Wendy’s Custom Tailoring

Wendy is very nice and friendly. I walked in one day afternoon and wanted to trim my pants for my interview on the following day. She said it would usually take a couple of days because she has plenty of work on hand but she stayed late and did it on that day for me once she knew I had a Lin interview and wish me luck. I will go back for any tailoring issues I will have in the future. Thanks Wendy.

Wendy is Great! She made me 2 sets of suits, a vest and a shirt for my best friend wedding. She did a great job despite the fact that I used a really difficult material. You will not be disappointed with her work. She is a very sweet and nice lady too! I recommend this place, the downside is that it is quite pricey

Wendy is awesome. she is super sweet and professional. She has done alterations on several cocktail dresses for me, all to perfection. Thanks, Wendy!

My beloved leather jacket was splitting at the seams. I brought it in to Wendy and she fixed it up good as new. She charged about $ 30 for dry cleaning and fixing the seams. I know it was a more complicated tailoring job with having to open the lining in some spots, so I think this was a reasonable price. I wouldn’t hesitate to bring other items needing tailoring to her.
I wasn’t blown away with the dry cleaning, but to be fair, I’ve worn this jacket for years. Wendy even pointed at the armpit sections when I picked it up and made an «ewww/​lost cause» face, so maybe my jacket was beyond any help of dry cleaning.
This is a cash only place, and she asked for a cash deposit when I dropped off my jacket. I thought that was a bit strange, as I would think leaving a leather jacket would be proof enough to know I’d return, but I imagine she has valid reasons for requesting partial payment up front.
There are not enough stars to properly rate Wendy’s sweetness.

In anticipation of having to get a bridesmaid dress altered, I brought a few simple items in for hemming. Wendy is so sweet and really knows what she is doing and strives not to just get it done but to get it done well. She hemmed three dresses for me, one of which she used a different sort of hem because she said it would make the dress look of higher quality. oh? Well she passed the simple hemming test.
For her next test, I brought in a leather dress. I bought it online thinking of my normal dress size per the store’s measurements guide. Well, leather stretches as you wear it so you need to go a size down when you purchase any leather item. So the dress was a bit boxy around the waist. Wendy was undaunted and nipped it here and tucked it there and voila! my waist was back!
Though english is not her first language, she really tries to gauge your item and your needs. Be upfront with her and she’ll do a wonderful job.

Wendy is great. Better than Mrs. Ma. She can be trusted with a men’s jacket, and in fact has previously made custom suits. Her prices are fair and she is very friendly. I will update upon receipt of the altered garments.

Auntie Wendy is super nice and does a great job. Her prices are very reasonable for quick same day alterations.

5 stars for being such a sweet lady. 5 stars for being open until 7pm even on a Friday night. 5 stars for accepting a dress at 6:30pm and having it hemmed and tightened by 11am the next morning because I said it was urgent. And 5 stars for still only charging me $ 22 despite my desperation.
I’m no expert on craftmanship but the dress looked great throughout my photoshoot today! I have several more dresses that need to be taken in on the sides and she quoted an average of $ 17. Less than $ 20 to create a perfectly fitted dress? Yes please! And while she’ll happily accomodate when necessary, it’s generally a one week turn around.
I just took a star off two stars because the stitching on my last dress is pretty crooked. Noticeable even just hanging on the rack so I’m not sure how she didn’t see it. If she fixes it for me, I’ll give a star back =T

First of all, you can’t beat the convenience. I live next door.
Wendy is great at tailoring jeans and dresses. Her price is more than reasonable and she does a fantastic job. Unlike some places in Chinatown that also charge very little to alter garments, Wendy doesn’t turn down the pieces that are more complicated (the well-​know Rainbow on Kearney from time to time refuses anything that is too much «trouble»). She also takes in dry cleaning at great prices.
And she is always smiling! Great little place where I can trust my beloved clothes with.

I have been taking my jeans to Wendy for a few years now, and I won’t trust them to anyone else. She always perfectly attaches the original bottoms so no one can tell they’ve been hemmed. Her English isn’t great but communication is not a problem as she’s a very sweet lady and an excellent tailor. Bonus — her new shop is just a few blocks from my office.
