Amazing work!!!! I brought in two pairs of Levi’s with tears at the crotch seam, not an easy task. But, they truly did an awesome job!! Very friendly quick and professional. Thank you so much!!

I brought in a few items that needed alterations/repairs. One coat needed new lining, one needed to have some loose threads and separating layers fixed, and lastly a pair of dress pants that were too big. To say the results were phenomenal would be an understatement. Best fitting pants I’ve ever had. Will definitely return

Hands down the best quality and priced alterations business around. Last summer I attended an Indian destination wedding, I had ordered 3 lehengas online and even with providing my measurements they were very off. I had 1 week before my trip and immediately rushed over to get them altered. Not only was my order ready a couple days before my trip, but everything fit perfectly and was done very well.

They are amazing! They make everything fit better and look nicer on me. So happy I finally found a tailor I absolutely love! Their prices are also reasonable.
