The woman who works here is a miracle worker! She altered a bridesmaid's dress for me, made it fit perfectly, and didn't even blink when I said I needed it done in less than two weeks. I delivered a wrinkled ill-fitting sack and she gave me back a sleek, pressed, fitted gown. I would trust her with any garment--she is very skilled!

I came in with a last minute quick turnaround tailoring job: fixing a very poor job done by a different tailor and adding a pocket to a beloved jean jacket. Not only did they do an excellent job in <24 hours, the woman at the desk came in a little early the next morning because I told her I was going to be running for a train after pickup and she wanted to make sure she was there to receive me. Incredible service really going the extra mile for a brand new customer - I wish I lived nearby as I’d bring everything here!

Somerville Cleaners & Tailor saved my wedding dress! After I had a bad experience at a different wedding dress tailor, I took my dress to Thuvan hoping for a miracle. She was so kind, took the time to understand what I wanted fixed, and even stayed after hours to turn it around the same day so I wasn’t stressed. And she charged me a fraction of the price of what the other wedding dress tailor charged me. I can’t recommend them enough for all your tailoring needs!

Would recommend, the person who helped me was very friendly. (I think her name was Van.) Dry cleaning was done fast and they got a huge stain out of my wife's top/blouse. Reasonably priced.

I use Somerville Dry Cleaners & Tailor for laundry (mostly shirts) and occasionally for dry cleaning. They do good work and the staff is always super friendly.

5 stars for their tailoring! 2.5 stars for drycleaning. The tailoring is great. I get all my jeans and fancy dresses done here; they nail it every time. Drycleaning: I have brought things here to be drycleaned and when I get them back it seems as if they've only been pressed, not cleaned. Not every time, but enough times that I don't bother anymore, and just bring my stuff to Skyline now. I'm rounding up my average because of the very nice woman who works the counter. Always nice to see her. And she loves dogs :)

Average, maybe a tad disappointing. I meant to go to Skyline Dry Cleaners which is down the street and has consistent 5-star reviews but ended up here accidentally. I took my favorite, light-colored silk skirt here for a cleaning; there were about 5 stains on it. I pointed them out to the guy who marked them in bright red tape. He said he'd fix them and I could get the skirt 5 days later... kind of a long wait, but fine. Then when I pick it up, the stains are still there, every single one of them! I point them out to the guy and he says he'll re-do it, and I can get the skirt 5 days later. A- for re-do but ugh for not doing it right the 1st time. Yesterday I picked up the skirt and the woman working there pointed out that 3 of the stains were removed but two were too tough and she was concerned about ruining the silk for the sake of getting them out. Ok that's fine too, I'd rather have very faint stains than holes in my skirt. But the issue is that the skirt is not pressed well! There are all these little wrinkles down at the hem... seriously? If i wanted a wrinkled skirt I would iron the thing myself. Not wanting to wait another 5 days for it, I paid my $6 and got out of there. Next time I'll make sure to actually end up at Skyline...

Situation: It is Sunday night. I have an interview Tuesday morning, a trip out West on Wednesday, two more interviews Thursday, and one final one on Friday. I haven't looked at my interview clothes in years. Shocker: They don't look that good. Especially the shirts. Solution: Somerville Cleaners and Tailoring: literally down the street from me (hey I just moved - feel free to stalk my old address). I call ahead and ask if they can clean and press my shirts. They quoted me some price. (maybe $6 each?). I could pick them up by Monday evening. I walked down the street and dropped them off. The lady looks at them and quickly tells me they don't need to be cleaned. I point out a yellow spot or two on my otherwise brilliantly white shirt. She just tells me not to worry about it. I ask when she opens on Tuesday morning in case I'm stuck at work late on Monday - and she just tells me to call ahead and she'll wait for me on Monday night. I stop by Monday night (was able to get out of work on time) - she grabs me my shirts - they look great - and charges me $6 for the whole bundle (since she only had to press them, not clean them). Yellow spots are gone. This is magic. So let's recap: Super nice, accommodating service. Not looking to sell services you don't need. Ability to work magic. Five stars.

Quite inexpensive, especially compared to some of the other competing dry cleaners in the area. Not the most thorough at the actual cleaning, though: more times than not at least two articles of clothing I send to be cleaned come back not quite clean. They are pretty quick, and if you need your clothes faster than the original day quoted, they are very accommodating.
