Dante Zeller or JoS A. Banks Locations (if you used them)

I know I asked a similar question to this in the past, but now that we're close to picking the tuxes (probably this weekend), I'm asking again.

If you used Dante Zeller or JoS A. Banks for your tuxes (already married or in another wedding), what location did you use, and would you suggest them? Why or why not?

I'm really only looking for input from people who have actually used the tuxes/stores already, and not just people who are going to use them. 

I know there are plenty of locations to choose from, and we don't personally mind traveling a bit further if one particular store has a better rep than another.

P.S. - we are definitely going to use one of these places, so not looking for suggestions on different stores.

TIA!

    We are using Dante Zeller. FI used them a few years ago for his cousin's wedding, and surprisngly the same old man still works there - and he is really on top of things and has been pleasant to work with. We are using the Freehold location.

    We used Dante out of Hazlet. Mario I think is his name there, and he was amazing. He's a little cooky, but we had some issues with the guys tuxes (some were way too big, some small etc) and he went to the warehouse himself the next day and got the right sizes and sewed them himself. He did this in the peak of prom season last year. While it was stressful 2 days before my wedding not having my DH have a tux that fit, I was assured that everything would be fine and "not to worry my pretty little heart" as he put it haha. Day before they picked the new tuxes up and everyone's fit perfectly, no problem!

    We placed our original order at the DZ at the Willowbrook Mall, the girl there was very helpful and attentive to us, she also works at the Verona store. We ultimately picked up most of the tuxes at the Verona location and returned them there also (since it was down the block from our venue and we all stayed over) 

    A couple of the groomsmen also used the location in Bridgewater and one used the one in Freehold. We didn't have any issues at any of the locations and we used several! My Dad and my brother got theirs in LI and didn't have any issues either. 

    Overall we were happy with the customer service at all the locations and also liked the selection of attire here the best.... we did not have good experiences at MW

    Although we are willing to travel, does anybody have experience with any locations in the Union County vicinity? A few of the groomsmen are in that area.

    We used JoS A. Banks in Bridgewater. Anthony (store manager) was more than accomodating and helpful. FI actually needs to have several things downsized and it's been a very easy and painless process.

    Thanks, but you haven't actually "used" them yet for your wedding.
    I'm looking for review from people after the fact.
