I really wanted to gate keep this spot but I had to leave a review so that others can continue to support the business when I'm not in town. I get massages 1-2x every month from Asian places as well as higher end spots like Four Seasons. This review is specifically for Li - I got a 90 mins massage from him in the style that they stand on your back and let me tell you it was beyond incredible I have not had a massage this good in over 6 months. It was way too good and I cannot wait to go back. Massage was a decent price in a simple place where they get the job done. read more

Beware of this massage parlor. They cannot speak a word of English and they massage your private parts, inside your a** and other places. I will grant she had a friendly demeanor, however this parlor is likely doing illegal activity and should be reported. read more

I had a 90-minute, deep tissue massage my back by Michael. . He applied the right amount of pressure and frequency asked how it felt. I have had massages all over the world and this experience and price are ranked within the top three. I highly recommend Li Foot. read more

This is a screenshot from Li Massage's own website. They refused to honor this offer when we went in at 9pm. Instead they charged us $40, and then did a very poor massage. The providers obviously didn't want to be there. Just a bad, weird experience overall read more

I hate to say this or leave this review but as a customer who has been coming here for the past 2 years I have to say that I have finally built up the courage to speak the truth about my last transactions with this business.. #1. As long as I have been coming here I have never been offered the free massage after you have paid for ten massages... I have been here over 25 times.. #2. I always get a 70 minute massage or the 90 minute massage both are fullbody massages including feet. Well the breaking news here is that I never get a feet massage or more than 1 minute spent on the feet.. It's part of what I pay for It's not at the masseuse discretion to do it or not. It say 15 minutes would be spent on the feet..I have NEVER gotten that. When I brought to the attention of the staff and the lady who massaged me, all I got was "I'm sorry " #3. No one ever asks you do you have any areas of concern, they just massage your head, arms and your back in which they spend 80% of your time doing. No upper chest massage and you will be lucky if you get someone to massage legs. Like I said I hate to leave this review but when everything in life is getting so expensive,you want to make sure that you're getting your moneys worth.. We want a good massage just like you expect us to tip you when you're at the counter waiting for it.. I think I will put this place on pause for awhile before going back.. I haven't even getting my money worth. read more

They were not honest with me, and they injured my back and used sheets washed in the alley to cover clients as seen in photos and were not very cleanly during a time where Covid was rampant so no, I would not recommend this massage establishment. read more

See all

The massage was fine but the bedside manner and etiquette needs major work. I really hope the owner reads these reviews and if you are reading this, please reply or message me because I would gladly return if I could trust this would not happen again. To begin, the girls who took us in, made me prepay for the session which is unusual because then I have to think about a tip before the session and do not feel comfortable doing this. Because I was with my boyfriend we were in a room with two massage therapists, they talked to each other the ENTIRE time which is not relaxing at all. On top of it, they talked in another language which makes you think they might be talking about you? And because I don't speak their language I have no way of knowing if they are just talking shit or about their day, either of which is completely unprofessional and does not allow the client to zone out and enjoy the work. Because they talked the whole time, and made me pay before the massage, I was not planning on leaving a tip. (I paid $40 for a 30 minute dry over a cloth massage.) As I was leaving, the girl SOLICITED a tip and acted as if I had to tip her!! I gave each masseuse $5, making my 30 minute massage listening to them yap at each other the entire time $45 each person. I wish I could come back but I don't want to listen to someone having a full blown conversation while I'm getting body work done. read more

I have been going here for close to ten years. 99% of the times I've gone I am extremely satisfied, I think it's a great value. I usually get 90 minutes with the back walking and Lisa is my favorite. They're all good in my experience and safe to say I've probably been there at least 30 times. I'm a male with a muscular body so I like to get a very tough massage and this place really gets me good. I'm not sure my preference of type of massage is best for anyone which is why you need to look at the menu and communicate what you want. Yes there will always be language barriers but don't let that discourage you from communicating your needs. The facility is always clean I have never had any issues with cleanliness. The hot stones is nice. I have lived in austin 20+ years and been to several massage places in town and I will say this is one of my favorites. It's a great value, if you are looking for a super pampered experience with wine and all the crap that comes with $200+ 60 minute massages I'm not sure this is your place. No disrespect to those types of establishments just trying to communicate to the savvy spa people that might scrutinize lighting and sounds and details down to the type of carpet and oils, this isn't like that it's in my opinion more of a functional place that you drop in any time you need. I usually call ahead and tell what I want and usually can get in the same day. read more

I received the worst massage of my life here. I booked a massage because I was feeling a lot of stress and tension in my back and shoulders and decided I couldn't keep going about my day to day feeling stiff. I was so excited to get my knots out...except my masseuse had no idea what she was doing. I told her about my problem areas, and she proceeded to rub her elbow up and down my back for almost 40 minutes. It's hard to describe exactly how I felt, but when I usually have massages, I can tell the masseuse is performing movements and actions on my back that I wouldn't be able to do on someone else or ask a friend to do on me. They're professionally trained or taught to address areas, but she was giving me a massage that I could've done on someone else. There was absolutely no technique. Just constant up and down motions with her elbow that didn't address a single thing. I didn't say anything because I kept thinking to myself, "Surely this can't be it. Surely, there has to be more eventually." I ended up waiting until my massage was over and she truly had just performed one movement the entire time. Prices are definitely cheap, but I'd rather pay a premium to get a good massage than to come back here. read more

I went here for many years and enjoyed the massages...but during one of my last massages there (to be fair the massage I'm mentioning was 3 years ago) a woman was very rough on my shoulder. I couldn't use my arm correctly for about a month. For the next three years I went from doctor to doctor trying to find out why I started having all of this inflammation and pain on my right side...the worst was the pain in my abdomen and gastrointestinal problems this caused me. After thousands of dollars, an unnecessary surgery, and a lot of suffering, the issues have been traced back to damage to at upper back from this massage. I am not wishing to hurt this establishment's business, but I do want people to be careful with their bodies. If a massage hurts, tell people to stop and to the owner of this business - I feel your massager was having a very terrible day personally and took it out on my body. Please be sure that you take care of your staff so they take care of your client's bodies. I did enjoy going here for years prior to the above experience. read more

Really was not great. I may go here for cupping, but not the massage. Tried to get pressure stronger, but it was not to be. Seemed that the therapist just watched the timer for it to be done. Too .any good options in town. read more

I have been coming here with and without my husband for over a year and it's truly the best ! The owner and staff are friendly, the massage is phenomenal, and very affordable so we come often. This has been one of the biggest stress release for me moving to Texas from California and working remote. read more

The lady who answers the phone is incredibly rude like she's some cheap prostitute or something. The whole business seems unfriendly and shady so I have decided to avoid it. No need to be treated poorly while you are trying to relax! Any answers I could get over the phone made me feel like I was bothering them, and they kept changing their prices up and down which confused me and makes them look dishonest. read more

Pros: 1. Friendly staff 2. Timely service 3. Affordable prices and packages Cons: 1. Smoke odor 2.No initial instruction for prepping once in the room 3. My partner asked for medium massage and had a very aggressive massage despite saying multiple times that it was too hard 4. My masseuse left multiple towel marks on me from rough applied pressure over the towel as pictured on my back. Will not be returning. read more

I was not impressed at all! I didn't really know what to expect but pain was sure not what I expected! The best part the massage with the warm stones. That was heaven! Then at the end of the process, a tip was demanded! Not that I wasn't going to tip but demanding! And not tipping what you're able to but a tip that was suitable to them. And just in a rude way. I will not be going back. read more

Excellent massage , great value and I will continue to come back, I have been regular customer for over 7 years

The lady I got a massage from was so cute! Very energetic and worked with me for whatever I needed. My shoulders are particularly tough, so i ended up getting free hot stones, too! Great prices for the times. Be ready to strip down to your underwear though! read more

I do not recommend this place. The gentleman who worked on me did not know what he was doing. I asked several times for him to use less pressure and he didn't make any changes. He was using his elbow on my back, digging deep into my shoulders and had no idea that this didn't feel good. He would ask if I was ok but again didn't adjust the pressure and it was pretty obvious that the pressure was not comfortable. The hot stones were way too hot. They were burning my back. When they finally cooled this part of the massage lasted about 1 minute. Definitely disappointed and I wish they could provide the proper training so someone does not get hurt. read more

Great value, great massage. Called a couple minutes before I arrived to ensure they could get me in, I did a 90 min full body massage + hot stones (thank you :)) - they first had me undress and then sit on a lower massage bed. When he came in he put my feet in a hot bucket of water while he started with the top of my head and shoulders/hands - this felt amazing! Same with the rest of the massage. I felt comfortable and noise wasn't terrible! Rooms are divided almost to the top and it's very much what you'd expect from any place like this. I will definitely be going again and recommend this place if you need a quick fix or if you're like me and love to get massages frequently and not overpay for ambiance. read more

If you look at my reviews, I've been to a few Chinese foot massages. This one is different. It's easily the most expensive but, it's worth every penny. Excellent technique. That's it. You still get the language barrier and still stuck to the same tiered massages. But it's amazing. read more

Went here with my mom and cousin and it was amazing. they were really nice and cared for us. Consistent asking if you were okay and made you feel comfortable. it is very good pricing for what you get though I do wish it had more comfortable beds but they were still great. If you have the time come support this business! read more

I thought it was weird but they made us pay first. Me and my boyfriend were in the same room and the two women talked the entire time. We kindly asked them to stop and then they whispered the rest of the time. Overall, the massage was okay but wouldn't go back. read more

I highly recommend Li Massage. My wife and I made an appointment, when we walked in they were ready for us and had our places ready. The massage was professional and very well done. We both recommend Li Massage! read more

Besides Great service ..owners Lisa and Lee have Great Hearts..they came to help me clean after a water pipe bursted in my office.. Thank You my True Friends.. read more

I've been to different massage establishments in different cities from lower value to higher value. Them asking to pay prior service was an immediate red flag. The massage itself was not impressive at all. We did not tip prior when we payed and were instead waiting to pay upon their actual service. As we were walking out, they all 5 gathered and hounded us and stared at how much we were going to tip. I understand tips are important, but if you want a genuine good tip, good customer service and a decent massage should come with it. This is maybe my 2nd time ever writing a review on anything, but I feel like it was necessary to save anyone some cash. read more

I am very impressed with this place, I went in for a 30 minute chair massage and when the massage was over I felt no tension in my neck or shoulders and my upper back did not hurt anymore either, which was amazing because I had a ton of tension in my neck and shoulders when I arrived. Also want to say that this company does care about the health and wellbeing of their clients! This business is a classact! read more

Dont come here unless you like deep, rough, hard massages. I came to get a back massage and he f me up!! This was my first time getting a male so I just thought it was because his hands are rough rather than a gentle touch from a women. I was fine with it anyway but at some point it would get wayyyy too rough! The pressure was wayyyyy too hard. I could feel it through my soul. I didnt say anything because some of the stuff he did with that kind if pressure i liked, but when it came to his thumb digging in my back and slowly rising up, it was painful! Like I said, I thought it was my masseuse but my boyfriend got the same massage but from a female. So I assume they use the same technique. Aside from the massage, everyone here is very friendly. Its not what you call a professional service, the guy kept calling me "lady". But no one here knew a lot of English. $40 for a back massage was reasonable price for the kind of place. I wouldnt go back but it was a funny and great experience. read more

I have been here many times but the new lady insisted I pay first prior to getting the massage. Its insulting and I hope it's not a discriminatory practice against people of color. read more

I have been here twice in the last year and both times I have been very pleased with the massage itself. But I am big on customer service. I am not sure if it's the language barrier or if they just lack in this department but there is definitely room for improvement. A friend and I were getting a massage and the ladies were speaking in their language and laughing. Halfway through the massage I had to ask what was so funny and that we were there to relax. On our way out they demanded tips which I'm pretty sure are optional in many places. I probably will go back because it is only $25 but I will definitely need to lower my expectations so that I leave there happy instead of bitter. read more

To quote yelp, Meh. I've experienced better. This is a classic example of you pay for what you get. The massages are cheap, but mine was not the best. I will say that I will always remember this place for the laughs it gives me when I recall my masseuse standing in front of me and trying to massage my lower back, while I was face down on the table. She was a sweet, tiny, little lady, but too short to be attempting such a reach. This resulted in her grinding and bouncing her crotch into the back of my head for what felt like an hour while I tried not to laugh out loud. A happy ending of sorts, I suppose... read more

Went in Sunday afternoon for a massage. Self and my partner called ahead an hour to make sure they could get us in. Seems like a walk-in would be fine also. Pros: the atmosphere was fine. As expected, you have to hear a bit of the neighbors legs getting slapped and some dude coming in talking SUPER loud as if there is no one else attempting to enjoy their massage. Pro: my massage was great and the man who massaged me was very thorough and methodical with the reflexology WITHOUT hurting me. (Rare in my experience and I prefer it to be stronger than weaker). Pro: affordable. $30 for one hour of the combo: feet, arms and head and legs Cons: the place smelled STRONGLY of cigarette smoke. I could smell the same on the guys hands when he started the massage on my face. The smoke was distracting especially because I really hate the smell of cigarette smoke. Con: my partner said her massage was so weak that she was waiting for it to be over less than half way through. She said the woman massaging her kept yawning. (Understandable because it's really a hard job) but that's a bummer for my gal. I wanted to give three stars because of the cigarette smoke smell but the massage was good enough to keep at 4 stars. read more

I agree with a previous reviewer's cons on this place - the place smells like smoke, there is a language barrier and you pay for the massage upfront. I've had some very deep massages and have been to many foot massage places before, but none left me with bruises and rug burns on my back like the one I had today. I repeatedly asked for her to use more lotion/oil because whatever they use just absorbs into your skin. I don't think the woman who worked on me had a clue what to do. She massaged my spine!?!?? And walked over my calves and the back of my knees!!?!?? I told her that hurt and she said I thought you wanted a 'hard' massage. Take a look at the photo and you'll see the damage. I wanted to leave 10 minutes into my 75 minute massage, but my sister said she was getting a good massage and I just sucked it up. Plus we already paid for it. I should have just left. My sister and I traded masseuse after an hour and her guy, Ken, was much better than the woman who massaged me (hence the 2 stars). Didn't get her name. I asked her for it, but she didn't tell me. Like I said...there is a language barrier. read more

Good massage for affordable price. Rooms are open from the top so you can hear others around you. The person next to us was making very loud moaning noises lol so was an interesting experience. read more

I have been to 12+ massage places in Austin trying to find one that I liked. This is it. Amazing prices, I was asked if I wanted a male or female masseuse, I was asked if I was ok with the pressure, it was wonderful. Ask for Lili!! I cannot state enough high praise for how great she was. She made sure I was comfortable every step of the way. read more

Ci ci my Favorite Massage Specialist always gets my Body right after a long week on my feet .

I was excited to find this place and really hoped it would be great and would become my 'go to' spot. $50 for a 70 mins body massage was a great deal. The rooms are more private than other places and the decor also nicer. The gentleman who did my massage was very nice and worked very hard, even practically standing on my back during the massage. However, my experience was ruined by the fact that the staff all seemed to be sick and were constantly coughing, sneezing, horking, etc. Just gross. I couldn't stop thinking that I was 'relaxing' in a cesspool of germs. My massage guy left the room at least 10 times to blow his nose, and didn't wash his hands after. As soon as my massage was done I was quick to wash my hands and face and use anti-bacterial wipes. So, no. Lol. read more

My daughter and I were very eager to try this place. I had even gotten her a $50 gift card and I was not happy when they made her pick a service that cost $50 instead of letting her get something cheaper and use the balance for my massage. The gentleman asked me if I wanted a medium are a hard massage and I mistakenly said hard. Do not say hard! He actually stood up and walked on the back of my legs. I realize that is a form of massage, but probably not intended to be done by bigger man on a small woman. When I realized what was going on I asked him to switch to medium, but that still seemed too rough. The man was breathing rather heavily during several parts of the massage and my daughter, who was in the same room, was worried that he was hurting me LOLThe last part of the massage was rubbing the feet, and thankfully that was the most relaxing part. We love getting the reflexology massages, but I doubt we will ever go back to this place again. read more

I was super tired from work yesterday and Mindy today gave me a super restoring massage. I really recommend her.

It's my second time trying to make it for Happy Hour (10am - 11am). I made it 5 min before 11 the first time but according to their clock, it's past 11 so "next time". Second time I also made it 5 min before 11. I specifically asked if I still get the happy hour special she said yes and still ran my card for full price before the massage. ‍ You could never win here. False advertisement. read more

We are from Los Angeles and we get these at least once a week. I almost didn't come because there were a few bad reviews the truth is this was fantastic. My husband and I both had great one hour foot massages. In case you're not familiar with the foot massage it involves head neck shoulders as well as feet and it's usually an hour read more
