Parisi Tailor Shop

I echo JB.‘s assessment of the personalities that own and run the shop. Dominic is great though, so try and interact with.
Pro: The tailor work is fantastic. I’ve taken everything here (slacks, blazers, sport coats, dress shirts) and my wife has also (skirts, slacks, work shirts, dresses) and everything always comes back the way we wanted. One time, my pants were too tight due to a measurement error and Dominic gladly took them back and fixed them, no fuss.
The prices are reasonable for most things (I would suggest doing simple tailor fixes like hemming at home or take them to a dry cleaner) — $ 30 for full dress shirt slimming (sleeves and torso) and ~$ 35 for letting the waist out of pants.
They even do leather! I had leather elbow patches sewn on my tweed blazer and… it looks awesome.
Cons: It takes a while for you to get your clothes back. I don’t mind this, but I imagine a lot of people do. It takes 2 weeks minimum to get your clothes back, longer if you take it when they’re busy. In my experience, every good/​great tailor has a similar wait and this should just be built into your expectations. I’ve had things done sooner, but… they didn’t turn out so well.
You can only use your credit card once here. So, you either pay it in full when you drop your clothes off with your credit card, or you pay 50% (which might be mandatory as a down payment) with your card and pay the remaining balance in cash when you pick your clothes up.
The cost of the work isn’t itemized on your receipt. It’s usually written on scratch paper, totaled, then added to your receipt. Yes, this is a mom and pop shop, but I don’t like this… ever. So, I always request to have my expenses itemized. You should too.
The work here is great, so you should go… if you’re not in a hurry. I gave them 4 stars instead of 5 because, while I’m fine waiting 2 weeks, I don’t like waiting longer and I usually don’t have cash or checks on me (who carries checks in 2015?!), so it’s an added inconvenience.

Well, here’s the thing.
First of all, they’re a bit rude in here. The guy is fine, the woman can be abrasive and confrontational. I watched her yell at a customer and she was rude to others as well.
I was told my suit would be ready in a week. It wasn’t done in 2 and when I called they told me they’d been «busy». I finally came in after 3 ½ weeks and told them I’d just need my jacket back and suddenly it was done the very next day. So, this was a problem.
But, they did a magical job on the jacket. There had been some damage and you cannot even tell it was there. Perfect. And for $ 40. I was impressed.
I won’t go back because I can’t wait nearly a month for my suit to come back when it’s been promised a week. But if you don’t mind waiting, they do a great job.
