Mr Anthony Cleaners

DO NOT GO HERE.
This is the third time they have sent back my clothes with mysterious blue stains on them. The first was a brand new Cashmere Silk Sweater — never worn. They admitted using the wrong chemicals. They tried but couldn’t get it out and they would not reimburse me for the sweater nor did they reimburse me for the cleaning! This week, the blue stain came back on two white silk blouses. While they got them out this time, they forgot to deliver them when done! I had to harass them to find them and return them to me.
I also tried their alterations and the female tailor ruined a simple strap adjustment — Two times!!!
This place is truly a disaster — avoid at all costs

Hi — posting an update to my earlier review. As I had mentioned — I had been a long time customer of this establishment. The other employees I encountered had always been lovely, especially the main counter employee (I believe her name is Betti, but could be mistaken). When I finally mustered the nerve to go pick up said dress in above post (seriously, I almost ditched the dress bc I did not want to see that ahole again), Betti apologized profusely and let me know that the horrendous tailor I had encountered was no longer working there. I didn’t pry for details because that’s none of my business, but she made it clear that they knew his behavior was not acceptable or professional, and should not be tolerated.
I appreciated the genuine apology and letting me know that I would not have to see this terrible employee again. Whether I’ll give them my personal business again is yet to be seen, but I would say if you are looking for a solid drycleaning place, this would be it. Never had any issues with the drycleaning to be honest. I would say it was certainly above average quality. And before Mr. Egomaniac, had never had any issues with the customer service either. As long as this said tailor is truly no longer working there, you should feel comfortable giving this place a shot.

Horrible and Rude Manager! Don’t Go Here!
We have been going to Mr. Anthony’s for the past year. Recently the service became awful. First, they didn’t pick up four times in two months after repeated calls. Second, and more important, when we called to tell them they didn’t pick up, especially this last time, the male manager had the audacity to literally scream at my husband. And when we went in to cancel our account since we didn’t want to be treated like this, the woman at the counter said the manager does this all the time. Unbelievable! Don’t risk being treated rudely by this horrible manager. There are many other cleaners who would love your business. If I could give zero stars for customer service I would. He is just awful and MEAN!

Adore Mr. Anthony’s! I have been here on many occasions under different circumstances.
At one time, I brought literally 27 pieces. Some to be dry cleaned, some to be altered, some to be repaired, and nearly all of them to be treated for stains. As I was handing the pleasant lady my clothing I took a picture of each article to avoid any confusion and to ensure that I would not forget what I had brought and what condition it was in. Though some people would lose their patience over this, the lady did not express any intolerance and instead held up each piece for me to take a proper photo. Furthermore she never cringed even after the 27^th sweat stain. This made me happy and comfortable.
I was able to pick everything up in a reasonable amount of time. Very happy with the quality of each job. My suit pants were hemmed to perfection, there was no trace of any sweat stain, which other dry cleaners had previously tried to remove but found it «impossible», and I was even given a 10% discount because of the amount of clothes I had dropped off.
Since then, I have returned at least ten times for silk shirts and dresses, furs, which they send to out of house cleaners, and I attempted to drop off leather pants to be conditioned but I was kindly advised against it as it would’ve been a waste of money due to my admittedly irresponsible habits of washing and drying the pants at home. Whoops.
I believe that his suggestion for me to save my money rather than to throw $ 50 away over a pair of leather pants that can’t be salvaged is an indication of Mr. Anthony’s earnestness!
Don’t hesitate to come here for all of your dry cleaning needs!

–I had a suit pant altered here ($ 18) and they did it in a timely matter (3 business days). I noticed no mistakes (to an untrained eye) and the pants fit well
–I had pants hemmed here as well. The price may seem slightly higher than neighboring tailors but you get what you pay for. So far no complaints on the quality of work.
–The only complaint is that the changing room isn’t the cleanest

This review is for their tailoring. If you scan through my reviews, you’ll see that I went to a place in the West Village that my fellow Unilocalers highly recommended and was truly disappointed. It is one of the very few bad reviews that I’ve written — I hate complaining.
I lost two sizes (Go me!) and needed a lot of my favorite clothing altered. Not only did the tailor do right by me — I mean great work. He does a fantastic job! He does it quickly with no excuses. A few times, he’s delivered before the agreed upon date.
Go here be happy!

I had 7 suits tailored by Phil May 2012 and he did an amazing job!-my co-​workers thought I bought many news suits…
highly recommended,
dry clean service is good, well priced and they do have good customer service,

The dry cleaning was alright, I mainly get my shirts that are difficult to iron dry cleaned and they don’t really do any better of a job than I could do.
Also, I got a few dresses tailored here and they did a terrible job! The lady is adorable and acts like she knows what she is doing, but don’t let her fool you. Her prices are ridiculous, soooo expensive so I was expecting a really good job. Her hemming was ok, not great but it’ll do. I also needed her to take in the sides, she did ok with one and terrible with the other. My dress had a built in slip so obviously when you take a dress in on the sides you need to take that in too, she didn’t — so now I have all this bulky fabric underneath. Needless to say i can’t wear it and will need to get it re-​hemmed.
DON’T DO YOUR TAILORING HERE!

You get what you pay for here. Mr. Anthony is in my experience the highest quality dry cleaner in Gramercy East and, accordingly, the most expensive. I take my best suits, sweaters and coats here because they do an excellent job, always on time, and keep the garments in perfect condition.
That being said, because Mr. Anthony is cost-​prohibitive, I take everything else (pressed shirts, pants, and wash and fold) to the nearby Skyline Cleaners which does an acceptable job on those items and charges significantly less.
I also highly recommend Mr. Anthony’s in-​house tailor. I’ve used him at least 10 times and the results are always spot-​on. During my last visit, I chatted with a woman who had moved from Gramercy to the Upper West Side but still came to Mr. Anthony for all of her tailoring. He’s very good.

Mr. Anthony’s ladies quoted me a price that seemed fair to repair a zipper on my dress. Two days later they called me back and told me that they’d made a mistake and that the actual price would be at least $ 12 more. Considering that I needed to wear the dress 3 days from the day they called, I was left with no option but to pay the extra fee. Unprofessional and highly shady. Avoid!
