Beware of extra charges when paying for nail service. I had dip powder SNS done on my natural nails. I was charged for the service plus medium length nails charge of $5 , 3% price increase surcharge and a tip. I personally gave her a cash tip. You should ask for a receipt and check it. Unfortunately, I checked my receipt a week later when I was going through my wallet. Total rip off! read more

Absolutely would NOT recommend this place. I brought my neighbor in who is disabled, and they treated her like trash. They refused to do her toes because she couldnt get into the spa chair. She has a disease that heavily affects her balance, and is in a wheelchair with a broken leg. I had to suggest using a chair from the waiting area, and woman " helping" was not happy about it. My neighbor wanted the gel taken off, and toes painted. Nothing more. The woman took her gel off her toes with so much hate in her face.They barely wanted to do her acrylics. I understand you have the right to refuse service, but not taking someone because they can't get into a seat is BS. Instead of accommodations for a disabled woman they made her feel horrible. The 1 star is too much. read more

I think they did a pretty good Job on my nails. Fair warning I'm hard to please haha! I mean I would of liked my toes to be more square and maybe it's the color I picked? But I got this color for thanksgiving What I loved about the place was it was super clean, not packed and I loved all the covid precautions they had. They took your temperature had people spaced out and some clear blockers.It's a newer place but I think I will go back again! I found them on Yelp and I went because they had good reviews and the nails looked good. The ladies were nice as well and the prices seemed about normal. read more

I showed up at 4pm and they close at 5, and told me they could not accommodate me because they close in an hour. It's workers were just sitting around. I can't fairly judge their work but their attitude was not great. You also need proof of vaccination to get in so heads up to the rest of y'all read more

Super friendly and welcoming, it's clean and excellent service. I will definitely come back. I Highly recommend!

A friend of a friend recommended this particular nail spa. The employees were nice however I particularly was disappointed. I like my nails to look natural, unfortunately the gel that was applied was extremely thick. I will not be going back read more

Second time coming to this place. First time I went I was there for 3 hours getting a full set that ended up looking too thick & uncomfortable. Today I went right at opening & there were no customers in there. I was greeted then ignored when the phone rang. Then someone else helped me. I was told they would be able to start on my nails but stop half way for an appointment then finish. I told them nicely I had to get to work afterwards. So one of the ladies responded upset & said fine I'll do them. Then I asked her if she was going to stop half way because if she was I couldn't stay. She got mad & got up and said fine leave & motioned with her hand towards the door for me to leave. I have never been treated like this anywhere. If you can't accommodate a customer at least have good service. Will never be coming back here. read more

I been coming to this boutique I think for two years and never made a review! But the ladies are very nice, very on top of covid friendly which is a plus for me and my family. I usually go with Nancy, she has done full set and regular gel, and dip powder and each time I'm in love. I go with Vivian for pedicure just a super sweet person and the only person I trust for pedicure. Linda is also great for manicure as well. The picture below is Nancy work. I usually make appointments for me, my mom and sister. If they are available they let you go in just wait until someone available. If they don't have availability they will tell you and some people do take it the wrong way but my best advise is make appointments with Nancy or Vivian. I don't have plans on changing boutique especially when I trust them so much. Thank you ladies. read more

Don't waste your time I called in the morning for an appointment they made my appointment at 2 pm I show up on time I waited for 20 minutes and woman showed up after me and they started on her right away I ended up walking out because not only was their customer service nonexistent but all the techs were busy and I'm sure they would have had me waiting much longer I don't know why they even bothered making an appointment if they can't commit to start on time. read more

First time here and unfortunately, my gel manicure started chipping the next day! The manicurist was friendly though.

Honestly I've only ever loved coming to this place, they are sanitary and clean and precise ! Nancy, Vivian and the rest of the staff are amazing read more

This place needs to improve their customer service. The ladies are super rude. I'm sorry but it's not cheap and to still get an attitude from them...no thank you! Not welcoming or helpful at all. It seems that they do a nice job, but the service is horrible. read more

Definitely will not be back. Walked in for a gel manicure and pedicure and walked out feeling completely unwelcome and uncomfortable. Owner asked if I had an appt and I didn't but I was ok with waiting. The whole vibe of the shop changed. The whispers started and I was asked to wait 10 mins. Cool, fine by me. I wait and someone takes me a few mins later and I asked if someone would be doing my manicure at the same time. Blank. Stares. "You wanted a manicure too?" Yesss, that's what I stated when I walked in. More grumbles. And then I get a bunch of nail boards shoved at me. I asked if they had the OPI color I used or something similar and they flat out told me they don't have any OPI gel colors. Really? Cause I'm looking at WALL full of OPI gel colors. At this point, I'm a little annoyed, getting very unfriendly vibes, and now I have to leave. When the nicest lady finished my pedicure I walk over to the wall and find not one, not two but a TON of OPI gel colors. I asked the owner about all the gel colors I'm looking at and her response couldn't have been more flat, "oh we just don't have the color you wanted." When I asked what time they closed and if I could come back for a manicure. The flippant response? "Oh, we close at 7pm but we'll be pretty busy until then." Don't worry I won't be back. I've grown up in this city and I've had the chance to move back and see how it has grown and changed. I'm hoping the other local retailers are far more welcoming than Elite Nail Spa. read more

So I'm usually super nervous about getting my toes done because of my hyper sensitivity on my nail beds but for the 1st time ever, there was no pain! So gentle and professional and I'm super happy with the result. Very clean and calming environment. Thank you Elisa and staff read more

Unless you want to be disrespected I don't recommend this spot. I decided to treat my girlfriend to a set and all she got out of it was yelling from her technician. She was conflicted on what design to get and Nancy, the owner, rudely proceeded to finish her set without any input on what she wanted. My girlfriend then stopped her and Nancy then looked at her and said "WHY DON'T YOU KNOW WHAT YOU WANT???" Nancy then looked over at her friend and said "at least she knows what she wants".. it was honestly just unnecessary and flat out rude when we are paying for service (& on top of that my gf has been recommending so many people to her salon for years). 0/5. read more

AWFUL! This has been one of the worst experiences getting my nails done like ever lol. I was excited to try this spot because of the reviews. This was my first time coming here. I told the older lady with the bob cut that I want clear square/straight tips and she told me no and she didn't have them. she proceeded to glue on the curved white tips and told me she would make them straight, I gave her the benefit of the doubt and hated how they looked afterward so I told her they weren't straight and then she pulls out the clear tips and tells me she will put them on but they're $5 more. Like why lie that you don't have them??? I told her exactly how I wanted my nails and she straight up said no and proceeded to do them her own way and even lied to me about not having the clear tips. I just asked her to stop with the polish once I saw how streaky it was coming out. Such a rushed job and I cried afterward. Not worth it. I will never come here again. read more

Poor Serivce! The first time I did my nails there it was nicely done, the new time I did my nails there I went to get a fill and stones added on. The lady that did my nails the first time wasn't there so I ended up with a new lady. As she was doing my nails I noticed she was not sure how to add the stones, she ended up making a mess of my nail with gel glue and destroying the look of the nails. I complained to her that it was done poorly and she too can see it and she told me she's not used to adding stones. She then apologized and told me not to pay because I wasn't happy and it was so obvious to the naked eye. I later made an appointment after a few days when I had time to get the nails fixed. I went there on my appointment date and time and as soon as I got there the language changed and they asked me if I had an appointment. I said yes and they checked the schedule and saw they put my name down wrongly. She told me to wait and after a couple minutes of waiting she comes to me and tells me that they will not do my nails because I wasn't happy the last time. I wasn't happy for a valid reason, so valid that I was asked not to pay. I held no grudges towards them and still went back there yet I feel I have been blacklisted due to no fault of my own. I find it very unfair and unprofessional. So before anyone goes there make sure you leave happy of they won't like you back in. read more

This was my second time there. The work is ok, nothing phenomenal, but it gets the job done. My issue is the service. No one in this shop looks like they want to be there. I went for a mani/pedi and I got several looks of disdain. Any request was met with annoyance. It was a fairly disappointing experience. read more

DO NOT COME HERE! I called to ask if I can go in for a wax they said yes they have time and to go in. When I arrived they said they never told me to go in. ANOTHER time I called and made an appointment for mani/pedi they specifically said to go in at 10:30 for my appointment when I arrived they said they never told me 10:30 and I was late and I had to leave. They are so rude and unprofessional maybe they need to buy an appointment calendar. Don't waste your time here there's plenty of nice professional places in the area. read more

HORRIBLE service! Service people were rude. They said they called for my service never got a missed call. Drove from Hollywood to come here because a good friend said she went here & wasted my time... I wouldn't not recommend. Take your time and read the one star reviews from this place - there's a clear reason as to why they have many one star reviews. read more

if i can give 0 stars i would. horrible horrible horrible. couldn't even do a simple french tip i wish i wouldve got her name. anyways don't even waste your money here read more

The walk-in policy is not really applicable here. They'll just tell you they're busy.

Great service! Nancy did my nails and they came out great and lasted me a long time. I would recommend since it's a very clean nail salon that also takes its time to take care of their customers. read more

Not sure why this place has such good reviews. I was not impressed whatsoever. Where do I even start? So small & stations squeezed together that there is no place to even put your purse. Didn't look so clean either. I paid extra to get their upgraded services & they were not worth the money. Felt so rushed. Nail polish was left all clumpy. Massage is nothing more than an oil & lotion rub. Ladies are constantly rushing, rough & have no customer service charm. I could tell its all about the money. read more
