I’ve come here a couple of times and every time I was satisfied with my cut. Nadya would take her time and all was well. Today I allowed the older gentleman to attempt to cut my hair. Let’s just say it did not turn out so well. During the cut he offered to clean up my beard which I kindly turned down. I assume this is where things went sour because he began to rush through my cut. As two more customers came in his pace only increased. Having been used to the attention to detail that Nadya would pay I clearly noticed the difference. Once he was done I paid and even gave him a decent tip. Upon returning to the office someone brought to my attention how uneven the cut was and how a lock of hair above my beard had been left uncut. I returned to get it fixed and the gentleman mentions that he didn’t cut it because I didn’t want my beard cut and therefore did not even pay attention to the area. As I leave I hear him mutter “this guy” as if it was my fault. I definitely will not be returning to this barber shop and recommend that if you MUST go, only go to see Nadya. Unfortunately the pictures does not include the lock of uncut hair but just the final results of how messy and uneven it came out.

Always great. Simple efficient and pleasant

Ilya is an old school barber, gives good haircuts for a good price for Manhattan.

Great place. Very friendly. Great prices.Update: Went back for the second time today. I couldnt be happier. This place is a hidden gem in the neighborhood. As others have said, they do good work, at a great price and very quickly. They will work with you and spend as much time as it takes, but they know what theyre doing so it really doesnt take all that long. This place is really awesome. I hate getting my hair cut. I always wait too long. I get anxious about it. But I feel right at home here. Very genuine old school vibe. Businesses like this are becoming harder and harder to find. I wont get my haircut anywhere else.

Bro!! This man knows what is good. The haircuts are bless the prices are bless. Lived downtown my whole life, by far the best place.

Two of the friendliest people Ive met in years! Got a terrific haircut, had a wonderful conversation, and it was delightful. At a reasonable price.

This is an awesome traditional barber shop. Great cut! Great price!

Been getting my cuts here for a few years now. Leo is great at what he does and the staff is always welcoming and friendly. Prices are reasonable. My only con is that he doesnt really clean up my neck and ears after a cut and i always have a ton of hair left on me after hes done. Makes a kind of uncomfortable trip home but its not really a deal breaker for me.

Excellent haircut for a great price. Leo made me feel as comfortable sitting in his chair as I do in my favorite barbershop back home in New Orleans; and feeling just as confident getting out of it after a skillful cut. I appreciate the hospitality and hope to enjoy it again in the future.

Great hair cut at a great price from a friendly barber. I dont know many old school type barber shops left like this one. Leo and his staff are great.

Walked in awesome energy, epic shave, cut and general clean up. Zero irritation from clean up shave first time ever so super happy with results.

Leo is a great barber and accommodated me quickly. He listened to my few request and I’m happy I trusted him with my hair. Super affordable and friendly vibe too.

Great place for a quick and affordable cut. Friendly staff, older gent who looked after me.

Great cut for $20. Staff is super friendly too.

Very friendly and attentive. Excellent haircut for a fair price. I will be coming back!

This place is great! $15 for a solid buzz, and I has a crazy amount of hair to cut. The environment is extremely friendly. This will be my new barber as long as I work in SoHo.

Fabulous hair cut, great price, prompt service from a super friendly barber. Couldnt recommend more highly.

This is literally the first review that I have have bothered to actually write, because yes Ilyas Baber Shop is that good. Great overall: quality, price, service, speed...Seriously, just go check it out for yourself and tell me if I am wrong.

Great barber- shop. The Albanian barber would give me great cuts. He is now gone. I want to know what shop hes working for now. If anyone knows where he went, please let me know. johnshay001 @ gmail dot comThanks!

First time using a barber for a beard and mustache trim, did great work. Friendly and respectfully priced. Will go back next time in NYC!

The barber is Uzbekistan and probably gay because he was smiling in my face when cutting my hair.

Great cut always. Best price around. Super friendly!

Great hair cut! Fair price and super quick. Thanks Leo.

No wait, good price, very quick and responsive to what I asked for

Great barber. Served me on the spot. Very tidy beard trim for a very reasonable $8. In and out in 10 mins. Boom.

Nice, fast, cheap. Lina did a great job on my son.

Two chairs. No nonsense just good, well-priced haircuts.

Excellent barber shop!Highly recommended.

Ive been seeing Leo for about 25 years. I now commute from Philadelphia for a great cut.

Very friendly, excellent quality of work. Fast and reasonably priced (I paid $15).

An absolute gem. Ilya is an exceptional barber who is professional and polite with a price that cant be beat in the neighborhood.

Ive been getting my hair cut by Leo for years. Always does a great job and very reasonably priced.

Ilya is excellent, a true neighborhood barber shop.

As the other reviewers have written. The service is friendly, the haircut is good and the price is great.

Great Barber shop, friendly service and low prices.
