First time here and I will definitely be returning! Got a basic manicure with gel and was serviced by Tiffany! Her attention to detail is incredible. She took her time making sure my cuticles were taken care of. Beautiful space and amazing service!

[[HIGHLIGHT]]Highly recommend this nail salon!!! Wonderful customer service and very kind owner[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]]. Other positives are they use less toxic polishes and use jetless tubs for pedicures (so cleaner and safer!!!) I've been here twice now and the first visit wasn't the best but I wanted to give it another try (part of it was my fault and part of it was just not clicking with the person I had selected). The quality of the gel Polish is really very good and lasted for an entire two weeks without any chips at all! This salon is *very* clean and is very close to my house so I did want to give them another go. [[HIGHLIGHT]]I tried a different nail professional the 2nd visit and she was fantastic!!! So glad I came again - this will be my new regular spot and she will be my preferred provider[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]]. Thank you for being awesome. I also think the prices are relatively reasonable and parking is convenient. And if you need to pop over to Whole Foods, it's just steps away! :-)

Wow! I'm not one to get a pedicure often- maybe once a year as a very special treat? So my recent visit to City Nail Bar was much-anticipated and a fun way to celebrate my birthday. The schedule process (all online) was very smooth and the staff was hospitable upon my arrival. I enjoyed the complimentary Prosecco while waiting to be seated. I was lucky to have Simone who was both friendly, professional and very talented. I often find that pedicures can be somewhat painful but she was very thoughtful in her approach and checked in with me along the way to see how things were going. I can't wait to make an appointment for a few months from now thanks to this great experience!

Really really excited to have found this spot. Convenient location and parking, OUTSTANDING mani and pedi by Micah. The salon itself isn't much, but the quality of the service is amazing, I can't wait to come back! Note - this is not a quick in and out, Micah was meticulously detailed (which I deeply appreciate) so I was there for about 2 hours for a gel mani and pedi.

Ezmy does an absolutely stunning job! I highly recommend her - she is gentle with your nails and takes her time being sure your nails look perfect. I unfortunately have to say I have to stop going to see her though. I went to have polish removed this week and had an awful experience with a homeless man running up to my car window yelling sexual profanities. I understand that this is not City Nail Bar's fault but after I told my husband about the incident, and acknowledging that I felt scared, it is not worth it to revisit again. I need to find a location closer to my home in the suburbs. I hope that they eventually move locations and I can return!

This place was great! I came on with gel polish on from another nail salon, and they were able to take it off easily and replace it with regular nail polish. The nail technician was extremely helpful. The color I chose was pearlescent and she pointed out that it might look nicer with some white underneath to make it pop, so that's what we did! She spent a lot of time making sure that my nails were perfectly shaped and making sure that I loved the polish. If I was in more of a rush I might have been annoyed by how long The appointment took, but I had nothing scheduled afterwards so I appreciated the attention to detail. There were plastic screens in front of every station and everyone wore masks the whole time. I felt very safe going there during covid and would go back. I love my nails, thanks!

Awesome experience with Claudia and Ashlyn tonight! My friend and I made an appointment and they were able to sit us together, which I appreciate. We were offered drinks, which is a nice touch. And free upgrade to gel! Good mix of conversation and just letting me introvert and enjoy doing nothing. Love that their polish is healthier/better for you. Will definitely be back!

I hate even leaving this review bc I don't want this place to be impossible to get into. But it is hands down the cleanest nail salon I've ever seen! Plus they only offer services that won't damage the heck out of your nails (they do not offer dip or acrylic but try the Apres!). The Apres nails last soooo long, like mine still looked amazing 3+ weeks and that's including hand washing dishes. Booking is super easy and they can do all types of nail art. The staff is all a bunch of sweethearts and Suzanne is the best!!!

A fine place to get nails done. Probably best suited for someone wanting nail art as opposed to just a typical gel manicure. I suppose them not using drills is a positive in some ways, but the nail tech made every single one of my fingers bleed while using the nail file instead of a drill. She was basically just filing my skin over and over. The most painful nail appointment I've had Lol and it was verrryyy slowww - I do think some technicians are great - Jimmy, for example, is very thorough and careful and costs less than the person I went to for this appointment. I will be more careful when selecting a technician in the future! Pic from 3 days after appointment! Gel looks great

Such a beautiful spot! Everyone there is so nice, and I'm excited for them to open their Bates-Hendricks location! I had Diamond for my manicure and Katie for my pedicure and they were both really talented and asked questions along the way to make sure I was happy. Services are fairly priced and I found street parking on their block of New Jersey right away.

I had another fantastic appointment with Rebekah. She is absolutely fantastic! If you're looking for an all inclusive, comfortable, and positive experience, definitely check out city nail bar! Pictured are gel-X nails. The total came to around $75. I think it's well worth it for the longevity of the nails and that the process they use causes no damage to the nails!

Ask the Community - City Nail Bar

What is the parking situation like?

There is metered street parking and a parking garage you can pay to park at across the street.

What is the difference between the natural nail enhancement and the Apres gel X extension?

Hello! The Apres Gel X is a tip that provides additional length to your nail. The natural nail enhancement is a builder gel that is applied to your nail to provide strength and potentially a longer lasting manicure. Please call us at 317-426-3890… 

Do you do dip nails?

No, we have no offer any acrylic products. However, we have the natural nail enhancement. This is a hard gel overlay that provides strength and a longer lasting gel polish. Typically around 3 weeks.

Sarah is absolutely AMAZING…read more I originally wanted to do an acrylic fill, but opted in for gel extensions instead. Turns out, the salon I went to previously used MMA on my nails, which is an illegal cheap cancer-causing chemical that destroys your natural nail. Sarah went out of her way to remove the MMA as carefully as possible, and manicured my nails to look healthier than ever before (see picture #1). The gel extensions were applied so carefully and in such detail, they are almost too perfect-looking! I asked for plain white with a cute chrome layer on top (see picture #2). She also is capable of doing INCREDIBLE designs -- probably some of the best designs I have EVER seen on nails. Unsure if I can add Instagram on reviews, but look up @s.eliana23! She is truly SO talented! I had such an amazing experience having Sarah as my nail tech. Thank you to Pamper Me Services for connecting me with her!! LOVE my nails!!!

They were able to take appointments for quite a way out, as well as booking appointments for soonish; I booked a pedicure with Tim right before my trip abroad, giving myself maximum time to grow out the ingrowns the last place gave me. Big place, with lots of stations and lots of professionals. Clean, light and airy. The massage chair pedicure stations faced a large flatscreen tv showing the Olympic Games. Nice! Tim didn't give me much time to soak, but was very careful not to cut my nails too short, and not to file them too much in the corners. My podiatrist would approve. Didn't take off enough callus on the ends of my pinkie toes, but that's a hard area to reach. Massage of the feet and calves with lotion was relatively brief, but used a nice lotion that didn't reek of artificial scent, like the last place. Did a beautiful job painting my nails. Fast, efficient, professional, and no pain. I was happy. Afterward, relaxed by the good experience, I asked about a manicure, and ended up seeing Tim's colleague Linh, who was awesome. She told me about gel builder, to armor my weak and brittle nails without damaging them, and I signed up. We left my short nails the color the gel builder comes in -- a nice, natural pink. Maybe now I'll actually be able to grow them out past my fingertips, without them snagging and tearing! I love how strong and smooth they are now, which is helpful in making jewelry! I booked a follow up for a month from now. I look forward to trying out more of their services!

Decided to go here since they're in downtown and had a lot of appt available during the week day. I…read morewas able to book a pedicure same day on a Monday. The place overall looks pretty. I will say the chairs are not that comfy as they're office chairs and they're kinda hard to move back and forth. It's a tight space and also hard for me to move around once I need to get up without worrying about messing up my toes. The nail tech did a fine job though she did scrub my heel too hard and scratched it. I also felt like it's not like the quick experienced nail tech since it felt like she struggled to clip my toe nails. Also note that there's no parking validation and check out where to park beforehand. Parking right outside costed $8 for 1 hr. I'm newish to Indy and usually dont get pedicures so I don't have a regular spot. This works in a pinch but I think I'd rather go somewhere else that may be further away from downtown for a tech that can properly trim nails.

We were prompted greeted by Tina and shown around the spa and to our lockers. In the ladies locker room area, there are showers, a sauna, and a steam room. We got there early so we could enjoy the pool and other amenities. Unfortunately, when we arrived there were hotel guests in the pool, including children. That's not all that conducive to relaxing unfortunately so we didn't get in the water at all. Tina also helped us order a lovely lunch from Capitol Grill and took overall very good care of us while we relaxed and waited for our spa appointments. The services: Both of us had nice services but honestly both felt we had had better for various reasons. My esthetician was good and did a very nice job but I had added on a leg scrub. The leg scrub was great but it came At the sacrifice of the hand and wrist massage you might typically get. My friend's service was good but was slow to start and the provider had some clumsiness issues and dropped items on the floor creating loud noises. The only thing that was really "bad" was the temperature of the atrium area/pool and hot tub area. It was HOT in there. It was so warm in there that we just couldn't force ourselves in the hot tub or the sauna/steam room. Tips: 1. there is street parking, which is free on Sundays 2. When you walk in, go closer to the check in desk to the second set of elevators and the spa is on the 6th floor 3. There is cold water and some cold towels in the Gym on the same floor.
