Sal’s Custom Tailors & Cleaners

I wasn’t even going to say anything about my bad experience with Sal’s because I figure every business has an off day once in a while, so I try to give them the benefit of the doubt. That is, until I just picked up my dress and was told, and this is a direct quote, «Don’t come back again. We’ve already done too much work on this dress.» Really? Wow. I only brought it back one time because after the first alteration, it was worse than before I brought it in. The waist was up around my chest and he made the arm holes so small I couldn’t move my shoulders AT ALL. At that point, Sal told me he can’t keep working on this dress and that the dress is crap! A woman seamstress was there and came over to look and said she could let it back out at the shoulders and would put a strap across the back to keep it from sliding off my shoulders. So today I go back in to pick it up and the fit is a little better. At least the empire waist isn’t across my chest. But the strap was not sewn on the back. He said he could do it now, so I came back in 20 minutes to pick it up and that is when he told me to not come back again. I have been nothing but nice to him during all of his insults and negativity, so I cannot understand why he would treat me this way. But suffice it to say, don’t worry, Sal, I certainly will NOT come back again.

I LOVE Sals!
I brought a dress in last summer that needed to be taken out about 3 inches in the back. Which actually means 1 ½ inches on either side. The extra material had to come from the bottom of the dress which she then had to hem.
Theresa looked at it on me and without measuring, told me to take it off. I was a bit skeptical. How could she know how much to add without measuring?! I assumed she’d make it too big and then have to take it back in. I was so wrong!
I went back a few days later and it fit like it was made for me. There were no other adjustments needed. And the price for this dress that is now perfectly tailored to me? $ 20
I went back last week to have my wedding dress altered and she remembered me. I haven’t been there in a year!
I’ll have my fiancé check out their tux rentals and after the wedding I’ll have my dress cleaned preserved there.
I wouldn’t take my business anywhere else!
