The owner of this business bullies people online. That behaviour is disgusting and unacceptable so I wont be supporting this business.

Didnt use but interacted with their Instagram page which the owner used to promote homophobia. Disgusted and if the other reviews are any indication, a place that doesnt deserve to be supported. Note that their online bullying was from their BUSINESS account.

The most unprofessional, rude, and disorganized tailor I have ever been to. This man has arguably ruined my sisters wedding as she cannot even wear her dress anymore. The place was also dirty, ONLY takes cash and doesnt tell you before hand. He also quoted us at 180$ and ended up charging 350$ and didnt call to inform of the price change The worst part, he absolutely BUTCHERED my sisters dress. He claims that he did not take in the waist, but most definitely did as the dress does not even do up anymore. This dress fit my sister fine in the waist at the first appointment, but the man basically told her to not gain any weight. In the last 6 months, my sister has even lost EIGHT pounds and now the dress somehow does not even do up!!!! His excuse was that she was probably just on her period!!! Talk about a misogynistic. He also ruined one of the straps as the threads all came apart and the small beads are falling off. He was also way behind schedule and now it is weeks before her wedding and she is scrambling to find a cheap dress to wear instead. ** update: we took the dress to a different place and discovered that he did in fact take in the dress over 3 inches and tried to hide it but sewing a layer over top of his horrible sew lines. The wonderful lady we went to instead was able to fix the dress within a day even though this dude said that theres nothing to do and accused my sister of getting fat and/or being on her period.

Was waiting to pick up a piece with my baby. Guy looked at me and before saying hi or asking what I needed, told me I couldn't come in with my stroller because strollers "don't do well with this kind of stuff". I let him know I wasn't trying to enter, I was standing at the front counter waiting to pick up and pay. He then told me the piece I was picking up would be $50 + tax, cash. I didn't have cash with me so I left and my husband went to pick it up later that day. The guy was in a pleasant mood with him, only charging him $50 (?) Just an FYI to other moms or people in mobility devices that you won't be able to enter the shop and might be notified of that in a condescending way. Service: Men's clothing alterations
