Elegant Tailor and Cleaners

they really helped me out in a pinch– had them steam a chiffon gown in under 24 hours which i was told wasnt possible by a few other cleaners before calling them. only negative was the cost– $ 25 for a steaming, which was about $ 10 more than other places in the area i tried. maybe being in del mar the prices were a little higher?
regardless, they got the job done in my short timeline and i appreciate that!
gal working the front was super nice and helpful and very friendly!

Look no farther for a tailor — this place is definitely the best and I could not be more thrilled with them!
I needed a custom item made and I called around to several local tailors — none were very pleasant to talk to, they gave pricey ranges in terms of a quote, a couple even tried to disagree with me the way it needed to be done instead of listening to what I wanted. Then luckily I called Elegant Tailor and I knew right away my search could end. Everyone I interacted with was extremely friendly and helpful at all times — calling in on the phone for the quote, dropping off the items, and picking up the finished work.
Tracy, the tailor, is AMAZING! She understood exactly what I wanted and gave a very reasonable quote. It was ready to pick up exactly when promised for the exact price quoted, and it is absolutely perfect — everything I was hoping for when I decided to go custom! I am truly thankful to have found Tracy and I cannot recommend her enough.

I have these pants that I’ve been meaning to get hemmed for the longest time but didn’t want to spend too much money on it. This place hemmed it for only $ 8.99!
I was prepared for the pants to come back poorly done for that price, but there was perfect stitching. After that experience, this is my go-​to place for dry cleaning, too. Super affordable and quick, quality service.
I HIGHLY recommend coming to Tracy!

Tracy did an amazing job altering my wedding dress. She removed breast cups and boning and was able to take in the bodice by at least one dress size. I came in for two different fittings and couldn’t be happier with the quality of work. I will definitely be returning here to have more garments altered. I’m so happy I found this place!

I needed same day service for an alteration and came across this place on Unilocal.I called and they said no problem. It was a bit of a drive but I needed it done so off I went. Dropped the pants off at noon and got them back at 5:30 just like they promised. The couple that runs the shop (assuming they are a couple) were super nice when I dropped off and the young gal was super nice as well when I picked up. And their prices are extremely reasonable. I will definitely make the drive to use them again!

Tracy did an outstanding job hemming my wedding gown and adding length to my rehearsal day dress! She and her daughter were super helpful and nice throughout the process and went out of their way to find an extra special lace trim for my dress. The dress looks better than when I bought it, with the extra trim they added! Excellent prices and service– I’ve found my tailor in North county! Thanks so much Tracy!

Wonderful place and unbeatable prices!
Tracy is a sweetheart and does an amazing job. I came here to get my wedding dress done because she had previously altered my work suits for me. She was super patient, figured out how to best trim the dress, and even helped restyle the train for me. She also transformed the straight across neckline to a v shaped one just like I wanted. The dress fits like a dream! I highly recommend this place if you need to alter anything, especially your wedding dress!

Great spot in Del Mar! Very affordable. I had a great experience getting my nice suit tailored and I will use this Tailor for any future projects. Thank you so much!

Best dry cleaner in SD, hands down. And the prices, especially for snooty Del Mar, are amazingly low.

Found them in a pinch after items I needed done had not been completed as promised by a different tailor. They could not have been nicer. Just a simple hem which they did in a jiffy but they even called to confirm the way I wanted it done. Definitely found my new go-​to for alterations!

I wish I would have discovered this place years ago! I have INSANELY sensitive skin and have gone to numerous dry cleaning places.
Lots of places claim to be «organic» when they are anything but safe for your skin. When I get my clothes back, I can tell whether petrochemicals were used or not due to my skin’s reaction.
It took me forever to finally find a place that I trust to take my clothes to and I owe it all to Elegant!
Usually green cleaners are more expensive and I wouldn’t mind to pay more for the quality of work they do here.
However, when the owner rang up my bill the very first time, I WAS SHOCKED! The prices here are so affordable!
I never would have thought that their prices were that reasonable considering that they’re located in Del Mar. Even places that I’ve gone to in Encinitas and Carmel Valley are much more expensive.
I drive 20 mins from my house just to go to Elegant because they do such an excellent job at such excellent prices!
Also, I love the fact that the owner remembers my name. She is so sweet and always treats me as if I’m family!

This place is wonderful and did such a beautiful job tailoring two very intricate Indian sarees with detailed beading. The pricing was affordable (even with the heavy beading!) and they were friendly and easy to speak with. The only hiccup I encountered was when I called to confirm that they were ready for pickup, the sarees weren’t done (it was exactly one week later) but this was attributed to the heavy beading. When I explained that I needed them done ASAP for a wedding that weekend, they worked to get it done by the end of that day, and neither job looked rushed at all. Thank you, ladies for your hard work!

I came down for the weekend from LA to del mar to visit my cousins. Last minute we got invited to a nice event and my cousin let me borrow one of her dresses. Yet, I needed it adjusted in the waist and made a little shorter for it to fit me properly. I came into this shop pretty late after I found out about the event happening the next day. Tracy the owner was so kind when she greeted me and she even stayed open late for me while I tried on the dress and showed her what I wanted. She was so nice and helpful with all my requests! The dress was ready the next day and exactly what I wanted! I was so happy with it and felt great all night at the event! This is the place to go for alterations and cleanings. They are affordable, efficient, and best of all they have amazing and personable customer service.

Wow this place was amazing! I had a simple alteration no more than $ 20 worth. I went to 5 different shops before I stumbled upon Elegance cleaners and alteration all 5 had insanely high prices and were beyond rude. Elegance cleaners and alteration was so helpful, fast, and beyond helpful! I am so glad to have found such an amazing place that i trust for my future alterations! I definitely recommend trying out Elegance cleaners and alteration! You will not regret it!

Wanted to like this place, as people working there are nice. But I ended up visiting the store 3 times (on ready dates they gave me) and each time was told that my order was not ready. It’s not hard to phone someone and let them know this, I wouldn’t have minded. Wasted a lot of my time.
But the worst part, the unforgivable part, was when I received the clothes back that had been altered, it was literally the worst quality of work I have ever seen!
I have been to many tailor/​alterations places, and the quality of work here, honestly I could have done a better job myself, which is terrible. The quality was honestly extremely poor and I feel like they almost ruined my clothes, I may even take them somewhere else to fix what they did and pay for all over again.
So disappointing.

This place is wonderful! The lady who I believe is the owner of the store is very sweet and nice. She remembers you and your face and always greets you with a smile. Those little things make a big difference in life and business.
I usually go there for alterations of my shirts, since I am kind of skinny and very tall. They do their job perfectly, always on time and their prices are very reasonable.
Highly recommend there!

I like this cleaner because the owner (?) is very nice and she altered my Erdem dress very well. She also altered my maternity pants from low band to full panel which, she did an awesome job. Dry cleaning is good quality as well!

overall great service. Pian, the owner, is very nice and her prices are by far the most reasonable out of all the other places I’ve tried. I had 4 work dresses cleaned for $ 8 each. Most places wanted to charge me over $ 12.

This review is long overdue. I came THE DAY BEFORE PROM, asking to have my dress altered because, as a petite Asian girl, dresses are always too long on me. There was a small curtain so that I could change into my dress with my heels on, and I forgot the owner’s name but she gladly fixed the dress for me and so that it came the perfect length. And there was no rush fee. I could not have been happier with the service.

If I could rank Negative Stars I would!
DO NOT USE THIS CLEANERS unless you do not mind some buttons or snaps of your clothing to be missing. I had a jacket cleaned only to find the top snap missing once I picked up my clothing. They told me it was missing when it was dropped off, which I know is completely false. They refused to believe me and refused to adjust any price for the cost of the cleaning. A terrible way to run business and I will not return or recommend to anyone. PLEASE STAY AWAY!!!
