They have helped me out on several occasions! And have done some amazing work! I bought a dress for my daughter’s wedding! They basically reconstructed the dress! Which was so unique it had 3 Dimensional flowers on it! They really did an amazing job very talented people and a pleasure to work with!

I had List a considerable amount of weight and didn’t know if they were able to be altered! I brought in several pairs of dress slacks and 3 suits 2 sport coats ! Marco pined every garment and and I was amazed that everything fit like a glove! He truly is a talented man! I would ever go anywhere else for my alterations! They’re the best around! Professional, kind and reasonable prices! Thank you all for for incredible service and hospitality! Gerard Maddalena

As much as I would have loved to submit a good review because the friendliness of the staff, unfortunately paying $250 for 2 hems to be done on a dress completely ruined the experience for me. Each hem came out to be $125. The picture is added for reference. Charging people $125 per simple hem/alteration is outrageous.

The entire staff but especially Marco deserve 7 stars. I called in a panic on a Friday before a black tie event on Saturday and they managed to adjust my tux pants (that I hadn't worn in >20 years 🤦♂️) perfectly. I've learned my lesson and won't be so last minute like this again, but huge thanks and respect for taking such good care of me. I'm a loyal customer forever.
