This place is a mixed bag, but it is one of the few places where I can park and get errands done, and I have not necessarily found a better alternative. The people here do quality work, but they can have a seriously negative attitude about what you're asking them to do even if it is a typical tailoring task!

Reid's is the absolute best tailor in SF! I've taken over 50+ items to them over the past 2.5 years and they always do an excellent job (and many of the items I have brought are not easy fixes). Quick service as well and genuinely talented tailors. Cash only but very worth it for their craftsmanship. The attention to detail is superb. Reid's is a must go for any tailoring needs in SF!

I've taken two bridesmaid dresses to Reid's and was super happy with the results. Both times they got down to business right away and had me try on the dress and started measuring/pinning/opening seams up. Turnaround time is great (most recently I brought it in on a Monday and picked up that Thursday AM) and price feels fair (around $80 for each dress, alterations like taking in/taking out).
