Came here for the first time to try it out and will not be back.I got a pedicure and the lady that was doing my pedicure cut me several times when she was cleaning my toes and the last straw was when she cut me really bad on my big toe and mad me bleed all and didn't even apologize all she tried to do was play it off and act like nothing happened so I ask her to stop and the lady in charge I believe is the one who took over and apologized and the only reason I give 2 stars but don't recommend. read more

I stumbled across this spot on instagram. Honestly the drinks caught my attention lol, Im a boba girly the luxury pedicure was amazing. Kim didn't a wonderful job and i can not wait to come see her again in a few weeks. It is connected to a boba spot. While i was getting my pedicure they brought me over a cold green tea and a cup with cold fruit a well. I love that it is open on Sundays because I usually work every other day of the week. I had a great experience. Try it for yourself Plenty of parking. Everyone was friendly read more

I don't even know where to start... my wife comes to this place specifically with VAN. I am very upset that I had to find out that my wife's nail tech VAN had hit our daughter while my wife was using the restroom all because my daughter which is a kid was looking at and touching her jewels. My wife comes out from using the bathroom to finding our daughter shaking and crying. Once my wife asked her what was wrong, she mentioned that VAN had smacked her hand.. mind you us as parents we don't believe is hitting our kids , so what in the world made this VAN lady think it was okay to hit MY kid?!! And for VAN if you're reading this which I'm sure you are, next time let your clients know you're not good with kids. You fkn asshole! read more

I get my nails done literally once or twice a year on special occasions, my birthday or Christmas/New Year and I always go to my girl Van. I show her what I want done and she gets it done and on many occasions, made it better than the original idea and I always leave happy. I hate those thick looking nails but Van makes it look thin and very natural and shaped down evenly. And she's quick! It's almost my birthday in a few days so I am due for another new set and I can't wait to see what she'll do for my birthday nails! Right now, she's only taking appointments so you'll have to text her to set that up. Promise she'll take care of you like she's done for me the last couple of years. Parking might be difficult but that's why appointments is recommended. read more

Her sets always last us with no lifting or breaking. read more

I just have to say, I have been faithful to another nail salon since I moved to San Jose but when they could no longer consistently give me what I want (my nail tech isn't working there currently and the person who did my nails last couldn't gave me square nails when I said coffin) I had to find a new place. I am BEYOND pleased with this nail salon - so much so that I was texting my friends and in-laws about it while I was sitting in one of their chairs. For reference, I did call ahead to book an appointment and was running 10 mins late (I did call to update / let them know) so I didn't mind having to wait a few more minutes when I came in. After all, I was the one running late. Upon sitting in Nancy's chair, I let her know my expectations of my nails and told her how I was so disappointed in how my nails turned out the week before (from a different nail salon). Not only was she able to fix the shape of my nail but she also somehow was able to fix the gradient color change / ombré. The yellow definitely pops out a lot more than when I had originally came in and I absolutely love how my nails look now. Nancy also thinned out the acrylics to my liking, and believe me, when I came in, they were so thick I actually got them stuck in a keyboard prior when I was typing at my computer. Super, super thankful for her speedy and amazing work. Oh, also for reference, there's a boba shop connected to this salon. It's not inside the salon. They share a wall / doorway. You can order boba while you're there and have it brought over to you or you can go into the store and purchase it yourself, before or after your nail appointment. Just a heads up, K3 Nail & Spa is cash only. There is an ATM inside that charges $0.25 to withdraw cash. There's also a Chase bank down the street. read more

Van does good nails but she has a very nasty attitude and she's very ruff, her nail files are always hot when you tell her it's too hot she always get upset as if your saying something wrong her employees are not inviting as soon as you enter they ladies look at you up and down until you state what services you want Van always have screw face never pleasant with customers she feels as if she's great and her customer is less than the ambiance is nice but the customer service is trash and Van does not use new and clean tools on each clients I've asked her before to pls use a new file and she gets upset and saying things like oh what's wrong with you don't tell me I'm the best this last encounter was finally for me I will not return nor do I recommend the vibe is totally off here their all about money and treat you bad read more

Horrible experience, they make lots of disgusting comments about the customers in Vietnamese. The don't clean the tools after each single used. The nails are ok but not worthy of. read more

Finally ... reunited with my Fave and only Nail Tech Van.... haven't had my nails done since the Pandemic started and missed my fancy Long Nayulls!!! Definitely come here if you want beautifully designed nails and a clean atmosphere. This location is attached to a Boba shop so enjoy a drink and relax ... totally worth the wait .

Self car day: made an appointment with Van to get our nails done. We didn't wait too long until it was our turn. Van is skilled at picking the color that matches the picture of the nails you show her. One look at the picture and she's already on it. She did it quick and flawless, we would definitely go back and make an appointment with her again. Big tip: make an appointment ahead of time so you don't have to wait for hours until it's your turn because people who makes appointments get priority (-: read more

Van is personable and so be are the other ladies. Out of the times I've been here, My pedicures have always been great. Here are photos of the times I went. The 3rd time, I went in for just a polish change on my nails and a polish change on my feet. I specifically wanted to use the DND brand this time because im more familiar with their products....I was short on time and only needed a polish change due to the orange polish peeling twice. I asked Van why did she think that my nails were peeling, because I had never had that experience before and she said she didn't really know but she was going to contact the nail polish distributor and let them know that this is an ongoing problem with their product. That kind of made me feel like if you knew that this is something that happens with this particular product, Why would you keep putting it on people? The inconvenience of having to come back was irritating This review is just for a heads up. read more

Started my journey to grow out my own nails with an acrylic over lay. Now to start I've gone to the same nail tech for the last 9 years but I've been wanting to try somewhere (not for any particular reason) so started looking in my area and came across the cutest place the staff is great and so welcoming I went on a Saturday early afternoon and I was seated right away didn't even have to wait . They gave me a complimentary, cute fruity drink which was super tasty. This photo is of my second set after going here and I must say I am super satisfied. The nail tech handled with care and was so sweet and very talkative. My first set here lasted me about three weeks. This is my second set, and I walked out even more satisfied than the first because I can actually see my nail growth. I will definitely be going back once I'm ready for a new color ! read more

Van is very rude, made appointments with her and still have to wait. Sometimes walks away in the middle of doing your nails to do somebody else's. Gave my Mom attitude in front of other clients. Not professional at all. We're done going to this "lady". read more

The women here work very quickly; even at busy times and do all their work with great quality, always paying attention to detail. Appointments are always your best option for service, but when there isn't a large amount of customers in shop, they will generally accept on the spot walk-ins. read more

Van is Always super fast and does them super cute and can do any nail design I ask for. Shape is always on point. Definitely recommend

First time I've been here. Everyone was very nice. I was disappointed in a couple of things. When I was getting my pedicure the timer was started before the actual massage. As soon as my massage started I started to time it. And it was only 3 mins when it was supposed to be 6. When I moved over to get my nails done I was talked into getting dipped Instead of gel? I don't know much about either. But it cost $60 but did not include a massage or trimming of skin around the nail / cuticles. A regular mani would be cheaper. But we'll see how they look in 2 weeks. Not till I left did I realize there were a few issues with my nails. I was in a hurry to leave for an event. I will give this place another try. I would feel more relaxed if they played music instead of the TV. Other then that I enjoyed my experience. read more

There's no nail tech I trust more. I've been to countless nail salons and no tech can match Van. She's honestly like family and won't hesitate to tell me what looks good and what won't I trust her judgment. There's quality in the work she does and she takes pride in her work. There's no where else I'd go. read more

Came in today with no appointment, only a 15 min wait! New location with beautiful interior. Walked in and was greeted from the nice ladies. I believe the lady who did my nails was Van. She did a wonderful job on my nails at first but when I left the shop I noticed she missed a spot on my pinky finger. My set came out to be $90. I don't know if thats the average price for this set but it was a bit pricey. I wouldnt come back. They take venmo or cash. ATM is available inside. read more

I have been going to Van for more than 4 years and she never disappoints. She was at the milpitas location and had to follow her to the new alma location. I give her ideas of what I want and she gives recommendations for what she thinks I would like. I recommended her to family and friends and are all also now going to her now. This new location is spacious that has a lot of seats for those who are waiting. It also has a boba bar that is perfect for those who are waiting. Very pleased with this new location and will continue to go for new sets of nails and boba! read more

I heard a lot of good things about Van so I decided to make an appointment with her. The nails look fine but nothing special. A few of the acrylics were filed crooked but I can look past that. The worst part was that she cut me twice. She was really rushing at the end when she cleaned my cuticles & she cut a small piece off the side of my finger and also made my cuticle area bleed. I also noticed she did not switch out or sanitize her tools for the client after me so that was a little concerning, especially since I just bled in them! Overall, not a great experience. Was expecting a lot since people highly recommended her and it ended up being disappointing. read more

Will not be coming back.. I asked for gel and the lady got mad at me because she thought I wanted powder. She cut my already long nails and didn't even file them straight. She was pissed the whole time and left me with this. She didn't even apologize. I was really nice the entire time and still left a tip but left unhappy with the job and service. read more

I got an acrylic set done by Van, and my nails were the best nails I've gotten. I'm giving a 3 star rating because the process definitely seemed like she was rushing to get me in and out. There was no nail prep prior to putting on the fake nail or acrylic. When I'm paying a lot of money for nails, I'm expecting a little more care! Besides that, Van was very sweet and did an amazing job on my nails. read more

Took us in last minute when they were closing for 2 full sets and pedicure. Such a cute vibe brought us fruit and tea super relaxing. Nails came out cute too. Definitely gonna come back read more
