This place has absolutely horrible customer service. I booked an appointment online well in advance, only to show up and be told their website is no longer used for booking. No one bothered to notify me beforehand. Then, when I arrived, one of the employees asked her coworker if she could do my gel manicure, and the coworker flat-out said, "No, I don't want to. My hands hurt." Are you kidding me? I'm a paying customer--it's your job to provide the service. They eventually told me no one could help me and that I'd have to wait until someone else finished. I had places to be and couldn't sit around waiting because of their disorganization and lack of professionalism. If you value your time and money, avoid this place at all costs. They clearly don't care about their customers. read more

Holy cow its so horrible, no communication and really bad nails, they hurt so bad and cut me and my moms actual skin and the nails were so bumpy, they filed down my nail when i had clme in for a fill and messed up my actual base color too, i was genuinely so stuck on if i was going to left or stay and honestly i shouldve taken my mom and left from how bad it was. read more

If i could give 0 stars i would. I had a terrible experience this weekend at ameri nails. I asked for a simple white french tip and this is what i got. I kept asking to get it fixed and the man doing my nails would not understand. They were no help at register and did nothing at all. Very disappointed !!!!!!!! read more

Very little communication to customer. They told me to come back in 30 mins for my nails and I came back and they still weren't ready for me and took another 30 mins to get to my nails. So total I waited an hour with no apology. read more

So.. came in asked home much would it cost for something like the first picture and the lady said $30. Went to my car to grabbed $40 so I could leave some tip. After an hour.. those last pictures were the final results. To be honest, I'm not even mad, this actually makes me laugh a little. It's just funny that they would charge that amount of money for something not well done. They should be ashamed after seeing their final result. But no, they still have the audacity to look at the final results and not say a thing. Oh well.. at least I know not to come here anymore. Oh and btw.. at the end they ended up charging me $35, "they didn't have any change" so they basically took $40 for this piece of ART!!!!! read more

Great service and cute place! They are very friendly. They always do a great job with my wife's nails.

TERRIBLE. DO NOT GO. I wish I read the google reviews before coming here. I picked out a purple and it came out BROWN. When I called the woman out she said THERES NOTHING WE CAN DO. Because apparently they don't have nail polish remover? So painted over them BLACK. The pinky is partly unfinished. Half the nails are lopsided and crooked, not the same size per hand. They charged me $30 more than the price quoted at the door. Cut my cuticles twice. I plan on disputing the charge for a full refund once the transaction posts. Save your self the trouble. read more

I've had my nails done 100 times but I've never had them done here and I have to say I love the way they did my nails they were not thick the polish was amazing the technician even helped me pick out my nail polish because I wasn't happy with the other ones that I initially asked for! 5 stars!! I have to say there was this lady she let everyone know she's "a physician" she went off on one of the nail techs because apparently her paint on her nails didn't turn out the way she liked?? She was loud, and through out her new paint job she was going off on the lady! My friend had asked what was wrong w her nails to the clinician and that triggered Dr Karen so the sweet older Asian nail tech got her butt berated a good 45 min! Before Dr Karen left she announces "i e been coming her 2 yrs and I will not be back!!" hey dr Karen!!! No one wants you back! But when the good dr finally left the nail tech was literally in tears I was so hurt by the way this lady treated her! it taught me a good lesson about when things don't always go the way I want it, to always remember there's a human inside that has feelings and I'm sure problems that none of us are aware of, so please be kind to one another and remember it's just fricking nails!! I was very very happy with the service I got there read more

Ive been getting my nails done for over 20 years and have never been able to find someone that can really give me a good thorough pedi. Until the other night when Amerinails went above and beyond to take care of me. Kim and Tony are the best of the best hands down. They conduct business in a fun and friendly matter and have excellent business ethics. Tony is a skilled professional at doing nails. He delivers beautiful lasting results. Actually all the men there are really good. Kim, you blew my mind, you are heavenly sent you did an amazing job and have made me a true and loyal customer. Thank you Kim and thank you to everyone at Amerinails. read more

If I could rate ZERO I would. I asked for a simple gel manicure and they couldn't even do that. Oh and they ripped my nail off when trying to remove previous acrylics I had. I honestly can't remember who did my nails but the whole thing seems sketchy. Even my toes came out bad!!!!! If I were you I wouldn't risk it. I went in there so happy I had gotten out off class early and had time to finally to time to get my nails and toes done. I literally was crying while walking out. This nail salon has been the worst I've been too ever! Wouldn't even recommend to my worst enemy! read more

Very happy with my nails! Ben does an amazing job. He's always in a great mood, with great conversation even after working very long hours. I'm always so amazed with his work ethic. He will always take his time and make sure you walk out a happy customer. My nails turned out amazing but my experience was even better. Amerinails will always have a loyal customer. I highly recommend Ben, his work speaks for itself. These are mermaid gel color in number 15 with a marble accent nail on each hand. read more

Ok so I went here this past weekend and fell in love all over again!! I got a regualr manicure and a deluxe spa pedicure (includes sea salt & paraffin wax treatment)..ahhmaaazing! The salon was nice and clean with a rightfully so relaxing atmosphere. It's a bit pricier, but they have specials depending on the day you drop in and you definitely quality that you're paying for! I actually live down this way so it's super convenient. It also helps that they have mail hours so don't close until 9 p.m. M-Sat.!!I'm sold...not going anywhere else. They even gave me a coupon for my next visit! *happy dance* Now, I realize San Ysidro is pretty much far for anyone who doesn't live here, so I'd say if you're heading down to shop at Las Americas Outlet mall which you should be becuase they have a ton of new stores that just opened this weekend (don't ask me why I'm promoting lol), go ahead and treat yourself to a nice mani/pedi at Amerinails too (next door to Duty Free). I'm sure you deserve it! ;) read more

I had a 3 week old acrylic gel manicure that needed a fill. I'm from LA so I am always looking on Yelp for nail salons that do Kawaii style nails (cute designs, studs, ext.) when I come in town to San Diego to visit my family on the weekends. Came in and was greeted by Valerie (manager) she was super welcoming and attentive. Showed me all the gel colors they have and designs they could do. She showed me tons of studs, rhinestones, pearls, charms, that they can apply. I showed her a picture of a nail design from my phone and she made sure to explain to the technician how I wanted them to make sure they came out like the picture. She would come around to check up on me and ask if I liked everything so far ( shape of the nail, length, etc.) I really enjoyed the personal and attentive service. I didn't feel pressured at all to do anything I didn't want to. I am very pleased with how my almond shaped nails came out. If something wasn't right I would tell them and they would fix it without a problem. Pricing is competitive too :) I will definitely be back when I'm on town! I would give the extra star if they were a bit more cleanly at their stations. read more

Let me start off by saying how amazing Ben is! He gave me exactly what I asked for and they came out great. He works super fast but is also very precise with his work. I would definitely keep coming back for Ben! read more

Amerinails - Fun nails i got done for my friends wedding!!:) - Nail Salons Near Me - San Diego, California

Came here on a whim after shopping at the las Americas outlet for a regular manicure. The shop itself is spacious and clean, but I was turned off that my manicurist insisted I get a gel manicure which is almost 3x more expensive than a regular one. I'm not a huge fan of gel manicures because they leave my nails dry and rough after I remove it and also because I just don't want to spend that much money on my nails. Anyway, I paid $18 including tip for a regular French tip manicure. I think my manicurist did a good job cleaning my nails thoroughly and getting all the dead skin off the sides, but it was definitely not done meticulously. My nails weren't even filed evenly and my manicure chipped after less than 24 hours. It's so hard to find a good nail salon and sadly, this is another one that was just a miss. Good thing I'm not from the area so I won't be back. read more

Worst place to get a manicure with gel ! I went in to get a manicure and pedicure and lasted three hours there when it was not even packed .

I would not recommend this place if you want nice nails ! As for pedicure they did an amazing job . read more

Located in Las Americas Premium outlets, Amerinails is a lifesaver when you're in need of a quality manicure and want it done in a clean, professional salon. The staff there is very friendly, and welcoming. They are also generous, like offering you water and snacks while you wait. This salon offers good quality nail polishes including gel. Moreover, apart from a spa manicure and pedicure, this salon offers waxes, Dermalogica Facials, and eyelash extensions. I would definitely recommend AmeriNails to everyone. read more

I first started coming to Amerinails back in June and I have been coming back ever since. I started coming here to get eyelash extensions and every time I leave from an appointment I'm always happy with how my lashes come out! (: I'm constantly getting compliments about how my lashes look so nice and natural for a while people couldn't believe they were extensions. I've seen other pictures of eyelash extensions but none of them have looked as good as getting them done at Amernails. The manger there Val is seriously the best at her job. She takes her time doing each clients lashes and never rushes her work. So many people come from different areas just to get there lashes done and I can understand why. Val is the best person I know who does lash extensions and I love going to see her. Not only is she great at her job but she constantly checks on other clients who come in and the other employees are just as great. As soon as you walk in there's a receptionist who welcomes you in and they always offer you a drink and snack while you wait. It's the best thing ever especially because not a lot of nail salons are like that. I recently started getting my nails done there also and I love it. I normally have Henry do my nails and I'm always satisfied with the end results. I always have a picture of how I want my nails to look and they always come out way better then I would've thought. I get many compliments on the way my nails looks. I'm usually have people telling me nice things about my nails, but the way that Henry does them is the best I have ever gotten. Amernails has officially become my new favorite nail salon and I can't wait until my next appointment (: I highly recommend everyone come here to get their nails done and to get eyelash extensions done by the very best the Manger in charge Valerie! read more

I've came here a couple of times to get my eyelashes done with Valerie have no negative things to say about her or her work! She's very professional, friendly and makes sure you always leave happy after your appointment! My go-to nail place is diva nails and haven't gone anywhere else in a very long time, this day I was in a hurry and decided to get my nails down here after I got my eyelash full, I left satisfied with my nails it was a simple white tip nothing special, after a few days my right index finger started to grow a lump on the side of my nail.. I sent Valerie a picture right away knowing she's the manager and she told me it wasn't infected and to come right in that they would fix it ... I couldn't make it in those days due to work but the lump grew a little more and it was actually painful I ended up going to the dr because everyone was freaking me out saying it was infected went to the dr and turns out to be it did get infected.. I don't want to bash their business but just a heads up to know where you get your nails done, and it I hope it doesn't happen to anyone else! Won't be coming back to get nails done here again, but if anyone's looking for a great place to get your eyelashes done Valerie's your girl. read more

So happy I found this place, officially my new nail shop. I came in for a gel mani & pedi. I am absolutely obsessed with my mani. Mimi did such an amazing job. They didn't have the color I originally wanted, since they were out. So she was really kind and tried to find the closest thing to it. She took her time and my nails look perfect. The same on my pedicure, she truly is amazing. On Monday, Tuesday & Wednesday they have a 25$ deal for a spa mani/pedi. Ladies try it out! Come here early as they get busy pretty fast. read more

I have been coming here for a while, but I moved to Chula Vista where I would go to a different nail salon. I'm one to never complain, and I have had many great experiences here, but the day I went was not very great. The lady who did my ($18) pedi was great, but it was not until I had asked for a ($10) eyebrow wax where it went downhill. I asked the receptionist if I could have a wax and she said that the Mexican lady who did my pedi was the only one who could do it. She was already starting someone's nails and asked her client kindly if she could service me first and the client said of course. We go into the room, and she starts waxing my eye brows. Her daughter opens the door WITHOUT knocking and hands her some kind of food. She eats it. She continues to wax me and I asked her if she can also wax the hairs on my forehead. She did not understand so I asked her again, in Spanish. Her daughter opens the door again WITHOUT knocking and watches her mother wax me while chewing and smacking on whatever she was eating and starts making conversation with her mother. The mother (not once) told her to leave. While waxing me she took a huge chunk of the wax and sloppily put it on my skin. The daughter leaves and comes back. The door slightly opened, but this time she was PEAKING inside. She finally leaves again and one of the ladies who work there comes inside and asks the lady what was taking so long and I said I asked her to do my forehead. She finally finished and I just wanted to get out of there. I politely thanked her, tipped her, and proceeded to the register. They charged me $18 for my pedi, but the receptionist asked one of the ladies how much to charge me for my wax. It was understandable if they charged me more than $10. The receptionist then told me it was $58 for everything. I swiped my card and left as I just wanted so badly to leave. As I was walking to my car, I was calculating in my head. I decided to go back and ask and the receptionist said $18 for pedi and $40 for the wax. My forehead isn't that HUGE... Is It? (I literally touched my forehead and asked myself that question) "Is my forehead worth a $40 wax?" I honestly just smiled, said thank you, and left. I knew I should have just gone to House of Beauty for my wax as they only charge $6 to wax my small forehead. I had a beer after. read more

So I've been scoping some new nail joints to try out and I've stumbled across this one when I was shopping at Las Americas!! I was impressed the instant I walked in as the environment was well maintained and the ambiance was very modern and cool. The staff was very accommodating, as they offer complimentary water and snacks for the ride as they service you. It wasn't awkward at all as they would converse with you; very welcoming. I value customer service, so they are up to par here! :-) Overall, I'm super content with my service as they do provide a wide array of colors and they sanitize every spa after each customer. I love how they're conveniently located near the outlet too, so you can get your nails done after a long day of shopping! I'll be back soon!! read more

Excellent service, excellent quality! Got my eyelash extensions done by Valerie and I absolutely LOVE them! My eyelashes are very thin, short, and straight, and with my wedding coming up, I figured lash extensions would be a good deal to dodge a bunch of eye makeup. It was my first time getting eyelash extensions ever, and Valerie was kind and patient enough to fill me in on the pre-appointment instructions once I scheduled. During the procedure, she let me know about all the details of what was going on so that I wasn't completely in the dark. She let me know which lashes would suit my natural lashes best, what length, why, etc. She was also very friendly the entire experience and we were able to engage in good conversation which helped the time pass even faster! The lash extensions came out even better than I was expecting! They look so natural and nicely enhance the length and volume of my natural lashes. After, she further explained what to expect and how to properly care for the lash extensions. Valerie is an AWESOME esthetician and I HIGHLY recommend her services! I'm definitely looking forward to coming back! read more

LOOOOOVEEEE Valerie! She does an amazing job EVERY time whenever I get my lashes done. And the price??? Can't get any better $75 for full lashes and $25-$40 for refill depending on how many lashes you've lost already. But you can go for 3 weeks without looking like you've just cried your eyes out with clumped up mascara. Just make sure to groom them from time to time with the mascara wand she gives you. Service wise, she's pretty aMazing! She's all abzout customer satisfaction and making sure they're happy with the end result. And she's super understanding! She'll let you sleep if you're tired, play whatever music you like, or keep you entertained with her conversational skills. I also get spa pedicures every time I get a refill of lashes. $18 :] pretty good I say - especially compared to the $20 and horror stories I hear that my homegirls always complain about. I love it so much that I made my boyfriend do it with me and now he gets them done with me every time! Haha he's never felt his cuticles so nice before! Haha anyways, they also give you those disposable slippers so you can go about your day without wasting time waiting for them to dry. Got a gel mani there twice. Did an amazing job! They even let me off set one of my nails at no extra charge! I know some places get bougie and say it's an extra $1 or some crap like that just to do that. They know so many designs too! It's awesome! I think i got my gel mani for $25. Still really good :D But all in all, amazing services, awesome staff and just an awesome place to go to! read more

Before saying anything, let me be very clear - my rating is for the amazing pedicure that Lisa (I hope I got her name right) did! She is incredible!! By far the most relaxing pedicure I have received. Thank you very much...pedicure #2 is soo worth in the hands of Lisa. She is patient, takes her time and her massage was everything, which I was very grateful for after not pampering myself for about an year- she delivers for what you pay for. No rush and the sweetest when applying the hot towel, wax, etc. read more

all i have to say is stay away from this place. I've had multiple bad experiences but I keep giving them the benefit of the doubt and keep coming back but after this time I will never be coming back. They take forever, I asked for a pedicure and ended up waiting 45 minutes in the chair with my feet all wet and had to end up leaving because they were taking forever. read more

Service was very basic, pedicurist didn't even scrub my feet because she was in a rush to leave. At the end of my services I rounded my total to include the tip. The person charging me asked me twice what I wanted my total to be, only to come to realize that they had DOUBLED my tip WITHOUT MY AUTHORIZATION. It's was very clear what I had agreed to add to my total as the person charging clearly repeated by total with tip, as she asked me twice. This is theft, simply unacceptable. read more

This used be a good spot and definitely not anymore. I went to get gal manicure on Thursday, a guy greeted me and made me sit on the back. A lady came and she seemed like she did t know what she was doing in the beginning anyway. I can say that there was no manicure job at all except cutting my nails.. she did a bad job coloring it as well. It's only bad 2 days since I got my nails done and I'm not satisfied at all. I don't know if that day was her training day or whatever, the reason I didn't say anything that day because I didnt wanna make a problem. She also called the other lady and I could tell she was asking and talking about my nails, I think she knew she did a bad job . I was charged $37 for nothing. I'm never ever coming back here to get my nails done again. Attached is the picture of my nails which I got it done only 2 days ago !!!! Worst manicure I have ever had. read more
