Hung Tailoring

Zero stars if possible! At first they were a gem. Always brought them customers, she knew my aunt. Original hem for designer jeans and work slacks were my staple. She used to get them done same day, sometimes it would take a few days depending on how many items.
After a few times with pants I started to bring in more intricate (nicer) items. The first dress she would talk me out of fixing, stating that it wouldn’t be possible. But then the truth comes out and she wanted my dress for herself! She said she can’t fix it, but I said well I bought it online so I don’t want to deal with shipping. Should of just took it elsewhere. But she insists she will buy it from me! Naïve and young as I was I accepted her offer. Should have took that as a sign of what kind of sneaky crooked seamstress she is! BTW Hemming a dress is not hard to do. It is not impossible. She was either 1. LAZY to do it but more likely 2. She coveted the dress for herself! Why fix it for me when she basically shopped and bought it for herself! Totally unprofessional!
Because I didn’t know any better I brought my friend in to get her bday party dress hemmed, along with some brand new pants I bought from Express (about 4 – 5 pairs). She said she would need some time to do it all. My friend says she needs the dress asap but has to work so she asks me in front of the seamstress to pick it up for her. Every one agreed that it would be fine. I would have to come back later for the pants though.
She never calls or never gives a proper receipt but I never thought it was necessary as it was never an issue before. She knew me by name as I’d come often. You can’t expect too much from a small Vietnamese mom and pop shop any way. Besides she was my aunt’s friend so no harm right?
A few days pass and I come in to get the dress and she demands that I show her a receipt! She acted as if I was a stranger! Mind you I came here for years! I got on the phone with my friend and only then she brought out the dress. But she still wouldn’t give it to me because she said it’s not mine! It even had a slip that she tagged to it with MY name on it!!! She still refused so I left.
I thought well maybe it’s the language or cultural barrier so let’s get my aunt on the phone… My aunt says she’s out of town, go back there with your mom. Maybe your mom can talk it out with her. Maybe my Vietnamese is to blame.
Dude. The vile woman struck my mom! SHE STRAIGHT UP STEALS GARMENTS AND THEN ATTACKS YOU WHEN YOU CALL HER OUT! She started to pull my mom’s hair and I literally was dumbfounded! Mind you my mother is of retirement age, sweetest, quiet and proper woman. My mom wasn’t even mad or rude about it. She just wanted to hear what she had to say about it and instead of being a grown woman about it she went straight to physical contact! We did not deserve to be assaulted. All we wanted was our clothes back.
She claims I never brought in any pants. That she doesn’t recognize me. In summary she jacked all of my work slacks and assaulted my mom during the process. She goes I’ll call the cops, I said please do! But I beat her to it and we managed to at the very least leave with my friend’s dress which still had MY name tag pinned to it!!! THE NERVE!
NEVER EVER EVER EVER AGAIN!
Don’t worry I will be back with a full Vietnamese translation so that all of Little Saigon can understand the utmost foul and horrible service this evil crooked woman will do to her most loyal customers. UPDATE: now she’s got her kid son harassing me! Does anyone know if we can upload video footage on this piece? Because I would love to show this kid what an insane person his mother really is. Funny that I’m NOT the only customer that this woman has screwed over. Look at ALL the past reviews that didn’t get showcased.

Brought about a dozen jeans yesterday around 10 am to shortened and to be hemmed. I was expecting all of them to be done by at least next Sunday. About 3 hours later, we received a phone call from the lady owner and she said they were all ready for pick up. I though it was a mistake, how could she do it that fast. Today I went there myself not really expecting all of them to be done. Not only were they all done, they were perfect. Some of them even had the original hem stitching. What was the most shocking of all was how reasonable it was. I’m not telling price because I challenge you have to see for yourself.

If i can give this place 0 star, I definitely would. Came here around august to have my dress fix for my wedding reception. And yes they ruined the dress. I asked them to hem up the line and fix the waist part a bit smaller. By the day that i came to pick it up, when i tried on the dress looked completely f* up. They hem it way too much that it doesnt look like a long dress anymore. It looked short in front and long in the back, not even. The back of the dress was crooked. I asked her to return my money and she was like «you were ok when I did the sample for you at first». But trust me, the mark on the dress that she tried for me before she fixed it is completely different. It’s for my wedding!!! If it looked like it was before then there is no reason for me to get mad. Even my husband said it looked weird. The result is she refused to give back my money. I have to go and buy a different dress. Never ever go back here again !

Have you ever had that sinking feeling you get when things are going very bad, very fast?
Such was the feeling my wife had when trying on a bridesmaid’s dress this past Saturday night. That’s right, with the wedding the next day, the dress DID… NOT…FIT. She is in full blown panic with the wedding 16 hours away. So what is a super terrific husband to do (talking about me now)? Through Unilocal,I find a few places that are open on Sundays within 20 miles and tell her I will drive to each one to get it fixed in time. So yesterday morning, the first tailor I try says they can have it ready late that night. The second is closed. Now I too am getting that sinking feeling that this won’t end well.
Enter Hung Tailoring. I show up and the tailor looks it over and thinks she might be able to take it out a little bit out. After some minor pleading on my part, she says she can have it ready by 1, which is 3 hours before the wedding starts. I come back at 1 and she has it ready just then, and it looks great. I rush the dress to my wife and the dress fit perfectly.
What went from being a sure disaster turned into a great success. Thanks Hung Tailoring for making me a hero to everyone in the wedding party. I can do no wrong now. Oh yeah, and it was only $ 30. That has got to be the lowest price ever for a miracle.

I love this place! I feel really bad for the Unilocaler below who had that experience with the lady, she’s been nice and sweet to me every time. I can usually get same day turnaround if I come in the morning as well!
-$ 4 for simple hem — you can try your pants on in there for her or usually i just tell her my inseam — EASY
-$ 8 to keep the original hem
$ 12 — MAGIC… ie when you somehow rip/​wear out the inside lining of your pants on your inner thigh on your super expensive jeans yet you don’t want to buy a new pair because they are still good? Yeah Ladies — you know what I’m talking about! yup — she can sort of hobo patch up rips and make sure the world won’t know your jeans got hobo patched. It’s not good as new, it’s good and better than shelling out $ 140 for a new pair of designer pants.
Since you are in the middle of bolsa expect the standard: Ask for a receipt, pay at the time of getting your stuff done, ask for a business card, speak in polite asian and often use your secret vietnamese name because the lady can’t pronounce your American Name.

$ 4 for a straight hem and $ 8 for original hem (reattach). I think taking in shirts is around $ 10. They have a small dressing room for you to try on the clothes and the lady there (who is really nice) will pin the clothes where you want it.
The work is usually pretty good. Maybe some leftover over threads or markings here and there but nothing big. I definitely trust them with my designer jeans. I got some shirts taken in and some came out perfect, some came out a little tight.
I think the work is outsourced to other seamstresses so the lady usually tries to give you a 2 – 3 day turnaround time but if you ask for same day service, she can probably do it for you.

4 Bucks to hem pants! And they do a great job. Cuffs and other special jobs cost a little more, but still less expensive then other places. If quality and price were not enough, they also have same day service for no extra charge. Wow!
I have had almost a dozen pants hemmed here, and my wife two dozen. Perfect every time.
Primary language is in Vietnamese but they will understand, just don’t expect any chit chat.
