Not sure if it's the manager or owner but she was extremely rude, and not so well-trained. I came in right when the store opened asking for gel removal and she handed me a cotton ball with acetone and basically told me to leave. I came back later after my brunch when I saw more people inside and asked to get my gel removed. She came over and said I had asked for regular polish removal earlier. I said "I didn't but do you have anyone who can take off gel nails?". She then KEPTTTT coming over to say how I said regular nails earlier. And??? We are done with what happened earlier and you mishearing me. Also $15 for gel removal is so expensive. read more

They did a great job on my pedicure and were kind. I will definitely be back! Will get a manicure next

Definitely the worst nails I've ever had done. People were nice and didn't rush. Place is cute. However, I came in with long almond shaped nails and after asking to make them "just a little bit shorter", I left with nubs of different lengths and different shapes, despite giving feedback on how I'd like her to change the shape (to the shape I originally had) 3 times. Also, the colors in the book do not match the polish at all. Picture of French tip included to show the shape I had when I first came in, just longer. I wanted the length to be back to how it was in this photo. read more

Mary was my nail technician and she did an absolutely fantastic job! I was a walk in and they were able to do both a gel manicure and a regular polish pedicure! I asked her if she could do a design I found online and without hesitation she said yes. Everyone who works there is super hospitable and friendly. After my pedicure Mary helped me put on my shoes and helped me put on my bag just the best service I have ever gotten! Could not recommend more! I love my nails, and Azula does too! Thank you Mary and Alberta Nails Spa! Do note that while they take walk ins, the morning is the best time to go. Also, they prefer cash. read more

They are easy to call for appointments (which I recommend because they're always booked and busy), they're friendly, and they don't mind giddy tweens getting their special treat nails. I was even able to get a pedicure while doing homework. It's clean, open with high ceilings and they're next to a Boba tea spot which adds to the al read more

We had 2 pedicures. One of us had a gel pedicure. They offer a complimentary drink, which is nice. The ladies are nice enough but the work was mid. Not bad, but not great. The polish was thick and left bumps and the finish work was shoddy. Spent $100 bucks and have had much cleaner results elsewhere. Although they are the closest salon to my home I will not be back. read more

Well, if you have beautiful nail beds and naturally nice nails this is probably a fine place to go and get a manicure. I had the dip w/extentions put on and my god-aweful nails look even worse then they did before I went in. The person who worked on my nails could have made an effort to shape the layers in a way that made up for my terrible shaped nails, but in the end, I felt like I was on an assembly line and I got the usual treatment. If you hope to come out with better looking nails that when you walked in... and don't have beautiful nails to begin with - I'd go somewhere else. read more

I was treated very rudely. I was sent to the new employee who had only been working for a couple of months. He did not exfoliate my feet and rushed through my pedicure leaving my feet feeling rough and my toenails feeling jagged. When I voiced my concern, he told me that I had to pay for a callous removal. His "massage" felt more like he simply lotioned my calves and pulled on two of my toes. My manicure was not much better. The manicurist failed to massage my hands, instead she beer licked her fingers with mine and then wiggled my hand. She neglected to lotion my hands and when I brought attention to the fact, she walked away. The manager gave me some lotion and then said to me in a curt tone: You're done" while I was rubbing the lotion in. The gel manicure started to peel off 7 days later- while I was on vacation and nt doing any manual labor. read more

My ladies hooked me up with spiderweb nails for Halloween! Always the best thank youuuu!!

I recently got a pedicure here and it was a lovely experience. The salon seemed very clean, and all the employees were welcoming and nice.

This place is a real real gem. I had to reschedule 3 times in the same day and they were super helpful and nice on the phone. Happy to change my appointment time with no issues. The salon itself is clean, pretty, and classy. It doesn't have any weird smells or gross corners. My nail tech was fast but good, and she did the exact design I want even though it was a little annoying ( I wanted 4 different but very similar car eye colors ) . She told me the pricing before we began so no issues, pricing is fair for the great quality nails and service! Finally, this place would have been 5 starts without this, but extra love for the genuinely good people that work there. I was stuck in the snow after my appointment, they all came running to help, and got me out! Truly wonderful place and people. read more

Been looking for a good nail salon since we moved here and we found our place! The staff at Alberta Nails Spa are wonderful! Mary is the absolute best! First time into the salon both mine and daughter's nails lasted over 3 weeks. Second time here I came in with a broken leg and they took such gentle care of me during my mani-pedi you would have thought it was being given by my mom! My nails look great too! Kudos ladies, you've got regulars! read more

Beautiful, bright and airy salon! I had a callus removal pedicure and they did a wonderful job. Long massage, thoughtful cleaning and callous treatment plus the hot stones at the end were really nice and relaxing. They are very clean and covid-aware it was a very comfortable experience and my toes are now cute and tidy and ready for sandals, it feels GREAT :) read more

Great attention to detail and service selection. Always met with kindness and leave with clean work and soft skin.

Love this place for pedicures! I've made appointments and walked in. $35 for basic pedicure includes hot stone!

I wasn't so much in the market for a manicure as a hand massage, my hands have really sore and tired lately the manicure was just the icing on the cake! I have never been here before and have been hesitant to get my nails done again with COVID (it's been almost a year) but the reviews for this place were great so thought I would give it a shot. First, with regards to COVID, they now require appointments. When you arrive they take your temp and have you sign a health document attesting to the fact that you are symptom free and tracing protocols etc. They also have you sanitize your hands before starting. The salon is very clean. They have acrylic barriers between you and the technician so think of it like getting your nails done at the bank counter through the slot. Also I went on a Monday at 11 so there was nobody else there almost the whole time I was. Music is nondescript and not to loud...I appreciate this as I have been places with music that is to loud and to taste specific, their music was just like white noise in a good way. I got the Center Manicure (not gel), you get a hot wax treatment and a bomb hand and arm massage. The manicure was done really well and in fact it's now a week later and still in pretty good shape (considering I do a lot of projects with my hands). The technician was great, very friendly, quiet (I appreciate the quiet) and soooo good at what she does. The hand massage was wonderful (I have a little bit of arthritis so my hands get stiff and sore). I wish I got her name :(. I will definitely be going back! read more

EDIT: I changed my 5 star review to a 1 star review, I would give it less if I could. Had a full dip set Wednesday By Thursday 2 had broke and broke my nail underneath with it Go back to have the two fixed They tell me they will redo the set if I have time I schedule an appt for Saturday at 1:15 2 more break in the meantime and one is extremely painful By 2:06 they still weren't done taking off the last set When they finish they tell me I can go home I let them know my understanding was that they would replace the set 2 technicians agreed the integrity of the nail was weak due to no apex in the nail Technician replies my nails are now too damaged to put a new set on I tell them to please refund my money instead They denied refunding my money after failing to provide a service They ended being extremely rude and I left @Alberta Nail Spa: if you do not return my money I will contact the better business bureau. I really enjoyed my Dip Set with Yen. She did my pedi last time. I just moved to this neighborhood and was stoked when I found out there was a nail spa right near me, but was going to be bummed if I found out it wasn't a good spot to visit. But it turned out to be great! Yen gives the best massages. I would give it 5 stars, but the music and decor are super outdated. Yen g read more

I went with my best friend to get our nails done for my wedding this weekend. I'm usually a regular and go here every two weeks but after this visit, I don't think I can go back. My nails were great but my best friend had a lady butcher her toes and fingers and when she would pull away or say this is hurting me she would just tell her to stop moving and sit still and blamed her. She was very rude and erratic and immediately after we were done we were rushed to pay without getting lotion or anything. Horrible visit. Super disappointed this was my wedding nail experience. read more
