The vibes were so comfortable and cozyyyyyy !!! Thank you for everything Nia

    Builder gel over natural nails

    I had the best experience at Nia's Nail Nook! It was my first time getting builder gel and it was an amazing experience! Her space was clean and so cute! Nia was so nice and took her time!! She had great attention to detail, even sending me off with a cuticle oil pen. I highly recommend Nia's Nail Nook! There were even drinks and snacks to make me feel comfortable! Overall it was a great experience and I'm happy I found her!

    Nia does amazing nails, uses great products and not only is she talented but is super sweet and professional as well.

    I had my first appointment with Nia yesterday and I'm so happy with how my nails turned out! My nails were slightly damaged from a previous Gel X manicure, so Nia came up with a plan to strengthen them and help them grow out healthy and strong. Her attention to detail really stood out. She made sure every nail and design was just right. She's patient, kind, and professional, and clearly takes a lot of pride in her work. I also love how easy it is to book online. I'll definitely be going back and highly recommend her!

    Nia did amazing on my tap gel, they're perfectly shaped, not too thin/thick & feels sturdy. Her space was extremely clean, she's efficient & very kind. Her attention to detail was exceptional! Can't wait to come back again! Thanks Nia!!

    I had my first appointment at Nia's Nail Nook this week. The studio was very cozy and clean. Nia did an amazing job on my nails. I had a removal of my acrylic, reshaping, and got tap gel. The new shape is perfect. I love the natural look of tap gel. I had a great experience with her and can't wait to go back.

    The nails !!! Honestly, better than the photo inspo

    Came in one day randomly to get rid of my old gel manicure. Called at around 11am and they said…read morethey would be able to attend me at 1pm. I was 10 minutes late because of construction in the area and they still attended me with no problem. Upon stepping into the nail salon, I felt very relaxed and calm despite traffic chaos I just dealt with. They had a wonderful selection of colors, I went with a milky white and love my nails and enjoy my experience. Great Yelp recommendation! This will be my go-to nail spa when I am in San Diego.

    I chose this salon because of its many 5-star reviews. It was a bit more expensive than other…read moreplaces, but I was willing to pay more for a service I'd really enjoy. I took my mom as an early Mother's Day gift, so this experience was important to me. What was supposed to be a relaxing afternoon of getting pampered unfortunately turned into an awkward and uncomfortable situation. I called ahead to ask if they could accommodate two Gel-X manicures and three gel pedicures, and was told yes, so we headed over. Unfortunately, the service didn't meet expectations. My mom showed the manicurist a video of the design she wanted--she even replayed it multiple times--but the process felt rushed from the start. There was no typical manicure prep (no soaking, cuticle care, or massage), just immediate cutting, filing, and application of tips. When the nails were finished, my mom wasn't happy with the design. She didn't ask to start over--just if it could be adjusted or enhanced. The technician responded with attitude, saying she didn't understand what was wanted, despite having seen the reference multiple times. She quickly removed part of the design, made minor changes, and moved on. It became clear the technician had another client waiting and rushed through my mom's service. For a $200 manicure, that's disappointing--especially when the result isn't something the client is happy with. While the pedicure was fine, the overall experience fell short. My mom ended up going to another salon the next day and paying again to have her nails fixed. I work in the service industry myself, so I understand that not every client interaction is easy--but I was always taught to make it right when a guest isn't happy. From a customer service standpoint, this was a big letdown. We weren't difficult or demanding--she simply didn't like the design and wanted help improving it. Next time, if you don't have the time to properly provide a service, don't accept the appointment. Unfortunately, I won't be returning.

The beverages were a great booster to an already extraordinary experience. Julie and Mary took care of my mani and pedi to the best degree. Very efficient in time, friendly, pleasant to talk to, and listened to exactly what I want. The treatment didn't feel rushed at all yet I didn't even feel time drag by. Will definitely be back as my go to place in little Italy. Thank you ladies!

    I recently moved to Little Italy and was looking for a new nail salon. So I booked an appointment…read morewith Mary based on the reviews. Unfortunately, after my experience, I found myself QUESTIONING WHETHER those REVIEWS were actually from customers or FROM FRIENDS and FAMILY just to promote this business and mislead the customers. Mary is sweet and nice, and I have nothing negative to say about her as a person. My experience with the actual manicure was very different from what I expected based on the reviews. The nails were extremely thick, the application was uneven, and there was a significant amount of space between the polish and my cuticles. I pointed out the excessive thickness during the appointment. Mary just wiped them down one more time, smiled, and left them essentially the same. The photos I'm posting were taken the same day, immediately after I got the manicure. This is how the nails looked when I left the salon (!!!) not after several days of wear. The timing made it even more frustrating because I got my nails done on Friday, right before my birthday. By Sunday, just two days later, I had to find another salon and pay again to have the entire set redone. I'm also including photos of what my nails looked like after I had the manicure from Italy Nails & Spa completely redone by another nail technician. Unfortunately, based on my experience, I would NOT recommend Italy Nails & Spa for a manicure. I understand that everyone has different preferences and standards when it comes to nail care and manicure. However, if you expect a clean and nicely finished manicure, I don't think Italy Nails & Spa is likely to meet your expectations. EDIT: I understand that you have a 10-day guarantee, but that's not the manicure I would like to have redone. The issue is not a chip or polish, it's the overall quality of the manicure. Additionally, the salon manager reached out to me privately and said, "We tried to look into your visit, but unfortunately we couldn't find your information without the exact date and time." I provided the exact date and time right away, as I still have the confirmation message from my appointment, but I never heard back from them. I would have appreciated the opportunity to have this addressed properly rather than receiving what feels like a generic ChatGPT response.

    This review is for my boy Ken!!!! Hes really the best tech I love him so much. Everything he does…read moremy nails he gets it soooo on point. I am allergic to gel unfortunately so I dont get to do many fun designs, but Ken is the one tech I've found that can do more than just one color using dip powder: hes done French tip and ombre using dip and always does a fantastic job. If he feels that the nails arent long enough or design feels funky depending on my length of nails, he will always let me know and give me options. I really appreciate that. My nails always last - usually well over a month even with dip. Most nail techs here are great but I did get one person who started putting gel on my toes once despite me reminding them I couldn't get gel. I always stick with Ken and its been smooth sailing ever since. I also had my nails grow soooo long with him and using just dip powder. Highly recommend The salon is refurbished so the place is even nicer than before ! My go to techs would be any of the guys especially Ken, Lucas, Tom and the other gentleman with glasses (I never got his service but he always knows what he's doing).

I got a classic mani/pedi (with gentle removal of gel nail polish to preserve my natural nails) and was there for about an hour. My nails and cuticles still look great a week later and my classic pedi is still holding strong! Parking in this area can be a bit of a challenge but that's really the only downside. I'll definitely be returning and look forward to getting to know the staff more... I'll just ride the bus down 5th to get there to avoid parking issues next time lol
