Great and clean. Easy walk in for pedicures. The service was great and I loved how well my tech took care of my toes. The massage chairs were decent as well. The *only* thing I would mention is they play AI music videos... which personally, I wish they would play or support normal human artists on YouTube. But that's just personal preference, and has nothing to do with the business itself. read more

a lot--especially because she is very picky when it comes to her nails. This is the only place she consistently trusts, and she always leaves happy. The quality of work here is amazing. The staff is detail-oriented, gentle, and really takes their time to make sure everything looks perfect. Our go-to nail techs are Cindy, Tina, Holly, and Elvis--they're all fantastic and super consistent. The salon is clean, welcoming, and runs efficiently, but I highly recommend making an appointment because they get busy (for good reason!). If you're looking for a reliable nail salon with great service and beautiful results every time, this is definitely the spot. read more

Holly was so sweet and great. My first time here and I got a mani and pedi. I usually leave quite disappointed with these places because my nails aren't exactly how I wanted them to be, but Holly did an amazing job. She was gentle and took her time and my nails looked amazing. Inside is nice, however I wish they had warm lights instead of fluorescent and played spa music instead of having the news on hahaha. But I can tolerate that! Prices were also the most affordable! $40 for mani/pedi read more

I was looking for a place nearby that did nails and I saw they accepted walk-ins. I showed them a picture of what I wanted and I honestly think they did such a great job! The nail technician was kind and skilled in her work. The lady who also helped me to get a walk-in appointment was very friendly. This was my first time ever getting nail extensions, and I would say it was a good experience. These nails were amazing and I got compliments on them! I recommend this nail salon to anybody in the area : ) read more

I have been going to Darling for years. I have not found a better nail salon. I LOVE all of the ladies and Elvis (of course!!!!! )! Everyone is kind and does everything to make sure their clients are satisfied. They seem to know just about everyone who walks through the door which goes a long way in making their business feel special. Thank you, Darling!!! read more

Always happy when I leave this place. Price is reasonable and definitely does not gauge their price every time. The girls, and Elvis, are always friendly so the vibe is always nice. read more

Do you want to know what I truly can't stand? Businesses that create unnecessary drama around the payment process. Just take my payment and be done with it! I can walk into an LV and drop a few grand on a purse, and they make it seem as if nothing is even happening. Pleasant, clean, and simple. That's the way of smart businesses; you're not supposed to make the guests hyper aware that they're even spending money. But at many of these type of establishments, you pay in the double digits and they make it seem as if something is going to happen to their money. They have so much angst about the money collecting process! This is one of those places. So do you take credit cards or not?! Don't say that you don't take credit cards and have signs all over the place about it, and then come to find out, they actually do take credit cards. It's so deceitful! On the same note, don't say that you don't allow tipping on the card, and then actually do when they find out that you don't have cash. Either take credit cards or don't! Sorry that credit card companies charge a minimal fee; take it on the chin like EVERY other establishment out there, and just process the credit card payment with a smile. Is it worth all that stress just to save like $0.50?! And also to lose all future business from me?! It's the main reason why I won't return to businesses like these. I want businesses to not have a near aneurysm every time they collect payment. It's not a big ask. read more

They cut me twice. Why do I keep going? They're convenient and down the street. They are all really nice people & friendly but the work is majority pretty bad, and painful, hence I always leave bleeding. There's really no reason to get your nails done here besides the fact that the price is reasonable and the people are friendly. They don't massage you at all if you get a mani/pedi. So the techs are also rushing and lazy. So if you don't mind getting a low quality nail job and don't want to drive far this is the place for you. read more

If i could give a zero review i would, the owner was beyond rude and didn't do what i asked for and instead of her apologizing she decided to argue with me. I showed her a picture of the nails I wanted and she didn't meet my expectations. Do not recommend 0/10 read more

I tried this place out for the first time and they were all so good! I liked my silver ( mirror powder with jel top finished) nails @$35 on my hands and toe nails in navy color @$32! They are 1. Quick 2. Careful 3. And give you Reasonable prices! I would definitely love to go back to this nail salon! read more

I use to come here all the time because they did amazing nails. But today I went in for a regular manicure and pedicure, no gel, and I was treated horribly. First off, they totally ignored me. I was told hi, sat in the chair and for 1.5 hours I was not talked to. This has never happened to me. And I came in the middle of the day! There was no one in the salon except me. I usually get gel because 50% of the time it's good. But I didn't have time to sit in a chair forever. First they wouldn't warm up my water, even when I asked. So my feet were in freezing cold water. My hands weren't even put in water. It was straight to the cut. I was cut many times when they were trimming my cuticles. Blood people. It took the girl 45 minutes to do 2 designs that cost $7! Totally hiked up their prices and I posted the latest prices. I will never come back here. They just lost business from 5 returning customers. read more

Infection alert! Went here for the first time because I heard they did outdoor services given the coronavirus restrictions. I went for an outdoor pedicure because my last pedi from my regular place was 6 weeks ago and my nails looked like hell (but my regular place isn't open). The gentleman here who did my pedi kept digging and cutting on the side after I said not to. Then some skin either got snipped or who knows what, and as I flinched and said, "Ow!" he apologized yet kept going. Turns out that little area got infected and, less than 24 hours later was inflamed and red. When I took the nail polish off to inspect further, I was able to squeeze pus from that same spot. Not great at all. Nice staff, pleasant area, but be careful. I know this is never intentional and that accidents happen, but...ew. And ow. My fault for being vain! read more

10 out of 10 recommend this place this is the best nail salon in Anaheim Hills. Go to Cyndi and Elvis. They are the best.

I'm very surprised at the poor reviews for Darling Nails. I've been a loyal customer since they opened their first location off of Serrano. I now come to this location as Lily is full time at this location. Lily and Elvis both are great. They're very flexible and have always been accommodating with my last minute appointments. read more

Cindy did my nails!! And she did such a good job and you can tell she really cares about making sure the outcome looks really good.

Hello fellow Yelpers. .this review is actually for their new location on Santa Ana Cyn road. It's a small little place but it's perfect. Great selection of gel colors...polish and dips. Prices- Excellent Service- Awesome! The gals do a great job and they are NOT pushy or trying to shove any upgrades down your throat. They are very kind and sweet there. I like that it's a small place ..I can actually relax. Drama free? - yes. I'm fluent in Vietnamese and no one is saying anything about anyone. (I don't look Vietnamese) They helped my girls out with color choices to go with their prom dresses. I've been to so many nail salons and I'm seriously happy here. My dipped nails last quite awhile. Will be back soon. read more

Hannah was amazing she did my dip nails and I would totally recommend this salon!!! The price is right and all the staff were nice!!!

It was pretty late on Sunday when I decided I absolutely needed a pedicure. I'm truly awful at doing them regularly and haven't found any place I would really go back to in Anaheim Hills. I never noticed Darling Nails before and the store is not visible from the streets, so thank you to yelpers for your reviews. It's located across from the elementary school in a small business complex. I called and was told to come in in about 5 minutes at about 4:15 pm. I got a wonderful pedicure from Mimi with a good massage, which I wasn't expecting for the basic pedicure. I added a callous remover, which was well worth it here, she took so much dead skin off. Most of the salons do a half ass job for callous removing so I really appreciated her effort! The total only came out to $22.50, which is super cheap. This place is so close to me and I'm so super happy I found it! ETA - my gel manicure was wonderful with Hanna but my last pedicure was not that good. The lady's working on me cut the cuticles way too much and dug into the sides of my toe and now I have an infection. I will of course be coming back, but will be careful about who does my nails. read more

Just moved to the area, so this is the first nail salon to try. At first I was going to give them 2/3 starts bcuz when I walked in I explained I wanted a gel manicure and to fix my toe bcuz a few days prior I had hit it and broke my big toe nail in half .. and they looked at each other like I wasn't making sense and then began talking amongst themselves for 2 min.. then had me change seats twice.. being 35 weeks pregnant I was already annoyed. But once we got passed the language barrier I loved my end results. They removed the gel on my toes,trimmed nails fixed my toe nail and painted toes w regular polish for only $15!! With my gel manicure my total was $40!! Will definitely be coming back. read more
