Comment: Have been a client of Ablitts for over 30 years and have always been very pleased with the way they treat, mend, and clean my clothing, Im addition to their customer service. This is the reason I entrusted the cleaning of my wedding gown to them in October of 2022 I could not be more pleased. My wedding was outside, and like others who have held outside weddings, the hem of my dress and veil was full of dirt, straw, and grass by the end of the evening. Ablitts did an extraordinary cleaning job of both my veil and dress and helping me understand the decision in whether to just have it cleaned and placed on a hanger or cleaned and preserved in a box. When Margarita, Ablitts speciality item manager, invited me to preview my dress before it was boxed up she took the time to explain the cleaning process and discussed the dust in the dress fibers not visible to the eye, that also was removed during their cleaning process. She also took the time to explain the preservation process, how it could still age over time, and how to handle the dress should I desire to unbox it. It was quite an interesting education for me and it was also fun to see the passion Margarita has for her job and her interest in ensuring that all of Ablitts speciality cleaned items such as wedding dresses, are handled with great care by those with professional knowledge. She even explained how delicate fabrics such as those used in quality veils and dresses may break and have tiny holes after outside weddings as the particles in the ground will break down the delicate fabric and the glass crystals in veil edging dragged across the ground can also cause damage. So ladies, ensure you bustle up your dresses and take your veils off after outside wedding ceremonies if you want to help ensure the integrity of your gowns.

Comment: I laundered a shirt and pants with wine stains with Ablitts. After 2 attempts the wine stains came out but regretfully the pants had a 2 permanent bleached stains. Having said that, I contacted the store and they courteously and promptly helped me and I got a refund for the item. Mistakes can happen, its how you handle them that counts. They were above and beyond here. Thanks!

Comment: Ive been using Ablitts for years. They are the best dry cleaners in Santa Barbara. I once left a gold ring in the pocket of my blazer, I thought I had lost it. To my surprise, when I received my blazer back from Ablitts, they had attached my ring in separate little bag. Ablitts is the best and I highly recommend them.

Comment: Mark has been good at customer recognition. Very important to me. I dont know the new ladies well yet but the other ones like Victoria. were good. I have been happy with the quality of cleaning, but my wife recently sent in only the top to a top and bottom skirt/blouse set made of satin or silk like material when it was returned the blouse was dull and looked like it had a residue on it.tim

Comment: As a Santa Barbara Native for over 30 years, Ablitts Fine Cleaners has always been synonymous with Great Dry Cleaning. Ablitts is the only dry cleaners I trust. I have expensive slip covers and I put them in the care of Ablitts and Sasha Ablitt. I appreciate her willingness and availability to discuss cleaning plans and options. She is thorough, knowledgeable and friendly. My covers needed special attention and Sasha and Ablitts went above and beyond to make sure they were cleaned safely and correctly. All my dry cleaning items are returned in impeccable condition. I appreciate their dedication to details, with my dry cleaning, packaged with careful attention. I trust Ablitts with ALL my dry cleaning needs. I pay for their high quality of care and experience. How fortunate we are to have such a high quality, dedicated dry cleaning company in Santa Barbara.

Comment: We use Ablitts at work to clean our hand towels (rather than the bathroom having paper towels to dry hands, we have wash cloth size hand towels). It is very convenient having them pick up/ drop off the towels. My husband I take our personal dry cleaning there too and they always do a great job and have friendly staff!

Comment: We are loyal customers of Ablitts because of their impeccable customer service, and the convenience of those services that they provide. They take such care in their service of the items we take to them. We also have used them for their preservation services for a wedding gown and our childrens baptismal outfits. We know that those special heirloom garments are in prime condition and will stay that way for years to come.

Comment: I took an expensive silk dress in to be cleaned and hemmed. I was worried because it was an old dress and thought it might not make it through the cleaning. But Ablitts handled it beautifully and now my dress feels sturdier than ever. Plus I feel comfortable bringing it back for a cleaning. I would definitely recommend bringing your nice clothes here for a touch up!

Comment: I had a good experience with Ablitts for many years until they pretty much ruined all of my winter scarves. That being said, the good news is that they stepped up to the plate and reimbursed me without too much conversation. So in the spirit that anyone can make a mistake, I will give them 4 stars for overall good performance.

Comment: I always use Ablitts for my dry cleaning needs. Their turn around times are always very quick and Ive never had any issues. Its also a bonus that they take the SB Axxess card. The last gentleman that helped me even added the discount to my account so I dont have to show my card everytime I go in.Ablitts has an arrangement with my office to pickup and drop off my clothes, which is a great service, but I live close by so I just take my garments in when I need to. Love that they give out bags to keep my dirty clothes in between trips!

Comment: Ablitts consistently provides excellent cleaning services - I take all of my work attire to them on a weekly basis. They have done a fantastic job cleaning all types of garments for me - everything from pants to shirts to ties. Also - they did a wonderful job with a comforter that my roommate spilled on back in my IV days, which was really helpful in order to avoid buying a new one.The staff at Ablitts is always very personable and fun to chat with - most of them remember you by name and they always greet you with a smile! Their awesome staff assures expedience and a truly enjoyable experience each time you come in, which is a nice addition to their great cleaning services. Offers of FREE expedited services, and FREE delivery too?! What a concept! I always recommend Ablitts - the best cleaners in town.

Comment: After we arrived in SB from NYC, finding a reliable dry cleaner was really important. Ablitts quality is good (no perc smell) and the free delivery service is a godsend. Helped us find reputable rug cleaners, furniture cleaners, etc. as well. Probably not the cheapest in town, but sometimes trying to save 50 cents a shirt isnt worth the trouble.

Comment: Ablitts FIne Cleaners is the best in town. The team steamed my wedding dress and dropped it off on the day of my wedding at my hotel room where I was getting ready. It was perfection, so easy and perfect! I know receive their delivery at my workplace and I love it! They pick up and drop off right to work, and they will always call me with any questions or concerns. They really care about their customers, and my garments always look perfect. Cant imagine working with another cleaner!

Comment: They cleaned an antique Spanish shawl for me. Heavy and long silk knotted fringe, came back perfect!
