When I moved to E 23rd Street, I initially went to a closer tailor who ended doing a terrible job on my alterations. I looked online and saw a review about Hattan, on 14th and 3rd, and thought, what the hell, I'm desperate, I'll walk the seven-plus blocks. I took them my laundry, dry cleaning and the clothes that had been badly altered at the last tailor.
You never know whether to trust online reviews or not, but I'm glad I did this one. It was perfect. Simply perfect. The laundry was crisp and clean, the dry cleaning fresh and pristine. More importantly, they completely repaired my clothes so that they fit me perfectly.
I've recently moved away, to W 33rd Street, but I still take my alterations all the way to Hattan. That's how good they are.
Pros: Quick, friendly and, more importantly, skilled.
