I'm definitely a fan of this place. The spa chairs are nice, and they do a great relaxing pedicure. I've gotten gel manicures and regular manicures. Sometimes they are a little rushed and can miss a few things. I've had gel stuck to my skin which caused the gel to lift early. But overall this is a great place, just check everything before you leave and don't be afraid to ask them to fix something. They have always been very open to the feedback. This time I got a powder dip mani - loved it. When I would do the gel, the light would burn my nailbeds (?so weird) every time I would put them in the little light box. So this time I opted to try the powder dip, she did a great job, they look and feel amazing. I'm not sure of the lady's name, but wow, she really spent time shaping and making sure nothing was stuck to my skin. Highly recommend. The cost for this dip powder mani was $33 (my nails are short), this didn't include any lotion or massaging of the hands or arms (not sure if it was supposed to or not?). read more

After nearly ten years with this wonderful nail shop, I have to take the time to compliment the he owners on the amazing service I have recieved. The owner, Mai, is very professional, yet warm and friendly. she works very hard to satisfy every customer and knows every returning client by name. Her staff are eqtally amazing, including Kelly who does the best pedicure I've ever had! Happy Holidays akd best wishes to you all! read more

It's really sad that I am doing this but I will never return here again. I "walked in" with no appointment for the first time in 20+ years of going here. I decided I'd try whoever I got. So this last time I went in I got Mai because she was available. I thought that was good but it was Not! I had forgotten about the past. Many years ago I used to go to her...she reduced her own client base to work less when she was trying to get pregnant with her 2nd child. This is how long I'd been going there. But I was glad to try someone new because Mai takes SO LONG to do your nails. She is the owner with her husband. She continuously stops to answer phones and manage the salon. On this appointment her husband stepped in and worked on my nails too getting the product off my nails and prepping. He normally doesn't do nails there but Yes I have seen him work on clients when they are busy. She came back to do my nails but not only did she take forever! But she really acts like she doesn't like me. I don't know what I ever did for that. But she has always had that attitude towards me. This visit was the LAST. The reason I'm not going back is not only for the personal feeling I get from her. But she did a Very Bad Job on my nails! They started chipping and breaking (dip powder) within a day! So I went back in when I had time after a few days to show her. Instead of starting over or refunding me she filed at them and added clear acrylic to the color dip powder to try to fix them. And then polished over it! And then she argued with me about the chrome color that I had on. I knew she had more powders in another container where mine was from but she didn't want to go get it. I had paid around $65+tip for this by the way!! Because I had paid extra for Chrome finish. Again! Her attitude towards me!...was like I was a nuisance to her, that's how she made me feel!! I really didn't matter. The nails fell apart again within a week!!! I have been trying out other places since, and I "walk in", and they do a great job and they last usually three weeks! No chipping no breaking or lifting. And they are nice to me!!! I have to give credit to a few at Nails Boutique. I do love several girls there Quinn, Tina, Kelly and Linda. Thank you to them. But the service here has really gone downhill. I'm done going to Nails Boutique. This review took me a long while to write and post, maybe a year, but I don't feel I deserved the way they treated a very long term customer. read more

We always have a great experience at this nail salon! Everyone is quite detailed and efficient!

First time here as a walk in on a Wednesday afternoon. First impressions was that the spa is very clean and bright and comfortable! I was helped right away and they were able to seat me within 5 minutes of me walking in. I had dip powder nails on and decided to get a regular gel mani. The removal of the dip+ gel French tips came out to 43$ (not including tip). Kelly did my nails and was so friendly. I think she did a wonderful job and made plain white tips look so clean and elegant! Will definitely be coming back. read more

I been coming to this place for 3 years, I love the quality of their material. Unfortunately my last visit was a horrible experience, I had an apt at 12 noon the owner made me wait 34 min. (12:35) same thing with my previous appointment) he had me waiting for 20 min, he usually charges me 35 for a full set with gel color. I got overcharged 47 for this set and he was so rushed my nails came out with ugly bumps, his service was extremely poor and rude, he would be answering phone calls (like 5 phone calls) and put my nail's work on hold on top of those 35 min I waited on the beginning. Definitely my last visit to this place. I hope he focuses on hi clients and put quality. read more

Cute salon. Good service. They did a great job on my pedicure and it lasted a long time. Very clean. Prices are expensive but worth it.

I absolutely love this nail salon! Christine is phenomenal & does such an amazing job. She takes her time to make sure everything's perfect & checks with me to make sure the shape is just right. The salon is wonderful: super clean, great spa chairs & I've never had to wait. I always call ahead to schedule with Christine but I'd be happy to wait if she wasn't available right away, she's just the best. I highly recommend Nails Boutique & especially Christine! read more

The first nail boutique that came up on Yelp. I'm glad I came here though....service was excellent! both Holly & Kelly were the best for my mani pedi.....massages were on point. The music was nice to listen to which I really appreciated " free falling" one of my all time fave songs ...I feel it's important to have chill music. If I lived around here I would definitely make this my nail boutique. read more

It's my first time here and the lady didn't do a great job at my nails, I got French tip and it's uneven, one of my nails is crooked and so she said she'd give me a discount on it. There are air bubbles from the gel x. The pedicure was good but I'm upset and won't be coming back read more

This review is for Amy! I've been coming to this place for about a year now and have never left disappointed! Amy is amazing and she really puts the time and effort into making sure I'm satisfied with the results! I always get compliments and people ask to see my nails all the time,lol. This is a bit of a far drive for me since I'm from OC, but I feel like it's worth it since I can go three weeks without a fill and my nails won't break or chip. TLDR, if you're looking for a nice place to get your nails done, but don't wanna starve until your next paycheck, then come here! read more

I have been going to Mai, the owner, at Nail Boutique for over 25 years. I love her and the shop. I have referred many, many people to them and we all have the same experiences! If you have a problem they are willing to fix it. Always helpful and polite. Most of her girls work there for years and I think that speaks to the type of person Mai is and many of the customers have been coming for years. Again people don't do that if you treat them badly. I saw a bad review which prompted me to write. My experience has always been 100% and they deserve credit especially Mai. Thank you Mai. read more

Another great nail place! Oh thank goodness there are a few good ones and in areas that are convenient to me. Thanks to a friends referral, I came in to get a pedicure. The layout with the chairs in an outward facing circle is so appealing. Different from the usual set-up i've come to expect. The service was great and the lady who worked on me paid close attention to making my nails look perfect. As for polish choices, well it wasn't as extensive as other places, but the variety was still good and I love the color I chose. read more

3rd visit and will be my last. Manicurist tried to hard sell a more expensive pedi- twice! Then was digging under the center of my toe nail and I jumped so she decided not to bother with any of my toenails. When I asked her to look for ingrown she said "you jumped so I quit". Icing on the cake- the owner is glued to Fox News as they talk about arming teachers. #DontNeedToSpendMyMoneyHere Lily's the best. My feet feel wonderful. I will ask for her from now on! Thanks Lily read more

UNSANITARY! I've come here quite a few times and seen Cathy and she is amazing. Very clean, very kind and very good at her job. The last time I went there Cathy was not there. I was instead given a tech named Lily. Lily sat down to give me my pedicure and immediately got to work. The first thing I noticed was that she had a little bin on the bottom of her cart that she was grabbing things from. I'm not used to this as most nail places grab tools from a sealed bag that's been sterilized. Anyways, I look past this and thought I was being overly anxious. My first mistake. Going forward she began to clean up my toes, which is a lot of work because I have quite a bit of dead skin buildup. After she cleans them up she pulls out a plastic nail brush from this bin, dips it in the water and brushes my toes with it. This brush is not a disposable brush and there is absolutely no way to properly sanitize this brush either, to which again I stayed quiet but this is when I began to get frustrated with the cleanliness. After she used it on my toes she placed it back in this little bin on the bottom of her cart. The biggest issue came when it was time to remove my callus. She put the callus remover on and then covered my foot with a cut plastic produce bag. As I'm looking at this bag it looks wrinkled, torn and already used. I continue to inspect it and realize that it 100% was already used! Her friend noticed me looking at it and touching it and she said something to Lily and Lily quickly removed it...but she didn't dispose of it, she instead folded it up nicely and placed it back in the bottom of her cart in this same little used tool bin!!! By then I had had enough but I had callus remover all over my feet so she needed to get that off. She pulled out a metal cheese grater looking tool and started to shave my feet! These tools are illegal in California! She finished shaving down my feet and began to put lotion on me when I stopped to look at the bottom of my feet. I realized that she had left tons of dead skin and uneven skin all over the bottom of my foot. I asked her to please fix it with the disposable scrubber and she didn't understand a word I said. Her friend again intervened and told her what was wrong, so she grabbed the disposable scrubber and finished cleaning the call the best she could. After all was said and done and it was time to paint my toes she tried to put used toe spreaders between my toes instead of using paper towels like the other staff had used before! I finally said NO and she finished my toes and I left. I will not be ever returning to this establishment as I witnessed first hand unsanitary and unsafe practices. Absolutely unacceptable. read more

I've gone here twice now and it's been very busy both times. Prices are reasonable and there seems to always be a lot of staff working. However, I had a couple issues here and don't plan to come back: 1. I called ahead and asked if they had availability at a certain time. They said yes and despite that, I still waited 15 minutes once there. 2. The individual that did my manicure counted out her tip from another customer in front of me and kept counting it (multiple times) rather than looking at it after she finished my nails. 3. The same individual was just plain rude. When I said I would need help putting my flip flops on (after a pedicure since my manicure was drying), they said the pedicure person would come back.... but she never did, so I sat in the chair until I felt my nails were done and left. 4. ... my big toe got infected. I can handle rude customer service maybe if they do a good job and the price is right. But unclean tools that cause an infection? I won't be back. read more

I have been coming here for awhile, but the past two times have been not so good. This time I got a gel pedicure. The technician used a drill to take off the gel completely without using any type of acetone to help soften it.. so she drilled into my toenails making them brittle and cut two of my toes. Filed unevenly. She left behind gel and still proceeded to put on cuticle remover then didn't even push back my cuticles all of the way. The gel polish was put on in such a rush it covers the sides of my toe skin and there are random specks of it on my skin everywhere. It looks horrible and for 50$ I would've expected better. Never again! By the end of it I am left with old gel still under the new gel and cuticles are still there, jagged edges of the gel sticking up and all of my smaller toes have gel overlapping way onto my skin. read more

Well to say I had a good experience here would be a lie. I went in just for a full set and basic pedicure. I had a very simple ombré nail design I wanted with an almond shape. After spending almost 3.5 hours in the salon and having my finger nails redone around 5 times I finally just said fine and left with a basic style and smiley faces that aren't even designed well and for some reason have a brown spot under the top coat that won't come off. The shape is very uneven and after a really long experience and day I was super upset. I told my nail tech multiple times i was really happy with them but after that long i finally just left. I have been here before and was somewhat satisfied but this trip to the salon really ruined my opinion on Nails Boutique and Spa :( now I have to pay for a new set somewhere else after paying $60+ on a set here read more

All of the nail technicians are great, but I highly recommend V for nail design and Cathy to address ingrown nails.

I hate to leave a bad review. I tried this place several times, and each time I left more and more unhappy. I think they probably have some excellent nail techs but the three I had over a few months were far from satisfactory. I get a very basic acrylic nail, and each time I left with uneven shapes on both hands (thick in spots, bumpy acrylic, nails different shapes.) Also, I feel they are trying to be as quick as possible to the point of being lazy and giving bad service- when I pointed out that one of my nails was lifting, she kept saying "no it's fine." I had to insist that she pay attention to that nail, and it popped right off. It's like they don't care if you have rotten nails. The one time I got all new acrylic here, the lady took forever- she was not gentle when she removed the old nails, and they were a mess! I've never seen someone use so much powder. It was even under my nail. Terrible. The system to pick gel polish colors is really weird- it's on a rolling board down low but the colors are all disorganized. Several colors I wanted they were out of, even though the sample was on the board. It seems like they have watered down a lot of their polish because it would run all over the place into my cuticle- and two coats would usually be too thin. I would regularly ask for a third coat. My last experience there was the worst- I had to keep arguing with the nail tech over the shape of my nails. She told me my fingers were crooked, which made my nails crooked. If that was true then how come I used to get a great acrylic set done at my old salon!? When you go up front to pay, they hover over you, and it's not cheap, it's like the only time they seem interested in you as a customer. Altogether, I don't think this is a happy place to go get your nails done unless you have a specific tech. Cleanliness is moderate. 2 stars because I got a nice pedicure here once. read more

At first I never thought to get my nails done professionally, but was I in shock! I came across Nails Boutique & Spa from scrolling through Yelp and I am utterly impressed.

I have been coming here for YEARS and I think I have finally had it. They used to be great. I'd find someone I like and stick with them but seems like there is a lot turnover as of late. My frustration actually comes from wait times. Appt or no appt - doesn't matter. They never get me in on time. I walked in today and had to wait so long the water got cold... twice! I would have left but catching a flight this afternoon and my nails desperately need attention. My last girl left, so I took 1st available. After 40 min I am finally attended and I can tell she will not be thorough enough. So I guess the quality is hit and miss. Sophie, and a few others, are great but with the "misses" and the wait times, I'm done. As I sit here writing this, I am listening to a customer complain to the owner about her wait and she has an appt. Hate to look elsewhere as this place is walking distance from home but...... time to go. read more

Great place to get your nails done. Lovely selection of colors with regular polish, gel and dip powder. Lisa has been doing my nails and she's amazing. Make sure to schedule ahead of time as the salon gets busy. Walk-ins are welcome, however there is a chance you will wait 5-10 minutes. You'll likely get seated right away so you can be comfortable while you wait. The owner is super helpful and respectful and wants to make sure you get exactly what you want!

I've been coming to the Nails Boutique for 12 years now - back then they only occupied half of the current space. The facility now is b-e-a-utiful, and I'm so happy I'm back in the area and can become a regular again. The entire operation is very clean, efficient and friendly. The place definitely gets packed on weekeds; if you have a preference for a specific time or person be sure to call ahead. My mother and I have a standing appointment every other Sunday with our favorite technicians... this Saturday I didn't even pause in the doorway before they'd waived by over to my chair and got the pedicure bath bubbling. If you're into gel polish, like I am, they have a vast selection. Check out the Perfect Match line, which has matching "regular" polish for your toes. The emphasis there seems to be on purchasing the gel lines, so if you're looking to pick one of their colors you might find yourself wanting more - doesn't hurt to pop a backup color in your bag before you head out. read more

My mom is a regular and I come here with her from time to time when I'm in town. The place isn't cheap but you won't walk out of here crying about how expensive it was either. The last time I came here it was my three sisters and my mom. I paid for a pedicure for myself and my sister (it was her first one ever- I was so proud). For the two pedicures, extended massage, paraffin for the both of us and a nail design for me it was $74 plus tip. Like I said, not cheap, but $37 each isn't bad and they take their time when they are working on you. Our massages were about 15 minutes and were awesome. When it came to my nail design, my chick made sure that I was happy with what she did. She wasn't 100% positive what I meant when I explained what I wanted so she asked other techs just to make sure she did it right. I really appreciated that she went that far to make sure she did what I wanted instead of just saying, "Okay" when she didn't understand and do whatever she wanted. Plus, it's clean which is the most important part! read more
