Bellevue Custom Tailor

Mr B!
One of the nicest people You will ever meet! His attention to detail is exceptional. If you need to have your clothes tailored or a suit made, Mr. B is your man!!! Thank you!!! P. S. I have never had a time issue with any promised date for pickup.

Let start off Mr. B is a nice guy. But if you need your clothes back in a timely fashion go else where. I took him my suit jacket and I told him I needed it back in 2 weeks and even the date. I called on the morning of and it still wasn’t ready. And I didn’t want a rush job on my expensive jacket, I allow him a few extra days. If you have a time stamp on getting your clothes back, don’t go here.

Mr. B does quality tailoring.

Mr B I luv ya (with a v not an O… I don’t know him like that lol) and you do a great job but you must admit that you often get overwhelmed with work. I come here often and my items are always superbly altered BUT it can take sooooooo long! and, he has gone up on his prices. For quality, I would definitely suggest Bellevue tailor, if you need something done on the fly, forget about it! But you know what they say, you cant rush excellence… I say, it’d be excellent if you put a rush on my ish!

Mr B will promise you will have your clothes in a week but it will take more like 2 months. This is an extremely unprofessional establishment, You will be lucky if the store is open since they randomly close the store at will. Since all his services are prepaid Mr B works at his own very slow pace. When I finally did get back some of my suits I was forced to goto another tailor because they were too tight despite going back to MR B four times.

He’s a very nice guy however my alterations were all off when I got them home– as I didn’t have the time to try on all the pieces I took to him. There were not completed on time and he’s not on a regular schedule so your always calling back to try and catch him. Pricing was just ok. Considering it’s a 200 shirt that came back to small/​tight it’s enough for me to continue to look for my tailor.

After reading so many amazing reviews from my fellow Unilocalers, I decided to stop by Mr. B store with a button dilemma. Not too fast. Let me explain. I wanted to replace the main button of one of my pants. Apparently a simple task, if you ask me. Not for Mr. B. He said that it will take him a week for completion and he needed to charge me $ 20 (in advance). Really, honey? For a button? When I complained for the price, he had the audacity to tell me that my pants were expensive. Really, honey? I think that this Mr. B. is taking the American Dream to the extreme, because if he would had charge $ 20 for changing a button in his native Haiti, I’m sure by now his Vudu Doll will be full of needles. No pun intended.

Mr. B is an awesome person. Not only is he an expert at what he does — tailoring — but extremely polite, kind, friendly, insert positive quality here.
I will agree with others that it may take longer than expected for your clothing/​apparel to be ready, but to me, that is normal with Island/​Caribbean people. It comes with the territory. I definitely suggest calling him frequently and be on top of your stuff to make sure you get it on time.
I would not recommend going for last minute alterations/​work as he is always busy. You may be in luck and get it done quickly, but be advised.
While not cheap, the workmanship is excellent. I take suits, jackets, and a slack all the time, he fits them to my needs, and I never have had a complaint.
Best of luck in your endeavors!

My experiences have unfortunately been the same as reviewer, Zan Z. Mr. Bell is very nice, but very unorganized. High prices, yes. I’ve been here 3 times. My alterations came out very nice. I had to wait months rather than the 2 weeks promised, and the prices for altering a Suit are much too expensive $$$. You will never receive a call saying your items are ready, and you will only receive your items after you make several calls over a period of time.

Let me first say that this rating is tentative. Allow me to explain.
After scouring all of Unilocal and search engines for a skilled tailor, you can imagine why I had significantly high expectations for the level of service, craftsmanship and service from Mr. B after reading all of the amazing Unilocal reviews.
After spending an afternoon of thrifting, I brought my haul of ill fitting designer shirts and pants to Mr. B for a transformational sartorial journey. I can attest to other reviewers mentioning Mr. B’s melancholy nature and his patience to fit me for 6 shirts and 3 pairs of slacks.
At the end of the fitting session, I left a deposit ($$$) for my items, and he assured me that they would be ready for pickup in 2 weeks (Jan 21). Can you infer where this story is going?
I show up at the shop 4 weeks after the fitting and not only were my clothes not even tailored, but it took him literally 20 minutes to locate my garments in his small shop. He then mentioned that he had a lot of customers and was gaging me to see if I needed my clothes urgently.
I am quite disappointed at his total disregard for my time, lack of care for the situation and I don’t intend on paying the full balance when I return.
I will keep you all posted on the outcome.

I turned to Mr B some months ago with my uniform sweater and asked him to sow on some buttons to hold the shoulder markings in place. I loved the work he did and i would recommend him to anyone who asks!

My first time with a tailor so maybe my perception of what I was getting into was off… but I can’t say im impressed.
I lost a lot of weight and needed lots of clothes taken in… took the clothes in (about 15 pieces) and was told it will take some time, but I wouldn’t be disappointed… more than 4 months later I still don’t have all of my clothes back!
Every week he tells me to come by and he will have my things ready (only like 3 pieces are still there), but overall I’ve taken about 10 trips there and only half of the time do I leave with any pieces. I’ve given him 3 weeks between visits only to come and hear the same «i’ve been really busy, but I have two more shirts for you» Not to mention that about ²⁄₃ of the clothes i’ve picked up fit great, but there are about 3 pairs of pants that were taken too far in or cut very weirdly and now wear funny.
Now I will say, he might be the NICEST PERSON i’ve met in Miami, and I really enjoy chatting with him… but once I FINALLY get the last 3 items back I can guarantee that I will just be buying new clothes or going elsewhere from now on (i’ll probably go back just to chat with him)…too much money (he is costly!) and time wasted

I’ve been going to Mr. B for some time now. He is such a kind gentleman and a true professional. His prices are fair, not the cheapest but definitely fair for the turnaround and quality. I would highly recommend him to anyone. The location is small and the hours vary so it’s always good to give him a call firsthand and yes, like ANY neighborhood in Miami — don’t leave your laptop in plain view in your car.

Why is it SO hard to find a tailor in South Florida? I guess it goes hand-​in-​hand with the shortage of dry cleaners.
Thank god for Mr. B! He is so good and reliable that I drive all the way from Broward for his services. I am a short short little dude and literally require every pair of pants I’ve ever owned to be tailored. I’ve been through so many horror stories since I moved here four years ago. Trust me when I say I’ve been to the rest and Mr. B is def the best.
It is very easy to miss — the shop is only about 15 feet wide. I do suggest calling ahead — I drove down during lunch and found the shop closed for the better part of the afternoon once.

I’ll agree with most of the posts and say that Mr. B was very nice and did a great job with my jeans, but I will never return to this shop again due to its location. I was in the shop no more than 15 minutes, while it was raining, to walk out to a smashed out window and stolen computer. I didn’t realize the area I was in and without thinking left my laptop in the car. Besides the area I was in, the shop itself was little more than a closet and I killed 2 spiders while in the coffin like dress closet. If you have anything better than a Honda, do not drive it to this shop.

Once in a rare while you have a service experience that makes you want to send business the guy’s way…
I found this tailor on Unilocal (he has stellar reviews), and went last week to get some pants hemmed. He did a great job, not just at hemming, but at fitting them properly. I just took him a big batch of slack, dress shirts, and jeans. Think of all the stuff you have that doesn’t fit quite right or needs a patch.
Mr. B is an old school Haitian dude who will laugh at your ill-​fitting clothes. Highly recommended. I just emailed 10 co-​workers to spread the word.

Simply the Best… and a nice guy too… taken 100’s of items for alterations and even had custom shirts made, always done right and priced fair… Amazing work and service!

I’m not your average girl. My jeans are always a little too long and should be hemmed and I usually need my dresses to be adjusted. So after reading all these great reviews for Mr. B I showed up to check it all out and I have to say that Mr. B is truly one of the nicest people I’ve met in a long time.
I drove straight by this place and had to loop around, parked on the side at the meters and strolled inside. Note to others this shop is located on the West side of Biscayne.
Just another reason to love MiMo. (Miami Modern neighborhood/​district)

Took a pair of jeans to Mr. B. based on reviews on Unilocal,and am glad I did. He is super sweet, did an amazing job, and I think $ 15 is a great price to pay for jeans that I can actually wear now without rolling them up a thousand times.
I just wish he were closer to my house, but I’ll happily drive 30 for the next pair of jeans that I need hemmed.

I forgot to review this place! He is one of my favorite tailors. He has fixed a couple of pants and a skirt for me. Like everyone said before, he is soooo nice and sweet. Very affordable. He has done a fantastic job with everything I have taken in. I’m short so I have to pretty much fix all the pants I buy.
He even managed to salvage the pants from my favorite suit when I tore the entire lining into shreds, the hem fell and buttons were missing. I know. I got mileage out of this suit :) After one week and $ 50 I have my like-​new pants back.
