Northeast Tailor

I am only giving her two because at least she was nice.
I took two dresses in to have them taken in at the shoulders. Pretty standard stuff. She told me it would be a week, but to call first because it’s prom season. I call on the day she said they would be ready and she said giver her 30 minutes. I told her I can pick them up the next day. I stroll in the next day at 11 and they aren’t ready. Seriously? I said I would come back at one. Spoiler alert; they were not ready at one, she said that she would «do them real quick.»
I don’t want someone to take a week and then only spend 5 minutes on the items, I want her to take all the time she needs. She also told me it would be $ 18 per item because she would have to take them in at two places. It was obvious (because she used white thread on a blue dress) that she did not tailor them in two places. She was charging me double what my old place charged. Also a part of a closure was missing when I got it home.
I asked for a discount because of the delays and she gave me %20 off the already inflated price. Like someone else said, if you are willing to babysit your clothes, go here. She just exhausted me until I wanted my clothes back.

DO NOT! I repeat… DO NOT go to this place. I’ve read the reviews and figured the one bad couldn’t be so bad. Walking into the door, no one greeted me until about 10min later. There was only on person working and she was very short when talking to me as though I was interrupting things she had to do. And yes there seemed to be an awful lot of clothes here. (One person). I just need a shirt taken in, she said it would be done in a couple of days. I asked if she was sure, again, in an annoyed tone she said yes. I tried the shirt on and waited another length of time for her to size. Here’s what sealed the deal for me… Upon sizing she says «this looks like a woman’s shirt». I laughed and said «no it’s a mens» she goes on to insist «No. It’s a woman’s» (this the most she’s said to me and it would be this). I’m never easily insulted but… as this was a new shirt with «Zara MAN» tag still on it, I needed to point that out… All the while taking the fitting pins out of the shirt while explaining to her that she is and will potentially lose a lot of business. She seemed un-​phased. But hey. I’d rather go someplace where I can walk out with the comfort of what I’m paying for. As I think further… I don’t give a crap if I were a cross dresser, you should never feel comfortable to question your customers garments. JUST DO WHAT IS ASKED IN A TIMELY FASHION!

Decided to give this place a go, figured the positive experiences out weighed the one bad. Although they ended up making my situation right it was one I would have rather not experienced. I brought my bridesmaid dress in on Feb 4 for some minor alterations. The lady told me and wrote on my ticket that it would be complete the following Thursday. I came in the following Friday and she said it was not done and that she could do it in an hour and I could come back. Because this is located near my work and not my home I waited until the next Tuesday to come back (the 17^th). I walk in and again I am told it is not ready and that she can do it in an hour if I want to come back. Not wanting to risk leaving again and it not being ready again I sat in the lobby and waited. In the end the alterations were complete and they lowered the amount by $ 10.00 and I was satisfied. If you don’t mind babysitting your alterations then this place is fine, if you don’t want to have to worry about them, this might not be the place.

The lady seems very nice. She told me to comeback after work, I did, she said she didn’t start. I told her I would be back on Saturday, 3 days later. Went back, knocked on door and she didn’t answer door. I went back week later, forgot ticket, told no ticket no items. Called her gave the ticket # told her I was on the way, no problem, arrived an hour later, she laughed and said I didn’t give her enough time. Ok. Well 5^th visit brought wife since it was her items, we looked and didn’t locate. After explaining they were new items needing hemmed, she said OH those, she brought them from under a pile on the side, had another persons name and ticket on them. She offered to have them done in a few days. Declined took elsewhere. A couple of the times I went she seemed unconcerned. It wasn’t until I brought the boss (my wife) they seemed to be on the same sense of urgency. Wont be a next time here. She was pleasant after she located the items.

This place is great. Owner seems to always be there, even after hours. My suit pants for my wedding were hemmed and tapered to look way better than they did off the rack. My brother needed a hem fixed that was done terribly by another tailor, we were able to walk in and walk back out within 20 minutes with his slacks fixed. Amazing service at a great price. You can’t ask for anything more.

My hair stylist recommended this tailor, as she brought a bridesmaids dress in here that was flawlessly brought from a size 8 to a 2. I brought my wedding dress in to be fitted, hemmed, bustled, and have sleeves added. The tailor really took her time, told me what would work and what wouldn’t, and made sure I was satisfied before I left my fitting. Her turnover time and pricing is unbeatable, for absolutely amazing work! I ended up bringing my veil to her to have snaps put on the comb, and a custom made sash after her work on my dress came out so well. I had all this stuff done for a fraction of the cost the boutique I purchased my dress at quoted me just to get my dress hemmed, and her work is wonderful. I cannot recommend her enough!

Needed VERY last minute alterations on two Lilly Pulitzer dresses for my dad’s wedding this weekend. I called yesterday and she said normally it takes 4 – 5 days but she would get them done overnight since I leave town today! Well the dresses look awesome and I’m thrilled she could do them in such a short time frame. Will definitely use this business again

I took in a dress that I had bought online but it needed to be taken in AND it was a sweater dress so I was skeptical. They made this dress look like it was originally made for me! I couldn’t be happier with their service!

Great workmanship and Jenny the owner is so sweet and nice. I’ve been coming to Jenny since my college days and she’s still my tailor 10 years later. No matter where I move to I always come back because I always get exactly what I ask for. I tell all my friends and family about Jenny and her great work!
Thanks,

Dropped off my pants to be hemmed, went to Chick-​fil-​a to get a sandwich and when I got back, she was done. Freakin awesome!

I have been using Northeast Tailor in Hurst Texas for years. The seamtress can do everything — not just alterations but also repairs, restyles, costumes, and even custom garmet builds. I have taken her just a rough sketch and pile of material and she has created a work of art — literally!!! You can’t go worng with Northeast Tailor!!!
