Anna's Custom Tailoring

10/29/09

Best decision ever!

by txmegs at Citysearch

Trying a new tailor is as scary as trying a new salon, but Anna was fantastic and very fast. Yes, her prices are higher than others, but if you've ever had a botched hem on expensive jeans you know that it's worth it to go with the best. She was really friendly, and I would definitely recommend her to anyone needing tailor services.

• Pros: Convenient for those who live on the westside
• Cons: A little pricey for hemming

The Best Alterations With A Smile!!!

by annaisthebest at Citysearch

I had to respond because of comments made by others. I am NOT a white woman and I can promise you that I would not take my cloths to anyone else but Anna! I have gone to other tailors who offered a lower price by two or three dollars and I was so disappointed. My cloths are of very good quality and I would like to keep them that way. After trying to save a few cents, I will never trust anyone but Anna to make alterations! I have even asked Anna for a discount because of the terrible ecomonic times, and she was HAPPY to give it to me. I have seen how Anna interacts with her client's and I have never noticed her to be rude regardless of the persons race. Anna treats everyone the same because she loves the Lord! Anna does the best work in LA and I will always take all my alterations to her. If you want quality work delivered with a smile, Anna is you ONLY choice!

• Pros: Quality of work is fantastic!
• Cons: I really cannot think of any!

Good tailor, rude woman

by lanainla at Citysearch

I used Citysearch when I was looking for a tailor so I thought it only fair for me to leave a review as well.

I've been to Anna 3 times. Each time she has done a fine job. Each time she has also been rude and indifferent to me. After she hemmed a pair of pants for me, I tried them on and wasn't sure about the length. "Well, I'm not going to do it again," she said, annoyed. Obviously I would have paid if I wanted her to re-hem them, but she immediately responded to me as if that wouldn't have been the case. And it was a little embarrassing since she said this in front of another customer.

I never mind paying what she requests, because I think good handiwork is worth it, but I do mind giving money to someone who acts like I am a nobody. After giving her 3 chances to be the sweet woman everyone on Citysearch raves about, I realized it wasn't going to happen. So I'm looking elsewhere. I have a feeling most of her customers are white and so are her reviewers. She seemed to react more warmly to the white customers that came into her shop. Perhaps she is more comfortable with them. I, however, am not comfortable with her service.

• Pros: Good handiwork
• Cons: Rude, indifferent service
