Beach Cities Cleaners

Good service, fast, good quality work. I trust them with all of my clothes. I have been coming here for a while and have yet to have any issues. They always have my clothes ready when they say they will, they seem to have an organized system and have long enough hours to be convenient for most. For being in hermosa I think the prices are fair.
Disregard the stars average here — Unilocal is hiding most of the good reviews (click non-​recommended reviews). Probably because they won’t pay as much as Unilocal wants for advertising.

This place is great. I took in a ton of shirts, skirts, suits, dresses, and blouses and they all came back looking brand new. They were even able to fix the lining in one of my skirts. Got a great discount for being a first time customer and the customer service was excellent — the nice owner carried my clothing out to my car for me!

The quality of the work is horrible. I tried them out since I am new to the area and Debonair was a little pricey for me. I had a couple alterations done and the prices were ridiculous. I wouldn’t go back even if it was free. You do get what you pay for in this place.

I brought in a set of expensive curtains that were custom made for my employer. I inadvertently got a small bit of paint on them. There was also some mold on the bottom edge. I asked if it would be problem to get out and was informed that it shouldn’t be a problem as the paint was fresh. He put a bit of red tape near the paint, cool.
Well I went to pick up the curtains when they said they’d be ready. I asked how the stains were, did they come out. Guy behind the counter said he was sure they did. As I was pulling them out of the bag to see for myself, he says I can bring them back if they aren’t clean. I’m here now, so I continue to look for the paint stain. It’s small so difficult to locate quickly unless their hanging. Then there it is, it doesn’t look any different than when I brought it in! I check the mold on the bottom hem, still there! Grrrr! :(
He said they’d give it another shot. A few days later I call, their still working on them I’m informed. I give it a few more days and call again. I’m told their ready. As I pull them out of the bag counter guy says they’ve tried 3 times to get the stains out. The paint looks the same, the mold looks to be slightly lighter. My heart sinks, I’m imagining what it’s going to cost me to replace them, realizing these guys aren’t interested in doing anymore. I ask how much do I owe them. $ 69. I ask if that’s with the 50% discount the sign out front advertises for first time customers. He informs me that applies only to shirts. Doesn’t say that on the sign. As I’m leaving obviously not happy, he says «and besides the regular price is $ 98»
Really… for not cleaning my curtains.
Once I’m in my truck I check Unilocal for the highest rated cleaners in the area. Rainbow Cleaners on Aviation came up on the top of the list. Check my review there for how a man of integrity treats his customers when a tough bit of cleaning comes in.

best cleaners in town!.I took my wedding dress there to be cleaned a boxed to store and they did an amazing job. It came in a beautiful display box that is easy to store and Mike was so helpful with giving me ideas on how to preserve my dress. I highly recommend beach city cleaners for your dry cleaning needs :)

its a dry cleaners so i cant really get all excited about it, but they are nice and my clothes are clean. what more could i ask for

Worst customer service ever! I went to get 2 pairs of jeans hemmed and when I saw how they completely screwed up the hem… wrong color thread, crooked, and also made it 2 inches from bottom, I went back to have it redone… no complainting… just fix it. Well the owner (white haired older guy) told me it was my problem and I’d have to pay to have it done again! With so many cleaners around the beach cities, don’t bother w/​this place. They don’t deserve your business!

Mike does a fine job with my husband’s shirts. We’ve been laundering shirts here for about three months and so far so good. I like how he arranges the shirt arms so, when I pick them up, I can quickly and easily count to make sure all shirts are there. I had pants hemmed for myself, and that was fine too. I’ve had a few items dry cleaned and they’ve all turned out well.

Update — They *finally* returned the shirt. I’m still not entrusting them with more clothing for it to be sent home with someone else for weeks at a time.

This cleaners is a rip off!!! I brought in several button-​up shirts to get pressed both long sleeve and short. They supposedly charge about $ 1.90 per shirt, but when I picked up the shirts, the bill was much higher than anticipated. When I asked for a break down of the price he explained that the short sleeve shirts cost $ 3.45 because they are silk. I informed him that they are not silk, to which he replied that they are silk. I explained that they are infact the same material as the long sleeve shirts, which are a blend of cotton and or polyester. He again replied that they are silk, to which I opened the shirts and showed him that none of them are silk. He had nothing to say but «oh». I let him know that I can not afford these prices and will need to take my shirt pressing business elsewhere. I also brought in a pair of pants that where not ready when he promissed, so I had to go back to pick those up another day. Not very professional or courtious.

They say people join Unilocal to either write a really good or really bad review. I’ll let you figure out which one this is… So I go to Beach Cities Cleaners on Monday with a dress that needed a zipper replaced so I could wear it to my work Halloween party on Thursday. I asked how much it would be before handing the dress over, and was told $ 15. I accepted the price and got my little ticket saying it would be ready on Wednesday. I go in the afternoon on Wednesday at about 2 to check on it, and it wasn’t ready yet, come back after 5. Around 4:30 I get a call from what I am assuming is the son saying it won’t be ready until Thursday (the day I needed it). They tried to tell me 12, but I finally got them to commit to having it ready by 9 at the latest. So, when I go in to get my dress the guy tells me $ 27! First, this is almost twice the price I was told on Monday, and second, when the son called to tell me it wasn’t ready, he said it would be done free. After arguing with the guy for about ten minutes about the price and him ripping the dress out of my hands and threatening to take out the zipper, I agreed to pay because I needed to get to work. But then, he wouldn’t take my card because he didn’t «trust» me. You’re the one who can’t be trusted. I had to walk to the Ralph’s get cash and go back for my dress. I didn’t want to leave my dress in his hands any longer than I had to. Bottom line, want to be bamboozled and taken to the cleaners, literally, go here. If you want quality work done quickly and for a fair price, go somewhere else.
