Paragon Dry Cleaners & Laundry

The owner has been in business for over 40 years and it shows! I’m a loyal customer when I find a place I like, and they never fall short of meeting my expectations. They’re friendly, reasonably priced, and have a great turnaround on clothing.

The best dry cleaners in LA that I have been to. Excellent, friendly customer service. The owner even advised on what items could be washed vs. dry cleaned, and why laundering some shirts was actually better than dry cleaning them for certain colors, when she could have very well just charged me more for dry cleaning all of them as I had initially requested. All items came back well pressed and even looking like new. I don’t know why some reviews are saying they are expensive, seems like average dry cleaning prices, to me.

While a bit pricey, I would never go anywhere else. My clothes are always impeccably cleaned and pressed. Their new alterations guy is top notch! He was able to repair a dress that I had taken to 3 different tailors in LA who said they could not fix the dress. Several years ago, I also took in an old vintage bathing suit that belonged to my great-​grandmother. It was completely yellowed and I had no hopes that they could restore it. They told me they would attempt to do so, and when I got it back it looked brand spanking new! Love this place.

The staff is professional, very fast, efficient and excellent customer service. The staff at this business starting from the mgr to the front service staff are awesome, professional. The price are fair and affordable.

I decided to try Paragon because my normal dry cleaner was already closed. I came in with 1 wool and 1 cashmere sweater. The guy quoted me for $ 16. When I asked about getting the fuzz balls off the cashmere sweater, he told me it was called delinting, which was optional and would cost twice as much. He actually recommended me to use a razor at home instead, so I told him I didn’t want it delinted.
Anyway, I show up 2 days later, to find out I was charged $ 22 instead. I told the lady I didn’t ask for the delinting service, but all she said was she had to because there was cat hairs. Yes, I have a cat, but I lint rolled my sweater before I even brought it in for dry cleaning. I didn’t want to argue about $ 6, but it’s really the principal of it, adding on services seems kind of sneaky to me.
I didn’t get to examine their work until I got home. The ironic thing was, there was still cat hairs and fuzz balls on my cashmere sweater. I’ve learned my lesson, stick to my trusted Korean dry cleaning lady in Echo Park. Sure, Paragon can finish the job by one business day, but that’s because they don’t pay full attention to detail.
First and last visit. Sorry :(

good cleaning but terrible «expert alteration» took tons of time, extra details and the result made me cry.

5 star and amazing service and freindly ppl so every 1 must know that go to east go to west paragon dry cleaners and laundry the best

This is the best cleaners… Their service are amazing. The Manager is the best, they are very nice and they know how to do the best for us. This business has been here for 41 years and they do all the LA Operas and Pantages costumes. They are amazing and the workers are so nice. Diana, Anord, Rudy, Abol, Shake they have been here for a long time and they have new girl Sona she is very nice. I highly recommend this place !!!

This place is amazing. They have the best service. I gave vintage dress and it was ready after one day. They really work very fast. And I am very happy with the prizes cause the quallity and servises are the best. And the best thing is that they deliver the clothes to my house. I am very happy with this place.

Amazing service, amazing management (Diana, I love her!) and beautiful results. I see why they service so many important productions and shows in the area. I brought a Bride’s Maid dress in to be tailored, two days later after a press and hem change, the results were fantastic. I highly recommend it and will continue to come with all my dry clean/​tailoring needs.

This is one of my favorite Dry Cleaners to do business with. This family owned business has been here for years, and the consistency of their service stayed the same throughout the years. The management is very helpful and associates always take great care of clothes. The service is fast and efficient.

Buyer beware! I am extremely unhappy with them!
I gave them 4 items; 1 vintage dress to repair the zipper and 3 cheap cotton dresses to dry clean (I wanted them to last longer).
$ 8 for the repair which is acceptable and understandable. I was honestly shocked it was that cheap because I was quoted $ 15. Cool, whatever I’m not complaining.
$ 38.35 to dry clean 3 cotton knee length dresses?! You’re out of your *bleep* *bleep* *bleep*!!! That’s more than I paid for all 3 of them together!
NEVER AGAIN! Go across the street to Snow White cleaners and have them do just as good if not better of a job. I got my King Size Duvet cleaned there for under $ 30. I’m actually embarrassed I didn’t go back there in the first place…

I have been using Paragon Cleaners now for more than 5 years. From the friendly greeting I always receive from Diana, Josie, Anard and Rebecca to the amazing quality of work they do I can’t imagine going anywhere else. My clothes come back without «that smell «and I love the fact that the bags they use are biodegradable! A favorite local business.

Five stars for a dry cleaner? At first glance that might be considered a bit excessive. But after considering I’ve been a customer for almost 14 years I couldn’t imagine giving anything less. Over the years I’ve brought in the easy gimmes like laundered shirts the really tough stains («holy crap this is my favorite sweater») and the last minute turnarounds. No matter what everything is done perfectly.
On a more personal side, I saw how the business took a hit when the original owner suddenly passed away and the family was forced to step up to keep the business going on. Without missing a beat.
Great people. Great work. Fair prices. The trifecta of what you want from a local business.

So the manager at this location has managed to put the blame on me with her reply to my previous review. Literally the worst business ever.
I absolutely did leave all details of my missing shirt with your attendant, and was never contacted by anyone regarding that issue. In fact, this is the first I’ve heard from you. It took me writing a negative review for you to take action and contact me, and it’s been over two weeks since the incident.
And no, I actually didn’t take any other garments to you after this incident happened, that’s a flat out lie. I actually picked up an additional item that was missing from the time I had to search your racks for 30 mins looking for my clothes.
Worst customer service ever.

Tried these guys for the first time. Great service, rates and turnaround! The tailor is absolutely amazing!

These guys are simply the best there is! I dare you to try and stump them with a dry cleaning problem… literally nothing they can’t handle. Been there forever and seen it all.

These guys are amazing. I recommended them to all my friends. I have a lot of clients who move to Los Angeles and when I recommend Paragon Cleaners they cannot stop thanking me. But it is not me it is Taline they should thank. Taline and her staff go above and beyond to make things happen with amazing customer service and incredible care and attention. Taline is very knowledgeable and will meet and exceed all your dry cleaning needs.

Came in to get my dress shortened for an important event. When it was ready I brought it home and tried it on and the lady ruined the dress. This dress was too short and uneven, my bottum was showing. This dress before was at knee length. I immediately went back and they said they could not do anything about it. I had to wait to speak with the owner or simstress. I went back in the next morning when the owner was there and she had a really bad attitude and blamed the customer for the error. I than showed her a picture what the dress should look like and than she didnt even apologize, but had the simstress fix it. So i gave them another chance and she made it worse than before leaving layers longer in front and short in the back (very uneven). the workers there saw how bad the dress looked and had a shocked face when i tried it on. I did not get an apology nor my money back. Fortunately, a gentelman was able to cut the dress again and at least make it even, but still too short. It was very dissapointing and to the point that i wanted to make a law suit. They should not have people working their that accept jobs they cannot do.

Customer for over 12 years here. Solid place. Not the least expensive and they are closed on Sundays but the fact that they clean the Disney and Pantages costumes should say it all.
