​BUYER BEWARE! Ban the tailor is a totally dishonest man & arrogant in his belief that his customers are stupid! He was to enlarge the waistband of a new pin-striped skirt, agreeing to use the fabric inside the waistband and then replacing it with a solid fabric. When I picked up the skirt I noticed that the waistband inside was untouched but that the fabric used to enlarge it was identical. Asked where he got the fabric, he replied "I had it". Puzzled, I asked again and got the same answer. Further, he charged me sales tax & when I protested, he insisted it was legal. When I got home I turned the skirt inside out to discover he had cut into the sides of an inverted pleat (leaving it hanging free of the waistband) leaving the fabric raw & likely to unravel. I checked & learned alterations are not taxed. I returned to the shop confronted him & all he said was "I'm sorry". When I said I would notify the NYC tax bureau he returned the tax. He ruined my skirt and cheats the city!!

Best Tailor in Manhattan, I do...

Best Tailor in Manhattan, I don't have a basis for comparison, having never been to any other tailors in this places. But I don't need to. Ban has always been nothing but friendly, providing high quality service to me ever since I bought my first suit when I was in high school. He works quickly, and does a very good job. He knows what he is doing (the most important thing) and does it with a smile on his face. P.S. He also gives great fashion advice in case you need it.

I've never had to take anythin...

I've never had to take anything to a tailor other than to get off the rack suits fitted.  I found some awesome jeans for supercheap because the zipper was broken. With a little research I discovered this place  

Ban couldn't have been more friendly or efficient in dealing with me. I showed him the broken zipper, he mulled over it for a second and let me know it was a little more difficult than normal jeans because there were three different colors of stitching he would have to use to completely replace the zipper assembly. come back in 2 weeks. Easy enough, and so I did and I have fully functioning, I will be going to Ban for any future alterations or repairs for sure.
