Dry Clean Express

I would NOT recommend them for alterations/​hems. Took in a dress and it was hemmed not only shorter than what I asked for but done very poorly (the hem is literally a crooked line in some parts).

They are NOT open on Sundays. Edit has been submitted to Unilocal

I have been to several different dry cleaners and find this place to be the best. My stuff comes out clean and on time. The ladies that operate the front are always smiling and super pleasant.

BEWARE OF THIS DRY CLEAN EXPRESS SANTA MONICA
The cleaner loose clients clothes and if any clothes are given back to clients the dry cleaned items are with STAINS, SPOTS and DISCOLORATION
The Cashier is a Fat rude blonde Hispanic woman ARICELLI who run the business without supervision of the manager or the Business owner, She is RUDE, AGGRESSIVE and does not have any MANNER OR ETIQUETTE. She is a low class woman who run this so called ‘Dry cleaner“
To the Owner of this dry cleaner, if you like your business maybe you should pay a little more money and hire a cashier who has some manner and knows about customer service. Even if you hire High school students they will run your business with more courtesy. Do not leave your business un attended without your own supervision or a manager in the store, because people like your cashier ARICELLI will be bringing your business down BIG TIME .
FAT ARICELLI talks to clients as she has the power to do what she wants ‚
The quality of your cleaner is poor and numerous times the so called Dry cleaned clothes was given back with the same stain and spots the only thing was done they had pressed the dirty clothes and given with a new cover ‚
This is not how you should run your business or treat your clients. !!! Also every time you charge different prices for the same items, which is ridiculous !!!
CLIENTS STAY AWAY OF THIS CLEANER, THERE ARE OTHER GOOD CLEANERS AROUND TOWN WHO REALLY CLEAN YOUR CLOTHS AND HAVE COURTESY AND MANNER
THIS CLEANER DOES NOT EVEN DESERVE ONE STAR, BUT SINCE THE REVIEW WILL NOT BE POSTED WITHOUT RATING I HAD TO GIVE ONE STAR

dry clean express was recommended to me second hand, as it’s relatively close to my work. i brought in a number of things, including a beautiful satin prada skirt. the skirt needed to be cleaned and to have a hook (as in, hook and eye) replaced.
when i came back to pick up the items, the hook was not fixed on the skirt. they told me to come back.
i came back and picked the stuff up, but ME BAD i didn’t take a look at everything right away. who does, right? who sits there at the dry cleaners and pulls everything out of the plastic to see if they dry cleaner screwed it up?
well, lesson learned the hard way. when i finally pulled the prada skirt out of the plastic, i was heartbroken to find it was utterly ruined. the beautiful smooth luster of the satin was gone, and the material was rough and puckered. the skirt had shrunk and the lining was showing at the bottom.
i didn’t bother to take it back, as i hoped the problem was just that they didn’t press it. i took it to another place which told me that my skirt had been washed, in regular hot water. it *might* get its sheen back with repeated treatments, but for now… it is not the same skirt at all.
so bottom line: they ruined a skirt that cost more than a grand. their «tailoring» work isn’t done on time. their prices are standard issue west side expensive.

This review is long in coming so now I’m ready…
I had been coming here for quite a long time and had a decent experience as far as experiences can be with a dry cleaner. Then here comes that day we all dread… they loose my clothes.
Two beautiful chenille sweaters, one of which was my favorite and pretty costly, not that the other was cheap, but that one was my ‘go to’ piece — dress up or down for any occasion and I LOVED IT. So the girl behind the counter tells me who the ‘other girl’ accidentally gives my clothes to someone else and that she has tried to contact him. This little charade goes on for months. I keep checking in extremely patiently as I know accidents can happen and they are spinning a great story of how this guy goes there all the time, a regular customer, a pharmacist at CVS yadda yadda yadda — well now the story slightly morphs and I’m done. Is there a pharmacist? Did she do it or did the other girl? WHO CARES!
At about month 4 I want reimbursement and they want to give me pennies for my beautiful sweaters. I go back n’ forth with the owner who at this point is basically just an obnoxious blowhard and is not budging or calling me back. Or if I do get him on the phone I get more of the runaround. We will just give you some free dry cleaning — without a dollar amount put on that I might add. Now this is upsetting me physically so I show up at his store and we go back n’ forth with witnesses and tell him I’m going to take him to small claims court and after 20 minutes I finally settled on about 30 cents on the dollar — IF THAT. He won in the fact that who wants to ever see him again. And I’m sure that’s how he gets away with this crap! It makes me sick now to even think back.
He says we only pay this for this item and that for that item and I’m thinking what decade are these prices he is going by. Have you shopped since 1960? It was such a joke and I was tired of being angry and getting an upset stomach over this. My very, VERY favorite sweater is probably being worn by one of his relatives.

This was my first time doing dry cleaning here. I was too lazy to shop around since I was kind of desperate. So I came here out of convenience and they were having a 2 for 1 special!
Regular jacket $ 10
Regular jacket with belt $ 12
Dress $ 8
Pants $ 6
Items are ready by 5pm the next day unless otherwise noted. They were friendly and efficient. I think I’ll shop around to see if there are better prices out there but so far this place is okay! Convenient parking lot available.

I’ve tried other Dry Cleaning services around the area but this place is the BEST — in terms of service, price and overall vibe. I have been taking clothes here to get it dry cleaned and altered for the last 2 – 3 years and have always been satisfied with the results. The ladies (Sylvia and Cruz) that work at the front desk/​cashier are personable and helpful. The tailor is super sweet and does an excellent job on alterations. The prices are reasonable too. I just love this place!
There’s usually parking available on the lot shared by other businesses.

I can’t believe this place hasn’t been officially Unilocaled! As far as dry cleaners on the West side of LA go, this place is the AMAZING!!! I take my clothes here for alterations, and my boyfriends work shirts here to have them laundered– and of course we bring all our dry cleaning here.
Here’s the amazing part– This place is super inexpensive!!!
.99 per laundered shirt! This absolutely saves me from having to wash and iron my boyfriend’s shirts.
They’ve repaired zippers on jeans that have broken (or burst from too much mayo or deep fried foods), they’ve altered my dresses, and when you’re in a super pinch the women here will go out of their way to get things done for you with lightening fast speed!
The workers here are all extremely friendly, and I wouldn’t take my business anywhere else. I’m frugal with my 5 stars, and this place has earned ever single one!
Pros: Extremely inexpensive pricing, super fast and friendly service.
Cons: The parking lot is always kind of a cluster, but it’s well worth it!
This place will not disappoint ;-)
