    A got lucky many times with last minute calls for my dog grooming, they are always kind and follow instructions for the style of the haircut. Our dog is always very happy to go there and she is well taken care and you can tell by her tail wiggling all the times when we walk by their place

    Amazing job on my cat, Teddy. He hated the old groomer that I used to take him to in soho- very happy we made the change. He was a totally different cat (lion) coming home- very sweet and relaxed compared to his old demeanor with the past groomer. Highly recommended.

    Always happy to take my dog here! They are pricey but they are super flexible with scheduling and my pup always seems happy and relaxed when I pick her up so I think it’s worth it.

    Fantastic spot. They make our puppy boy Elmer look extra nice. Great staff. Great communication and fair prices.

    Had a great experience at A Cut Above. We were able to get an appointment very quickly, our Bernedoodle was ready within a reasonable time and the cut was very well done. They even modified the cut right there when I asked for a change.

    Amazing service. Good treatment. They were friendly and helpful with the length of cut I wanted on my dog. Percy looks good and ready for the hot summer weather.

    I’ve been taking my two dogs to A CUT ABOVE for over a year now! I moved from NJ and, as they both grow long hair, desperately needed a good groomer at a reasonable price, that was easy to get appointments with. I stopped people on the streets of the Upper West side, whose pups looked awesome 😎. 9 times out of 10, the groomer was A CUT ABOVE, 69th off Broadway ! The stylists are wonderful and really, can give the dog what you ask for; be specific ! One of my dogs doesn’t need a moustache, beard, side burns etc! He likes a clean face ! I ONLY had to ask ! My other dog likes a lions mane, to offset his lovable chunky tum! The representatives at the FRONT DESK are fantastic! Just super all around!Thank you folks ! Happy Holidays

    They treated Spike well and treated his ditsy Aunt with kindness. When we had to make a last minute change to his appointment they were very accommodating. The only problem I have is that the price is too high for us to go more than once a year. But our old man came out looking like a young pup with a snazzy new haircut and sleeping so good I wanted to sniff him like a dog. He came out wagging his tail and was 😁.

    We’ve tried all of the places in the neighborhood. This one is the best. They are organized, friendly, responsive, and professional.

  • Review 10 (2023-02-14 - Rating: 5)

    I have brought many dogs here over the years and I am so glad that I did and do. They do an amazing job with my mini poodle. Poodles have hair and need a bit of extra love and care. My girl Vespa is treated well and looks and feels great after her grooming. The groomer listens and grooms her in all the different styles I have tried. He also gives suggestions I appreciate. The staff and owner are always kind and professional.

    Hello there, first time customer, Just want to share my experience to anybody who Is looking for dog grooming. I just wanna say This is THE BEST PLACE TO BE. I was Super nervous since the first haircut, my boy was getting. A cut above assured me that everything was going to be OK and that he was in good hands and that they’re gonna take really good care of him and made sure he comes out beautiful and that’s exactly what they did. Their services were amazing, and my boy has never looked more beautiful. Thank you so much for your services ! We will be back very soon. !!

    Brought my old English Cocker Spaniel , as a stop gap, as usual groomer gone for the week. They couldn’t have been nicer, especially Max at the front desk. Dropped Fiona off at 12 noon, she was ready at 3:15pm. She was matted and in desperate need of grooming. The groomer did an amazing job and I was told , she fell fast asleep afterwards. Cannot say enough good things about all whom work at this establishment. Couldn’t be happier

  • Review 13 (2022-04-07 - Rating: 5)

    Our King Charles Cavalier had her best ever grooming experience here. The groomer was outstanding. He asked for photos to make sure her cut was what I wanted. He sat down with me after to discuss what they had done and that she might be developing an ear infection. The place was open and transparent. This was the best grooming experience we have ever had. Cant recommend them high enough.

    Very comforting to be around people who love ur pet and want them to look there best in life groomers are highly skilled and attentive tu o your specific grooming concerns

  • Review 15 (2021-09-02 - Rating: 5)

    Amazing Experience!! We took our puppy who needed a haircut badly (other groomers said they had to shave him). Ming listened to our wishes and gave us exactly what we wanted. They were able to give him a GORGEOUS grooming and were able to get out knots and matting. If you are looking for a pleasant, professional, trustworthy place to groom your pet this is it!!

  • Review 16 (2023-12-15 - Rating: 5)

    A Cut Above on West 69th Street always give my husky, Kata a great bath and brush out. Kata sheds like hell at least twice per year and at this groomer shes looked and smelt perfect afterward.

  • Review 17 (2023-01-27 - Rating: 5)

    Really pleased, got our Goldendoodle ~60lbs groomed for the first time here. Max was the best - provided a picture of what we were aiming for and the results were great. Best cut thus far on UWS.

  • Review 18 (2020-07-07 - Rating: 5)

    Easily the best experience I’ve had with a barber in life. From the accessibility to his calendar to his responsiveness via text, the process to book an appointment was seamless. Not to mention, I traveled three hours to get to him; certainly wasn’t a mistake.The cut was beyond my expectations and the level of professionalism shocked me. Eric is clearly devoted to his business as much as he is to his craft. Great across the board.

  • Review 19 (2021-08-16 - Rating: 5)

    Excellent Staff. I have been coming here for over 2 years (Buddha and Harley) Everyone is always professional and friendly. Always super accommodating. A true UWS Gem. They do fantastic work and the owner and staff truly care about their human and dog clientele. I will be back in 2-3 months.

  • Review 20 (2019-06-21 - Rating: 5)

    Best Pet groomer in NYC! Kyle, the lead groomer is excellent, and knows his specialty breed cuts. Ming, the Owner, is a fantastic woman and dog lover. She runs a great business. Diana, the front desk mgr is also a great asset to the business, easy to communicate with and goes out of her way to be friendly and helpful. Jasper loves this place and the people and dogs here!

  • Review 21 (2021-04-04 - Rating: 5)

    Best haircut my dog has ever had! Perfect PWD retriever cut. A cut above is responsive, called me back on a day when closed, and the owner (?) expressed patience, kindness, and great listening.Affordable for the UWS. Totally recommend.

  • Review 22 (2022-04-03 - Rating: 4)

    I like that its transparent and we can see them through the big glass windows. Also very reasonably priced. I wish the butt hair on my corgi was cut a tad shorter but good overall. 4.5 stars if I could have given it more granularity.

  • Review 23 (2018-01-17 - Rating: 5)

    Such nice people work here. The owner is a sweet lady that really cares. And the staff are all very diligent. I dropped off my dog after the storm which left him with matted hair from outerwear. These guys did an amazing job keeping his hair a normal length (not shaved down) and super cute. Thank you!!

  • Review 24 (2021-09-28 - Rating: 5)

    Ghost first experience, I was really happy to see how he was taking care off. Mig and staff were excellent. Love that fact that Ming and staff greet you and listen to the instructions I have provided. This was my first time at cut above I highly recommend it to anyone that wants excellent service. Price was reasonable! Completely satisfied..

  • Review 25 (2022-03-30 - Rating: 5)

    Very very happy with the service and the people! My puppy is not easy and somehow they worked him great although handstripping is so hard and such a long process! He also looks great! Will 100% be back.

  • Review 26 (2021-12-17 - Rating: 5)

    My female Lhaso used to get groomed when she was here, so I know the work. I decided to take my Male. All I can is - the grooming is the BEST!!! This was my 1st time @ the 83 location as a pose to 69th. They never disappoint

  • Review 27 (2016-04-04 - Rating: 5)

    A cut above is THE BEST! They take the best care of Sadie! It is always super clean and I love the glass between you and your pet- it allows you to see exactly what is happening- so you know your pet is being loved and in a good orderly surrounding! 5 star service! And...my baby runs down 69th to get there!Robin

  • Review 28 (2024-03-16 - Rating: 4)

    Go to spot for haircuts and bath. Appreciate that they are always flexible and able to schedule on short notice. But quality is sometimes inconsistent.

  • Review 29 (2024-03-19 - Rating: 5)

    Loved the experience at the salon. My scottie was handstripped perfectly. If you’re looking for handstripping, this is the place to go!

  • Review 30 (2020-09-26 - Rating: 5)

    A cut above really helped me out with my dog Logan, he was in a bad situation and ended up with me. A cut above took him in and I’d also like to especially shout out Diana who was so kind they also gave him an extra harness and leash to get rid of the dirty old one he showed up to me with. Thank you a cut above and Diana we can’t wait to come back.

    Really good and attentive staff. Thank you!

  • Review 54 (2022-06-06 - Rating: 5)

    I have taken my Westie here a few times and this is by far the best cut he has ever received. He looks like a pet celebrity after he leaves this place and everyone always comments on how gorgeous he looks. This place is not cheap, but you are getting a top notch cut. Will be making the trek from BK to come back because it’s so worth it.

  • Review 57 (2017-08-06 - Rating: 5)

    This was Rags first visit and we will definitely return. Shes an older, mixed breed Tibetan with lots of little age bumps to avoid. The staff member really paid attention to how I wanted her trimmed and gave her an excellent cut. I like the relaxed atmosphere here with the dogs milling around rather than in cages, and being able to see them on the tables. Im also impressed that they insist on a vaccination certificate, I travel a lot and this is not the case everywhere. Definitely recommend them.

  • Review 58 (2020-06-09 - Rating: 5)

    Our 2 toy poodles were groomed at Cut Above today.My husband said they had the best hair cut ever! I was satisfied and very happy because I did not hear any complaint about them being difficult. I had warned the staff that both tends to bite

    Best grooming salon in New York City. Ming and her staff were very kind and do a careful beautiful job.The owner, Ming, and the groomers are very kind, courteous, and do a great job. This is a recommended grooming salon in Manhattan.
