Picadilly Tailor

Wonderful people to deal with. «Mom & Pop» really care about their business and customers. Great quality of work that they stand behind! It is nice to see that from a business these days. Stay local, support local!
If you need alterations done, look no further.
If you have any problem with communication, please ask to speak to their son @Joshua A — it worked for me!

I have had a TON of hems done here, and even had them take in some pants that were too loose after I lost weight. I also had a repair done on the lining of a coat, and you can’t even tell there was ever a rip.
I love the work they do here and will continue to bring my items in.

I’ve had alterations done here a number of times over the past couple years — they do a really nice job. The place is clean, the work is good, the people here are very friendly, and they have fast turnaround.
To be clear, this isn’t the kind of place I would bring an expensive suit that needed a bunch of fashion-​savvy tailoring. This place is really about basic alterations done well.
Prices are good, though not super cheap — a little more than at a dry cleaner that does alterations, but less than a true tailor. For example, as of early 2012, hems are $ 7 (looks to be a temporary special) and waist in/​out is $ 14. Joshua A’s pricing standards seem far out of market.

Be warned that this tailor is WAY overpriced.
The quality of the work actually decent. You probably won’t be disappointed by that. So one might say, well then perhaps the quality of work is justified by the price. In my opinion, price should not be set just by the quality of work but by the entire service they provide, e.g. their location, communication with the customer, their knowledge of fashion and proportion, and the service you receive.
1. The quality was decent.
2. The communication is poor. I didn’t feel like they heard me.
3. For men, they don’t know proper sizing. Sport jacket sleeve length in particular.
4. Way overpriced.
I paid $ 45 for tapering and $ 25 for letting out the sleeves. I used to pay about half as much when I lived in Los Angeles, and I recently found another tailor in West Haven called Carlos Tailor Shop which charges about $ 40 for all of that. Only reason I didn’t take my stuff to him is because he is on vacation. Check out my review on him.
Last word: I wouldn’t come here again unless it was absolutely necessary. You can probably count on the work, but why pay so much for it when you don’t get the full treatment?
