Great job! Will definitely go back.

I selected Bhambi's to alter a newly purchased Canali suit on the strength of CitySearch reviews. I wanted to find a top-notch tailor that I could also use for future custom suits/jackets.

First, they were extemely friendly. I have not gone to a custom shop before and was afraid that staff would either be pushy and/or condescending. My fears were unfounded.

Lal showed me the backroom where all suits are made. He showed me some of the fabrics he'd suggest for a (eventual) gray sportcoat. He obviously takes a lot of pride in the shop (I presume) he's built.

Harry took the time to ask me questions and get to know me a bit. Keep in mind - this was all on an alterations (not custom) job.

Sam took my measurements and returned the suit within 2 working days. All I can guess is that they all worked on Labor Day. It is a wonderful job and fits like it was made for me.

They all shook hands. They all made eye-contact.

I can say that the job cost more than I've paid for alterations but each "line item" alteration (e.g. hem, shoulders, waist, sleeves) was very reasonable on its own. It's just that they knew what needed to be done to make it look great - not just good.

I will be going back for custom pieces as soon as I'm able. I expect that Bhambi's is the type of place that will settle for nothing less than 100% delight from its clients; therefore, no risk in spending the hard-earned money for custom garments.

• Pros: Great job altering a suit, very friendly and passionate
• Cons: None

Simply the best in every way!

The whole staff is extremely friendly in addition to the quality of craftsmanship exhibited in their work. They have a great selection of Italian and British fabrics to start with and the patience to work with you in any sartorial details you desire. They use full canvas that hangs extremely well.

They can get fairly busy but they will always be up-front to when and how long it would take to finish alterations or custom products.

The price equate the quality but if you have had any item of clothin ruined before, you know doing the job right the first time is worth the paying a little bit more.

• Pros: Customer service...which is often forgotten in a place like NYC
• Cons: N/A

The B in Bhamb's should stand for best

My friend recommended Bhambi?s when I asked where I should get a suit made. After I had my first fitting I knew why he did not recommend any other place.

• Pros: Bhambi's has a very large selection of amazing fabrics
• Cons: none
