I am so happy I found this business. The owners are truly nice people. They found a creative solution to my shoe problem--at a reasonable price. If I need shoe repair again, I would NOT hesitate to go to them--and you should too!

I feel fortunate to be able to bring my business to this establishment. This is the best of the best. I travel from Oakland to come here. For the price, I think I am actually getting more than I pay for. Thank you Orinda Shoe Service.
