"I don't understand how this guy has such a high rating. I dropped off a wool coat here about 2 years ago, came by the following week and it wasn't ready. I came back again another week or two later and it didn't fit my hips properly so we had to make adjustments again. I specifically remember having to come by this place *four* times in total until I got what I wanted. I paid $100 and the craftsmanship was mid at best, and lazy in some places at worst. I am sure they are going to respond to this comment arguing that it's not true, but just look at this picture of the sleeve- it speaks for itself."

"I had pleated dress trousers altered here for leg tapering/hem. Unfortunately, the alterations were done incorrectly, which created permanent bunching and destroyed the drape of the garment. When I raised concerns about the distortion, I was told this was "because they're pleated," which isn't accurate for properly altered pleated trousers. A second tailor confirmed the pants cannot be fixed as no fabric was left in the seams. When I requested a refund for the unsuccessful alteration, the situation became unnecessarily complicated (was told "we knew you'd be trouble" because I tried to use a visa gift card I won at a work conference lol). This may be a suitable option for simple, non-invasive alterations like basic hems or letting out seams where there's existing fabric. They are flexible and genuinely wanting to leave you happy. However, I cannot recommend this business for any work requiring understanding of garment design, structure, or style preservation, In my case for pleated trousers, tailored menswear, or anything beyond basic adjustments. If you have high-quality or designer garments that require structural alterations, or if you're looking to put trust in the tailor I'd strongly suggest finding someone who specializes in that specific type of clothing."

"Teodoor Tailor was an amazing experience for me. I had a dress slip that I needed hemmed for an event last minute and he got it done perfectly within hours. He was kind and helpful and gave good advice as to the length. Would go back!"

"I can't recommend Teodoor highly enough - he's a true master of his craft, and someone you can fully trust with your most important garments. We brought in my daughter's First Communion dress, which was far too big-both in length and fit. From across the room, without even touching the dress, Teodoor assessed exactly what needed to be done. I was amazed. He simply looked at me, smiled, and confidently told me the alterations he planned to make. I was skeptical at first-how could he know without measuring? So he pulled out his ruler, called out the measurements, and showed me how perfectly they matched the adjustments he described. He was spot-on, even with the delicate lace at the bottom of the dress. A few days later, my daughter tried on the dress again-and her face lit up with joy. It fit beautifully. You can tell Teodoor takes deep pride in his work, and that the happiness of his customers fuels his passion. My family has been going to Teodoor for years, and he has never once disappointed. If you're looking for a skilled, trustworthy tailor who truly cares about his work-and his clients - Teodoor is the one."

"Wedding dress alterations: I used Teodor Tailor to alter my wedding dress. He was quick to respond and set up an appointment. I needed the dress brought in, hemmed, and bustled which he did all three of. I had to go back in a couple times for additional alterations, but he did them at no extra charge. The dress ended up fitting extremely well."
