    Brand new red full set with almond shape. Gorgeous.
    Alexandra S.

    I've NEVER "double reviewed" before! But my goodness this nail salon is about as good as it gets. I was there for many hours getting several treatments (UV refill, gel pedicure, eyebrows) and saw them take every single walk in that arrived (even on a busy Saturday). I saw everything from male manicures, nails for two sweet little girls, gorgeous extension work, nail designs -- and every time it was done with speed and professionalism and cleanliness. My own nails have never looked better -- I got a color-tip French manicure. Go! PS. Hot tip-- they have a loyalty card! 1 point per dollar spent. If you pay in cash it is 2 points per dollar spent. It adds up quickly to free services.

    Amanda is theeeee best. Place: clean as hell. Place is bright, open, and clean. What I appreciated the most was that all their instruments were in sanitary bags which I've never seen at a nail salon before. Booking appointment: walk ins are definitely welcome. Majority of people who came in after me were walks in. I would still call ahead and recommend booking before 5 pm on weekdays. Not sure about weekends. While I was getting my nails done they experienced a big rush around 5:30 pm so you might have to wait 30 minutes if you come in during the busy hours. Nails: I called same day for an appointment at 5 and finished around 6:40 for a UV Gel and French tip design. It was my first time doing UV Gel so my fingertips were not happy under the light. But Amanda was super kind and layered the application so my nails didn't feel like they were going to burn off. She nailed the design (l o l) and I love how they feel. She was also so sweet! I was sadly visiting but if I lived there, I would become a regular easily. I also saw other people work who have been mentioned before Tina and Niki who both looked to be doing great jobs. Next time I visit will definitely be stopping by to see Amanda.

    Wanted s "pink lemonade" design and was very happy with the results!

    Friendly, professional and fast. This place is everything I was hoping it would be. I was looking to do a fun summer nail design, and ViKi did not disappoint! Not only did she do just what I asked for, she did it quickly and efficiently. All in a bright, clean and inviting space.

    Ashley did an amazing job!

    Ashley did a fantastic job! She took her time and didn't rush. I always appreciate nail techs who pay attention to detail

    Gel X- Multi-Color French
    Nabeela A.

    First time client here as it was recommended by my sister. My appointment was at 2:30pm for a gel pedicure (done by Tina) and recommended by the technician to do gel x based on the design I showed her. I arrived there around 2:20ish and I was done by 5:45ish. When it comes to nails, especially if you want designs, I understand you need to give it time... unfortunately, my pedicure took a little over an hour. But WOW my nails... Amanda did an amazing job. I always hesitate to show designs to the technician as I feel it never meets your full satisfaction. However, Amanda did wonders on my nails, she did it so effortlessly. The salon overall is great very clean, spacious and everyone is very friendly.

    They are nothing but kind and gracious! They do a lovely job with nails and a fantastic job with massages. I always feel so relaxed afterwards. I take my Maltese with me everytime and there hasn't been an issue with it. Daisy loves coming in and seeing her human friends. The place is really clean and organized as well. As a Christian, I'm so happy to see they have a prayer box, what a beautiful and thoughtful touch!

    My new go-to salon thanks to Amanda's great work. Highly recommend for the quality and value. They just opened this summer so everything is very clean too.

I will definitely be trekking up from Murray Hill in the future to see her for my nails. It's a small space but very cozy. I was given a choice of hot teas while I waited. I was able to get a same day appointment and when she was running late, Paru called me to be cognizant of my time rather than not giving me a heads up. She clearly has a cult-following. Everybody there was clearly a regular. I've gone to places before as a new customer and felt less important than the regulars ... I felt just as special as everybody else there so that was really very lovely. She took her time picking out a color with me and doing my nails. I got a shellac manicure.. its coming up on two weeks now and I don't have any lifting edges which is normally what happens so I am very happy. They are cash or Venmo only!

Absolutely not. A regular pedicure is $48 and a gel pedicure increases to $78. There is absolutely nothing about the pedicure I received that warrants a $30 increase. They are transparent about their pricing. Not a justification for it, though. I called before I went, as I'm on the hunt for a new local salon. I asked if they do acrylic and was told yes with gel. It must've been a language barrier issue because they do not do acrylic- just UV gel for $188. I've never had this done before and i didn't feel adventurous for such a steep cost. The dry skin on my heels wasn't even fully removed during my pedicure. I told the nail tech and she didn't say or do anything. They also did not have matching dip powder colors to the gel polish, which is shocking. I had to settle for white on my feet even though I really wanted my hands and feet to match. Finally, during my $105 dip powder with extensions manicure, the nail technician repeatedly checked her phone and stepped away a few times. They also dip your fingers directly into the powder. I see the owner stated in a previous review that they've done this for 10+ years, but that doesn't make it sanitary. Finally, there is no AC on and the doors are wide open. It may be done for ventilation, however it's summer. There has to be alternative methods available that also allow AC. I do not mind paying when the service aligns with what I receive. This wasn't the case and there are other comparable nail salons out there. I likely wouldn't return.

I am so happy she opened another location, as it is closer to work and home for me (…read moreeven though I'm willing to take two trains and travel an hour to get my nails done by her). When I started getting my nails done, they were always short and so brittle that they would never grow, and my cuticles were terrible. As I got bored with the single color, I asked for an ombre at a random chop shop one day, which was a BIG mistake. Please see the first two pictures. I thought to myself that I might not be able to find someone to do nail designs until I saw my best friend's nails and was introduced to Miki. After going to Miki, my nails became so strong and long, and people are always surprised when I tell them they are my natural nails, with no extensions or anything over them. Miki brought all my nail design visions to life. My question wasn't if she could do it but which five nail designs I wanted to pick that day. She did my nails for my engagement, bridal, wedding, and baby shower, and I would not trust anyone else to do it for all my special occasions. I highly recommend her and trust me; you will not be disappointed.
