Master Paul’s Tailoring

I have been looking for a tailor shop for awhile now. I needed to get some hems re-​sewn that had fallen out, straps put on a dress, and a skirt taken in. I went in without an appointment on a Thursday at lunch and was told all 8 pieces I brought in would be done by Saturday morning. The initial drop-​off took about 15 minutes (including me trying on pieces for her to measure). The prices were very fair and all 8 pieces were done very well and on time. I will definitely go back again. This is definitely a no-​frills place, but the workmanship is well done, the turnaround time excellent, and the shop clean.

Been bringing items here for alteration for a few years now and never had any issues to speak of. Tina is very skilled and seems to spot issues I’ve overlooked. Their prices are fair and they get you in and out quickly. Just a no-​frills but efficient tailoring shop.

Came here 3 times and had them tailor 10 garments for me. The first 2 times I came here I had to come in 3 times for them to take the measurements and tailor them accordingly, which I didn’t really mind since they finally got the alterations right and it usually takes a new tailor 1 – 2 times and a few alterations to get used to how I want shirts/​slacks tailored.
This last time I came here, though, paid ~$ 200 for my alterations of 3 shirts and 1 pair of dress pants. I had to come in 5 times for the shirt alterations… not even joking, 5 times and the alterations of 1 of the shirts and the pants still don’t fit quite right (which they definitely should considering the amount paid). I appreciate their persistence in trying to fix the alterations, but there is clearly a disconnect from when they do the measurements to the actual alterations they make.
Also annoying: if you’re a professional and charging professional prices for your services, don’t ask the client how you should do your job. I gave directions on what I wanted done/​how I wanted the clothes to fit, but was constantly asked how they should do the alterations… not professional.

Fast and friendly service! Was in and out in about 5 minutes, will make this my go to place for any hemming needs in the future!

I’m rather specify in my tailoring and Master Paul’s gets it right all the time.
The only place I will use and highly recommended. Great service too!!!

I brought my wedding dress here and wanted so many changes and knew they would have to completely cut it up and basically remake it… I was super nervous to bring it anywhere by my trusted dry cleaner highly recommended Paul’s so I gave them a try. I am so happy with the results! They altered it perfectly to what I wanted and it looks beautiful! I’ll definitely be back for anything I need tailored in the future!

Had to get a vest tailored the same day for work and they were so fast and did an excellent job altering it exactly how I asked. Very affordable! I was told by my work that it would cost 200 to probably alter and I ended up paying 50 and got it the same day right before my shift! Great service :) Definitely recommend with pieces you need done fast and perfectly altered the first time!

Master Paul’s saved my brother’s wedding. My sister and I realized our bridesmaid’s dresses needed hemming two hours before the ceremony. We called Master Paul’s and the woman tailor said just bring them in. She had them done in plenty of time and they were perfect. We are so grateful.

Attention brides! Stay away from this place. I just picked up my wedding dress and i couldn’t help myself but cry. Okay. When i first went to pick up my dress it was unevenly hemmed. Thats okay. easy fix. on the second time i went there to pick up my dress i saw that my dress was cut off too short. Hmm okay. I guess i will not wear high heels… I came home and tried them. OMG… I SEE DAMAGES ALL OVER ON MY DRESS (Im getting angry again) damages are too obvious even my insensitive bf told me its noticeable :(it looks like she stepped on my dress by accident while working on the dress :(Im sooo sad… my wedding is next month :(what do i doooo… Sigh, i guess i need to find a dress again…

These guys are excellent and really good people. They’ve tailored several items for me perfectly.

A huge shout out to this tailor place! My brother came into town and bought an outfit today for his HS reunion that was TONIGHT! Yes, we were looking for SAME DAY service and I called Paul’s tailoring (from the pay registers at Macys as he was buying his outfit) to see if they do that. She said yes and I’m like «Are you sure? Like TODAAAY.» She assured me it would take an hour. We headed over and sure enough she was a woman of her word. Pants, button up shirt, and a vest all tailored in less than an hour. And she did a fabulous job. Tina (I think that was her name) was so sweet and patient. Though I felt stressed because our time was cutting close she was perfectly calm. The shop had a TV and a comfy couch and I was able to nurse my little baby while we waited too. Another plus: 7 – 11 next door which meant slurpees too! :)

I really feel that in the three years since my last review, Master Paul’s has improved considerably. Enough to the point where I am able to trust the tailor with some of my very latest and best suits (ranging from $ 1K to $ 5K each), pants ($ 50-​$ 300) and dress shirts ($ 50-​$ 400 each).
In the last two months I’ve visited Master Pauls at least 4 times and have been satisfied all four times.
What changed? I finally feel that the level of communication and consultation has improved enough to where I feel confident that my garment is in good hands. I still recommend that as a customer one should ask enough questions to ensure your garment is tailored the way you want it. That said, I will be back for a fifth, sixth and seventh time at this establishment because the consultations and ensuing results have been solid.
«Realistic Expectations»
Master Paul’s is an excellent all around alterations shop and I would gather can perform most of your alterations needs well. As someone who is passionate about clothing and the craftsmanship that is involved, I’d say something more specific like jean hemming is better taken care of at place dedicated to altering high end jeans. Through no fault of Master Paul’s is my case for the side recommendation. There are specialty shops that are better equipped (equipment wise) and experience wise for certain goods. Tailors have strengths in certain areas as well (hence I have several «go to» tailors myself, depending on the job required).
A well deserved four stars for Master Paul’s!

I’ve only had one experience here as I write this review but it was a good one and I plan on coming back. I took in a pair of shorts because they were a bit too big on me but they looked like new so I didn’t want to just give them away. Anyways the Asian lady assisted me and took my measurements and was done in about 1 minute. I left the shorts and got to pick them up about three possibly four days later and paid $ 25 bucks. The shorts looked good to me and fit much better than what they used too. If you need something done quickly they may be able to do things faster than what I got mine done but I told her it was no rush and I could pick them up whenever.

Every time I come to master pauls I am always pleased with the quality of service and the warm welcome. Did I mention the awesome chihuahua? Their prices are always fair and they are extremely helpful. Always professional and they know what they are doing. I will continue to go to pauls tailor for all my alteration needs without question. You just cant go wrong!

I have been going to this Tailor since 2003 and don’t plan to go anywhere else! Although I was at first referred to go here to hem a concert dress, I have since come to get these done too — tailor suit pants and jackets, hem jeans, alter theme party costumes, replace buttons, extend elastic waistbands, and re-​design favorite clothes items to have new life in my closet (personal favorite: transforming snug dresses into work-​appropriate skirts).
The fitting rooms and stage are always nice and clean. The staff are friendly and recognize me when I walk in the door. I buy inexpensive clothes on purpose so that Master Paul’s Tailor can make them even better for me! That tailoring costs barely equates to how great I feel in my ‘new’ clothes after they’ve worked their sewing magic.

Great quick and convenient tailoring service. I came in around a month ago to tailor one of my lower-​end suits for cuff and pant lengths as well as waist fit. Finished everything in around 3 days and spend around $ 50 including tax – which was pretty good considering the quality of the service. Would come again, although I may consider another store for higher-​end tailoring services.

Needed to look for a new tailor shop after finding out Spatola closed (RIP Benny!). Came here recently to get some dress shirts slimmed down a bit and they did a wonderful job. Dropped them off on a Friday and they were ready by the following Wednesday. Prices are reasonable and service was great. Say hi to their dog when you stop by!

Been coming here for over 6 years after being referred by Macy’s and won’t go anywhere else. Owned by a very nice Korean couple, and their cute dog is always at the store.
Had everything done from fitting suits to patching holes in my slacks. I once tore a hole (I thought unfixable) on my rear pocket from constant pressure from my wallet. They used a very thin patch, almost translucent, and sewed it on seamlessly. You can’t even tell it’s there and it’s held up perfectly the last 3 years.
Prices are low, quality is superb, fast turn-​around times, and very polite.

The tailoring at this place is horrible. I too was referred by Macy’s which turned out to be a huge mistake like a couple other reviewers have noted. I needed 3 suit pants fitted and 2 jackets taken in. The first time I got them back all the hems were at least an inch short of where they had been measured, and one of the jacket vents in back was sticking out like a kite. They had to redo the hems, which are uneven but at least aren’t too short now. After blaming the errant jacket vent on the jacket being too short, my butt making it stick out etc, the lady there refunded my money for that item. My girlfriend had a pair of jeans hemmed at the same time and those weren’t even or straight either. This place is cheap but if you are altering nice clothes or need precision go elsewhere. I’ll have to find another tailor to fix the jacket they altered.
Update — the next time I was at Macy’s, I mentioned my experience to the salesman who had referred me. He told me of a bad experience with her as well. Apparently Master Paul did fantastic work, but the woman doing most of the tailoring now is not him, and is not as good. The tailor in house at Macy’s looked at the jacket and said she had pulled the stitches too tight making the vent flare out.

Great place to go to for alterations and owned by a very friendly Korean couple! Asians just always seem to work wonders with a sewing machine.
Price are very reasonable. I had 2 pairs of suit pants hemmed for $ 7 each and had a button resewn on a jacket for $ 5. I dropped them off on a Friday and it was ready on Tuesday. They did an excellent job.
