I used to go here, but it's been over a year. The ladies in there usually give me the BEST PEDICURE and the way they shape my toe nails are immaculate! One time last year I went and they were closed so I went to a place right around the corner, awful experience. Every time I go there, like today it's closed even though Google says it's open. I ended up ordering supplies from Amazon. I'm so scared to go anywhere else, I don't see any immaculate work in LA. This place does such good nail designs too, I've seen the other customers and their designs were always read more

I usually go to nail salons for regular, non-gel pedicures. That said, Leo is my DTLA nail salon of choice. The staff is always friendly, and the service is remarkably thorough. Their prices are reasonable, and they don't pressure you with the upsell, which I appreciate so so much. I've tried other salons nearby and have always returned to Leo. read more

Leo's nails bar has never let me down. I always come in. They're always friendly two of the nicest ladies working there. I read an earlier review about a man cutting a lady while doing her nails I've never noticed a man working there but not to say that one doesn't but they always have lovely service so I'll give them a five star rating and the vibe is wonderful. The location is awful but the vibe is great. They're located in downtown Los Angeles across the street from a great little eatery, gator boys. read more

My husband and I go here often. We usually just walk in on a Saturday morning and they are very accommodating. I love the service here!

Ladies! ladies! ladies! Gentlemen! I tell you, "Leo Nail Bar" is the nail shop you want to be at. Kathy does my manicure and also she does nails.Van does my pedicure and if you have ingrown toenails trust and believe me, she will get them out. These ladies are awesome!!! I used to go to "Nail Envy" on 5th & Broadway DTLA but they closed their shop. if you are looking for a new nail shop this will be your new spot. You will leave here feeling amazing they do excellent work, good customer service and take their time. The shop is clean, and the price for manicure & pedicure gel is 70$ actually I'm paying five dollars less than I was when I went to "Nail Envy" so please check them out you will be so happy that you did. read more

I come here for Kathy she is very sweet and has done my nails a couple times. I will definitely keep coming here because of her. She does a great job and is very sweet and friendly. I do gel X and always get compliments on my nails. read more

Found this place through a quick Yelp search and went in not really knowing what to expect. I liked that I was welcomed and sat right away. Tina got her supplies out quickly and asked me what I wanted and got to work! She was so patient and dedicated to her work I really liked that she took her time with all the details and didn't rush on my nails. She came up with this sage green marble look and I loved it and have got so many compliments! The nails ended up lasting me about 4 weeks with hardly any lifting or chipping. I definitely recommend Tina as a nail artist. read more

Sad place! Two employees there. I suspect it's bc they are in such a dangerous area and have to deal with the homeless harassment many people get discouraged to bo go there or even work there. They have one nail tech essentially however the next day the nails started falling off my friend the very same day. I did return and had it fixed they did not charge me, but within a day or so I was down to about five nails. It's probably the quality of the products used. read more

I came here once two months ago because it was next to my barbershop and got a basic mens manicure and pedicure it was $90. More than my place in WeHo but people can charge what they want for their work I paid it and kept it moving Today I made an appointment for manicure only. 5:45 I arrive when I walk in a girl leaves and asks to reschedule. Im sitting there until 6:28 they close at 6:30 and whoever Ann is was the one about to do the manicure huffing and puffing like I did some shit by being on time when she took me to the table to get it done. I just got up and left. Don't pay for unprofessional rushed work. Simple read more

I can't seem to find a good nail salon in dtla! Came here cause I live across the street and had an event. A drill bit was used super harshly when thinning out my acrylics and I could feel pain in my natural nail bed that it had me flinching and has made my fingers swollen. Kept using the nail filer on my skin which hurt too. My cuticles were never cut or cleaned so doesn't look very neat. Overall, my nail design is super messy and didn't coat the nail completely and looks chipped. Very disappointed with this salon. I was charged $100 and tipped $25. Update: Got a message to fix my nails or get a refund. I called the salon before dropping by and was told no one is a manager when asking for a manager name and to call back later. Very confused with how this salon runs. Definitely think twice before coming in to get your nails done! read more

DO NOT COME HERE or YOU WILL BE WAISTING YOUR TIME.. there are plenty of better places close by .. low QUALITY AND MONEY HUNGRY! I have been coming here for a year and the one time I asked to fix my nail I was charged full price. I had already came multiple times to fix my nails in 2 weeks because the quality of dip and acrylic kept CRACKING in the corners. I continue to pay tips and pay for fixes and they continue to want to charge full price. I came in and was ignored and barely wanted to hear what I had to say. Coming between my time off remote work and it's a waist of my time. read more

Fast service as a walk in close to closing time. Did really nice gel polish change for me. My friend just had regular nail polish change and a flower on 2 nails. Great price for quality . Just wanted to wash my hands between filing and polish,,had gritty powder all on hands. I'm hope it was maybe just an oversight due to time or whatever. Overall, friendly, good price, great quality. Appreciated it since I was waiting for daughter to get out of Chris Brown concert! Thank you ladies ! read more

I came to this shop for my first time last Saturday and was pleasantly surprised at the amount of color options and gems/accessories they had for your nails!!

It was easy for me to call and make a same-day appointment. My gel manicure with overlay and acrylic tips looks great! Sydney did a wonderful job! However, someone else did my pedicure... I'm not sure of her name but it wasn't Sydney. She did a great job except for my big toe on my right foot. She took off too much skin with some plier looking tool and by the time I got home, I was bleeding around the perimeter of my big toenail. Not cool. This place is great for manicures. Beware of who does your pedicure though. Also, I was originally charged $150 for a gel manicure with overlay, acrylic tips, and two accent nails and a gel pedicure. Not sure if that's a reasonable price since I haven't gotten my nails done in a really long time. I ended up paying $110 with a first-time customer discount. Just a heads up: tell them everything you want up-front so you aren't surprised when you get to the register. read more

I came to this nail salon and got a full set with a pedicure, I also got acrylic on one toe because of an unfortunate chipping accident lol. They did a job good enough to make me want to go back for a fill 2 weeks later and unfortunately I started to notice discolouration in 2 of my nails and the toe that I got acrylic on. I asked them to use new nail tools on my hands and feet and they assured me they are, but it was very clear they did not. I don't recommend this nail salon especially if you plan on getting fills every 2 weeks, you'll start to notice discolouration in your nails as if your nail was bruised! I'm extremely disappointed in places like this. Whole sale nail filers are about 10 cents a piece, maybe less and they continue to do our nails with used tools. Very unprofessional. read more

Nails were nails service was great, definitely was not expecting to walk out paying as much as I did. I walked out paying $236 for a mani and pedi. Cute but pricey for me. The price listed on the menu total came out to 105, I did expect to pay a few dollars extra because I had one broken nail and had to get my big toes filled but was not expecting to pay 100 more. read more

I just tried to get my nails done, customer service is terrible the owner was very rude. I was looking at nail colors and he took the bin to give to some other lady even though I was clearly looking at them. He did t say excuse me or anything. He keep repeating "thank you like he didn't know English. Racism at its finest! I'm so sweet and in the best mood that I just walked out with a smile. Treat all your customers with respect. Maybe your shop wouldn't be empty of you respected your customers. Thanks for showing me why I don't want to spend my money here. read more

Great service! Took my sister and I in for an appointment. I had previous mail design from two weeks ago and Quyen was great at taking out old design and sizing my nails for new gel-x.

Although it's not busy the wait time is somewhat long due to lack of staff. Everyone was really nice and salon was very clean but I was not impressed with my nails. I received a gel pedicure and a full acrylic set and paid about $170 (Very Pricey for mediocre nails). My nail design was very unfinished and lumpy and the acrylic used had glitter in it which i did not like. My nail tech spent most of her time arguing on her phone and I felt she was not focused on my nails . I will not be returning read more

Quality and good customer service has significantly decreased over the past year. I went in today for a regular, no polish manicure and to have my gelx removed. The man doing my nails was about to finish with a ton of gelx still on my nails. I had him continue and there's still gelx on my nails, weren't cleaned underneath and just look dirty overall. Unsatisfied and taking my business elsewhere read more

DO NOT COME HERE STAY AWAY!!!! Worse experience in a nail shop, REASON A: I asked for a simple gel x design and the man working on me was rushing. Didn't clean my nails or even file before putting on gel x. He cut me over and over again in the same place after I told him it hurts. The towels they use leave hair all over your nails. I've been getting my nails Done for years, We all know that leaving Hair on the base coat will result in hair being stuck on the nails. So I kept asking him to fix it before painting the design and he insisted it was fine. He dropped the gel light on my hand and messed up the design. When I asked him to fix it he just tried to hide it and it still was messed up. I was so polite to the point where their carelessness pushed me to ask for a manager. REASON B: When I asked the lady at the front desk if she was a manager she said no, but called over the manager. Then I explained to the manager what happened and she acted as if she couldn't see it. As I was explaining, the same employee lady was taking s**t to me the whole time. SO UNPROFESSIONAL. I washed my hands and showed her again and then she finally agreed to not charge me for the design because it was obviously messed up. But she still charged me $90 for gel x and no design?? Not right! REASON C: They also do NOT follow COVID protocols. Some employees do not wear masks and they also don't enforce customers to wear them!! They were even fake coughing and sneezing as a joke when one of their coworkers sneezed with bo mask on! If you all ( employees ) don't want to believe in this pandemic, have your beliefs but at least respect the health and safety of others!! The way they run their business disgusts me. Avoid this place!! read more

My friends visited me bc I was recently engaged and we were on the hunt for a nail salon in LA. Found this gem by looking at a waitresses nails and immediately asked where she went! My friends and I scheduled an appt for Leo right away. This was the first time ever doing Gel X, never a long nail type, but quickly fell in love! I was blessed with Lena. She took her time figuring out which nail would fit best, she noticed when glue wasn't evenly spread. She truly has a keen eye for detail. Even the picture I showed her to copy, she drew the lines EFFORTLESSLY. The pictures didn't show the thumb design, so I asked her to do anything she wanted. She quickly went for an idea and it worked so well. She asked me multiple times if it was ok, making sure I liked what she did. But wow she really made this nail experience the best I ever had. Lena is so friendly and loves to see you happy. Not only was the experience exceptional but her attention to detail and skill was awesome. Thank you Lena! You may view my other friends nails, just beautiful!! We all loved ours. Other techs did their nails but I can't remember their name :/ This place is UNDERRATED. If you're questioning, just GO.
