These guys did a great job for a while, but then the last set of suits I brought there I really wasn't happy and could never get them right. I am not sure it was them or the suits (outlet quality). Other people I know have been to them recently and been very happy with extensive recutting of suit jackets.
I recently used
Allen Tailor and Cleaning

These guys were recommended by J Press and they did a good job on just very minimal alterations (sleeves, waist, cuffs.)
A cousin of mine who works at Barney's (and I have never shopped there) strongly recommends
BHAMBI Custom Tailors
*(212) 935-5379

I have never used them.
Over the past year, I have opted for buying suits at places with good in-house tailors. Paul Stuart, J. Press, Hugo Boss. I dropped 20 in the last year (and 40 in the prior year) and the shit I bought last year is beyond alterable.

Thanks, Icky. And dropping 60 pounds in 2 years? Damn. Did you go back to the rock star cocaine and nicotine diet?
