Everything was good. Quick service and a smile. And open on Sunday for those of us who are busy on weekdays.

Terrible customer service. Rude and dismissive. We stopped in for pedicures for myself, my daughter and my granddaughter for her first time. There are lots of ways to say we are to busy, but when the salon is completely empty it is rude to just say we don't have time for you. So we won't be back. I hope they work on customer service. read more

The lady that did my nails nicked my cuticle pretty significantly. She did it twice. I wasn't happy but I continued with the process. I even tipped her $30 because I also work in the service industry and I appreciate a good tip. I regret that. A few weeks later I woke up with a painful finger. The sore had healed but unseen infection in the nail bed from a careless tech concerned with speed rather than safety left me in excruciating pain. The next six weeks, countless trips to the ER, three rounds of antibiotics and narcotic pain pills and now the nail has fallen off. Be ware. I will never ever use these services again especially from this establishment. I called and tried to talk to the owner and was met with rudeness and never ever given a call back. DO NOT USE THIS PLACE read more

I went yesterday and Linda was throwing off anger and negativity, never smiled, kept looking out the open door and then the pedicure began. She hurt me not once but twice on the same big toe where she had cut the corners of the nail and now I'll be in excruciating pain when it begins to grow out. The second time she went in on that nail I said NO. Her response, oh we don't do that here. ?? I asked her if she was ok and seemed very down and unhappy. Its just a bad day, she replied. The place was empty of customers and seriously I wanted out of there with this hostile oozing human. The same big toe she hurt now has a terrible polish job. WTH? I've been there before and Sandy was always nice did a good job, friendly and I've given her a huge tip in the past. I am angry about this. read more

Gel extension gone bad after 1-week. Workmanship was meh. But after 1-week, one nail fell off, another close to falling off and the 3rd chipped at the top near the cuticle. $65 down the drain. read more

These people are hella rude. Have been here twice to give it a chance and the lady always looks at us up and down when we walk in. Then acts like she's doing us a favor to do our nails. I wanna tell her, you know we're paying you for this right? The energy is very very bad here. The man is nice, it's just that lady. I'm assuming it's his wife. Nails are decent enough but don't recommend. read more

It was my first time coming here for a last minute mani and pedi before my flight. Mary and Sandy were so kind and made me feel welcomed. They did an amazing job in a reasonable amount of time. My index finger nail was broken she somehow managed to save it and made it unnoticeable. The pricing was very reasonable and the gel has lasted longer than most other nail salon gels. Sandy was so kind, she offered me a banana after finishing my pedicure. They also have the best massage chair I've ever sat in! Their environment is clean and bright. I hope to have them both next time I come! read more

There customer service was so rude. I called to ask if they had any walk-ins available, and the lady said tomorrow as in the next day, so the next day I call back and ask for the walk-in for a simple spa pedicure, and she says no. We're busy now and hangs up on me while I was trying to ask if I could make an appointment. It was horrifying rude for someone who is new to the area. I just wanted to find somewhere where I can get my pedicure done, but will definitely not be calling back. read more

I have never encountered such rude and insulting nail salon people. The man actually told me to 'get out' because I didn't like his electric handheld file..because it was getting too hot and was burning my nail bed. Fortunately, the pedicure lady finished doing my toes. Then I had to plead with Mary to finish my nails. Apparently, they are limited on how to service the client. Bad energy, bad manners, poor service. Never going back. I've been traumatized. read more

Definitely felt rushed, they slimmed on basic details of a mani. They almost cut my cuticles dry without soaking or at least putting cuticle oil on. The gentleman was especially rude, and rough with my mani. This place is around the corner from my house and I forgot why I stopped going there, until I went today. Not for me, prefer TD nails at the collection. read more

I was a walk in and was told to come back in 5 hours. Found someone that honors Their signs for welcoming walk-ins. Sorry I live across town (quite a distance actually) so could not return. read more

Yeah... I am guy and... yep! I am a straight guy who is a fan of pedicures! Sam and his team are absolutely fantastic! They are on the other side of town and very much work the drive. They put great care into what they do and they do amazing work!! You also feel very welcome there and they will take super good care of you! Sam - truly - you and your team are awesome! Keep up the great work and stay open as long as you can. You are an amazing business! read more

I've been here several times. They are fairly close and have good prices. I like how the guy does the nails the best. He is very experienced and knows how to do them well. It would be nice if they more options to choose for the gel mani/pedi. read more

I've been here twice now. The first time I brought my nine year old daughter for a pedicure. My pedicure was great. It looked and felt great and the callous remover was awesome. The price list was good too. My daughter got a polish change on hands and nails even though she wanted a full pedicure but they "didn't understand" and then "ran out of time" after doing her nails. She was disappointed to say the least. But her nails did look cute. Somehow our total came out to over $70!!! (Which I totally forgot until typing this). But one pedicure for me and a polish change for her in hands and feet should not have been that much...not even close. Had I thought about it I would have fought harder but I thought I would eat it and not come back. However... my feet felt and looked so good lol I honestly forgot. Fast forward months later when I needed an appointment on a Sunday so I called and made one for a gel fill on acrylics and a pedicure. Cost was $56. Ok I can handle that. The guy that does the pedicure is funny and friendly and makes conversation. His wife who does acrylics is not. She doesn't say anything at all and only speaks to her coworkers in her own language (not going to guess which one). She did take a lot of time to do my nails and I like the shape so I stopped paying attention while she was painting them which was my fault. See sloppy results in pictures below. I have been waiting for WEEKS for a fill because I was on vacation and was so excited to get this done and now I have this set. You can see that the nail beds leaked and she cured them anyway and that she didn't cap all my nails in paint and cured them anyway. Either cap them or don't, but don't have it spill over and then cap them. That's sloppy. I can't give a one star because I really like the guy. But sadly I don't think I will be back. *update and FYI* They dremmel EVERYTHING. toenails, fingernails, acrylics, real nails. Everything. And they can be a little excessive and heavy handed with it so it gets hot and hurts but they will slow or change heads if you ask. However, my middle finger nail hurts/aches, and is crazy sensitive to pressure right now so I think they may have dremmeled it too low. Also, they don't use liners in their pedicure bowls if that makes a difference to anyone. Some tools come out of sterilized packages and some don't. I couldn't honestly tell which is which when they were using them so I couldn't tell you. MY FINGER HURTS! AHHHHH read more

Took a chance on Saturday afternoon and I totally lucked out. I was able to get a pedicure without an appointment. The last few times I tried they were busy so I was pleasantly surprised. I get a few pedicures a year so it's always a treat. It was very good overall, price and quality for sure. My feet are beat up due to being barefoot or in flops all the time. The chairs were alright, they did the trick. They had an alright amount of colors, I wish they would have had some more sparkly unique ones. Overall I am happy and will be going back for sure! read more

Sooo.. I went back for a gel mani &pedi. Positives: in quick, great price, perfect lemon lime color, clean shop, the guy that did my mani was super nice and funny, my pedi lady was FIRE...AGAIN!! Yessssss! Negatives: my gel mani could have been better.. I went in last Friday and I already have polish coming off on one (started peeling on the 3rd day and tomorrow will be 1 week) , my pinky nail is unevenly shaped and the polish needs to be cleaned so I dont have polish riding up against the cuticle.. I figure my overall review for this place is a 4.5.. read more

I was a walk-in, and immediately I was helped! I loved the mint mask and the gel mani/pedi. Best service ever!

I'm a firm believer in second (even third and fourth) chances. We all have bad days! But, every time I have been here they have been so rude. You walk in the door and there's a heavy sigh, as if they were to say "Dang! We have a customer!! Why??". - I told myself the last time that I went there that I'd never go back. Well, I was limited on time yesterday so had little choice. Surprise! It sucked again. From the attitude to the experience and the final result...sucked! Zero stars! And, expensive! read more

Staff was friendly upon walking in, this was my first time here. I came as a walk in and there was no wait. Staff was patient when it came to picking a nail color. I got a pedicure and gel color for my nails and I'm happy with it will be coming back next time I do laundry. read more

Rude will never return again, older lady incredibly rude zero customer service and one ring of nail colors to choose from. Go elsewhere

I never get my nails done. At 25, this is my third time going to a nail salon. I've gone here twice now. I got gel colors on my natural nails that they shaped. The first few weeks I had dark purple. I now have a dark teal color. At work I constantly get compliments on my nails. The color choices are great. While there, they are quick and do a great job. I may end up getting my nails done every few weeks now. Pricing is great as well. Initial shape and color was $18 before tip and the second trip, which included removing the last color, cuticle removal, and repainting of gel color for $25 before tip. read more

Found this place on Yelp while desperately searching for an affordable place to get a gel manicure in Ventura that was open on a Sunday and didn't require an appointment. Elegant Nails delivered.

Not even a smile when I entered. Asked if they had time for acrylics and a pedicure on a Friday at 10:45 am and she said no. So I'm going somewhere else. Oh well won't be going back. In reply to your reply: I understand when your schedule is full but a smile goes a long way. The woman that "helped" me was very rude. Just letting you know for future reference. Thank you. read more

I just tried this place and I'm torn about how I feel about my experience. I will say the place is clean. But little variety of colors to choose from. I had my nails done about a week ago somewhere else and was not happy with color design I picked or the shape they looked crooked. So I went to this place for first time to see if they could fix. So I told them it was dip powder and gel polish I walked in with. I asked what it cost to do dip powder fill and got no clear answer. The man said he didn't think I needed fill but wasn't sure. He started taking gel off and then let some other associate take over. She filed all down but did no fill and then I asked for a grey color and I had pics of designs I wanted painted on top of grey. She did the whole thing pretty good work. What I was not happy about is the price at end. It was 38 for basically a file and color change since they said I didn't need a fill. I think that's pretty pricey since I didn't even get a fill. And when I asked how much a fill was she couldn't give me a clear answer. First she said 40 then she said up to 50 depends on how long and shape. When I asked to see service price list the dip powder price wasn't even listed. I asked to speak with manager and was told he left. I explained how I don't know what service Im paying for and if it's 38 for file and color change. I might as well of paid two dollars more to get fill. I expressed how it's not right to make up price as they go. That I should know what I'm getting when I'm paying. She didn't seem to care. And what's worse she seemed annoyed I was asking. I also had pedicure I paid 32 for. The work wasn't bad but shady when it comes to prices. Won't be going back cuz of that. read more

I got a gel manicure and regular pedicure. The place was extremely clean and hygienic. They're efficient and kind. Would come again.

Hey ladies, don't come to this place! The Nail Lady that sits in the front is so unprofessional and rude. As soon as u walk in she is so forced to even help you. She mistreated my cousin and I. She gives you attitude and is just flat out rude! While she was doing the nails she would demand and ask not nice at all. We were gonna pay and when it was time to charge. My cousin wanted to know why she was charging her a certain amount and she wOuld not tell her, ( she rolls her eyes)and doesn't show any Professionalism whatsoever. I had already paid but was waiting for my cousin and the phone Rang and she seriously told us to be quite and put her little finger towards my face. Absolutely Rude and Immature. We were in such disbelief that we cannot believe. We didn't just walk out of there as soon as we walked in. Horrible, horrible Service. And all the manager said was it was a "misunderstandment" How in the world do you say that's a Misunderstanding?? She's on the first row, when you enter and the table on the right closer to the spa chairs. DONT COME TO THIS Place where they disrespect you!!!! read more

I usually only get my nails done in Santa Barbara, but I decided to try out Ventura's nail salons since they're so reasonably priced and I was NOT disappointed.

I will be coming here again, thank you! read more

It's interesting that they are posting to say something to a manager when your not happy with the treatment or quality of work provided. But I did and was met with even more rudeness. Do not go here. They are behind in nail trends and if Mary is in a bad mood you will know. Poor lady she needs a day off. She was so rude to me I would never go back and I live down the street so it would have been extremely convenient. read more

I was in the area so I walked in 7/28/23 at around 1pm to ask about the price of a gel pedi for my future reference. I walked in and there was only one lady working on someone's toes. I proceeded to ask her the question in a friendly manner. She didn't answer right away, she looked at me up and down with a stank face and what seemed to be forever she finally said something but in a REALLY low voice that I didn't even hear her. I asked her what she said and she mumbled in a very low voice. It's like if she was doing it on purpose. I asked her again and she said 45 but still in a very low voice mumbling I barely heard what she said. After that I just walked out. Obviously this lady doesn't care about her customers and doesn't care if she's being rude. I wouldn't recommend this place. I should've read the other reviews before even thinking of coming in here. What they say is right ! Straight up rude ! I will be taking my money elsewhere!!! read more
