Cruz Custom Tailors

I took my suit in. He treated me with respect and royalty. I will always come here and no where else. He altered my suit and dress shirt so I could wear cufflinks with it. When I came back in to pick up my suit, he noticed some wear and tear on the pants I was wearing. So while I was trying on my suit he hemmed the bottoms of my last legs, fixed the zipper on them, and even dry cleaned them for me. He is a class «A» guy and gained a lot of respect from me. I’ve been spreading Cruz Alterations all over the place. He deserves the business. Very professional and affordable.

One of the best tailors… Brought in a couple adults shirts to be tailored to fit a 5 year old, came out great even the owner of the clothing brand was shocked how great the work is.

This is a very small mom and pop shop, but they definitely care about you. My boyfriend needed his pants tapered, so he called in and they gave him an estimate for one pair of pants, which averages $ 25. When we came, the tailor pinned the sides of his pants and asked for approval. We both liked it, so he said it would take about a week to finish. We came in on a Wednesday, but that next Monday he called and told us they were already finished! They were tapered perfectly, and he loved the fit. Would definitely come back for anymore tapering or hemming.

Great Tailor. Perfect alterations on pants that I did not want to part with so took a chance on taking them in and letting hems out. Will be back again!

Mr. Cruise has consistently been excellent when it comes to customer service. The quality of his work is impeccable! it’s definitely a jewel in Riverside. If you’re looking to get anything as it relates to tailoring… this is your guy.

Mr. Cruz is very respectful and humble. He is a professional who I would trust tailoring my entire closet if I could. His prices are reasonable and his work is more than satisfactory. Compared to my experience with Men’s Wearhouse, Mr. Cruz surpasses them without a doubt. I definitely recommend this place!

This is where I go to get all my clothes tailored now.
If your new to this place bring a test garment. I know it sounds funny but buy a cheap shirt or pant or jacket from walmart and have them show you what they can do to the garments to make them look better.
I say this because if you bring in the actual garment you want and they adjust it a little too tight theres usually no going back as they can’t add fabric. So bring a test garment. If you like what they do they bring your actual garment you want tailored.
Pros:
friendly store.
wide selection of mens clothing and accessories
made to measure available
once they get your measurements how you like they remember and adjust all acordinly
cons
sometimes there a bit of a wait, not instant turn around
parking can be a hassel as you have to pay for side parking mon– fri if there is any
only one fitting room (besides the bathroom in the back) so if its busy you have to wait.
so far I’ve had about 6 pairs of pants tailored here. So far so good.
Everyone enjoys coming here. The day I came in o saw like 4 other people all were having a good time shootin the shit with each other like they were friends.
Very friendly environment. You have to try this place out

Sometimes they close a little early, but I will tell you it’s worth the wait. They do such a fantastic job here and at an affordable price. I am short and so is my husband, so no matter where we shop or what we buy, we always need our pants hemmed. The thing is, I know how to sew. But when I hem pants, it looks like a homemade job, and I hate that. When you come to Cruz, it looks like you bought them at the length you have them hemmed at, because you can’t tell. It doesn’t look like your mom did it, and I like that.

Very professional did a great hem for me on my pants in a rush the day before a wedding. $ 15 total.

Hands down the best service, best price! Work is amazing and the skill of tailor is exceptional for a great price! As a student I was able to afford a tailor suit. Get to know Cruz he is a great guy and has a great story and family history in tailoring suits.
I would recommend him to anyone and he is the best in the IE from what I researched.

He was amazing!!! My wedding dress was really big and after he tailored the dress it was perfect

The first time I came here, I just wanted to get a casual shirt shortened since it was a little bit longer than I would’ve liked. I asked first if they were willing to even shorten a casual shirt and the manager said absolutely. So they told me to put it on and gave me many suggestions as to HOW short they thought would be good for me. I was extremely surprised by the friendly atmosphere. They were super quick about it. Now, my second time here I brought in 3 brand new shirts that I had bought. He took them and measured it really fast and was able to put the pins where they were to be shortened. Fastest service I have ever received and also extremely friendly. Now I can buy any clothing even if it runs long because I can just take it here to be tailored.

I’ve had about 10 dress shirts and oxfords tailored, and 4 raw denim jeans (one being 22oz!) hemmed here. The fit and length on the finished product they produced was VERY good.
You can’t even tell it was altered, that’s how flawless this tailor is! The owner was very friendly and accommodating to my schedule and gave me a call to let me know all my shirts were available to pick up 3 days earlier than scheduled. One of the best hard to find tailors in the IE, and this is the only place I will go from now on.

He turned around a gown in a matter of days, bustled my wedding dress, pricey but worth it!
Advice: don’t rent tuxes or suits, not his forte

Undoubtedly the best tailor for the money in Riverside. Miguel Cruz and his staff have always provided me with tremendous tailoring services, but the only issue I take is with the scheduling.
I’ve had two suits and multiple shirts tailored by Cruz Tailors and the shirts are always done perfectly with the pants being tapered to my exact specifications. No complaints with the quality of work.
However, I’ve encountered several instances where I was told that my clothing would be completed by X date, so I’d swing by on my lunch break to pick them up and they weren’t done yet. No discount offered, a really weak apology. Come on, guys! You just can’t do this to a customer who trusts that his tailoring will be completed on time. At least offer a discount or a free service in the future. It’s not that hard to make us happy!
Pricing is a little steep, but the quality of work is on point. I’ve had multiple tailors in this city screw up things as simple as tapering or shirt slimming. Miguel makes sure that your clothing is done to exact specifications that you requested. If you don’t know what you want, Miguel can recommend something for a modern look, which is super helpful for newbies who aren’t familiar with what looks good in 2014.
Give them your business. It’s a small, but cool little shop in Downtown Riverside. Just make sure you call before heading down to pick up your clothing.

Prices are fair and Miguel and his crew do an amazing job. I’ve had some suits, pants, jeans, and shirts done here and the results are always perfect. I wouldn’t get my clothes fitted anywhere else. Thanks, Miguel!

Best tailor in town! Custom work is first rate and customer service is excellent. I will definitely be bringing all of my tailoring to Miguel’s skilled hands from now on.

I am honestly a little surprised at the generous reviews below because I had a very different experience. The service is first-​rate, the owner is very nice and welcoming. However, the positive rating ends there. I brought in two suits to be tailored and after measuring me he quoted me a price a little higher than average which I figured would be fine seeing all his high ratings on here! I came a week later and they were «still working on my items» it took them 10 minutes to find them and told me to come back next week. When I returned a week later one of the suits was virtually untouched as in I was paying for nothing. I asked if he could redo the work (I wanted the pants tapered because they were like bellbottoms and they were exactly the same as when I brought them in). I came in 2 weeks later because I figured they for sure would be ready with my suit. I am currently sitting in the lobby waiting for my pants to be finished because apparently after 24 days total they still haven’t had time to fix them. I can hear them tailoring as we speak. All in all this place does not follow through on their word. They are over priced and ultimately cannot be trusted. As nice as the people that run the place are, they are not organized and lack follow through and I will not ever be returning.

Customer service: I came in with a theory suit in hand to get custom fitted. Mr. Cruz was with a customer in the main lobby. I stood there for a few minutes but he did not even greet me or say he’ll be right with me. Later when I left he did not say anything.
Place: very small. There is only one dressing room and one mirror so only one person can be helped at a time. It also seems like they sell suits more than they alter suits. I would not say this place is «GQ» at all.
The suit I brought in I wanted to have the waist and crotch taken in for a more slim fit. Mr. cruz told me the pants were too big to take in. I agree that they were too big but another tailor I went to was able to do the job with the same size and brand pants. It seemed like he was not confident in the degree of work it would take. It also seemed he cared more about selling his suits than altering an 800 dollar suit.
I’m sure this place is great for basic alterations or buying your first suit but if you wear fitted and styled suits I would not recommend this place.

Been coming here since 2011 to have jerseys tailored for the spirit squad I run.
Always an absolute pleasure!
Prices are good and the work is flawless.
Miguel is such a nice, professional gentleman! I’m very, very pleased.
