Harry’s Tailor Shop

Harry was friendly and did an excellent job on my items. I relocated to Dallas a few months ago from NYC and was sad to leave behind my amazing tailor. I will say that Harry exceeded my expectations and is now my go-​to for any/​all alterations. Would highly recommend!

Called to have measurements taken was told that they do not provide this service. Seemed odd, offered to pay cash to just get quick fitting done, was told they have a policy against taking measurements…

Took my dress in for an alteration on the sleeves: It took about 6 days due to them being so busy with alterations but they did an amazing job! Thank you for your help!

Disappointing customer service, mediocre quality. Recently went to Harry’s at recommendation of high end men’s clothing store to shorten sleeves of leather jacket purchased out of state. Their leather tailor has been ill and thus rec Harry’s as an alternative. Even called to assess duration of work. When I got to Harry’s, I was greeted by the grumpy namesake who measured me and told me he could do the work. He proceeded to tack three days onto the duration of work that had been quoted to me earlier. I dared not question him, as I was no longer in a rush, I wanted the job done well, and I feared by his personality he would yell at me. He very rudely stated the cost, as if he thought or hoped it would deter me. I said ok. He told me the date of completion again. No where in the store does it state cash only and no where did he state such, btw.
I contacted the store the day before due date to assess completion. Most alterations are completed the day prior. I was curtly told it would be ready the day the ticket was stated and it would be LATE in the day. Click, the phone hung up.
I arrived before closing, the jacket not entirely complete. It was still in process of being steamed. I tried it on, the work was acceptable. I was handed the coat on a shirt hanger, not the jacket hanger I brought it in on. I went to pay. I suspected cash, but asked about credit and was rudely told no credit. Because I had assumed so by the owner being such an asshat, I brought the money. Not that it is a tremendous deal, but the cost jumped up 6.5 $. I wouldn’t have batted an eye, but the guy was such a dick about things that I was a little disappointed.
The work is acceptable and the coat was not easy to work on. I think the shop is ok, but understand you will not get great customer service. I like to support the small business owners. I do not mind paying a premium. I certainly have no problem paying for quality. I do expect some courtesy and graciousness. I will not be coming back.

You see, I’m short. I’m really short. I don’t even break 5ft. Sometimes clothes can look pretty awkward on me, especially pants. Every Christmas, I would ask Santa for a body like Gisele Bundchen so that clothes would fit me much better. Needless to say, he never came through. This is where Harry became my fairy godfather (like in Cinderella). I brought in 2 dresses and 3 pairs of pants. The dresses needed to be taken in and the pants needed to be hemmed. The turn around time was quick and my clothes fit me perfectly. It was expensive but completely worth it!
I will say that when you go see Harry, you will never feel rushed during your fitting. He takes his time and makes sure that everything is perfect. If you are unsure what to do or what you want, ask him for advice and he will tell you what’s best. You will not be disappointed. He is a fantastic tailor.
Don’t forget to bring cash or check. No credit cards.
There’s parking in the front.

Harry is the worlds greatest tailor. He is intuitive and reasonable. You can’t go wrong. I’m in the clothing business and have worked with a lot of tailors. Harry is the best. He goes above and beyond in the customer service department and is always fair.

Outstanding! He’s very helpful. Great advice, tailoring and customer service. He made corrections on the spot as well. Highly recommend. He was referred to me by Neiman Marcus.

You will find excellent and friendly service here.

Harry and his associates do an amazing job! From the moment I walk in i‘m greeted by Harry with a handshake and immediately get good service. All the suits, pants and shirts i take to him he’s fast and efficient. Highly recommend for any job big or small. Just bring cash because he doesn’t take credit cards.

I went to Harry’s because of all of the incredible reviews. You can imagine my disappointment then when I was charged $ 150 to hem a pair of $ 40 Levis jeans and hem a trench coat which didn’t even have lining in it! To make matters worse, after letting them have a second go at my jeans because they weren’t right, they still didn’t fit me the way I wanted them to! The shop was also in disarray and the person I worked with was rather curt. I’ve been having my clothes tailored since I was 13 — it does not cost $ 150 to take up the hem. This is highway robbery.
I gave up after their second try with my jeans and took them to my usual tailor out in McKinney. Everyone go to Stonebridge Tailor. Price for doing my jeans right the first time? $ 30.

Unilocal and D MAGAZINE let me down. TERRIBLE JOB AND TERRIBLE CUSTOMER SERVICE. Do yourself a favor and go somewhere else! I dropped off a bridesmaid dress for some simple alterations. After 2 weeks of waiting, I go and try on my dress. The dress is still way too big… and now the hem and darts on the bust are both uneven. Harry and staff not only don’t apologize… but suggest that maybe I brought in the dress with an uneven hem. I had to pay full price for the dress before leaving completely unsatisfied. I think just about anywhere else could have done a better job.

Dropped off a dress for a simple alteration (the top was a bit gapey– it was supposed to have a ‘keyhole’ opening, but it was more of a window) and was told it would be no problem. Turn around wasn’t amazingly fast, but I also didn’t need to have the dress back instantly. It was priced about what I thought it would be for that alteration. Harry did tell me when I dropped the dress off that they only take cash or check.
I do have several other garments to bring to Harry, so I know I’ll be back!

Any type of alteration, hemming jeans, sleeve length for jackets, to formal gowns needing all over work, you are at the right place. Professional, and usually within a week your clothing will be ready. I CAN sew, I have my own machine, but for jeans (too bulky for my old machine), delicate fabrics and difficult alterations I trust Harry’s Taylor Shop… and as others have said, it’s either cash or check. Having your clothes fit well is the difference between your outfit looking good and looking fantastic!!! Worth every penny spent.

They did a good job tailoring my suits. There was a short delay (10 minutes) when I came to pick them up, but this was a pretty busy season for them, too. They also say that they can clean the clothing, too, but they don’t — at least, not any more. HOWEVER, bear in mind that they are not inexpensive. To do some minor alterations on two suits, it came to about $ 90 each. That surprised me, so be prepared. Finally, they don’t take credit/​debit cards. Only cash or checks.

I brought in a suit to get tailored. I had the jacket sleeves hemmed and sides tightened, and pants hemmed and waist tightened. Took about a week and cost $ 175.
If you buy alot of high end designer clothes and are looking to get your ego stroked by an overconfident, yet highly skilled Italian seamster (male version of seamstress), then Harry is your guy. Just be sure to bring in multiple items or else he might think you are poor and unworthy of his ego stroking services.
If you are a young professional and just out of college, then look elsewhere (try Unique Tailor off of Greenville or Sun Tailor off of Plano Parkway) for a better deal of equal or better quality.

Very impressed. I brought in a suit jacket that I never thought would fit the way I wanted it to. Harry worked a miracle though and precisely tailored it to the fit and style that I was looking for. I’ve been to several tailors in the area and the quality of Harry’s work is unmatched. It’s a bit more expensive than some others, but worth every penny. Personally, Harry was great to work with as well. He took the time to understand exactly what look I wanted the finished product to have and was very attentive. I will be bringing all of my tailoring needs to Harry’s from now on, five stars all the way!

I purchased a new suit and knew I would need to have at least the pants and sleeves shortened. I read reviews for tailors all across Dallas and landed on Harry’s since it is very close to my office and the reviews were excellent.
I can echo that Harry’s is not cheap but the work is phenomenal. I was greeted by Harry when I walked in and gone in ten minutes after he chalked up the suit and ensured that I felt comfortable with the fit he had pinned. A week later, I walked in and the suit fit like a glove and no further alterations were needed.
Harry’s is indeed cash or check only but he gives you the price ahead of time so you really have no excuses to not have the proper payment on pickup. I will likely take my «everyday» clothes somewhere cheaper but for any jackets, suits, etc. I will continue to trust Harry and his crew.

Decent work. I wasn’t amazed but it wasn’t horrible. I had my wedding dress hemmed, the straps altered, a bustle added, and a hook added to the zipper. FIVE HUNDRED DOLLARS! He said he couldn’t itemize it for me to see just how he came to that number. Of course I had to pay it, but I left feeling like I got ripped off.
Also, don’t bring your credit card — this place only accepts cash/​check.

Excellent job done on two pairs of jeans I brought in to be hemmed for my wife. Can’t even tell they have been altered. Absolutely excellent work. That said, the reason for 2 stars is the fact that Harry’s only takes CASH and CHECKS ONLY, and does not accept credit or debit cards. In 2013, it should be a given to accept cards… not knowing this, I had to leave the store, go to an ATM (a Chase is close by) and come back to pay for my garments. Maybe it’s petty, but the inconvenience is too much for me to come back.
Again, they do EXCELLENT WORK… there’s a reason they’ve gotten D’s Best for several years. If you don’t mind carrying cash when you pick up your garments, then you probably can’t beat Harry’s.

The saying is «You get what you pay for.» Having been to several of the «top» tailors in Dallas, I have found this statement to be 100% true. Although just about about any tailor can hem a pair of slacks as it’s a simple job, altering the body of a suit jacket for a tailored look takes a deft hand. Harry’s is definitely the most expensive tailor I’ve ever used but undoubtedly the best. All the other tailors I’ve used for suit jackets have resulted in multiple visits to correct botched jobs and still don’t look as good as I’d hoped.
I brought in my new tuxedo jacket to get the sides and back taken in and Harry pinned it up just right. Five days and $ 65 later, my jacket looked amazing. It fit perfect and they even pressed out all the wrinkles I dropped it off with so I was ready for my black tie event the next day. This is my new go to spot for tailoring!
Tips: CASH ONLY!
