I am very pleased with the tailoring adjustments on my German "Janker" jacket. The sides were brought in, the decorative belt on the back shortened and the sleeves shortened as well. Quite intricate work needed (especially on the sleeves) and was all very well done, much to my satisfaction. "click on photo to see all three views"
I appreciated the friendly service and them being very upfront with what would be a good compromise to avoid unnecessary exorbitant costs.
I have since brought in two casual blazers, one for a quick repair and the other for sleeve shortening. Pleased with that work as well.
I will recommend as well as return for more tailoring when needed. -

When my wedding dresses arrived from JJ's House (yes, I ordered two!), they had to be altered a bit. The dresses weren't a disaster (as feared), but they needed a little tweaking (as expected). Oakridge Tailors came highly recommended, and so I entrusted them with my dresses for my important day. Due to circumstances, I did not have my dresses until a month before my wedding but Joy and William, the owners, said that was plenty of time for them to make the alterations, and I picked the dresses up a couple of weeks later.
When I went to pick up the dresses, the dress I planned on wearing on the "big day" was a go, but the second dress (I couldn't resist ordering it, so I ordered it as a backup dress and a dress to wear the day after, while we're partying it up in Vegas) still needed some minor alterations -- there was a bit of loose material at the waist that was puckering. So Joy said that she would fix it, and I went back a couple of days later. When I went back for the dress, a little more material still had to be removed, and Joy and William told me they could have it done that day, so I went and did my errands and went back about an hour later.
Due to the design of the dresses, my body shape, and the fact that I took a gamble and ordered the dresses online without the ability to try them on, the dresses aren't perfect, but they are close, and Joy and William helped me with that. They did a great job, and I highly recommend them.

This is by far the nicest,friendliest place Ive been to tailor my clothing.The prices were reasonable,the staff were very accommodating and made sure that every customer was fully satisfied with their needs.The shop itself was very spacious,neat and you could tell that they were very organized.I also enjoyed how easily accessible the location was by skytrain or taking the 49.
I came in with a prom dress and they finished early and called me in for a final extra fitting to ensure that I received more than I payed for.Very satisfied.Will come again!! -

This was my first tailor and my experience was great. I had taken in my suit to be altered and the tailor was very informative. He suggested ways to make the fit better but without overselling. Prices are very reasonable. Bottomline, the tailor is very trustworthy and I would recommend this tailor for anyone who needs one.

Honest and excellent at their craft. You let them take measurement, drop the clothing off and pick up satisfied.
These guys are not super cheap if that's what you're looking for. I don't think they are expensive either. They're very good at altering and will make a $200 off the rack suit fit and look like a $2k bespoke suit.
They will give you very specific suggestions and options depends on the occasion that you want to wear the clothing or your style like any good tailors would. If they think an alteration is a bit unnecessary and won't make a big difference, they will recommend against it. Decision is up to you. No sleezy sales tactics here.
