Luyen Tailor Shop

I read the reviews about this shop and had to laugh. I agree that the owner is a little rough around the edges but I have yet to find another tailor who can match his work. If you want a dinner guest, look elsewhere. If you want great tailor work on you clothes, this is your place.

Under the new ownership and management of the lovely and friendly Yan, Luyen Tailor Shop has turned into one of the best tailors in North Raleigh.
As a business man, I purchase about 8 to 10 suits per year which all need to be taken-​in and hemmed, not to mention the additional alteration needs of my family. Luyen’s have always done a great job and on occasion, have graciously done the work again free of charge if I felt it was taken in too much or not enough.
Luyen Tailor Shop is also the lowest price tailor shop probably in North Raleigh, if not in all Raleigh. I know because I have compared them to no less than 6 other tailors throughout the city and they always come out as the best work for your bottom dollar. Just keep in mind that in order to keep their prices this low, they do not accept credit cards. Cash or check only.
This place always has a steady flow of people but never so busy that you have to wait to be served. With a lovely smile, Yan will take your measurements in a jiffy and the three changing rooms make for quick service.
Stop in and see Yan at Luyen Tailor Shop and I’ll guarantee you won’t be disappointed.

I have used this place for a few years. It has consistently gone downhill. At first, it was adequate, then it devolved to barely acceptable. Last visit it had plunged into inhospitable. The owner has grown increasingly rude. The past few visits, work that was supposed to be done was either not performed or done so haphazardly.
I have set out to find a new tailor (quite a task in Raleigh), as I refuse to go back to this ogre, and his diminishing quality of work.
Caveat emptor

Horrible!!! They took cash, hold item for two weeks and spoiled my fabric! No receipt was given — and they refuse to give money back or fix the problem. Rude people who work with no licence. I filed complaine.

Great job of my coat, well done of the re weave

I brought 3 pairs of maternity jeans in on a Monday afternoon. The owner said I could pay then, or when I pick up. It was $ 42 and I had cash so I paid right then. He didn’t give me a receipt or anything other than the ticket to come back. I figured we were fine, he does this everyday. I come back Thursday morning (when he said to), and he brings out the pants and says «that is $ 42.» I said, «I paid you on Monday when I left these with you.» He starts getting excited saying «no way. I always write „paid“ on these tickets» (which he apparently just didn’t do) and calls me a liar. I even tried to appeal to him, I said «I’m 6 mos pregnant, why would I purposely cheat you out of $ 42? Don’t you even remember when I was here?» He’s like «I am busy, see so many people everyday, you think i remember?» So I said «well that’s why you forgot to write this down. I swear on my father’s grave that I paid you, and I’m taking my pants and leaving now.» As I turned to walk out he goes «sure, take your pants and you get in car accident.» I couldn’t believe it. I just walked out. This man is clearly wrong and took it to a level that is truly unacceptable. I would be remiss if I didn’t post a negative review so our community knows what Luyen Tailor Shop at Stonehenge shopping center is all about.
