If 15-25 bucks is too much for your alterations, you're living in the wrong city. read more
