French Tailor

Outrageous prices for nothing. It’s a scam.

My co-​worker brought me here one day saying they had great hotdogs and knew that I liked hotdogs as I always have a stash in the office fridge. After taking about it so much, I was disappointed with what I got. The hot dog was still a bit cold and the onions weren’t crisp at all.

Do not go here for tailoring! They get one star because they actually did hem my husband’s pants. They do not get any of the other 4 stars because they did such a bad job!
The lady was so charming that my husband forgot to try on his pants when he picked them up. He figured that since she measured so carefully, she probably knew what she was doing. (She charged $ 50 to hem a pair of pants.)
Got home, tried on the pants and they were all wrong. He took them back, and she agreed to fix them. Picked up the pants, and she said «that will be $ 10 dollars more». He said no, I paid $ 50 for you to hem them, so you can’t charge me more to to it right! She insisted on the $ 10, whining «it was so much WORK to do it again». She argued and whined and said «it’s $ 10 or leave the pants».
We told her this is a terrible business practice, and we would tell others and she said «do what you want». Ok, I WANT to never give her any more business. Terrible place. And the food offerings do look pretty nasty too. They’ve got some nerve.
(they got 1 star because they actually did hem the pants, else it would be no stars)

The only reason I stopped here for a sandwich was because I was in Saratoga and had an Entertainment book coupon. For starters, the old lady behind the counter didn’t want to accept my coupon telling me it wasn’t their coupon. What? Funny because the name and address matched and it was valid through 2012! The old man also working behind the counter had to come over and after five minutes of inspecting it, finally agreed to accept it. Good thing, too, because sandwiches are $ 6.50, small bag of chips are $ 2.00 and a can of soda is $ 2.00!!!
Outrageous, but I at least expected to get a good, fresh sandwich for the price… WRONG!!! I asked for everything but onions on a turkey sandwich. Here’s what I got… an over-​sized sourdough hotdog bun, mayo, mustard, two slices of Kraft American cheese (yuck!) and five slices of oily turkey from a plastic pouch like you would buy on sale at Safeway. That’s it! No lettuce, no tomatoes, no peppers, no produce AT ALL! Pathetic. Reminded me of a sandwich you’d throw together at home after you’ve run out of everything in the fridge.
I hope their tailoring is good because their food and prices sure ARE NOT!

Okay minus 1.5 stars for $$$ but this place is so classic and it has to be expensive to be profitable! It is simply delicious old fashioned food… Maybe I’m bias because the perfect way to end a labor day hike at castle rock was with a hot dog and ice cream :)
I definitely think I could see myself coming here 1x a month definitely not any more frequent than that since the menu is quite small and I’m not really into hot dogs. but the Polish Dog here was sooo yummy! Big & with a toasted bun… mmm ! Even though I couldn’t even finish the hot dog i HAD to get one of the blue bunny strawberry ice creams too. omg strawberry shortcake soooo good!
So yes it is a little bit pricey for what it is, but I just loved it.

This was so bad that it was funny. First of all it is not a Deli. When you walk in there are suits hanging on the wall on the other side there is a counter to order food. An elderly woman and a man were there. There were three sandwiches to order from and a hot dog. My husband and I were not sure we were going to stay but we did. He had the hot dog and I had a turkey sandwich. the older lady made the sandwich. the sliced bread was dry and s few days old. the turkey was just boring cold cuts. We ate our lunch and when I paid she overcharged by by about a dollar. When I pointed it out she put her hand on my shoulder and said «Don’t worry about it. I gave you a good sandwich.» I gave up but did not tip. Everything was BAD. Run do not walk away from this place.

This place is horrible. They actually advertised on
that they have a menu to order off of. So we went there before our big hike in the park, and the whole place was dark. I actually had to call the place and check to see if they are open. A sweet old lady answered the phone and said they are open, we can come in. We walked and she walked out behind the counter to turn on the lights, and said we could order off a tiny menu (5 items) on the wall. We each ordered one thing, and we quickly realized that these are all frozen food she had stored away in her freezer! What the hell? This is not even a real deli. There are no fresh ingredients around at all! The old lady scrambled around after she took our orders and started to heat up the frozen food, and she obviously forgot to check, because our food was still half frozen when we received it. The plastic spoons and forks are a mix-​n-​match from Wendy’s and other fast food establishments. We asked her for a glass of water, and she proceeded to the fridge to open a bottle of water for us ($ 3). I was shocked when I saw the bill, each frozen food was $ 5, and it was not even edible! The old lady was very sweet, but we didn’t come here to find a grandmother, we came here for lunch. for the whole time, there wasn’t one single customer that walked through the doors, now I know why.
Before we left, the old lady asked us «Did you enjoy the food?» We didn’t want to offend her, so we lied, but we vowed to tell our Unilocal friends, you included, to not go to this place for food.

I felt really bad for this lady due to the harsh review, and upon doing some research, it looks like this mainly is a tailoring service that offers some quick snacks as well, not a full-​service café.
