Reino’s Tailor Shop

I was convinced that tailoring a pair of denim overalls was not possible or practical… but Jose did an excellent job and was incredibly nice throughout the process. You CANNOT TELL that they were tailored; the seam looks completely original (which is difficult with denim). He was fast, even when I called and asked if they could be done early AND showed up even earlier than expected. He was also professional and reassuring, offering to make free adjustments if I wasn’t happy. Don’t hesitate. He’s had 20 years of experience working with Nordstrom and his prices are very reasonable.

I am brand-​new to the Chicago Lincoln Park area. I had a job interview to go to in 48 hours, when I realized I had not had my pants hemmed. I called the shop and they were very nice. They told me to come right down, which I did.
They had my pants hemmed and pressed in just over 24 hours. I would highly recommend this shop to anybody and will be going back for all of my tailoring needs.

Yes! Jose is the man. This place is great. He got me in and out so quickl6 and did excellant work. I was impressed and happy to get my suits back the same day i dropped them off. I got a hot date on new years and would be acrewed if it werent for Joses handy work.

I came here because of the reviews and the pricing. Had a bad experience with one of the pieces. It was a Wendy dress (Halloween costume) that was originally a bit too big on me so I brought it here to get it taken in so that I could wear it for Halloween with my kids. Picked it up the Thursday before Halloween and it was way too tight and misshapen. The owner blamed the seamstress that made the alteration and told me to come back Friday and that he’d fix it. I did. The fit during the second fitting was slightly better but still not great, not even good. I accepted the alteration as it was because Halloween was the next day and I really had no other options since I needed the dress for the following morning. I was able to wear the dress on Saturday but it was hugely uncomfortable. It kept riding up and made me feel like I couldn’t breathe. I don’t think I would wear the dress again because it was so misshapen and tight. For the money I paid for it I was hugely disappointed. The owner was nice, although he didn’t really take accountability for the problem.

I brought in a sportcoat that needed the arms lengthened. Reino couldn’t get the arms to be quite long enough, but he did the best job possible given the limitations of the garment. When I reached for my credit card because I only had $ 22 in cash for the bill of $ 30, he said «Just give me the $ 22 and come back the next time you need some work done.» It’s hard to find that kind of old school approach to business.

Reino is a nice guy, works quickly, and the tux that he tailored for me fit better than any suit I ever remember wearing. I don’t dress to impress too often so I may not but the best judge on business like this, but overall I give him pretty high marks.
The only thing I can say is that it was quite a bit more expensive than any of tailor I’ve been to, but I guess you get what you pay for.

Really solid first impression from Reino’s. I had a new suit tailored and was pleased with the results. My job was straight forward but even simple jobs can be a pain with some tailors.
It’s funny to me how really simple things can make a big difference. Reino’s has a basic website that lists services offered, hours of operation and location. That alone separates it from most places. And, amazingly, he actually listened to my requests, a service most tailors adamantly refuse to offer their customers. Plus, the weekend hours are convenient and the location on Clybourn has easy street parking.

Reino is a wizard. I’m very particular about how my pants fit my leg. I strictly buy for the waist now and Reino takes care of the rest. Have yet to return anything to be re-​altered. And just an all around good dude as well. Best tailor in town.

Fast and Professional. Just moved to chicago from miami, FL. Had some dress pants to get brought in before i leave town. Got them back ahead of time. Great pricing. Bringing back more stuffs. And definitely making this place my new spot. Thank you José. Great service.

I haven’t written a review in a long time, but after visiting Jose I felt compelled to. I had an amazing tailor back home and have searched for years to find someone as great and reasonable in Chicago. Reino’s opened near my place and I decided to try it out. I had been going to a place nearby to get dress alterations for black tie events and weddings, but they are really expensive and prod at you like cattle. Not my favorite thing, and I have my husband for that. The dry cleaner tailors had always made me wonder what I was going to end up with and feeling overcharged for their services.
I walked into Reino’s with my usual Chicago acquired scrutiny and disdain. After speaking with Jose for a few minutes it was clear he knew his stuff and had great experience. He had PREVIOUSLY WORKED AT NORDSTROM DOING ALTERATIONS FOR 25 YEARS. Umm, what? How did I get so lucky to find this guy? And, it only got better when he gave me a quote. He is competitively priced, unlike anyone else that I have found at that level.
So far I have had him rework sleeves on a dress to make them thinner, hemmed pants, reworked suit pants that were wide leg into a straight leg, replace buttons on a winter coat and add material into a pair of pants that were too tight in the booty. Quite a range of work so far and I have been beyond thrilled with all of it!
To sum up, his work is great and his prices are very reasonable! Bonus– If I need something back a little sooner, he works with me to deliver earlier.

Jose did a great job with our suits and sport coats! I purchased a sport coat from ebay and two nice suits from Salvation Army and Jose was able to tailor them to my build. When I went to pick up my suits, one pair of pants didn’t quite fit correctly (for my amble behind) and Jose had the corrections done in less than a week.

Excellent experience here!
From the moment I walked into his shop, I was impressed. It was clean and organized, and the staff was very friendly.
He was extremely professional, knowledgable, thorough and kind– even offering me a discount as a first time customer!
He went above and beyond to tailor my entire suit, thoroughly measuring everything and listening to my ideas while offering his expertise. I was very happy with the results– my suit was perfectly tailored, clean and pressed. And he even gave me a garment bag since I was traveling!
Very happy with my experience– will definitely make him my go-​to tailor!

Me encanto su servicio profesional. Se los recomiendo a todos.
The service was so professional. Customer service people pay attention: go there and take notes. Thank you very much. Salvador
