Um, no. Got a gift certificate, so I had some slacks made. I knew something was up from the first visit -- very few measurements taken, and they were taken while I was fully clothed. This is made to measure, not custom. Expensive for what it is, and the workmanship is just fair. I'll wear these slacks, of course, but I would not patronize this place again. Other than the belt loops (integrated into the waistband, not just sewn on), I'd get just as good for a lot cheaper off the rack at, say, Brooks Brothers.

You Have to Look Good to Feel Good! Ed, Darren and Mr. DeSumma have been tailoring my business and dress clothes for a decade to rave reviews from my customers, co-workers, family and friends. As a print professional for over 30 years, I need to look good to feel good when in front of prospects and clients. Ernesto's satisfies that requirement with a great selection of fabrics and styles, perfect tailoring and at a great value. When the directors of advertising and marketing at Bloomingdales and Saks 5th Ave make positive co... read more

The Best I have gone to Ernesto's for shirts for years and the selection and quality are absolutely phenominal. I recently hired them to make a custom suit for my wedding and it came out perfectly. The attention to detail and skill used to tailor the suit was obvious and I was completely satisfied. Guest after guest specifically complimented me on the suit and asked where it came from. I will continue to buy from Ernesto's and give them my strongest recommendation. A wonderful, family-run business.

Ernesto's is the best Everything was perfect from the initial contact through the first fitting to the pick up. Ed was the consumate pro and the fit and craftsmanship were second to none. I went for my wedding suit and could not be happier. This is not something I do on a regular basis and I was made to feel as welcome as an old friend.

Top Notch Magnificent! I've been ussing Ernesto's for over 10 years now and have never been disappointed. Their attention to detail is translated to the final product. I, honestly, never go anywhere in a Ernesto suit that someone doesn't comment "Nice Suit!. Professional and understanding, Ed DeSumma is a pleasure to work with. You will not be disappointed.

First Class I have been a customer for over 5 years. I have purchased shirts, slacks, sports coats and suits. The clothing is first class. I receive many compliments for the fit and fabrics. Once I started buying my clothes from Ernesto, i have not shopped for dress clothes in a department or mens store since. There is no comparison. The service, fit and selection of fabrics are all outstanding. Darren and Edward do it right. They have great taste and have helped me to look my best. They stand behind their product should som... read more

Always a perfect fit with Ernesto's I've been a satisfied customer for over 12 years. Ed and family work with you until everyone is perfectly satisfied. They'll even do custom touches and special requests like unusual linings or contrasting buttonhole thread. Have a favorite designer suit? They can duplicate it in fabrics from their extensive collection. Their shirts are beautiful, too. I'm ready for a new sport coat and I'm looking forward to the experience. Always a great value, especially when the suit or jacket becomes y... read more
