Sami's Alterations & Tailoring

TAILOR SERVING NEWPORT BEACH

Newport Beach Tailor and Alterations

If you live or work around Newport Beach and want a tailor you can genuinely trust, Sami's Tailoring is worth the short drive south. Sami Abujudeh and his son have spent more than 40 years fitting suits, dresses, and gowns for Orange County. Our shop sits in San Juan Capistrano, a straightforward 25 to 30 minute drive from the harbor.

SERVING NEWPORT BEACH

A tailor Newport Beach families return to

Newport Beach is built for looking the part. Between dinners at Fashion Island, weddings overlooking Newport Harbor, and easy weekends along the Balboa Peninsula and in Corona del Mar, a well-fitted wardrobe earns its keep here. We are honest with you, though. We are not on your block. Our doors are in San Juan Capistrano, and getting here is a bit of a drive rather than a quick walk down the street.

What keeps Newport Beach clients coming back is the work itself. Many of them happily make the trip because they would rather hand a favorite jacket or a wedding gown to someone with four decades of experience than gamble on whoever is closest. We treat every garment as if it were our own, quote fair and transparent pricing before we begin, and welcome walk-ins for both men and women, plus children's clothing too.

THE DRIVE DOWN

Getting here from Newport Beach

From most of Newport Beach, our shop is about 25 to 30 minutes away. The simplest route is the I-5 south, with the drive flowing easily once you are past the Irvine stretch. If you would rather hug the coast, Pacific Coast Highway through Laguna Beach and Dana Point is the scenic alternative, longer but hard to beat on a clear day.

We are at 32301 Camino Capistrano, Ste E, in San Juan Capistrano, with parking right at the door. Walk-ins are welcome during business hours, and for a larger job, such as a wedding party or a stack of suits, a quick call to (949) 493-0505 lets us set aside the time you need. Tap directions for turn-by-turn from wherever you are in Newport Beach.

WORTH THE TRIP

Why Newport Beach clients choose Sami's

Trust is the real reason people drive past closer options. Sami's is a family shop, run by Sami and his son, and the same hands that greet you are the ones doing the sewing. There is no rotating cast and no guesswork. After 40 years, the work speaks for itself, from a wedding gown that has to be flawless to a simple pair of trousers hemmed exactly right.

You also get straight answers. We tell you up front what an alteration will cost and when it will be ready, and we will be honest if a deadline is too tight. For Newport Beach clients juggling busy schedules near Fashion Island or heading out from the Balboa Peninsula, that reliability is what turns a one-time visit into a tailor they keep for years.
