I was able to get a piano as a gift from a new neighbor who had bought a foreclosed house across the street, and the former owners had abandoned the piano, among other things. It clearly hadn't been tuned or taken care of for several years, and I wasn't sure how it would sound when it was tuned. I found Istvan Mihok online after having called other piano tuning service companies and not having heard back from them for several days. Istvan was the only one who answered the phone, and was courteous, kind, and flexible with his willingness in traveling to our place in the west suburbs. Istvan was a gentleman, and was a pleasure to have here working on the piano with precision and an ear with 30 years of experience. It was fun, being a musician, and hearing how over the two hours he worked to raise the pitch and get everything tuned, how this beat up old piano I never thought would sound better than a 1920s speakeasy upright piano, ended up having a very crisp, light, and pleasant tone. He did a wonderful job, played a little song afterwards, adjusted a couple of hammers that were sticking, and was on his way. I spent the next hour playing and enjoying my good-as-new piano. I highly recommend Istvan to everyone. He was a pleasure to have at our house, and when we move back to the northwest suburbs in the several months, I will be calling him up again for a tuning/pitch raise. Thanks again Istvan! read more

Mr.Mihok tuned my piano last week and I couldn't be more pleased with the results. The instrument hadn't been tuned in 15 years and he was able to bring it back to pitch. He went above and beyond by adjusting some of the mechanics, keys, etc... and did so at a great savings to me, thus avoiding any outsourcing. He is one of a dying breed of true craftsmen in his field and is fee is extraordinarily reasonable. Wonderful service!!! read more

What a fantastic business! Istvan came over and did a pitch raise and tuning on my upright Yamaha in about two and a half hours. Very detailed and professional, great w/ dogs wink emoticon;) and can't beat the price! My piano sounded so great afterward I literally could not stop playing it all night and the next morning. Will definitely call The Best Pianoman again and recommend to every piano owner I know. read more

Pitch raise tuning Mr.Mihok called right before the appointment and said he would be late. And then, It was only minutes, so I thought it was very thoughtful . As he tuned my piano, I could hear that it was not in pitch and therefore I was thoroughly satisfied with the result, because he included the pitch raise tuning for the same price. And it's sounds just lovely. Very good experience. read more
