“Such an amazing shoppy shop shop to have in Astoria. They have hard to find stationery, baggus, a massive blind box collection, cute stickers and keychains. There is a lot packed in a small store!”
“The staff were really welcoming and helpful. The pieces are pre stitched and budget friendly. Lots of variety within their collection of jewelry and clothing. Will visit again :)”
“I couldn’t have asked for a better experience getting my wedding tuxedo made. I usually live in basketball shirts and shorts, so walking into a custom tailor shop was honestly a little overwhelming at first. But Onik and his team made the entire process incredibly simple, comfortable, and personable. What really stood out to me was how much they were willing and able to customize. If you could think of it, they could probably create it. I was able to choose from different fabrics, including lighter options that were perfect for my summer wedding, experiment with different styles, and even add custom images to the lining of my tuxedo to make it truly personal. Having different styles available to see and try on made it so much easier to figure out exactly what I wanted. Another huge plus was the convenience. Since they were local, I was able to stop in whenever I had questions, wanted to make adjustments, or simply wanted to take another look at the styling. They were always patient and helpful throughout the process. The final tuxedo came out exactly how I wanted, and it made the wedding day feel that much more special. If you’re someone who doesn’t know much about suits or custom tailoring, I especially recommend giving them a visit. Onik and his team will guide you through the entire process and make it feel effortless. 10/10 experience and I would absolutely recommend them to anyone looking for a custom suit or tuxedo! #knicksin5”
“Stopped by this store today after seeing it online. Absolutely adorable and will be going back! Not only was it cute, clean and had a variety, but it was fairly priced! The man working, who I assume was the owner, was very sweet and he was such a pleasure to talk with! Will certainly be going back soon!”
“The best pickles I’ve had in a long time!!! So crunchy, flavorful and the jars have a nice wide opening so it’s easy to wash after. Service was nice and owner took his time to show all the options”
“The most beautiful pieces and the best customer service. I’ve been shopping at Pashmina for years and they are the only shop I visit when I go to Jackson Heights. All the aunties that work there, and the owner herself, are the sweetest. They always are so patient and will take their time helping me pick the perfect outfit for every event, big or small. The absolute best!!!!”

“This is exactly what New York streetwear shops used to be before private equity discovered that young people enjoy sneakers. There was a time in New York when shops were part of a culture. They didn’t simply sell things to the community; they participated in it. Then somewhere along the way, everyone discovered branding, venture capital, and the tremendous financial possibilities of selling a sweatshirt for $240. Walking into this shop reminded me of what I miss about the heyday of New York street fashion. These guys didn’t open a store so they could become famous for owning a store. They opened it because they actually care about the culture surrounding it. This distinction may sound small, but in modern New York retail, it is practically revolutionary. Walk into most streetwear shops today and you’ll find the same five brands arranged slightly differently on concrete shelves. You know the brands. I know the brands. There is no reason to embarrass everyone by naming them. This place is different. There are products from local New York artists, independent New York brands, and people who are actually part of the community the store represents. There’s an excellent selection of Nikes, a huge assortment of spray cans, caps, markers, and practically anything else you might need to go out and create something. It feels less like somebody studied street culture and opened a store based on the research and more like the people behind the store were already part of the culture and simply built a home for it. Depending on where you live, getting here may be a bit of a trek. Go anyway. New Yorkers will travel 45 minutes for a croissant they saw on Instagram. You can certainly travel that far for something with actual character. And if you’re thinking about opening a shop in New York City, you should be required to make a pilgrimage here first. Walk around. Look carefully. Take notes. This is how you do it.”
“I have 10 years as a customer, and this is the ONLY uniform store that I would ever recommend or give business to. They have quality merchandise, they’ve never tried to oversell me on things that I didn’t need and have always been extremely reasonable in turnaround time and price. I’ve lived in Westchester, Queens, and Long Island— and no matter where I live or work, I would go out of my way to give them my business. I’ve gone to other uniform stores in a time crunch, and have regretted it every single time. This is a family owned business, they understand the needs of law-enforcement and are super compassionate. P&S holds a standard like no other!!”
“I was looking for the perfect shoes for my son’s birthday Photo shoot. Came here right away Tina and I Bonded, great Attitude and customer service, Also to the Staff who helped me thank you. To my fellow Guyanese all the best. Highly recommend.”

“I first learned about Dara Lamb and her atelier about 15 years ago from a journalist friend who arrived at a dinner wearing one of Dara's custom-made jackets. The fabric was heavenly and the fit so exquisite that I asked her who the designer was. I have been hooked on Dara's clothing ever since! The jackets, dresses and slacks that she and her crew of patternmakers and seamstresses have designed for me now make up much of my wardrobe. And whenever I wear Dara Lamb garments, I always receive compliments. I have had strangers walk up to me in restaurants and on the street asking me who designed my clothing! Dara's custom designs are timeless; pieces she made for me a dozen years ago still look as good as clothing she's made for me in the past year. I've worn her garments to work in a newsroom, to court when I covered trials, to social events, conferences, speaking engagements and to teach classes at a university. The fabrics she offers come from the finest Italian mills.Whether it takes one, two or three fittings, nothing will leave her atelier that doesn't fit you perfectly! There is nothing comparable in retail stores -- even at three times the price -- that will make you look so good!”

The selection is impressive, and there is always something interesting to discover while shopping. A great shopping destination on Jamaica Avenue for anyone looking for quality styles at budget-friendly prices. Highly recommended!”
