Linda’s Tailor

I just had two pairs of my son’s jeans altered here. The hems were perfect and I was able to pick them up next day. I will definitely return here for future alterations.

I went here for the first time about 2 months ago to replace the zipper on my AA pants. Walking in, it seemed as though the seamstress was busy helping a client plan out her bridesmaid’s dress alterations. Still, I was seen almost immediately by the front desk girl. She told me to fill out a quick slip and that my pants would be ready the next day. I told her I wouldn’t be able to pick it up until Saturday and she said that would be fine.
When I got my pants back, it looks as if it was brand new! I was so pleased with her work. The total was only $ 10, cash only. It’s been 2 months and everything still looks fine. I’ll definitely be back if I ever need alterations or a quick fix.

Repeat customer here. $ 30 to get bridesmaid dress hemmed. Cash. Takes less than a week.

Went there today. Niece of owner (her aunt) was very rude. Told me to go through a huge bag of different buttons and try to find the one I wanted. Then she scooted me to the side for the next customer. She tried to sway me not to try to find a button. Then I found one that was OK, and she sewed it on quick. I told her I’d be back if it fell off and she said, «don’t come back. Here, give me the shirt. I’ll take the button off.
Arrogant and unprofessional place. Pretty much: if the job they do falls short (seems come undone, button falls off) they will not back it up with a guarantee.

NO GOOD

I’ve gone here a million times to get my pants/​skirts hemmed, cuz I’m a shorty and have to get all pants hemmed. I think the prices are very reasonable and the turnaround time is great. I’m never in a rush, so the standard timing is about 3 days. I’ve read on here that they do have expedited services but I’ve yet to try them out. They’ve never messed up or lost an order, so I always feel in great hands when I bring my things here. –devoted customer

I bought my jumpsuit here to get altered. The underlying bust was too small and I couldn’t get it to zip. Linda was able to add fabric to it and it fit like a glove! She had it done in two days and I couldn’t be happier.

I read mixed reviews here and decided to give this place a try. I had 5 jeans that need to shorten their length. For $ 6 per jeans, I think the prices here are good. They did not do the same as new finish that I guess you get for $ 12 but I think it doesn’t look bad at all. In fact I like them better for jeans with gray or black color. They did a fantastic job. I called a day before my pick up date to ask if we are still on schedule and she said yes and delivered on time. I would definitely recommend this place if you want to get your pants hemmed.

The ladies here are very nice. Great customer service and quality! I’ve been coming here for the past 13 years and can’t complain about one thing. Prices are very reasonable as well!

I love this place! I had 3 alterations here and they did an amazing job. This is my go to spot now :]

I just found my new go-​to spot for alterations. The main reason is because of the overall service. The prices are just as low as other places in this area, but the ladies who work here are so sweet, cheerful, and nice! I had to get a bridesmaid dress altered, expecting to pay a grip and to pick up weeks later because of the material of the dress… it only coast $ 20, and was ready within a week. Noice! Taking my jeans here for sure next time.

Affordable and quality work. She has same-​day alterations if you need. Location is a bit difficult for parking so come early if you can.

This is my go to alteration place! They always do a great job and it is the cheapest service around so you can’t get any better than that!
I usually hem my pants here but by the sound of other reviews, I was paying more than others since they charged me $ 6 a pair to be shortened.
I once brought in three crop tops that needed to be taken in and a strap sowed back in, a jacket that needed several buttons sown back in and I believe a shirt that had a tear and paid around $ 20 which I think is super reasonable considering the type of sowing job the buttons on my jacket needed (6 buttons that kinda hang). They are usually very fast and give me a week to pick up but my items are usually done within a few days of dropping off.
Same day service fee charge is $ 2+ depending on your item.
Their location isn’t prime as they are on a corner of a busy street and at the end of a street light. I usually park a few houses down or in the mini mart area directly in front of it.
I have no complaints from this place and would recommend it however, I have never gotten higher end products altered here so I cannot speak to that.

I had a bridesmaid dress that needed some serious alterations. Although I had purchased my bridesmaid dress in advance, I did not receive it until the week of the wedding. I went in to Linda’s on a Tuesday and she assured me that the dress would be ready by that Friday and IT WAS! the fitting was quick, I did it during my lunch break, and the result was wonderful. The only reason I didn’t give them 5 stars was because they told me it would be finished by 12pm on Friday and when I went in, they told me they still needed a few hours. They finished by 3, but it still made me nervous to have to wait because I had to leave town to attend the wedding and I didnt have a chance to try it on before leaving.
Overall, they saved my week! so thank you Linda’s! :)

Whenever I need to get my clothes altered quickly, I go here. And boy is it often; especially when everything I buy, that’s off the rack, never seems to fit me like I want it to.
At Linda’s, I can usually expect to get my dress shirts back within a day or two, or even a few hours, depending on how busy their schedule is. All I know is that one thing’s for certain, they’re good at what they do.
On one particular event, I had a wedding to go to on the following day and I really needed to get my shirt fitted. After telling the staff at Linda’s about my situation, they told me that I could pick up my shirt within a few hours, and before you know it, my shirt was ready that evening.
The only thing I don’t like about their location is parking, because although they do offer a few spots on their driveway, it’s usually taken. So when it comes to that, and it does, I’ll usually have to find parking on the street, and in all honesty, it can get a little tough.
Other than that, if you’re in a hurry to get your clothes altered quickly, Linda’s is definitely something you should look into. The staff are friendly, prices are fair, and their turnaround time is quick.
Tip: Cash Only!

Been here twice. Had some alteration done on 3 pants on one visit and a suit on other. Linda did great job both time and the clothes fit great. I wanted the 3 pants to fit more like a slim straight fitting instead of regular baggy what I originally had. The pants feel great and I look like a model in them lol jk.
Great job tho. Linda is my go to tailor from now for any alterations. Oh and she got the 3 pants altered in 2 days so I got them back quick.

I always taken my jeans/​slacks here (6 pairs and counting). Without the original hem is super cheap, and about $ 4+ for original hem.
I’ve taken a top half of a suit here with good results.
I’ve even seen people with their Quinceanera dress so it looks like they can do elaborate items as well.
Speaks English and Vietnamese. It usually takes about 5 days for jeans but I think you can rush them if needed.
Its a residential home business, just like the many others on the East Side. Just pull up there driveway and try not to bump the window. Don’t walk around the neighborhood alone during after hours: P

Being frugal and not willing to spend more than $ 20 on tailoring, I dropped by here.
With all the Unilocal reviews, I trusted my Joe’s jeans would be in good hands.
Overall, I am impressed and will be using their service again when needed.
Love supporting Mom and Pop businesses:)

This is the first time I’ve needed to get my jeans tailored and I brought them here because my boyfriend got them done here before and they turned out decent.
2 pairs of jeans and 1 scrub pants needed shortening and tapering = $ 14/​pair seemed pretty pricey to me, but whatever. I wasn’t about to go hunt down another tailor. I was surprised with how long it took. Dropped them off on a Wednesday and was told to pick them up on Tuesday. Hm…
I was happy with the outcome and the girl did let me put each pair on and pinned them to the right size. I’d come again unless I find some place that is just as good with cheaper pricing.

I found Linda’s on Unilocal and have had a few dresses altered. Since I got a new job fairly recently, I treated myself to a bunch of Banana Republic and White House Black Market dresses. Unfortunately even petite sizing can fit weird when you’re a short Asian (haha).
From my handful of visits I haven’t had to wait too long to get help – even on the busier weekends. There is decent street parking and she has parking in front of the shop for customers which is nice.
Pricing isn’t super duper cheap like some other Asian places, but it’s definitely worth it. For me in particular, since I bring in work clothes that I feel are more «investment» pieces. One dress that needed to be shortened in the back/​torso area including redoing the zipper cost me $ 25. I wasn’t even sure if they could do it without the alterations ruining the shape of the dress, but was pleasantly surprised at the result.
Not sure what the turnaround time is for basic items like hemming pants, but I pick up my fairly complicated dress alterations by the following weekend.

A great place to get your clothes altered… Linda does a great job for tailoring shirts for you gents!
If you’re looking for a place that does a great job at tailoring your shirts (which you guys all should look into) look no further than here. It’s relatively close if you’re in the South San Jose area; however, do try to avoid this place when it’s a weekday afternoon like 4−6PM. Traffic is backed up pretty bad on story road.
