I took my mother here in May 15th for her bday and Mother's Day. Highly disappointed!! First off if you going to charge ridiculous prices for your services you should be able to accept credit cards with no problem. I paid $180 for my mom and I and they say they only accept cash?!? My mother got a mani/pedi and I only wanted a pedicure. The ladies were really nice but kept insisting on gel although you tell them multiple times you just want a regular polish. Fine I upgrade to gel for my mom and I. The service was not great at all. I paid for the deluxe pedicure and she spent most of her time rubbling my legs with lotion lol. I mean for a $73 pedicure I would expect more but I could have done what she did by myself. The main reason I'm giving them 1 star is bc my mom went there today and asked if they could fix a few nails for her that had gotten chipped. They said they only will fix it within 2 weeks and the 2 weeks is today. For the $$ we spent and for good faith they could have just fixed it. Then my mom would continue to go back and spend more $$. I guess that's not their logic. Plain Freddy!! Don't go to this place. It's overpriced and the services don't live up to their prices. My mom made it clear with them we won't be going back. Terrible! Oh and my gel pedicure is already chipping lol read more

Way over priced. $32 just for gel manicure. Man was super rough while doing acrylics. They don't do what you want. Don't know how to do pedicure. Asked to not have my toes cut too short and now they are uneven and too short. Highly dissatisfied. Don't recommend at all. Won't even be nice enough to admit they over priced and do a small refund. read more

Never going back here. Had my nails done with my daughter. I always go for the gel because it lasts longer but this time, it didn't even last 24 hours. It started peeling after a few hours and now it's all off. This was my last resort nail spa bec i was in a hurry. I gues you cant hurry good service. Very pricey compared to my regular nail salon.Very bad quality service. The guy who did my nails did not even do a good job cleaning my nails. read more

Horrible experience my nails were the worst I've ever had!!!! They were done by kim, acrylic was over my skin.....Horrible horrible horrible!!!!!!!!! They don't even deserve a star...but got a rate one just for the post read more

I love this place. The people are nice and friendly and it is huge. I never had to wait very long and they do a great job on my gel manicures/ pedicures. I like the selections of colors they offer too. They have even stayed open late for me. read more

Worst experience ever! I don't mind paying a lot for my gel mani and pedi ($75), but I expect good quality at that price. The lady who did my pedicure got gel on almost all my cuticles, when she finished and I told them I was unhappy with the way it looked, Mandy came over and rudely yanked off my (leather) flip flop and threw it in the wet tub where my feet had been soaking! I got multiple cuts and all of my finger nails are ridged and still seem unfiled. I very politely asked for them to fix the mistakes and every employee had a rude attitude. I wasn't complaining to get any of my check comped, I was just simply letting them know the service was done very poorly, but they just kept trying to argue with me. Very disappointed at their service and how rude all of the employees were. Still looking for a good nail salon in Manteca. read more

I got eyelash extensions on the left eye the extensions are already falling out I paid $100 for not even two days in they are already falling out it's pissing me off. I'm not going back again. Not worth the money! read more

I'm not one to make a fuss about service, I figure that people sometimes have a bad day. This afternoon I went in for a fill and pedicure. When asked what pedicure I would like I opted for the cheapest one since it is now fall, and I won't be wearing sandals much. The pedicure was less than relaxing, he was going so fast and being very rough. I made a joke to him about how this was supposed to be enjoyable. He laughed it off and proceeded. When he was done and began on my nails I noticed that the polish looked thin and uneven, but I didn't say much. Eventually I mentioned that one of my toes had stuck to the nail and smudged the polish, he did graciously fix it. Had he placed a separator this wouldn't have even been an issue though. My manicure was also less than desirable, while filing my nails he was not paying attention and filed the skin off of my thumb, which has now left a sore, along with other fingers from using the drill and being sloppy. After I was done I went to pay and noticed that I was charged for a more expensive pedicure along with 5 extra dollars for who knows what. When I questioned the manager she called the man over and he repeatedly told me that I asked for that specific pedicure, I told him 3 times that I did not and he wouldn't listen and walked away. The manager told me since that was the pedicure I received (which it was not) that I had to pay for it. I was a little upset and told her so, as this is not the first time I have been overcharged there. She wouldn't budge. So I paid it, and told her that I would not be returning. Mind you, I have been coming here for about 8 years. They lost a valued customer today and as I was walking out the door she yelled "I'm sorry".. somehow I doubt that! read more

I went in for a girls day with a couple friends. And we got pedicures! I went with the hot stone pedicure and I am so glad I did! It was so relaxing! read more

Used to like this place but went to get fill and gel and three chipped right away. Went to get them fixed and manager rushed me through and wouldn't listen to me. Fixed the three nails but sure enough the next day not only did the gel chip the nails started to break. Went back again and manager was EXTREMELY rude. Said no cash back but finally after much bickering and.him telling me it must be something wrong with my nails he gave me half back and told me to get out. I will never go there again!!! read more

They were ok the few times I went there, but nothing out of the ordinary. They are fast, as they do your feet and hands at the same time. This is good if you are in a hurry, but not whe you just want to relax. read more

Queen bee helped me with my hang nail. Thanks queen bee.

I will never come back, i came with a friend because this is the one she comes to and i must say im very disappointed. Its way overpriced for poor quality work. My pedicure was $48 and only lasted about 15 mins i could have done that at home. My nails are soo thick and clumpy from the acrylic because she didn't shave them down enough. I will now stick to what i know and keep going to the place i usually do. read more

I came here for the first time last summer with a friend, which loves it. I love the environment and the pedicures. Their chairs massage your back and they give good massages. I did get a manicure w/o nails and it was nice. They are a bit pricey but worth the cost. read more

I called in ahead of time to see if they would do a male walk-in arm and back wax. They gave me the green light. I was greeted promptly at the entrance by the gentleman host. I had Jeny work with me. She took her time and made sure to do it properly. The price was fair and wasn't pushy at all about other services. She informed me of all that she does and simply asked me once if I was interested. I will be coming here once again! read more

NEVER A GOOD EXPERIENCE HERE. I have gave this place several chances and have finally decided to stop wasting my money here. The customer service is horrible, I'm also not sure how sanitary this place is. it is overpriced for a less then mediocre job. I have tried just about all the nail salons in town and this one always disappoints me and my wallet. It's one of those places where you feel like there whispering about you to there co workers when they walk away. I was also reading previous reviews and they were harassing a review instead of learning from a mistake. That just shows what kind of place this is. read more

This place is a bit pricey but, you definitely get what you're paying for, especially if you see "tu"(like the #2) not sure of her spelling! She is sooo nice and very attentive to detail! read more

Great place, most of the employees are very friendly and professional. Kayla was the best nail artist but she recently moved. I had been going to her for four years. But Ana and Mandy are great too! I usually get a gel manicure and theirs usually a lasts me 2-3 weeks. Some places when they aren't as good with technique it starts chipping after a few days. But not at Queen Bee. Love them! read more

First time coming here, needed a full set and pedicure. A little pricey but overall satisfied with the outcome. Only thing I didn't like was when they cut my toe and nail :( read more

It is my favorite place in Manteca. I really like Kayla. She does a great job.

Fantastic pedicure this is my go to place now they are so friendly and do an excellent job and take you as a walk-in really quick thank you for your good service read more

I will not be coming back. I asked for a gel manicure and paid big bucks for a gel manicure, but that is not what I received even though I chose a nail color from the alleged gel nail section. Every single nail chipped within 24 hours. What a huge waste of money. I won't ever go back. read more

Very disappointed, beautiful shop but that is all. My manicurist was very rude and gave me cuts on all my nails when filing. Totally ignored what he did, no antiseptic. Work area was not clean read more

I walked in wanting a gel manicure on my real nails. It was busy because yesterday was a holiday- Presidents' Day. The lady I was given was in a rush because it was busy. She rushed and was multitasking while I was sitting in her chair as a client. I'm not complaining. I understand that she was spread thin but today( the next day) my nail chipped. I blame her rushing for this. My nail had chipped a little near my cuticle on one finger because she had painted over my skin and it had lifted. I wanted her to simply put another clear topping coat so it would seal the lifted piece. I want them to at least look nice for two weeks. When I went in she acted like she couldn't see it and she acted as if I was being over dramatic by her body language. Hesitantly she agreed to put clear on all of them but while my nails where under the UV lamp drying she goes over to the group in the back and "TALKS SHIT," I know I can't understand but you know when someone is talking shit about you even if you can't understand!! I'm furious! I paid $32 plus a $5 tip for a gel manicure that lasted 10 minutes! And obviously it sucked!!! I'm pissed how she acted when I came back. I will never go back!!! read more

My mom and me love this place. Great people who work there and they do an amazing job! They treat me like family every time im in there. They remember my name and always ask how my kids are doing. Its in a great location near starbucks, jamba juice and restaurants. Perfect for a girls day out. read more

I got the worst pedi-mani at this salon. They finished both my manicure and pedicure in 35 min. I like to relax when I'm having a pedicure,at this salon while someone is working on your feet ,someone is working on your nails. Horrible . Plus charged me 86.00 , they forgot to tell me they charge 5.00 for taking off gel polish. Does anybody have a good nail salon in manteca. read more

Horrible! Will never go back. Bad customer service and poor quality of work. Got a fill and a pedicure (which they insisted on doing at the same time) by two men who were very rough and kept insisting I get gel. read more

Horrible !!! Don't know the lady name but got a full set she didn't ask what shape I wanted . Just started on my nails . Didn't show me options . I told her I wanted short coffin end up getting fat thick lumpy square shape . Not happy at all what a waste of money . Nails are crooked read more

They rushed on my manicure! I had a bad experience there! They broke my cousins toenail..

Unfortunately I will not be coming back. They charged me $35 for a fill when they told me it would be $20, it came to $45 because I got gems. The gems were horribly put on, not at all what I wanted; I asked if he would fix them and he told me he couldn't. I honestly feel I should have refused to pay, or at least not pay such a steep price. Also, my nails are burgundy and he decided it would be a good idea, without consulting me, to put 4 gems on there that are purple. Extremely disappointed and a waste of my money. In addition, I did in fact, show him a picture of what I wanted and did not do the job at all. I spoke up after I saw what he was doing and he said he couldn't fix it. Also expect to be harassed by the store if you leave a complaint. They said shame on me instead of trying to be nice and resolve the situation. read more

the older ladies are rude. like how can you be so rude to a 9 year old little girl?? my little cousin was supossed to get her toes done and which they did not do her toes, they let 5 other ladies go. read more

Did not get to relax was finished in 35 mins and got charged 65 for a Mani n pedi. When i asked for one nail to get more sparkles he said it was to late. The other guy who did my pedicure was being rough and can tell he didn't want to be there. Will never go again read more

I have been going to this spa twice a month for full service nail and pedicure services and had been extremely pleased until the response that I received for unsatisfactory service. For a service that typically takes just over an hour turned into an over two hour service with multiple mistakes. Within an hour of leaving the spa I noticed that my nails had air bubbles and that the polish turned colors. I immediately called the spa to report the problem and advised that I was leaving town for the weekend and left my name and number for a manager to return my call so that I could have the color corrected upon my return. I didn't receive a call back and called back today to ask for a simple corrective polish change, I was told that I would have to keep returning to the salon until the person who created the problem was on schedule so that she could learn from her mistakes and that no one else would correct a simple polish change without an additional charge. I, as well as multiple family members, spend a significant amount of money for services on a monthly basis; however, due to the lack of concern for overall customer satisfaction I will no longer support this business. read more

I've gone to Queen Bee for years and they've been pretty good. Clean place. Nice people. This last Easter, I had a basic manicure done. They pressure you to get gel. I don't want that. I had no appointment - so they had this man do my nails (which is no problem). He sat down and smelled of cigarette smoke. Not very friendly. He started with cuticles using the tools. I turn away to look at my granddaughter and next thing I know he's using a dremel tool on my cuticles. He said I had too much skin on cuticles. Consequently, three weeks later, my nails have a "trench" where the dremel was used. When I complained to the man at the counter about the short manicure - no oil used on cuticles, etc., he told me to talk to the manicurist. I told him I could do the same thing at home. So I went back to the manicurist who was not helpful. read more

I've gave this place several chances and not ONCE have I liked any of the 3 times I have came. They are expensive and rush the work to much. The ladies seem like they judge you in their language and none of them are ever smiling. Overall just not a very welcoming place and my nails are always messy :( I'm a senior in highschool and have a part time job and refuse to spend my money at this place ‍ read more

My pedicure was great! Probably because I spent more and upgraded it. I was also getting nails put on for my daughter's wedding. I've only had my nails done one other time and it was long ago. I didn't upgrade the manicure. Heck, it was already costing me $68! When the guy did my nails he was rude and rough. By the time I walked out of there I had ten, YES TEN cuts on my cuticals. He was like a madman w/the nail file. He totally cut into my thumb nail on both sides. I yanked my hand back as it hurt like the Dickens and was a bloody mess. He pulled my hand back and said, 'Oh, I made you bleed. Oh well'. Wrong but not having my nails done before I didn't know what to expect. I went out of town for the wedding and was miserable the whole time. My cuticles hurt, especially my thumb! As soon as I got home I went back in to get my money back. Of course the guy at the front desk wouldn't do anything but he did get another nail tech to come up and talk to me. The couple that did my nails/tos were not there that day. I explained why I was there and showed her my thumb. I had my money back in my hand within a minute. I'll file a complaint w/the state board next. I do have to say the lady that did my pedicure was amazing! She was thorough, polite and vey hygenic-something I was watching for. Needless to say I will never go back there. Beware! read more

I have been to the Queen Bee a few times and was impressed at first but believe that the quality of their services has faded over time. I had the spa pedicure ($32 middle range one) the last time, and the person who did it hardly scrubbed the bottom of my feet at all. The massage was weak. I decided to try a new nail salon where I got a mani/pedi for $32. Their regular pedicure is $22 and was better than Queen Bee's middle range one! Very small and friendly...am not going to list their name so it doesn't get overcrowded!!!! read more

Do not go here everytime the price is different and you have to watch to not get screwed,also always changing staff and the woman did a pedicure and cut my nails so short I developed ingrown nails that were very painful,do not go here read more

My nails came out like crap.

I was looking to treat myself to a mani-pedi and searched yelp to see which was the best!. From the minute I walked in I was treated very kind and friendly. I too was cautious after reading other Yelp reviews but for me this was a top of the line experience! John gave the best foot massage and did a wonderful job on both my mani and pedi! It was relaxing, they offer you something to drink, turn on the massage chair if you want. I was not in a hurry and don't want to be when I have something like this done. It is a special treat for me and I want to savor it. They did get me seated immediately but didn't rush me through anything. I opted for the gel polish on my fingernails and was very happy with the results. John even matched it as close as possible to my toes, which didn't get the gel polish. I had a little polish bump on one of my nails and John immediately took care to fix that! I would recommend this place to anyone and ask for John....he does a great job! read more
