SFers,

Sadly, it appears that my mainstay tailor, Diaz Brothers, has gone kaput. They haven't closed shop, but the recent yelp reviews have been dismal:

I recently picked up a few Borellis, and need to find someone I can trust. Usually, I would trial a tailor with something cheaper first, but I've been cutting back on unnecessary purchases this year.

For those of you in San Francisco or Berkeley, who do trust to alter your shirts (sides and sleeves)? I've been to a wide array of tailors over the years (Gorges, Diaz, etc.) and with the exception of the Diaz brothers, I've been dissapointed every time.

Thanks,
DZ
