This is theeee best nail salon I've ever been to. Everyone who works here is so nice. I always bring in pictures from the internet of how I want my nails to look and they always do a good job at matching the design. Vincent is so funny and friendly. Since COVID requires them to operate outside, it gets cold in the alley way sometimes and a customer was unprepared for that sort of weather. Vincent went to his car to get her one of his own sweaters so she could stay warm while her nails were being done. Everyone here is so kind and considerate. I go here regularly and will continue to do so. I 100% recommend this nail salon. read more

Unfortunately, I can not recommend this place. I really needed somewhere that does good callus removal and Mary or Kim was recommended via Nextdoor. They weren't available when I called so the receptionist recommended Nina. I asked if she was good at callus/dry skin removal (since the last couple of places I've been they barely scrubbed my foot and my heels are still rough). She said she had been there a while and was good. I got there and it turned out a man was doing my pedicure, and Nina my manicure. He got to work but just did the basic heal pumic scrub so I specifically asked for callus removal (the whole reason I came in and the service for which I asked for on the phone). He used the callus removal gel but barely let it sink in. They used a metal grate but my feet are still super rough, which is really disappointing, I just wanted soft feet! Is that so much to ask? No complaints about my mani, Nina did a good job. I also noticed when I got home (roughly 45+ mins after my pedi was done) that my toes were still not dry! The top was dry but the polish underneath was still wet so it's totally smudged and ruined. I think this is because they used gel polish on my toes but didn't cure it (since I asked for regular). For $90 plus 20% tip I'm pretty disappointed. Will not be coming back. read more

Made an appointment and went in for a mani/pedi based on the favorable yelp reviews. Service: great (5 stars) Pedi: good and includes a foot/calf massage (4 stars) Mani: poor (1 star) Overall, it was a decent visit. However, I was severely disappointed with my manicure. The young lady was nice and provided good customer service so I made sure to tip her 20% before she painted my nails. Why was it bad? 1. Nails were cut jagged and asymmetrical 2. There was dust on nails for both the index and middle finger on my right hand and she picked another nail polish to paint over instead of removing it. 3. Nail polish is painted very streaky on every single nail. Having said that, I probably won't return for the pedicures since I usually get then done with a mani. I am definitely not coming back for a manicure. Though it's only $10, I can do a better job myself at home. A bad mani is really an eye sore... read more

My friend found this place so randomly and she loved Marry, her nails looked amazing and lasted so long, so I wanted to try this place too, because I moved from Los Angeles and couldn't find a good nail tech.

I've been going to delicate nails for a few years now I love their work. every time I have walked in I've been greeted with a Smile and they go above and beyond to make sure I'm taken care of. My set always lasts over three weeks which is amazing given how much work I put in with my hands and I'm always happy with the way my nails turn out thank you so much delicate I will be referring all my friends to you! read more

First time here! Called last min to see if they had time to do a full set on me. I don't live in Walnut Creek and wish I did because Vincent did such a great job with my nails! There is no good nail place where I live , and I wish I lived closer to this place! He took me in a hour before closing and still took his time and made sure I was happy with my nails. I told him my concerns with other nail salons and he knew his stuff! And told me reasons why other nail salons did things certain ways. You can tell he has a lot of experience! I will definitely be back! read more

Good place where you can go and make your pedicure and manicure really fast, even if you didn't make appointment they have always one extra seat for you. One time i was not happy at all with how they did my manicure, after few days i went there again to fix that and they did it much better. Always can recommend that place, oh yes they're doing really good foot massage.. i think i can stay all day there just to have that massage. Definitely will go again. read more

DO NOT GO TO THIS SALON! I recently moved to Walnut Creek and was looking for a nail salon to get my nails done, I used to live in San Jose and my favorite place there was awesome, one of the best in the city. I went to Delicate Salon hoping it would be a good experience since downtown WC is a great area, but it wasn't. The lady who did my nails was nice but apparently they do not use enough glue on the tip/acrylics. I got a new full set, and 4 days later I had a nail fall of, 2 more days and another one fell off. I called and set an appt to get those fixed. When I went there the man who fixed it (not sure if it's the owner), was kinda rude and blamed this on me, saying I should not use hand sanitizer, that the reason was the use of sanitizer. LIKE WHAT WORLD DO YOU LIVE IN? We not always have a sink available right?! We've been in a pandemic for a year and a half, and for part of that time I was living in Nevada, where the restrictions were lifted before California, so I did get my nails done several times during COVID, used hands sanitizer whenever needed, and never had this happen. After I got my nails fixed, I gave up on giving a negative review on YELP, but today, as I was sitting on my couch watching tv, I see another nail falling off, completely, so CLEARLY THEY DO NOT USE ENOUGH glue. Never going back to this place, where I had 3 nails fall off so soon from a FRESH set, and the manicure was blaming on me when it's obvious that they are NOT doing a GOOD JOB read more

Poor experience. My nail tech was rushing to do my pedicure and didn't really spend more than 5 minutes "cleaning" my nails- maybe because it was going to be covered by nail polish anyway (?). She painfully dug into my big toe (because she was rushing and was being pretty fast and aggressive with a SHARP OBJECT!). Massage was merely light rubbing of feet while she stared off into space. The place has NO VENTILATION (so it reeked of acetone and chemicals)cramped, unkept, and a giant hole on the ceiling. I should have listened to my intuition and walked away as soon as I entered this establishment. read more

I went to delicate only because my nail tech was fully booked.. don't get me wrong, their hospitality is great there. But my acrylic nails weren't.. I usually do different designs on my nails and this one was pretty basic for me.. it cost 85 dollars for this... 85! I could get a hand drawn abstract face with tortoise nails for 80.. (which was my last nail set from another salon, great quality and shape) I was just a little disappointed that my nails felt like they were rushed.. for 85 dollars for gel and ombré chrome.. I would at least expect my nails to be sharp and square right after getting them done.. I'm sorry but this is a no go for me after this one.. I don't recommend.. read more

The guy who runs this place seems to treat me like royalty when I come in with my American, fairly wealthy friend. But when I'm by myself even with an appointment I seem to be the last one helped or rushed through. FYI, we both tip the same amount of 20-22% every time we come in.... even after a crap job. I thought the owner would be the best at doing nails? LOL read more

I really like this nail salon, and I've been to quite a few!! Vincent is definitely your man for the full set nails, but all the staff is great!! Came in to get full set/mani, hours after my appt i looked down to find out I smudged my big toe nail ‍ Came back a couple days later for them to fix it and the woman who helped me not only fixed the big toe but damn near touched up the rest of my feet and even put a top coat on!! Wow such great customer service ! Thank you so much nails and toes always come out perfect ! read more

I'm having a hard time finding a consistently good place that I can count on for good customer service, nails that have the right shape, color, texture and don't cut the cuticles. I was a long time customer and moved on after bad polish experiences. I returned only to have three cuticles cut that needed pressure to stop the bleeding. The next day one of my gel finished nails cracked. read more

Vincent and his team are the absolute best! I've been going to Delicate Nails for over 6 months now regularly and they are absolutely amazing. My nails are always perfectly shaped and Vincent works with me to do acrylics that I love. My nails get compliments daily!! I highly recommend going here, and they have adopted CDC guidelines during the pandemic to be able to continue to provide service to customers. All of the staff afe professional and skilled at what they do. I've never been disappointed by visiting and I always have a relaxing and pampering experience.

I stumbled upon this place due to their good reviews. I usually go to a different shop for my mani pedi during my work break, but I wanted a cute design and my usual doesn't do designs. I asked for acrylics at first but Vincent told me I didn't need them! No tech has ever told me that at a shop, they just charge me more for acrylics. So I appreciate that they told me! Kim finished up working on me and shaped my real nails beautifully into coffin shape. I got a rose gold chrome color with a few gems on it and it turned out lovely! So happy :) definitely will come back read more

I originally found this Nail Salon searching on Yelp over two years ago because I needed a location that was open Sundays. I walked in and got a pedicure. I instantly loved it because it was one of the most hygienic Salons I had ever visited. Working in the beauty industry myself, my clients love to tell me all the horror stories. This place was amazing. Not just hygienic but cozy and full of associates who are truly nice and care about their jobs. That same day I heard Kim's name called about a dozen times to do fills, so I booked an appointment for my next visit with her. I will never go to anyone else as long as she is around. She ALWAYS does an AMAZING job, and is the friendliest person. I ALWAYS recommend her to my customers and friends as they compliment my nails. I even had my sister drive an hour to come have her nails done here for her wedding day. read more

The staff is super friendly, efficient and prices are awesome! For a manicure and pedicure it was $35. Hard to find those kind of prices in Walnut Creek. Their one downfall... I find in the summertime this place is hotttt and they don't offer water so definitely bring a beverage with you if it's a hot day. This place would have 5 stars if it weren't for the no AC. I would recommend making an appointment because this place is always busy. I didn't make an appointment yesterday and did wait for about 30 minutes. Overall it is an awesome nail spa.. I will definitely be coming back here. read more

I have been here A LOT of times because the women who work here are amazing! I am giving it a 1 star because I didn't have the choice to give 0. Vince is the rudest human I have ever encountered. Every time that I went to get my nails done something always happened. He would argue with customers, would answer the phone very rude and talk bad about them after he would hang up, and so much more! He makes fun of people as well! I always wanted to write a review about him, but I didn't want to be rude because I really enjoyed how the girls would do my nails. This last time I called, was enough for me. I called to see if they were open because of the pandemic. I remember our conversation through the phone word for word. Me: "Hello, I was wondering if you guys were open?" Vince- "What do you want." Me: "Oh yes, I was wondering if you guys were open because of COVID?" Vince: "Yes! I already said what do you want!" Me: "I was wondering if I could only get a gel manicure?" Vince: "No were busy bye!" He hung up right away... why ask what I want in a very rude way and still say you're not available? Makes absolute no sense. I understand not many people should be there and I respect that 100 percent! But Vince is such a great example of someone you should not have as a manager! Ridiculous! I'm so sad because I loved how I got my nails done, but I'm never returning to someone who is absolutely rude to every customer! I'm not upset because they weren't available, but I am frustrated at how someone so rude could still be working there. I had forgotten how rude he was since I haven't gotten my nails done since before the pandemic. read more

super happy i found a nail spot i will definitely be coming back to everyone is nice, friendly and accommodating.

Everyone review was excellent and that's why I came in. I got a great acrylic set - however today they just easily came off. I paid 55 plus tip 7 days ago and now they are popping off. I'm really sad because it's beautiful and typically they last 2 weeks or longer with me. I'm really disappointed that it came off so quickly and all the money spent on them. read more

LOVE! After a few bad experiences at my old regular place, I found Delicate Nails on Yelp, and I love it! I broke one of my nails a week ago and I was in desperate need of a mani, I got a gel manicure and my technician seriously fixed my nails! She was really careful and took her time, I'm impressed with her attention to detail. $30 for a gel manicure, pretty good deal especially for Walnut Creek! I will definitely return! read more

I love this place. Coming here since I moved to Walnut Creek 9 month ago. They are so fast and the nails don't chip or brake for 3-4 weeks. read more

Absolutely the worst service and product I have ever received from a nail salon. If you look at my reviews, you can see that I typically like to only write positive reviews, however my experience here was so terrible that I had to warn others. First, if you look in the photos (Gel set decorated for the forth by Kathy) you can see that the nails were think and already set too far away from my cuticles. Within 3 days they looked like they were 2-3 weeks old. I went into get them fixed at 6pm and they refused to take me, even though there were 3 techs and only 2 customers waiting and they did not close until 7:00 pm. I was furious. You get what you pay for and while their services were cheap, I had to go to another salon and spend 2 hours getting this mess fixed and it cost me double because of the mess she made of my nails (She put shallac polish on top of a full set of fake gel nails). read more

Will not be back. Left this place feeling like crying. cuticle was not properly removed, the nails on the 2 thumbs were cut way too short where my skin appeared longer than the nail. They extended one of them with I think acrylic to make loom ok. Felt very rushed and a terrible experience all together. This is on a non busy Monday. Very sad! read more

ONE OF THE BEST!!! I was in need of a pink and white fill since I go to school far away and haven't found a satisfactory place in the bay area.

Needed my nails done badly and decided to just take a chance and walk in. I was taken immediately but I imagine that is because of the day and time so the salon would be less busy. Overall, very pleased with the quality of service, time taken, and price. I read multiple reviews before coming and people praised Vincent's work. Being a walk-in, I didn't think I'd have my nails done by him, but he did my manicure. I didn't catch the name of the man who did my pedicure, but I was very pleased with both of their work! A little rough on the filing, but nothing to majorly critique. Will definitely keep Delicate nails as a possible go to the next time I'm back in the Bay Area. read more

This place was recommended by a friend because it's one of the only places open during Covid-19. I was shocked by the price list. For a gel manicure and pedicure they wanted to charge $80. Never in my life have I heard of prices that high. So I decided to go with a regular pedi and a gel manicure and saved myself $15. There was nothing special done that would condone pricing this high. The work was rushed and when I went to pay, they told me it's cash only. It feels like they're taking advantage of the fact that we're in a pandemic and they're extremely cheap because they make you pay in cash to avoid fees on their end. It all seems calculated as they have an ATM machine in their vicinity. I will never return. read more

So... I'm always afraid of trying new nail shops. There is this one I used to go to in Walnut Creek where I would leave with my nails looking fabulous but the next day the nail polish would be cracked. Yes cracked. Not chipped! Today, I tried Delicate Nails & Spa. Oh my gosh! What an amazing experience. I got a mani/pedi. Lynn gave me the best massage I've ever had. Even better than the massage parlors. My nails looks great and boy am I relaxed. I'm definitely coming back. I just wish I would have found this place sooner. read more

This salon is hit and miss. I've had a couple great sessions of mani/pedis with friends. I've also seen inconsistent sloppy work especially when I send in my teens without me. We actually had to go back for a shaping redo twice. Nails should last 3+ weeks but theirs are often coming apart on the sides after 2 weeks. They do cute design, but they get quite expensive when you add extra colors. I give their callous removal a 5-star review. I don't know what that solution is but damn it's fantastic. I recommend them, but don't let them cheat you out of their best work. read more

My friend and I decided to drop in for a quick mani pedi after we had lunch down the street. The customer service is pretty great here, they are super accommodating. That being said, this is in downtown WC, so they get a lot of business and this might make them rush the jobs they do a little. I got a gel mani + regular pedi for $55. Hasn't even been a week yet, and a few of my nails are already chipping. I'm doing my usual school/work/gym routine, and usually a gel job will last me at least 2 weeks. Kind of bummed since I'm about to go on a mini-vacay girls weekend tomorrow. The service itself was above average, especially the pedicure. I didn't get his name, but he gave an excellent foot massage. They also use an orange looking scrub which felt pretty refreshing. However, I'm not sure if I would return, as I have my other go-to's in WC. read more
