    Let me just say--Sue is amazing! As someone who is very particular about nail shape, color, and design, she exceeded all of my expectations. She truly nailed it! Sue is incredibly hospitable, kind, and thoughtful in the way she communicates. Her studio is warm, inviting, and cozy, which made the entire experience even more enjoyable. I loved the one-on-one service--it felt personal, exclusive, and detailed from start to finish. What stood out most was how much Sue genuinely cared, not only about the final look but also about the health of my nails. That level of attention and passion for her work makes all the difference. She doesn't know it yet, but I've officially made her my go-to nail technician . I won't be going anywhere else. Highly recommend!

    Can't be more happy with my nails she really took time doing my nails and the color turned out so beautiful. Not to mention her salon is really cuteee

    This is sad.

    The gel polish didn't last a day. I was told I would get a refund for the extra that I paid for gel. It has been close to 3 weeks and I never received one. The nail tech told me they would fix the nails that weren't cured correctly and they would "use the good gel." Why are you using 2 different types of gel on people? The business made a whole new profile on google after receiving a 3 star rating. There is a vibe of desperation to look like they care, but they really don't care. The nails that didn't get the "good gel" are cracking and dull. I would never recommend a place that offers half done pedicures with minimal callus removal and LOW QUALITY NAIL GEL! I don't want people to WASTE THEIR TIME AND MONEY!!!!!

    I really love this manicure! The nail technician was also very nice; she discussed the design I wanted with me and offered her suggestions. Many of my friends complimented my nails afterward, and I'm so happy!

    They use Groupon to lure you in, but then overcharges you once you get there regardless of what your Groupon says you paid for.

    Sue was so helpful and didn't rush as to provide attention to detail with the gel and design nail service.

    My nail salon for 5 YEARS and I still haven't found better…read more I've been coming to The Nail Plaza since 2021, and let me just say...Henry and his team are THE BEST. I've gotten pedicures, acrylics, designs, gel, and most recently Gel X, and I've genuinely never had a bad experience here. I've moved around to different cities over the years, tried other nail salons, and somehow I ALWAYS end up coming back here. Because once you find a nail tech/salon that actually does clean, solid, GOOD nails, you don't let go! And when I say clean, I mean CLEAN. No chunky acrylic underneath, no sloppy edges, no nails that look rushed. My nails always come out fresh, even, and exactly how I want them. Another huge plus: they don't push services on you. Their pricing is fair, they're honest, and they actually care about giving you a good experience rather than upselling you on everything. Henry is also such a gem. He's owned this location for **15 YEARS**, which says a LOT. He's incredibly kind, humble, personable, and always makes you feel welcome. If there's ever something you're not happy with, he's more than willing to listen and make it right. THAT kind of customer service is rare these days. I'll sometimes walk in, and yes, they can get busy -- but I usually just call ahead to see what their availability looks like. They're always respectful of my time, and I try to be respectful of theirs . AND they just renovated the salon!! New lighting, fresh paint, new equipment -- the whole place looks SO good. It feels fresh, clean, and modern, and honestly, they deserve all the support for continuing to invest in their business and the community. After five years of being a customer, I can confidently say: I haven't found a better nail salon. If you're in Diamond Bar, Pomona, or the surrounding area and you're looking for a new nail spot, GO HERE. Support your local businesses, especially the ones that have been showing up for their community for 15+ years. Henry and his team deserve it! 10/10. Highly recommend. Will continue driving back here even if I move across the city.

    I've been coming to this salon for years, which is why this is so disappointing to write…read more Unfortunately, the customer service has gone downhill. During my pedicure, the technician accidentally nicked me hard enough to draw blood. Accidents happen, but there was no apology. When I politely asked if she could disinfect the area with alcohol since my skin had been broken, she acted annoyed that I even asked. During my manicure, I simply asked for her opinion on how to fix a broken nail and which color she thought would look best. Instead of being helpful, she looked visibly irritated. Later, I asked if she could apply one extra coat of polish, and she rolled her eyes. I actually found myself apologizing for making a simple request, which says a lot about how uncomfortable the interaction was. The saddest part is that the staff often make you feel like you're inconveniencing them simply by asking for the service you're paying for. It feels as though they're doing you a favor instead of providing customer service. No customer should feel guilty for politely asking a question or requesting something reasonable. This isn't an isolated experience either. Last month, my husband was also accidentally nicked during his appointment. We understand accidents happen, but it's the lack of care, empathy, and professionalism afterward that is most disappointing. As long-time customers, we expected to be treated with kindness and respect. Instead, we left feeling uncomfortable and unwelcome. I sincerely hope management addresses the staff's attitude because the quality of the customer experience no longer matches the loyalty many of us have shown this salon.

I was going for 2+ years back when they were at their old location and I have never been so impressed. They give complimentary sparkling water and always play a great movie in the background.

Phoebe and her team work hard to make sure your nails stay healthy, strong, and obviously cute!!! They've done various builder gel designs and 3D art on my nails and have lasted 6-8 weeks!!

    This place was suggested to me on a Facebook group. Before visiting here, I have not gotten my…read morenails done professionally in about three or four years. And you will most definitely see me coming back here. First time I visited, I went right when they opened because I wasn't sure how much of a wait time it could be since I didn't have an appointment. I waited about five minutes before they were able to take care of me. Everyone was polite and friendly. Service was incredibly fast. I think I was only in there for an hour and a half again I only wanted something simple and basic so that also contributed to me not being there long. Fast-forward to about a week and a half I noticed I definitely needed to go in for a fill. This time I did make an appointment for 10:30am, I walked in at about 10:12, I knew I was definitely early but I figured I'd take a seat and look at color options while I waited. I did not wait long however they seated me within three minutes of me being there. So I will most definitely give them five stars for how quick they are. This second time around, I did have a color in mine from the first time I went, and it came out fabulous. The nail technician when he was putting the color on did suggest chrome which I have never tried, and I am most definitely glad he did because the color I chose was definitely lighter than what I chose the first time and with the chrome it just made my nails look simple and clean but with a little bit of shine. Definitely love that as soon as you come in the atmosphere and the vibe is completely great. They sit you down and they ask if you would like anything to drink which I love. I usually don't say yes, but I love that they ask because it's just extremely polite of them. My only caveat and I think I might be the only one is, I do wish they would play something else on the TV that they have in there, the two times I have gone they have this baking show which seems great, but I do wish they would play some kind of chick flick or a romance movie or a movie in general rather than a baking show haha. All in all I'm definitely going to keep coming here! I am looking forward to scheduling my pedicure hopefully soon I have not had one since I was a little girl so I'm very much excited. I hear good things about pedicures here.

My toenails weren't cleaned underneath after I asked about it and my tech wouldn't remove two small ingrown more like hangnail areas that other nail techs have helped with before. * Nail polish removal was very rough and uncomfortable. * The massage lasted less than a minute and the whole service felt rushed. There were only 3 people in the salon: my mom, myself and one other person and they seemed much more attentive to the other woman. * The salon didn't feel very clean. The walls were dirty, the baseboards were dusty, they had stuff duct taped on the chairs that were falling apart. The furniture and pillows were mismatched and the hallway to the restroom had a shredded curtain and wasn't well maintained in the back. Bathroom was pretty dirty too. * There were only three technicians working on a Saturday and the overall quality of service reflected that. *They did have AC which felt nice during this hot summer, but other than not much else going for this place. Unfortunately, despite the friendly staff the experience didn't meet our expectations and we won't be returning.

    I've been coming to this nail salon for a couple of years now, and my most recent nail tech,…read moreMichelle, did such a great job on my Gel-X set! I spend around $100 ish here doing the gel x mani and also some designs at times. I've been really into the Hailey Bieber chrome look, usually the white pearl, and this time I tried a pink pearl instead and loved how it turned out. My sets with Michelle have lasted me over 42 days, which is honestly impressive. Once my nails grow out again, I'll most likely be coming back to her. Michelle is calm, patient, listens to what I want, and also gives helpful recommendations when I'm deciding what to do. The salon itself is pretty clean, and I've noticed a sanitizing station near the restroom, which is reassuring. So far I haven't had any issues during the years I've been coming here. Bonus: there's a Paris Baguette right next door, which is perfect when you're hungry after sitting through a 2+ hour nail appointment Grab a little treat afterward!

    I am responding to my Yelp review here because the owner's response only further confirmed my…read moreconcerns regarding this establishment's professionalism and integrity. Rather than taking accountability for the conduct described, the owner attempted to dismiss the incident by characterizing the use of an unclean towel as a mere "misunderstanding." Such a response is deeply troubling and reflects a lack of transparency and responsibility. The issue was not a misunderstanding. The technician attempted to reuse a towel that had already been used on another customer during my sister's pedicure service. This was witnessed and confirmed by another customer in the salon. Only after being confronted did the technician stop disputing the matter and obtain a clean towel. The owner's attempt to minimize this conduct raises serious concerns regarding sanitation practices within the salon and whether similar incidents may have occurred previously without customers' knowledge. Equally concerning was the technician's conduct following the incident. While she attempted to adjust the water temperature after my sister notified the technician that the water was unbearably hot, she never apologized, or demonstrated any concern for my sister's comfort. Instead, she began scooping water from the pedicure basin with a bowl while my sister sat there visibly uncomfortable and distressed. At that point, my sister no longer felt safe or comfortable continuing the service because she had lost confidence in the technician's judgment, professionalism, and hygiene practices. What is most disappointing is the owner's response afterward. Rather than addressing the matter with empathy or accountability, the response came across as passive aggressive, dismissive, and condescending. The owner failed to acknowledge the seriousness of the conduct and instead appeared more concerned with deflecting responsibility than resolving the issue appropriately. Consumers have a right to know how concerns regarding sanitation, customer treatment, and professionalism are handled at this establishment. Based on this experience and the owner's response, I no longer have confidence in the integrity or management of this business.
