    I just got my nails done by Martin and I'm so happy with how they turned out. I did a gel x ombre set and they came out so clean, elegant, and exactly like the inspo pic I showed him Pinterest (if not better). It's honestly hard to find a nail spot that's consistent every single time, and I've been wanting someone I can actually make my go-to. Martin is definitely that for me. He's super detail-oriented, takes his time, and really makes sure everything looks right instead of rushing through the appointment. On top of that, he's so easy to be around and makes the whole experience comfortable. He's super funny and we get yappy the whole session. If you want someone reliable who does beautiful, classy nails consistently, I highly recommend Martin's Nail Corner. I already know I'll be coming back every time.

    I've been here twice now, and both experiences have been great! I made appointments for both visits and was immediately attended to upon arrival, which I really appreciate. They also offer beverages and snacks, which is such a nice touch and makes the experience feel extra welcoming. I've been growing out my natural nails for a few months now, so I was really happy to find a salon that is experienced with builder gel. Martin did my builder gel fill-in, and he was incredibly kind, gentle, and knowledgeable. I really appreciated how carefully he worked on my nails and how comfortable he made the entire experience. The pedicures are great as well! They really take the time to care for your feet, and the massage is so relaxing. You can definitely tell they care about providing good service and making their clients feel taken care of. I highly recommend coming here if you're looking for quality nail care and great customer service. You'll leave feeling Bonita!

    pretty gel x nails from Martin and love the complimentary sparkling wine and shots of tequila  will return when I visit the bay area ‼

    Amazing experience. Gel x manicure and gel french tip pedicure complimentary sparkling wine with shots of tequila. Love the hospitality - snacks also offered ‼

    Gel manicure with almond/round perfectly shaped nails! A natural sugar scrub handmade by Martin was the best with warm towels used.

    I was greeted by the corner salon warmly with a calm atmosphere. Martin immediately offered me water, milk tea boba, or a mimosa. He was able to give me a beautiful and even nail shape and chrome finish based off inspiration photos I showed him along with a handmade sugar scrub made by him and warm towels. Next time we will do designs! He was very gentle with my hands as I told him I have sensitive cuticles and I didn't bleed. My organic signature pedicure with massage was great by Steven and Helen also had given me a great shoulder massage that came with my manicure I believe. Very friendly and great/attentive service with a family business that's so sweet!

    I never felt rushed, yet my entire appointment, including my manicure, pedicure, and waxing, was finished in less than 1.

Cons: pedicure water was Luke warm to cold both times. Massage was 2 min per leg, which included a scorching hot stone massage. I actually asked about the lack of massage last time. They were apologetic and suggested it was just a one off oversight. Same non memorable leg massage again. Also unlike most SF places, they do not do a complimentary neck massage after nails. Prices are about the same as most places. Final tally: there are better options if you want more than pai

    Portola Nail Bar - Middle nail is broken so low I'll be cutting it off. I've tried bandaids and nail strengthener/hardner but it's done. I'm so angry.

I love that they texted me the day before asking what design I wanted, I've had other salons not be able to do something upon arrival, but that was not the case here. They did a great job and well priced. Would definitely come again.

Had a gel manicure peel off three fingers after 48 hours. Generally just room appears dirtier & dirtier each time I go and there's lots of conversation between techs that feels like judgement of clients. UPDATE: Owner personally contacted me and wants me to try again. I have a service scheduled in a couple days. I do think they care,. I'm giving it another try. UPDATE # 2: Went in for my complimentary classic mani/pedi. They were right on it: no waiting, right to business. Both the mani and pedi went well. I did have to ask for a drying machine for my mani, just to be sure it would dry. I'm grateful they offered me this service for free and I feel better about it all. They care and really tried. I left a big tip for both technicians and I will consider coming back again. I should ask for specific people if I do go back. I think it matters.
