I live close by and go to LV when I can't get to my usual place. I usually get a regular manicure or pedicure. The service is good, my nails last a long time and often get confused for gel which is also great. Everyone is always welcoming and friendly. Even when busier, never had a problem with a walk in visit I've also had my eyebrows done here on many occasions and that is where i will give my biggest compliment. I have had a few cases pf botched waxing elsewhere, so I am always nervous about eyebrow waxing but i have always had a great experience here. read more

I came to this salon 5 times. The actual salon atmosphere and lay out is nicer than 90 percent of other salons in the downtown area. The language barrier is worse here than anywhere else I've been. I've had two good sets of nails come out of this place out of 5 sets, I've never been happy with the pedicures. It's not relaxing. Good place to go if you're with a big group and you don't really care how your nails turn out. They serve champagne. read more

I've been here twice now, and both times have been great. The ladies here make great recommendations, but I don't feel upsold. They also check throughout to make sure you're liking what you're getting. For me, I appreciate that they're not trying to talk to me the whole time so I can relax. I'm so glad to have found a place that feels good. read more

I've had good luck coming in here without an appointment during San Diego Comic-Con. I had a simple manicure with regular polish and a pedicure with no polish. Everything went fine and was done in a quick manner. I'm actually surprised more people don't spend some time getting a relaxing pedicure during SDCC. Nothing feels better after a couple of days on your feet non-stop than a soak and a massage. read more

Had a gel builder removed and nails cut, they (she) did not do a good job. Charged me an extra $6 for buffing my nails, but they didn't remove all the gel, and left my nails ragety and rough. The pedicure was also unprofessional, painful on my feet. It just seems they were not interested in doing the job. I was looking for a new place so I started with something simple to try out the services, this place is not for me. They take walk-ins, they tell everyone 5 minutes.... I waited almost 20, no acknowledgement. It's just wasn't the service level or experience I expect. read more

My friend and I went we walked in no appointment and got sat almost immediately which was good. they asked us both what we wanted and we both asked for square french tip, my friend had no issues but the lady doing my nails said she "couldn't do the square shape" because my nails were previously almond shape but they were grown out quite a bit all you'd have to do is file them down and they'd be square. she said she could do coffin shape and i said no i don't want that and i can't have that shape at work, so she says okay and then does square shape with no issues... she said she had to take the nails/acrylic i currently had on, off because one singular nail was lifting so i went with it. the service was good it was quick and i really like the out come of my nails. my friend and i go to pay and they forced us to tip before we left, we are the people to always leave tip anyways regardless but, forcing people to tip is ridiculous so we tipped a lot less than we would have for that. a few days after we got them done, they started lifting like crazy and chipping and the white part of the french tip was getting bubbles and stuff in it. i paid $70 something for these nails and the way they looked after just 4 days it looked like i had the on for weeks. would not recommend and definitely not going back. read more

Mia is an expert nail tech. She can do any design and it lasts! No matter how many rhinestones. Aimee is a very good tech as well. She does unique designs and has terrific ideas.

Last time I came here I got a gel pedicure with the cat eye polish and they did a great job and it was just the normal additional $10 for gel. Came here today and I came in and I picked out another cat eye color for my toes and they immediately were like no you can only do that on your fingernails. And I was like well I already have it on my toes and you did it last time so what's the problem? And they're like OK fine but it's gonna be an extra $40. ???????? last time was only an extra $10 this time it's an extra 30$. I ended up getting a regular gel and it just looks like a hot mess and the polish on the big toes are already peeling and it hasn't even been a day. Used to love this place I don't know what happened. read more

I walked in and the acetone smells were so strong I almost walked out, but they opened the door for fresh air and it got a little better. I went during lunch and got seated right away. Two nail technicians helped (mani/pedi) and both were very friendly. It looks clean and is very well decorated. My nails turned out very nice. My husband went the next day for a mani/pedi and his finger nails didn't look as well filed as they could have been. There's a lot of places in the area so I'll probably try something new next time. read more

I've been coming here for a few years now. I'm a local and decided to do a staycation downtown. I ran into this place and decided to get my nails filled and a pedicure. I have been coming here ever since. I live about 30 to 35 minutes away and will not only make the commute, but pass other nail salons that I used to patron. I get the GelX with either Trina or Mia. All the ladies do good nails, but I just like to keep it consistent with the ladies I know. Sidebar: you get either cocoffee, water, a mimosa, or wine with your nail service! The music is calming and the decor is nice as well. read more

This was an unexpected surprise! My friends and I walked into this place as we wanted to do an impromptu nail session during our girls weekend. They were able to take all of us despite being full. None of us minded the wait since they were willing to take us. There was water and mimosas for those that like alcohol. The one iffy thing was that my friend got a glass that needed to be cleaned but they brought her another and that was fine. They do cash and if you don't have cash, you can still pay via apple pay and if you want to tip your person specifically, you can ask for their Venmo. They were super nice to accommodate all of us though if you don't have all the time in the world, maybe an appointment would be better? I got a regular manicure which is hand massage, hot towel, then getting into actual manicure part. The cuticle care was pretty good. Normally, cuticle care is my least favorite because salons have a tendency to be rough but they were pretty gentle with it overall. What really inspired me to write this review is how well my manicure was applied! Normally, regular polish means my nails will chip within two days if not the day of but it has been almost a week and no chips at all! I'm impressed. I have saved this spot because the next time I make a trip to San Diego, this is going to be my spot if I want a little mani Pedi time. Since I came as a tourist, I can't really speak for the parking situation. That being said, it is San Diego downtown and with some streets closed, it can be difficult so I'd research parking ahead of time. We took public transportation so it wasn't bad for us at all. read more

I was looking for a pedicure last minute in the gaslamp district (moving here and checking out the area). They could fit me in right away which was the only pro besides overall nice place. Fruit flies were flying around and in my drink the entire time, the gel I had on before took a hour to get off since she couldn't figure out how, worst pedicure of my life, $20 extra for gel on my toes (in YEARS of getting gel on my toes I have NEVER had to pay $20 just for gel), and I clearly had someone who has probably never done a pedicure before. I asked for my ingrown toe nails to get fixed and luckily she grabbed someone else to do that. Overall- not a great experience. As the person next to me said "first time and last time" agreeing. Not worth the 20% off. I will have to go get another pedicure since it was so horrible and I'm about to go on a trip... complete waste of 1.5 hours.... I cannot believe I paid over $60 for this AWFUL job. Update: I called and asked if I could get a refund / what my options were. They were willing to do a refund or fix them. For that changing the review to 3 stars. read more

My girl Mia never misses. She is one of the most awesome nail techs at LV Nails and Spa. I have been doing my nails with her for almost 3 months now and she has delivered high quality every single time. Her work is very neat and precise, she has great attention to detail. She is very positive and friendly person too which creates great vibe and experience. Salon itself is conveniently located downtown, staff is quite nice and friendly, as a regular now I experience this more and more, however they are very welcoming to brand new clients as well. When I get my nails done they always offer me complementary drink which adds to good customer experience. Salon space is always clean and I do enjoy music they play in the background. I do recommend this Salon and Mia! She is great! read more

FAVORITE Nail Salon in SD. Katie is my nail girl and does an amazing job! However all of the other employees are also so kind, welcoming and amazing at their jobs. They really take time on the cuticles, scrub and massage. Polishing is superb. You even get a complimentary mimosa, white or red wine, sparkling water, coffee or tea. if you should like. I first came here 3 years ago, and never looked back. Amazing Amazing Amazing!! read more

There were two technicians working, each with a client, and right at 5:01, one finished up, and Tim started on my nails. He was efficient, friendly, polite, and incredibly entertaining. Not only did he do a fantastic job on my gel manicure (in just about 30 minutes!), but he also gave me great tips on how to take pictures of my nails. For just $38 for a gel manicure, the pricing is super reasonable, and I made sure to leave a good tip because Tim truly deserved it. I highly recommend Logan Nails--I think I just found my new go-to nail spa in San Diego! Would definitely be back!
