A little pushy on the services but overall loved my pedicure in April 2025. They work fast and are very nice to chat with. They were able to take me as a walk-in without an appointment and I had no wait time. It was just after opening so that may be the golden time to walk in! I had a relaxing time and loved that this is located right above a coffee shop. I would return here if I was in the area - it is a nice spot to grab a nail service while running errands. I wouldn't go out of my way to book here. read more

what an amazing experience! trying out a new salon is always intimidating. not this one. they just moved to a new location down South on 23rd Ave. a few blocks away but i recommend driving and parking. they have their other store marked as 'open' to still get calls for a bit until they get more settled into their new place. great prices, great plant/bright vibes. Nia did amazing! i was in and out in 45 mins-hour. they use gel instead of powder dip which i thought was cool, it hurts and stings at first under the light but if you pull your hand in and out and tap your fingers on the table it helps! you get used to it too. my nails feel alot stronger and lighter with the gel instead of powder too. will be going back to these amazing ladies! read more

I had a really great experience here recently. Needed my (short-ish) nails done in a pale neutral for a wedding. Really nice vibes, attention to detail, quality and price. Will be back! read more

My friend took me here over the weekend to try pedicures. We both had a great experience! The two sweet people working in this salon were professional and followed all appropriate COVID guidelines. There are plastic barriers in the foot baths, the pedicure scrubs and lotions are all individually packed, and the salon is just generally clean. She also keeps many cute plants and there's a good amount of natural light--it's a nice place to sit for an hour. My friend and I both love our toes now and are already planning our return trip. read more

We on a whim decided to get pedicures and manicures they were a group of four of us and two of the nail technicians were standing outside as they watched us approach the door they politely asked us would we like to have service and we happily agreed that they were so kind and gracious the place was spotless clean and on a whim they completely gave our two children the most beautiful manicures, gave two Moms amazing pedicures and manicures get this in one hour it was incredible the customer service was incredible and they did a really wonderful job highly recommend. Oh, and they were already closing when we had walked up. What stellar customer service!!! read more

THE BEST nail place ever! Not having lived in the area long I tried several nail places...This is by far the best one! Friendly too! JENNY did such an amazing job on my nails today~gel shellac... I couldn't wait to write this review! She knew exactly the length and shape I wanted! She fixed an annoying nail tear I've had for years...my nails have never looked more beautiful! ..finishing it off with a wonderful hand/arm massage ...THANK YOU! I will be a regular customer! read more

I love both the girls here and their delightful commitment to pleasing everyone who calls or comes through their door for service. You're in for a treat when you experience the thoughtful and experienced work of these girls! Thank you for your consistent care and work! I appreciate you! read more

it is not their fault that construction was blocking their building, but I could not see how to enter fomyappointmen. I called and asked for help getting in as I had a cane and I am a fall risk. they told me to come back another day. they know how to do nails, but not how to help customers,into the store. not impressed. read more

I have tried several nail salons and hands down they do the best job! After a couple weeks it seems the gel manicures from other salons start lifting around the edges. That has never happened to me here. You need to schedule an appointment but when you arrive they are typically ready for you and if you do wait it is only for a couple minutes. Again at other salons I will schedule an appointment and many times end up waiting, sometimes for a long time. read more

This was my second visit Midas and this time I saw Nomi for a Sports Man-i-cure. As a guy at a nail salon I did not feel too comfortable the first time I went there three weeks ago. So, this time I convinced my wife and our dog Madiba to accompany me as a moral support. My cuticles have been tearing up and really killing me and causing some undo pain that this manicure process seems to cure. Nomi was sweet and very accommodating to alleviate my discomfort and reassured me many men do come to Midas for manicure and even Peducure and I should try a combo next time. Well, I plan to take her up on it. Thanks Nomi. (Hope I got the name right. This is the tall and cute lady. (Tibetan/Mongolian) I plan to be back for the main/pedi duo next time. Cheers.

Tucked away on the 2nd level of a repurposed house is Midas Nails--more importantly, Miss Nia. I had just landed in Portland in town for the week attending a conference, and I was really hoping to find a decent place for a gel-fill. I was not disappointed. My nail tech Nia was amazing, fast, courteous. The salon is open late--till 8. The work was superior and I kinda wish I lived in Portland now. Le sigh. As a life long nail salon patron, I highly this salon. They place cool music in the background and have ample space. They also offer a large array of color options. I'm a fan! read more

Amazing, relaxing, spa-like experience. Best pedicure I've had in PDX. Loved my time here and I'm headed back for a manicure.

Not the best atmosphere for a manicure/pedicure. The place is super small and feels extremely cramped even with just the worker. However, they have the biggest shellac color selection I have ever seen. And I am Vietnamese, so nail salons are pretty much in my DNA. Another benefit is they are very thorough with their services, don't think I've ever had someone who was so meticulous in details. My pedicure lasted over am hour! With their jetted tub and Asian tunes, I was so relaxed I'm pretty sure I fell asleep....... read more

I got the BEST MANICURE EVER here! Normally when I get manicure, the paint starts to chip after a couple days. Here it lasted a full 5 days before it started MNIMALLY chipping - I was ecstatic! But let's get down to the important stuff: the massages. The girl who helped me gave me a foot rub that just went on and on and on and I couldn't have been in more bliss! Then on the manicure she really spent a lot of time massaging my hands and even went up my arms and rubbed my shoulders - chyeah! Plus they really did a great, careful job on my toes and nails and did some great artistic designs on my toes and fingers - 2 for $5 for a beautiful design. I don't know what all these hater reviews are talking about with the place being hot - I went on an 85 degree day and was cool as a cucumber! $25 gets you a pedi and $15 gets you the added mani - great deal especially for the location! And they gave me a punch card - buy 10 get one free! Really I can't recommend this place enough. Great experience! read more

Midas Nail Spa - My cute mani! - Nail Salons Near Me - Portland, Oregon

Listen, you don't need to tell me if I "have a lot of calluses." Um, I know. It was winter, remember? And the only times I wasn't wearing boots and tights all season was when I was sleeping and showering, so give a girl a break. Ahem, anyways, other than their candid appraisal of the state of my feet, this is a nice little spot. It's pretty tiny which feels a little nicer and more relaxing than some of the other big nail places in town where they quickly herd people in and out like cattle. They've got a pretty standard nail salon menu with pretty standard prices ($25 for standard pedi, $30 for spa) and it's right upstairs from Vivace which is nice. OPI polishes only. I diiiid feel a little put upon to upgrade to this and that to which is kind of annoying, but no big deal and the girl did keep asking if I needed a magazine and I kept saying no and she finally just got up and handed me one. Girl supports literacy, I guess. Except it was Redbook. Redbook? Really? Do I seem like a Redbook gal? Okeeey. In summary, it's a cute and comfortable spot if you can take strong direction. read more

My favorite nail salon in Portland! They're gentle and pay attention to details, the ladies are so nice as well. I came here for a extension removal and my natural nails were not damaged at all. They can also do nail art, I got exactly what I asked for. 100% recommend. read more

Probably one of the best pedicures I have ever had. I didn't even get the deluxe, and it was heaven. They spent so long with the massages, and the salt rub was the kicker. They really spend a long time pampering you, so if 25 for a regular pedi sounds 'spensive, its MORE than worth it. Now I've got slammin' feet. Eat your hearts out foot fetish creepos, the flip flops in fall are here to stay. read more

Ask for Holly and you'll get a 5+ star manicure! I am a snob about neat, precise, full-coverage shellac manicures. At first I was sat down with a technician who seemed a bit less experienced--she did my filing, cuticles, arm/shoulder massage, etc. She used a kit (buffing block, cuticle clippers, under-nail cleaner) that was NOT sanitized and had clearly been used already. She kept pausing to text on her phone, and she did not understand "rounded square" no matter how many ways I tried to explain. The manicurist adjacent to us was doing a beautiful job on her client's shellac; I was ready to ask if she could please do my paint, as I was wary of my technician's precision and general ability. GUESS WHAT She was ushered out by my coveted manicurist, and she basically re-did everything the previous girl had done--filing/buffing, cuticle touch-up, etc--with NEW TOOLS and proceeded to give me the most beautiful and precise shellac I've ever had. She stayed well after closing and asked if I would like another coat for better opacity... She was even surgeon-like in her focus on my top coat. I had asked for a flower and her nail art was BEAUTIFUL and fast. What a pro! If Holly (the perfectionist) was doing my manicure from the beginning, this would be a five star review. I'm absolutely going back for all my next manicures, but I will be sure to ask for Holly. P.S. They have punch-cards that'll earn you a free pedicure! read more

The most amazing customer service and attention to detail I've experienced in Portland. My wife brought me here as a surprise for my 30th Birthday. The staff is extremely friendly and so accommodating our experience was one of a kind. I got a pedicure and my wife got a pedi & mani. My feet look and feel amazing thanks to these lovely ladies. We're originally from LA and heard from a friend that this was the best nail salon in Portland. Midas Nail Spa is definitely the best! Thank you read more

Got a manicure here with my sister and mom - Great experience. My manicurest, Noy, is greatly talented! My nails looks amazing, they are clean and even and she knows what she is doing. Hand and shoulder massage afterward. No wait. Regis was my third time coming here and I'm never disappointed! Addendum: I usually give Midas 5 stars but today I got my nails done and it took forever, and the lady cleaning my nails filed my nails unevenly and clipped some of my cuticles too short (ouch!) and others not short enough. I asked her to just shape my nails and she cut them instead. Now I know I need to only go to certain manicurists! No more walk-ins for me read more

This is my go-to nail salon in Portland. Every gel manicure I've gotten has lasted minimum 2.5 weeks and they always do a beautiful job. It's affordable too! Can't beat $30 for a solid gel manicure! read more

Midas Nail Spa - Done yesterday! - Nail Salons Near Me - Portland, Oregon

I've been three times now and I won't go back. The nail techs are very rough. They cut and push my feet around in a very aggressive manner. They also don't cut the big toe nails very short. If I don't ask them to cut shorter, I have to go back in a week. If you are at all sensitive to smells, don't get their up sell. The chemical odors linger. read more

Don't trust the Midas touch. They're nice, holly is great, they were slammed and literally running around. The nail technicians were literally running around because they were busy running back-and-forth between the two rooms they keep all their stuff in a little closet so they are constantly getting up and going to the little closet. One time she was getting out an ingrown toenail and she shoved some kind of instrument into my toe to get it out and left it there for a solid thirty seconds while talking to her neighbor. I think my experience was probably not very good because there were 4 really obnoxious customers there who were asking the nail techs how long they've been in America. so rude and annoying. At one point my freshly painted toe was run over by a little stool that they sit on so its smudged didn't ask them to fix it because it already took 45 minutes for a pedicure. Then they asked me to go wash my hands didn't tell me where I had never been there before and then when I picked up my own purse to move it because every other place will grab your stuff for you and move it to your next location for a manicure this place doesn't do that apparently the girl got mad and told me to go rewash my hands. My French tip on my thumb is crooked but the rest of my nails look good. Overall I was there for an hour and 30 minutes I had a pedicure and a shellac manicure my toe is smudged and my finger is crooked. Skip this place. Oh and ask to skip the arm massage, it actually hurt, there's a reason they do nails and not massage. read more

I called first thing in the morning on Thursday and got a pedicure at 11:00 with plenty of nail colors to choose from. My pedicure started right when I arrive. The young woman was very attentive and the place had a bright clean feeling combined with fun element of being on second floor of old house. Decent music. It only wasn't five stars because the woman was a little heavy-handed hot stone over ankle-bones and one or two tiny smudges on polish on margins of nails bur minor issues based to an overall positive, time that I would recommend. read more

Amazing, sparkling clean, friendly and personable service.

STAY AWAY! THIS NAIL SALON GAVE ME A BACTERIAL INFECTION! I got a manicure and pedicure (no polish, just asked for cuticles to be cleaned up) last Friday. One lady worked on my toes and another on my hands. I had already cut my fingernails and toenails and asked that they not be cut. Instead of listening, the lady working on my toes chose to cut the sides of my toenails at a slant. My dermatologist has told me not to allow this as it causes ingrown toenails. The bigger issue is that the lady picked at my big toe and I NOW HAVE A BACTERIAL INFECTION from this nail salon. My toe is red, swollen and infected. I just called the nail salon and asked for Nia Mach as this is who I paid on Venmo since they wouldn't take a credit card, and she refused to give me a refund. read more

Had an amazing experience this afternoon with Nia! She did an unbelievable job on my gel manicure: so meticulous with every little detail, and even fixed a crack making everything flawless. Truly the best manicure I've ever had. I've found my go-to nail place!! read more

Cuticles burned and sting up to three days after manicure. It's been a week now and cuticles are still sensitive to the touch. All I got was shellac! After one week, the grow out looks like My nails already need to be redone. The lady painted so far from the cuticles it was ridiculous. I would have made them redo them if I didn't have other appointments. For $80 mani and pedi(shellac) this was unacceptable as far as experience and service. It was absolutely dead and maybe two other customers. Had two ladies working on me (one on nails one on feet) in such a hurry . I was just a turn and burn customer and for what??? NOT GOING BACK DO NOT RECOMMEND TO OTHERS. What a waste of time and money. read more

Great little spot! After a few weeks of hiking with my boyfriend, we decided to treat ourselves to pedicures, which my boyfriend had never experienced before. They do honor the 15% off upon first yelp check in, which is a pretty cool deal. We were driving into Portland after our hikes, and the first thing I wanted was this pedicure. Midas was the only place open past 6 on a Sunday night (they closed at 7), so we called for a reservation at 6:45 due to time constraints, and they were super sweet despite the timing. The salon is located in an adorable old home-turned business building, with a cafe on the first floor and the salon on the second. The salon was well-kept and very tidy. The polish selection was really great for both regular and shellac. After picking my color, we were taken to the pedicure chairs. My boyfriends chair had the built in electric back massager, but mine was broken, which was disappointing. One of the employees came up to offer us a selection of drinks, including hot tea, water, and red and white wine. I don't know about the wines, but we both got hot tea, and it was complimentary. Then the pedicures began. We both got the $25 spa pedis, which included the foot soak, cut, file and cuticle work, lotion massage, calus treatment and exfoliating scrub. Mine also came with a standard polish, which was an additional $15 for shellac, a bit steep in my opinion. But the work was well done! My nail tech had great attention to detail, and my boyfriend loved every second of his experience. A new nail tech took over to do my polish, which turned out great. They even treated us to hot stone massages, which are a part of the deluxe package, for no charge. That was fabulous. With the 15% off, my total came to $34 and my boyfriends came to $21. A great deal for the awesome service. Tl;dr- Great service that includes above-and-beyond amenities and awesome attention to detail when it comes to pedicures. Be sure to use the 15% off! read more

Stopped in to Midas the other day with a recommendation from an acquaintance. I was lucky enough to get service from Nia. Going into nail salons and coming out with exactly what I want is very rare especially in the pacific north west. I have been through trial and error with salons not caring about their customer, rushing the process or simply not giving the quality service. This salon has totally changed my mindset. They have not only met but exceeded my expectation from a nail salon. Nia did amazing being very detail oriented. Attentive and artistic with the service she provided. I am more than happy to now say I finally found a nail salon I can call home for my nails read more

I would typically give Midas 5 full on stars however my recent experience there was beyond terrible. I used to frequent Midas when I lived in Portland and was always 100% pleased with the service and the quality of work they do. I no longer live in Portland but when I visit, I make it a point to go to Midas every time! So last Friday I went and I ended up getting a horrible nail lady. She was a younger Asian girl, had to be in her early 20's I'd say, I think her name was LiLi or MiMi! She literally spent less then 5 minutes on my Pedi, it seemed as though she was rushing, she didn't scrub my heels, hardly cleaned up my cuticles...I had to ask her to slow down 3 different times. When it was time to do my mani, she attempted to have me soak my fingers in some very cold water. She later gave me the most rushed and roughest back massage. I was "that girl" in the nail salon, publicly complaining about her service... I usually can't stand those people and I had to be that one. That alone was uncomfortable for me. This girl does NOT need to be providing service to customers at Midas, she completely put a bad taste in my mouth about ever coming back. However, I know next time to avoid her. There is a man that is always there, if you can get him then you will be more than pleased with your service, he is amazing. read more

I love this place! Very relaxing, clean, bright, and full of plants (: I don't really leave reviews but I've been going here since I was 10! Nearly a decade and my mom and aunt have been coming here for much longer. We always come in the summer with my cousin to get our nails done and they are always so accommodating! Wonderful talent here and always friendly. The ladies here are so sweet. Give them a try! read more

The ladies were so nice at this place!! While my nails were soaking they gave me a neck massage!! I have never had this done for a manicure before and it was a great surprise. My gel manicure didn't chip at all and lasted for about 3 weeks. It was actually hard to get off, I probably could of kept it on for another week! I love this place, will definitely be back read more

Went to Midas for the first time today and was so happy with the service I received. My nails look fantastic. Looking so forward to my next visit. read more

While they did an okay job on my gel manicure I have to say they have some very shady business practices along with being completely unfriendly. I went in for a gel manicure/spa pedicure and brought in my SO for a "men's" mani/ped. This should have only cost $70 before tip. They charged us $120! I would not recommend them unless you're looking to get ripped off. read more

I'm sure if we were to dig up the salon handbook it would explicitly list that trash magazines (star, people, US weekly,etc) are a must. Perhaps fancier salon will provide a more upscale magazine...but reading material is nonnegotiable. Unless you Midas Nail Spa. I was horrified to see there were no People Magazines laying about. I was looking forward to relaxing and catching up on the hottest Hollywood breakups and makeups. More gut wrenching still, no music. Just silence peppered with conversation in a language I couldn't understand. The pedicure itself was half assed and rushed. At the end they charged me 1$ for HALF a nail file....half. It's just a dollar, not a huge deal but, If you're going to cut them in half shouldn't they be free at that point? The whole experience was a disappointment. read more

Arrived at two o'clock for a two o'clock appointment and ended up waiting until 2:25 for a very mediocre pedicure to begin. Followed by a less than mediocre fill. Very disappointing and foe two of us, it wad $100 wasted. Poor color selection also. read more

Went for a pedicure (have been looking for a new place since Tahlula's closed). Extremely cramped space. Service started out friendly, but after a few minutes under the dryers we were encouraged to get going - we weren't talking loudly, so I got the impression it was to make room for other guests arriving soon. I asked for a pair of flip flops, as most reputable shops will offer those cheap flimsy ones at no charge - if I'm going to be rushed out, I should at least not have to put my shoes back on yet. We were informed that they only had one pair, but we could buy the nicer ones at a discount - $2 instead of $3. I decided to pass, but was then told I could have a pair for free if I brought them back. Um, ok... One of the employees insisted on putting the flip flops on me herself. I would have preferred to do it myself, but as I pulled my foot away she grabbed it and said, "Let me do it." Then, she promptly smudged the big toenail on the strap of the flip flop. Good thing I don't have a trip to anywhere warm planned soon - since it's January, my $30 smudged toenails will be hiding under socks. Great web design, folks, you really set me up to expect a professional experience. You know that old saying, though ... fool me once, shame on you, fool me twice ... read more
